I'm starting to get deeper into lua scripting. I have successfully created an array of dots that scroll along with the screen. Problem is, the dots have no significance, and will utterly fail to look good in stages 2, 4, and 6. Point is, I'm farther in lua scripts than before. I'll try creating a script that dots out where the terrain is. I'd like the practice.
I saw the pic when you posted it, but didn't get what's so special about it. Now I've found it on some optical illusions page. And it made me curious. What am I supposed to see in this picture? I see a girl with 4 eyes and 2 mouths, no matter from which distance I look at it.
The next piece of fun coding to do is to multiply each byte by 2, OR it with the original value, and AND it with 0xAA every frame. All terrain should be shot away with one shot, while the open space remains open... Theoretically. But putting in destructible terrain where there shouldn't be any... How will the game react? Probably normally, just with more destructive bullets than you thought possible.
There seems to be some spots within the range 6000 to 61E9 that aren't used. Or at least, not by the terrain. It also seems to switch between two sets of addresses, both within the range I specify. 0x6028 to 0x60EF, and 0x6128 to 0x61EF. On the other hand... There's the top-down view. That needs more width. In which case, it uses a larger range from 0x6000 to 0x60EF and 0x6100 to 0x61EF.
I'm not aware of this. I've looked through a few things, but never saw anything about it. Since I apparently can't find this, I probably would need to be pointed exactly to where it is.
At least, that's basically what I think... May be worth screwing around with this to confirm whether or not I'm right...
for i = 0, 100 do FCEU.frameadvance() end --avoid messing up the boot sequence
while true do
for i = 0, 0x1e9 do
memory.writebyte(0x6000+i, 1)
memory.writebyte(0x2080+i, i) --lol.
end
FCEU.frameadvance()
endEr, what is PPU Memory and how is it different from NES Memory? I'm guessing primarily graphical stuff happens in the PPU Memory...?
But first, I really should complete the input all the way through the first stage. I'm still wishing I had multi-track recording, but I'll run with one player and manually edit in the other player...
Again, I'm not sure what sort of help I need. Maybe a script that lets me know what directions I can take without blowing up on the terrain would be a start. I don't have many useful addresses, but if you need me to find something, I'll go look.
Does anyone have a good trick to bypass the stupid country check at youtube? Maybe some anonymizer site or something?
Anway, here's the encode - no intro, subtitles or anything, way too high bitrate and so on.
Perhaps I was unclear. There is a section where I have to wait for 10 seconds. So going into the menu and changing the colours will not waste any time.
What do you mean "moderated"? Are you suggesting that pre-judge system you suggested before? I really fail to see how that's any different than the system we have now: all you'd do is shunt it off to a select group of people. The way things are now, everyone can establish the legitimacy of a submission the way they establish the quality of a movie and help the judges do their job. We shouldn't take that help away from them for any reason.
I cannot get 2 steps out of the reactor. It desyncs when I leave the elevator. At first it would desync on the first step, after I re-did it 5 times it now desyncs on the second step. (It is a very precise part which requires frame precision timing) Any idea how to fix this?
If lurker can't vote, why lurker could post a submission ? Isn't it about an abuse problem ? Isn't it what we are living right now ?
I say let them stick around in the back corner of TASVideos (concept demos) -- at least until we have something to obsolete them with.
EDIT: Can you try this test? Looks better.
Imagine a professed Darwinist forced to read a lengthy essay which attempts to disprove evolution, or forced to read the Bible. There's no way they're not going to get bored out of their skull in minutes.
