Rofl @ Sony. Given how it links to the Japanese page, I wonder if this wasn't just a really quick hack for the English page because they didn't know/care about English well enough.

The Gameboy CPU, on its own, can have a max ROM size of 32K. Some Gameboy ROMs are up to 2MB. It's really not that hard to get around limits like that.

Heck, look at NES... Games like Super Mario Bros 3 went far beyond the capabilities it would have had on its own.

Well, people do turn themselves in. He probably realized it was a mistake and that they would realize it soon enough, and he'd be in a LOT less trouble going back on his own than trying to take advantage of it. But then, someone convicted of rape doesn't sound like the kind of person who would do that...

I think he meant the music data only specifies what notes to play, not what instruments to use. Knowing how Rare is with music I wouldn't be surprised.

You might be able to do it by making a custom block that lags the game (run a big delay loop) and having Mario stand on it at the end.

Posted on 03-02-05 07:43 AM, in The timer... Link
I know right next to the timer's value in RAM (one byte before or after) there's a frame-counter byte, which counts the number of frames before the timer is decremented. (Can be anything from 0-127.) If you looked for writes to this when decrementing the timer (IE anything that isn't just decrementing the frame counter) you should be able to find its initial value. Put in something bigger, and the timer slows down. (Though if you put in anything above 0x80, it speeds way up, because the counter's signed for some reason. )

I imagine it was a lot like booting Windows XP off 14 disks. Had to use the recovery system to fix this computer in school, and it wouldn't boot off a CD. Not only that but we had to reboot like 4 times during the process. Not fun! (Why couldn't they just put CD-ROM drivers on a disk instead of the entire program? )

Posted on 03-02-05 10:43 AM, in Mozilla/Firebird and File Association problems Link
This is really two different problems, but no sense making two threads for them.

1) On certain dialogs in Mozilla and Firebird, such as Bookmark This Tab Group and the e-mail password prompt, the text boxes won't respond to left clicks. I can right-click to bring up the menu but I can't click them or type in them. I've managed to get around this by typing the text elsewhere, copying it, right-clicking and pasting it, but it's quite an annoying procedure. Also sometimes when a page is done loading, it goes back to the last one as if I'd hit Back, except the Forward button remains grayed out.

2) I had Textpad add an 'Open With Textpad' option to various files' menus, but when I click it, it only opens Textpad and doesn't actually open the file. I suspect the problem is just a bad path, but I can't edit it because it doesn't appear in the file associations. Similarly, Hex Workshop adds a Hex Edit option to all files, and I want this to be the default action for .bin files, but it's not there either.

Posted on 03-02-05 05:01 PM, in free() crashes program Link
This is an odd one... free() seems to be crashing my program with certain-size memory blocks.

First, I open a file and allocate some memory:
OutputFile = fopen(OutputFileName, "wb+");
[...]
OutputFileData = malloc(OutputSize);


Next, write some stuff into the memory, and dump it into the file:
OutputFileData[OutPos] = InputFileData[RawPtr];
[...]
fwrite(OutputFileData,1,OutputSize,OutputFile); //Write the output
fclose(OutputFile);


Finally, free the memory:
free(OutputFileData);

The program runs, and the file output works fine, but it crashes at the free() statement. It's a console program, so none of that Windows API stuff. The strangest part, though, is that it doesn't crash every time. Various applications produce output files of 44 bytes, 51200 bytes and 100878 bytes. It only crashes with 51200, and does so every time. (Meanwhile the file itself is 100% intact.)

[edit] Interesting... The problem seems to be related to printf(). When the program is in debug mode it prints various extra information, as well as initializing the memory to a known value (which isn't required, but helps to detect when too much is being output). With debug mode off, it doesn't crash, but I tried leaving it on and commenting out each debug mode statement one by one, and it still crashed. So somehow the problem must be related to multiple printf() statements?

BTW, the code used to initialize the memory:

if(DebugMode)
{
for(i = 0; i < OutputSize; i++)
{
OutputFileData[ i ] = 0x69;
}
}

*kicks code tag* Stop eating my freakin sig!

Hmm, that seems to have been the problem. (Had a for loop writing to it without checking if it was at the end. ) Though I don't see why it would only happen in debug mode, the loop executes regardless. (The only thing debug mode does besides a bunch of printf()s is filling the memory block with a known value, and I triple-checked that there wasn't a problem there.) Or for that matter, why it would run fine until I try to free it.

Yeah, I got it. Though another, presumably simple problem arises. How do I open a file in binary mode without deleting it? Using wb+ deletes the old file; I want to modify the file instead, or create one if there isn't one there already.

I always thought you couldn't (or at least shouldn't) write before the end of the file with a. And fseek() doesn't help much when just opening the file deletes it.
