madskillz, thanks for the help. I'll be using 8x8 for the graphics, but send me the sprites if you like so I can take a look at them. I'm sure it'll help with inspiration or ideas. email is me@juansuave.com soon, let's say as soon as I have something nice to show off, I'll move this the 'Announce yo...

HAHAHAHA...no kidding. I'm seriously tired of xbox. Mine is about to become a webserver or something. Or a doorstop. I'm back to ps2 now. Upgraded to the smaller version a month or two ago, and just got Metal Gear Solid 3 and GTA:SA for Christmas. Suhweeet!

TextPad is a really nice editor, but I have it all set up for GBA deving with devkitARM.

Crimson Editor as well, but I rarely use any features besides the syntax highlighting, and sometimes the file tree. I checked SciTe for Windows, and it also only has the Assembly syntax, no specific z80. Maybe they have something extra you can download.

wow, I hadn't even looked at that closely enough yet. Thanks for adding me in there too!! Dead center too. That made my xmas morning.

Good planning is key. I've already seen how easy it is to program yourself into a corner, as it may be. But if you think about what you need first, you can plan around that. One area I'm seriously lacking in is graphics. Any helpful links for like pixel design or art? I doubt I will try take graphic...

the main issues I need to work out now are bullets / collision and maps. I want to plan out the maps and the system before I dive into much else. In games like TVF or Corbin, did you guys just make one huge map and access it little bits at a time, or did you make smaller sub maps for each area? For ...

that only happens to me when the calc (emulator calc that is...) isn't on. hit 'Scroll Lock' or the 'On' key on the calc.

oh man, kung fu is such a great game. I think I am going to go with Jackal. Sounds like fun, and doesn't seem like there are many games like that.

Well, if the Jackal page doesn't work, it's basically a top view, drive-around-in-a-jeep-and-shoot-things-while-avoiding-those-who-shoot-at-you type game.

Maybe I'll try and combine the two. Have the guy walk around and have a story, then jump in his jeep and shoot stuff.

I'm not sure whether to put this uner "Programming Help" or "Programming Ideas" because I need help with a programming idea. :shock: I basically have been re-learning all the basics, and have a pretty decent tilemapper/scroller engine done. The thing is I don't really know what t...

correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't _puts look for CURROW and CURCOL for it's coordinate? So loading $0000 into CURROW and calling _puts will put your text at (0,0).

alright, third forum change in like a month.

jk guys. Like vincent said on the front page, let's bring this forum back to the status it used to be.
