Yes/no. When I said that it's unfortunately slow on my old PC, I just meant that my PC is too slow to play the game smoothly, so I couldn't really enjoy playing it. But that's just my local problem, nothing wrong with the game (some commercial PSX titles are also running slow on my PC, depends on h...

Unfortunately it's running rather slow on my old PC, even in 320pixel mode it seems to require a lot of unneccessary rendering. For example, in the "CAUSE YOU OBVIOUSLY SUCK!!!" screen, it's clearing the background thrice. Do u mean this screen? http://imageshack.com/a/img838/3707/1yqi.pn...

Shendo's right. If u want to know how it looks like on real hardware, you either change your ePSXe's gpu plugin resolution to 320x240 or you continue to use no$psx. Btw, this is somewhat related... Star Ocean 2 had in-game anti-aliasing for character sprites which made them very scalable friendly. I...

as a 4/8/or 16-bit image?

wait a minute... there are only two colors in your image o_O

For a 2 color B & W image

Dude, just paint it white and use code to change the color into anything u want... really

a PSF file, not that i know of... but u can use PSFLab to revert (uncompress) a PSF back into a PSX EXE that can run on real hardware. A SEQ/VH/VB general purpose player is totally possible (and quite easy) to make :) -Do u want one? I extract SEQs and VABs all the time from uncompressed PSF files f...

My suggestion to you is don't use GsSortBg at all. It's so CPU-Intensive that it's not even worth it. Instead, use GsSortSprite and make your own Background tile function with it. You'll be much happier u did, trust me.

Super Mario Bros PSX!?
...Tell me more

oh yeah, almost forget... Greetings ^_^
Nice to hear that you're Studying Computer Science in New York. Good luck to you. Hope you do great things

simple, turn off gawd damm transparency. problem solved.

thanks for the heads up on that ^_^ I guess my dreams of making an ACD pc engine game are going to have to wait... -_- ( Damn you, huC, to HELL!!! )

dude, that pc engine CD /Arcade card tech demo is totally awesome! How hard is coding for arcade card usage? Did you use huC? if not, what... straight asm? I must know. I really want to make a pc engine game that utilizes the arcade card, like sapphire. any info would help. thanks/

No, it does work.

GsSortSprite(&tim3, ot, 0);
GsSortSprite(&tim2, ot, 0);
GsSortSprite(&tim1, ot, 0);

^works. tim3 gets drawn on top. tim2 gets drawn down one. tim1 gets drawn down one more. (That's the way i do it anyway)

Well, i use to have one big exe but it was getting too big for memory to hold, so I decided to split it up into separate exes so I could program each boss/stage individually. I could fit more data since each boss/stage is a totally independent exe. I know i could use a BIN with sectors, i suppose, b...

If your trying it out on real hardware, use the hardware mode 320x240. 640x480 don't work cause of the GPU slowdown problem. I've read somewhere that it's solvable, but I haven't given all my time and effort into fixing it yet. Honestly, I'm not sure if I can actually solve it, but I know it has som...

I'll try to put more comments and stuff to explain functions, but I like to comment out a lot of functions just because they'll be useful later on. If you want to do some tests, try this... open ICE_CODE.h goto the start of game play : line 618 add WEAPON_QUICK_FLG=ON; before the start of the game l...

OK, here's a better version. The gameover Layout is more intuitive now. Your not forced to go to stage select anymore. It let's you fight the same boss over again which cuts the loading times since it doesn't have to reload everything. The new load indicator is also very helpful/distracting ^_^. I'l...

Yeah, my older brother had the same problem. He also noted that the character's chests were too big. I don't know what i can do about the chests, but I'll be uploading some better source soon with a better work around with loading times.

thanx... for making me feel old! j/k ((( I'm 29 >_< ))) But yeah, i appreciate the comment. The power absorb kinda has that "Valkyrie Profile soul search" thing going at the end.

thanx

I've been working on this and a couple of other things off and on since 2008. I half made the engine in late 2008 then left it alone for over a year. The first source code on my computer labeled "ROLL_001a.c" is dated 9/3/2010 so...
