Uploaded some really old TI-83 games

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

I just uploaded some really old games that I made for the TI-83 graphing calculator back in high school. (more…)

my wonderful new controller

Sunday, November 6th, 2005

i haven’t owned a controller for my pc since way back when i got a cheap knockoff mad catz version of the gravis gamepad which was in a snes controller shell. ah those were the days. i used to use that thing to play nesticle all the time. anyway, i wanted a controller, but a decent one costs like $40. even the cheapest logitech pads i could find were like $30 and they looks like crap. so then i found out about xbox controllers just being usb and you can hack them up. so i found a cheap used knockoff mad catz version of the xbox controller s for $10, took a usb cable lying around my house, and started cutting. but then i couldn’t find any electrical tape and i realized i had no soldering iron. so 5 mins of twisting and duct tape later i have a controller that works anwyay. it’s not too bad, except that i really don’t like the xbox controller all that much, but it works better than my keyboard. my favorite part of it is how half the wire is black, then there’d duct tape, and the other half is white. that’s a quality job right there!

just to prove that no job is ever really finished, i updated my heracles 2 patch today.

it’s a pretty minor bugfix, but it also makes one of the more annoying parts of the start of the game more playable (as it was originally meant to be).

i reissued the first mp3.com banana yellow album that i made (besides that 11 minute pudkuf crap, mostly because i lost that one) on cafepress.com. i’ll probably put the other 2 up sometime soon as well. of course i don’t expect anyone to buy them but hey, i’m having fun here.

just released heracles 2 v 1.3. i finally fixed a bug that made zeus say something that a guy in temis said. now zeus says what zeus is supposed to say. i still don’t know quite what caused the bug, but whatever it was it’s gone now. i also made a couple of the goofy sounding townspeople talk a bit more coherently. anyway, this one *should* be it. i’ve been trying to fix that zeus bug since the summer, so i’m pretty happy with myself now. yay… too many patches… =P

heracles 2 v 1.2 released and contest closed. check heracle2.txt for why. by the way, i know an awful lot about the rom now and i’m thinking of writing an editor for it kind of like yousei’s ff3 editor. it would have many less features because it’s such an old rom, but still, you could make a playable nes dragon warrior clone thing. so is it a worthwhile idea? gimme feedback.

ok, consider this to be a contest of sorts. when i translated heracles 2, i did some screwing around with the rom. in fact, i added a secret item somewhere in the game. i dummied it out for the initial patch, but tonight i am re-releasing it with the dummied item put back in. this item cannot be found in the japanese version. it’s a fairly useless item, but it’s mine nonetheless and i’m proud of it. so anyway, the first person who sends me a screenshot of the point in the game where you receieve the item wins. and since there’s text spilling off the edge of the screen and stuff at points, you might as well send me screenshots of that too so i can fix it, just cuz i’m bored. so have fun and keep it spoony. =P
