Custom animated tile support really should've been added to the overworld.

I beg to differ. You really only need that much RAM if you're playing the latest, greatest games or working with large files. For the average user, especially one on a budget, 256MB is still perfectly fine. Heck, my main computer only has 192MB, and the last time the page file was accessed was in January.

Anyway!

Uh oh.

May I suggest this one instead? Awesome CPU, not-so-crappy onboard video (though you should still get a separate card), and still within your price range. Tasty!

Ooh, Street Fighter II? You could help me figure out how to enable the game's debug mode, if it still exists. There's all sorts of text left in the ROM.

I'll post my notes, if I can find them...

Posted on 02-17-06 06:46 AM, in SMW - Seperate GFX for Luigi... Link
Heheh, funny, I was actually working on a way to switch Mario's tiles a couple of days ago. What are the odds?

Anyway, what I did was locate the code that copies Mario's decompressed tiles from RAM to VRAM each frame, and changed it to copy uncompressed tiles from ROM instead. This may even be the same method SMAS+SMW uses, as it doesn't require a lengthy DMA transfer. Of course, there's more to swapping player sprites than that (all I've done is change some addresses), but it's a start.

One HUGE benefit of having ROM-based player tiles is that it frees up nearly 24K of RAM between $7E2000-$7E7BFF...

Yes indeed. You just write a 17-bit RAM address ($00000-$1FFFF, or $7E0000-$7FFFFF) to $2181-$2183, and then DMA to $2180.

Thanks for the votes, guys, but I must say this is one of the most destructive, disrespectful, and ugliest threads I have seen in quite some time. Some of you guys should really be ashamed of yourselves. I thought the SMW hacking community was better than this.

I'll give this thread until tomorrow night to improve. If I see anymore hateful comments, it's getting trashed.

I had an old Intellimouse Optical that would do that. I upgraded to a newer version (same mouse), and it stopped.

If you can, try to borrow another mouse from someone for a while (or buy a cheap one you can easily return), and see if it does the same thing.

theres no way to transfer from a-bus to a register on the b-bus that in turn writes to the a-bus.

i know zsnes allows it, but it will break your code on the real thing, so just dont use it.
Oooookay...then what in the world are those registers good for? Seems silly to allow WRAM access from a PPU register when you can't even use DMA.

I have to dispute this one. When I use a monitor running at 60Hz, I can quite clearly see the refresh in my peripheral vision, and it gives me a nasty headache. It looks like black bands running down the screen really, really fast. However, once I turn the refresh rate up to 75Hz or higher, the flicker disappears, as do my headaches. I have always been able to tell if someone is running at 60Hz without even opening the monitor menu/display properties, and I doubt this 100% success rate is "all in my head."

I honestly believe some people's vision runs at a higher "framerate" than others. A friend of mine can recognize 60Hz just as well as I can (our hearing also seems to be more sensitive than normal, particularly to high-pitched electronic noises, like CRT hum), whereas my mother would be perfectly fine running an ancient monitor at 56Hz.

If it's "all in our head," why do monitor manufacturers even allow higher refresh rates?

I can honestly say without a doubt that Microsoft uses the cheapest microswitches possible in their mouse buttons. I've owned two Intellimouse Opticals and one Basic (ball) mouse, and all three deteriorated to the point where I couldn't click and drag something without dropping it at least once, unless I held the button REALLY hard.

Are you sure the Win98 CD is bootable? I'm pretty sure mine isn't (although it is the upgrade version)...

Your best bet would be to make a Win98 startup floppy on another machine, boot from that (make sure you choose "start computer with CD-ROM support"), then switch to the CD and run SETUP.EXE. That's how I've always done it.

Posted on 02-22-06 08:15 AM, in uh... help? Link
Do you know what chipset the board is running? I have an MSI board with a VIA KT400A chipset, and apparently they have all sorts of terrible PCI timing issues. I experienced frequent, unexplained lockups until I replaced my Sound Blaster PCI512 (based on the Live! chipset, which doesn't get along with VIA hardware) and installed a PCI latency patch, which is supposed to crank a few chipset registers down to "sane" values. If you're running a VIA chipset, try searching for "george breese pci latency" on Google. The patch is rather old, though, and might not work on newer chipsets.
