Re: All Uzebox Games Online! (Cuzebox and Emscripten)

I will look into this.

You provided a diff, thank you. How could I integrate it to test it out?

I could add something for url params that would set those flags too.

I've been a bit busy and have changed my dev environment. I want to try to do this and add your game this week.

Re: FOOTBALL

Awesome! This makes me wonder... remember all those little Tiger handheld games in the early 90's? How many of those could be easily ported to Uzebox? I had this as a kid: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1300545497/vintage-1989-konami-tmnt-teenage-mutant (1989 Konami TMNT Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles H...

Re: gconvert 2 bit PNG support

485 unique tiles in your image. The black tile is used 366 times where most the other tiles are used once or twice and occasionally six times. I've attached a picture from GconvertJS to illustrate how many unique tiles are in your image. Before you start going technical and changing the kernel you s...

Re: gconvert 2 bit PNG support

How complex is your title screen? Some games such as B.C. Dash (https://uzebox.org/wiki/B.C._Dash) reuse the game tiles as the title screen. The only extra flash cost would be for the title screen map itself. If you can make it a collection of smaller maps then the space between the individual graph...

Re: gconvert png converter, utracker

No, I had not heard of godot. Yes, JSGAME is intended to be a game engine, in JavaScript and not just single-thread JavaScript but with WebWorkers for the drawing or other heavy-lifting. Godot looks pretty awesome though. It may be something that I want to check out. It IS for the fun of making it a...

Re: gconvert png converter, utracker

I agree although not 100%. Video tutorials can be excellent. However, I appreciate when a tutorial can be read and followed. In a tutorial, ideally, I would want both a video and a readable version even if that is only the transcript of the video. I'm working very hard on another video game project,...

Re: Mode 3 font hello world

You're welcome! And I've really enjoyed seeing what you've been posting here. The Uzebox kernel can support as many ram tiles or tiles as the data-type of the VRAM will allow. Typically, VRAM is 8-bit so you get 255 max and the ram tiles are counted in that same limit. But, Mode 1 could use 16-bit V...

Re: Mode 3 font hello world

Has anyone written a script, program or function to count how many tiles there are in a given (include) file? Do I need to include my sound patches before the tileset and font? GconvertJs will give you an output of the reduced tileset and you can over over each tile to get the tileId for that tile....

Re: gconvert png converter, utracker

Perhaps it should be added as a link. Both programs do the job although I prefer mine (lol.) I have updated my gconvertJS to support JSON output (not useful for Uzebox but for another project of mine.) Additionally, the UAM feature where you can log in now has the batch convert working. This require...

Re: gconvert png converter, utracker

I have just tried to use gconvertJS for the first time but I didn't get very far. When you paste your xml in the INPUT XML window, what file name am I supposed to use for the input filename? The filename isn't actually important since gconvertJS doesn't actually read files (unless they are saved (l...
