I would Andrew, but Coley said it the tune locks up in a stand alone player, when played in HSS V1.2
so I kept with my modified V1.0 [noparse]:D[/noparse] for OldBitCollector to test.
Baggers, it is fixed now, I am just in the process of adding all the tunes into one big HMUS file then it will be ready.
I am also retuning the sfx to take into account the changes made by Andrew.
Thanks Coley, didn't get much chance to have a play tonight, but put level2 layout, will add croc and fly, and girl frog code next [noparse]:)[/noparse]
as well as the new driver.
Looks a pretty accurate remake, right down to (c) Sega! LOL! And just as frustrating as the original too. Well done!
And a demo mode too.
There's a renderer bug on the Hydra. In the title screen when the frogs come in from the right, the sixth frog comes on, and part of it isn't drawn, then the whole screen breaks up. It fixes itself when the game starts though. I'm guessing that your renderer doesn't recover when it takes too long to render a scan line. Maybe you could reproduce the bug by changing the clockmode on your hybrid so it runs slower, or by adding some more frogs till it goes wrong.
JT Cook, I'm using my modified Parallax TV driver.
CardboardGuru, Cheers [noparse];)[/noparse] had to change position of some text as NTSC wouldn't go bigger than 240 scanlines and frogger is 224x256, and demo mode too yeah, had to put that in [noparse]:D[/noparse] and as for the sprites causing breakup, I forgot to put the check for timeout on it, works on the hybrid's 96Mhz with time to spare to draw 9 16pixel width sprites on a scanline, but obviously not at 80 on the Hydra, will fix that on next release, ( well I say fix it, it'll have to tear but I'll make it not break the rest of the display [noparse];)[/noparse] )
Cheers for the comments guys,
Had but an hour or so last night, didn't get to do much but fix the sprite issue ( blindly so let me know if it's fixed [noparse]:)[/noparse] ) and add the fly, oh and modify Andrew's new HSS v1.2 to be one file suits all [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Frog 5 on the main menu gets a little bit distorted and I can only see "FROG" out of FROGGER on the main menu...
Besides that, it's great...

Living on the planet Earth might be expensive but it includes a free trip around the sun every year...
Experience level:
[noparse][[/noparse] ] Let's connect the motor to pin 1, it's a 6V motor so it should be fine.
[noparse][[/noparse] ] OK, I got my resistors hooked up with the LEDs.
[noparse][[/noparse]X] I got the Motor hooked up with the H-bridge and the 555 is supplying the PWM.
[noparse][[/noparse] ] Now, if I can only program the BOE-BOT to interface with he Flux Capacitor.
[noparse][[/noparse] ] I dream in SX28 assembler...
Thanks for the info Bamse,
It's down to the Hybrid being faster than the Hydra, and me only having 4 cogs for sprite rendering,
1 for main spin, 1 for TV driver, 4 for rendering and 2 for HSS so I don't have one spare for a 5th render cog.
Hmm, maybe I can switch out the Xtal on the Hydra to a 6MHz...
Anyone else done this ?

JT Cook, yeah HSS takes two cogs [noparse]:([/noparse] but I might try and push Andrew to do a monocog version [noparse]:)[/noparse], ( no, not the bicycle lol )
Bamse, not sure the Prop needs caps for the clock.
Found an interesting bug... About level 3 and higher the white trucks started dragging 0's across the screen.
Looks like they might be from the scoreboard. First noticed after falling into the water from the turtles.
Also the last three frogs and letters in FROGGER don't appear correctly.
Feature request: Could START or SELECT be used to toggle the music on/off in the game?

Thanks OBC, That's cos I've only done first two levels, [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Last letters in frogger, will appear correctly, but at the price of making it run at 30fps in game [noparse]:([/noparse] as HSS needs two cogs to run, but if I put the hss update code in the main spin, it makes it chug, but it gives me the 5 cogs for rendering, as Hybrid only uses 4 for rendering.
And yeah I'll add start/select to toggle music on/off that'll also give me the speed back [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Got my 6 MHz Xtal for the Hydra, and gave the Hybrid version a try @ 96MHz...
Works great and I can now see all 7 frogs on the intro...
Just one small problem, the joypad is mapped different...
Left is down, right is up, up is right and down is left...
Kind of confusing...

yeah that's the way the old 9pin Dtype joypads were layed out.
the joypad bits come out differently to the NES pads on the hydra.
Don't worry, will be releasing the source soon, with final version, just got a little sidetracked with ZX81 and 3DMM as it's a favourite of mine I just HAD to do [noparse]:)[/noparse]

I'll hopefully get some chance to finish the game before xmas, but spare time it's getting increasingly slim at the mo lol

PS it now has first Frogger tune, if somewhat fast on Hybrid at 96Mhz not 80Mhz, as i'm using a modified HSS V1.0
Use the new version of HSS I uploaded on the website that is designed for the hybrid. [noparse]:)[/noparse]
That should correct any timing problems.
So remember, match the HSS version with your hardware. *lol* [noparse];)[/noparse]
so I kept with my modified V1.0 [noparse]:D[/noparse] for OldBitCollector to test.

I looks great btw!
Great work.

as well as the new driver.

Also the 96mhz vs 80mhz shows a big difference when you load up X-Racer. It runs too fast to even be playable.
