I just completed an RNC2 decompressor for ARM asm with example code for GCC. You can find it here as well as links to Sprite Stripper, tUME, & several ARM...
Did anyone else see the confusing GBA emulation article on the piss-poor computer show 'Bits' on channel 4 in the uk? I quote: 'Nintendo are going to the...
Does anyone know if I design a game using iGBA to test it and it runs fine, will it actually run on a real GBA ? If not, what is the approximate time it would...
Right, I eventually got round to rechecking byte access to vram - on the latest rev gba and it's just like the ts4 before it - there doesn't seem to be...
Hi all, I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I heard that there are now GBC games that detect whether or not they are on a GBA unit. GBC games...
I don't know how many of you remember tUME (the Ultimate Map Editor), but it's now open source. It's a map editor. It uses tiles from Deluxe Paint. It's...
Hello, I am pretty new to GBA-developing, i have many many years experience in programming (C++) though, and i also did some programming on old gameboy stuff,...
Hi, I only have the TS-2 docs, so I have some questions: 1. what changed between TS-2 and TS-4 (or newer dev kit) ? 2. on a interrupt, how do you know what...
If i compile and setup gcc for arm on my linux box, will it stop me being to compile linux software or does it just add a new target? autoconf always says my...

Help! These strange registers have got me all confused. Especially the one to set up your video mode and your Objects. Here is an example that I am a bit...
Hey all, It is my impression that vram can only be read/written in 16bit or 32bit increments. (No 8bit writes, anyway.) I just got this email from a developer...
... Ops! Dumb mistake. ... I like this version better as well. It doesn't have the single pixel starting error that my version does. Good arm work, as always....
Hi Erik, ... Sure. If the data is small then it's not a big compile time hit. Speaking of that, I just updated my B2X tool to include GCC assembler support: ...
I have some programming experience, but not in console programming so I have a few questions. I have noticed some utilities that convert a raw file into an ASM...
Hi Everyone I'm new to the GBA scene and I'd like to know how sprites should be drawn. It was easy on the GBC because there was Tile Designer. Now I'm using...
Hi Thomas, ... I also have downloaded the arm SDT but much prefer gcc. The main reason being that official devers, linux, and regular windows users can all...
... Thanks! That's exactly what I was needing but couldn't decode from the arm doc. :) ... For the benefit of others I figured I'd mention something I noticed...
Hey, I was wondering if there are any notable differences between using GCC to compile or using the compiler in the ARM SDT. I'm using the ARM SDT at the...
Bollocks, you know what? I was doing one cpu test after the dma test and a wait for vcount in between - and I've just discovered that contrary to what the...
Hi all, I am trying to add rotation/scaling capabilities to our sprites class but it seems that it's not possible to do it with 16 colours sprites. Is that...
I'm writing up a document on c/asm interfacing with arm GCC. I've figured out the mixing of assembly inside of a c function and now I'm working on .c / .s file...
I posted this once, it's fairly VITAL information for ALL of us. Is it the case that NOBODY knows just how the pipelining works? Does anyone else think that...
