ROM Hacking Discussion / Re: There's no way to get Europe's Master System games running at 60Hz, is there?

The MasterSystem is similar to MSX.
That means you can apply MSX programming information.
The Game Gear has a larger pallete, stereo and the same resolution as the GameBoy.

I saw this one man project going from FF7 in FF3 to something that used more of the scattered 2MB ROM to push the edge.I liked the idea to help it getting impressive like the new homebrew NES titles.
Have not gotten myself around to write a Snowboard,Chocobo Racing and G-Bike patch in CC65, fitting that into a 32KB ROM bank and find RAM for variables.


Now if that's going back to FF1 look then it needs the typical battle background stripes.

cppcheck or the analyzer from LLVM could help you finding problems in your source code.

The menu bar at the top was what made Mac OS and its clones GEM/TOS different to other GUIs.
When Apple bought Next, they first inserted MacOS Copland style menus, icons and window frames.

stay at C, you can do almost everything alone and its best optimized by compilers.

SSD (multi level cell NAND flash ROM)is no long term storage as you see with MP3 players and if you want to dive into technical PDFs.

FFIX engine is much different from FFVII and VIII.Its easier to import Twilight Princess data into Majoras Mask than get FFIX areas in FF7.

CC65 can help you if you are not familar with 6502 asm.
You can also write Master System games in C using Z88DK.
