Re: Prince of persia sega genesis version differences??

http://www.dailydot.com/debug/sega-genesis-preorder-details/ 16-bit? I thought it was 32-bit because it uses an m68k CPU. (Like the Macintosh and the Amiga.) Quoting from Wikipedia : "The decision to use a Motorola 68000 as the system's main CPU was made late in development, while a Zilog Z80 ...

Re: Names of SNES level types

Quiz question: why does apoplexy use "lava" instead of "red"? :)

Re: princed.org (phpBB forum + WordPress webpages)

There's also a link to Facebook on the main page.
Pretty hard to miss, so probably also blocked by your NoScript.

Twitter is just linked from threads on the Announcements board, I think.
Embedded tweets.
Most "Comment »" links on the main page go to these threads.

Re: Broken room links outside PoP

Nice overview.
Maybe link to this thread from the Wiki?

I guess you have a 50/50 chance to find the episode there?
By the way, a feature film adaptation of the novel appears to be in the making.

That fpfunny1.png, 800x600, so tiny when we look at it now.
And I remember it being a big improvement over 640x480. :)

Re: SDLPoP; David's open-source port of PoP

Starting version 1.15, the .c files are UTF-8 instead of ASCII. No idea why, to be honest, but that's not the reason of this post. What I noticed is that replay.c and options.c say "D�vid" instead of "Dávid". Also, at least under Linux, replay saving is broken in the GitHub maste...

Re: What are you working on?

By the way, related to this : Why do you use int<->binary conversion instead of bit operations? Do you find them easier to understand? I do. :) I've been using right shift (>>), left shift (<<) and bitwise AND (&) for legbop. They aren't difficult operations. Although I had to search on Stack Ov...

Re: What is the best version? What are the diffrences?

As I wrote here : A couple of days from now I'll write a bit more about the differences between the DOS and GBC ports.
