(Orignal post) OK, I almost fixed the bug by replacing: $FFFFFE00 -> $FFFFFE40 (Level X-Pos) $FFFFFE04 -> $FFFFFE44 (Level Y-Pos) But now I'm getting this: (A wrong chunk line while moving to the left)
I think it might have something to do with the deformation/background scrolling/whatever. When I made the deformation routines a simple rts, that kind of stuff started happening.
Hey, I'm wondering. Has anyone messed with the E02 Engine? I've thinking about learning it. Pretty sure it said on the site you can use the Matrix engine for your project, even with examples file. Yet, I don't see any examples script or what not. Anyway, I'm wondering if messed with it.
Not sure if it worked, maybe I haven't properly refined the code to work with the rest of the routine. To give you an idea what I'm working for here is the ASM. Basically I dash move that pushes you diagonally: Code (ASM): ; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Subroutine for forward dash ; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; ||||||||||||||| S U B R O U T I N E ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Sonic_DiagDash: move.b ($FFFFF602).w,d0 ; move the current button press to d0 andi.b #%00001010,d0 ; get only right and down button presses cmp.b #%00001010,d0 ; are right and down both pressed? bne.b JumpToDiagD_End ; if not, return move.b ($FFFFF603).w,d0 ; is ABC pressed? (part 1) andi.b #$70,d0 ; is ABC pressed? (part 2) JumpToDiagD_End: jmp DiagD_End Cont_DiagD: tst.b ($FFFFFFEB).w ; was jumpdash flag set? bne.w DiagD_End ; if yes, branch move.b #1,($FFFFFFEB).w ; if not, set jumpdash flag move.b #$23,$1C(a0) ; use "leaping" animation move.w #$BC,d0 ; set jumpdash sound jsr (PlaySound).l ; play jumpdash sound bclr #4,$22(a0) ; clear double jump flag move.w #$600,$12(a0) ; move sonic forward (y-velocity) move.w #$600,d0 ; set normal jumpdash speed tst.b ($FFFFFE2E).w ; do you have speed shoes? beq.s DiagD_ChkUW ; if not, branch move.w #$A00,d0 ; set speed shoes jumpdash speed DiagD_ChkUW: btst #6,$22(a0) ; is Sonic underwater? beq.s DiagD_ChkDirection ; if not, branch move.w #$600,d0 ; set underwater jumpdash speed move.w #$600,$12(a0) ; move sonic forward (y-velocity) DiagD_ChkDirection: btst #0,$22(a0) ; is sonic facing left? beq.s DiagD_Move ; if yes, branch neg.w d0 ; if not, negate d0 (for jumping to the right) DiagD_Move: move.w d0,$10(a0) ; move sonic forward (X-velocity) move.w d0,$12(a0) DiagD_End: rts ; return ; End of function Sonic_DiagDash
You never branch to Cont_DiagD. You're missing a check after these lines: Code (ASM): move.b ($FFFFF603).w,d0 ; is ABC pressed? (part 1) andi.b #$70,d0 ; is ABC pressed? (part 2) ; add this: bne.s Cont_DiagD
Hello. If it's alright to ask here, Could anyone do a bit of ripping for me? You see, the genesis game, Animaniacs does have some DAC samples and drum sounds I could really use for my music, in my opinion. I would love it if someone could rip from that, because I don't know how to do it myself.
Well I have it working with mixed results since: 1. It works by just pressing the diag button. 2. Since it won't work with left button I tried making another separate routine for that button, yet the directions always screw up, either going right instead of left or up instead of down. Oh an unrelated question I am trying to work with the Super Sonic pallette in Sonic 2 (Super Sonic Transformation right?). I'm trying to edit a different color from yellow however you're not allowed to use the same color twice in the same line. Anyway to get around this?
Hm I'm not sure what you mean here. There is nothing that prevents you from using the same color multiple times on a palette line (other than that it's kinda stupid as you're wasting palette indexes).
