FBA WIP

[vbt]

here are testing results :
bombjack has a problem with slave cpu
zaxxon has a problem with assigning bg scroll value

another point about satcom (for cafe-alpha)
SatLink.exe usb_dev_cart.ini -l d_zaxxon.bin 0x060B4000 -x sl.bin 0x06004000
it would need a parameter to auto quit satcom 🙂

 

[cafe-alpha]

"SatLink.exe usb_dev_cart.ini -l d_zaxxon.bin 0x060B4000 -x sl.bin 0x06004000 -exit" ?

Please let me know if it doesn't work as expected 🙂

ok, i admit, it works perfecttly, you thought about everything. in fact i started to be bored to forget to close previous instance of satcom and to restart loading binaries

Glad it did the job 🙂
I really need to add a page about SatLink/satcom_lib usage somewhere on my homepage ...

> i admit, it works perfecttly, you thought about everything.

I rather think this is just a lucky coincidence : my software (especially the ones I write at work) are usually filled with bugs/specifications lacks/etc 😀

another unexpected game working (never worked before)

 

[vbt]

Appooh can be a good choice ?

by request game gear support started :

 

[cafe-alpha]

Thank you ! Favorite games from my childhood are game gear ones. I can't wait to play them on my Saturn 🙂
What is the interest to add both CZ80 and raze ? Is there compatibility issues with raze ?

more games run with cz80, i can't say which one. also i've added shadow dancer support thanks to dink (fba team)

Is there compatibility issues with raze ?

yes because i did the port of faze from sh4 to sh2 and i added free bugs 🙂 for now, Game gear runs with Raze.
I'm having troubles with colors and i don't know yet if my cycle patterns are correct.

That big assembly monster in your github page ? That's difficult not to add bugs in such 500+ KB .s file 😀

Sorry you're more experienced around this, so I can't help you a lot regarding VDP2 settings.
After I get rid of Pseudo Saturn Kai, I really want to start having fun with VDP2 🙂

the big asm file was generated with m4 app and i'm not sure i would be able to modify the min file.
i've fixed some colors problems, added start button support, now i'm on sprites :

priority support on gg & sms :

In order to illustrate what priority support bring to fba_saturn, here is a screenshot before the fix :

Good job, vbt ! Thank you 🙂

 

[vbt]

some fixes done for GG maybe it's ready for user testing.
still no support of 8 sprites by line (gg & sms), it's really speed eater, maybe with some slave cpu use it could work.
it affects mainly/only Virgin games (cool spot, mick & mack, etc)

porting prospects :