Well the super pallette consists of three rotations on each line (at least I think this is the super pallette) so in places the same color would be used. Maybe it's just because I'm editing it on SonMapEd, if you try to use the same color in two blocks of the same line it merely switches the colors from one to the other (eg. if you have a green and try to edit a blue into the same green it will instead switch blocks so the green is blue and the blue is green).
The Super Sonic palette rotation has four colors for each frame, like Sonic has four blue colors in his normal palette.
Ok, this is my second legit hack, and I need a little help. Well I've decided to follow some tutorials and add in spindash, jumpdash, a secret new move I am currently working on, and adding characters. Anyway, I decided to make each character have their own separate palette but I have found it somewhat difficult. I'm pretty new to this stuff, and this is my first true asm experiment. Here is what I have so far. BTW, this is in the Markey Jester 128 disassembly. ; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Pallet data ; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (skip everything to changes) Pal_Sonic: incbin pallet\sonic.bin Pal_Classic: incbin pallet\classicsonic.bin then I went and edited the Level Subordinare, loc_3946: cmpi.b #$01,($FFFFFFFE) ; is the multiple character flag set to $01 (Metal Sonic)? beq.w ClassicLoad ; If not, branch moveq #3,d0 bsr.w PalLoad1 ; load Sonic's pallet line bsr.w LevelSizeLoad beq.w loc_3950 ClassicLoad: moveq #4,d0 bsr.w PalLoad2 ; load Sonic's pallet line bsr.w LevelSizeLoad beq.w loc_3950 loc_3950: bsr.w DeformBgLayer bset #2,($FFFFF754).w bsr.w MainLoadBlockLoad ; load block mappings and pallets bsr.w LoadTilesFromStart jsr FloorLog_Unk bsr.w ColIndexLoad bsr.w LZWaterEffects move.b #1,($FFFFD000).w ; load Sonic object tst.w ($FFFFFFF0).w bmi.s Level_ChkDebug move.b #$21,($FFFFD040).w ; load HUD object So can someone help me here? Every time I try to load Character 2(classic Sonic), it still loads Sonic's palette as opposed to the one I have set it to. Basically ClassicLoad is suppose to load palette 4, which is Sonic 1's normal Sonic palette. I've checked the actual palette files themselves, and they are made differently to tailor each character. This is the only thing that baffles me. I've got the extra lives and invincibility to play the different sound files, each characters moves sets setup, this is the only thing that won't work. Some input would be nice. Thanks.
Change the beq (Branch if EQual) opcode to bne (Branch if Not Equal) after the code that checks to see what character has been selected and see if that works. Also it's a Subroutine, not a Subordinare, but I know what you mean. xP
Does anyone know of a way to view entire Sonic 3&K levels using a Gens snapshot or something? EDIT: Nevermind there are snapshots on the wiki. Derp. EDIT2: What the hell? 8th special stages in Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles? Anyone want to explain those?
A rephrase is in order: Anyone want to explain why it's there? Are these some of the Blue Spheres stages?
Originally each game was going to have 8 emeralds, but decided against it. But as you see, they were already programmed into the game, just hidden. They aren't any of the Blue Sphere stages btw, from what I know. :\
Ok, I happen to have an inquiry about Sonic 1 Special Stage spawn points. I built something in the Sonic 1 Special Stage Editor that I plan to use in Hivebrain's ASM68k Dissassembly, but I'm afraid that Sonic will spawn outside of my Special Stage, should I try to play it. I need to find the parameters in the code that I must change to define Sonic's spawn point on the first Special Stage, because I'm replacing it for my own. The file in question is "sloc_ss.bin".
What's the question? Two bytes X, Two bytes Y. After 4 bytes that repeats for special stage 2, and so on.
fun question; Say I wanted to make a sonic game using 2D drawn animation, rather than 3D or pixel sprites, is there an engine that I can use to do that? granted I know pretty much nothing about programming or engines or any of that stuff, and I find it hard to learn.
