Hi friends, since nobody is encouraged ... and after doing many tests, I can finally announce that I am introducing myself to the dev. The game will be called "Space Racing" (provisional name) and will be a demake of F-Zero from SNES (or N64 ¿?  ) for spectrum. Will our spectrum be able to move a 7 mode rendering by software without the SNES S-PPU1 and S-PPU2 chips? I hope so...  We will see you soon ... I will post images or videos of the game development here and on twitter (voxeltower). The game is being developed with CPCTelera (Yes, it is possible) and assembler, adding specific functions for spectrum (such as sprite drawing functions, etc). I am going to try to get game run on 48k and 128k models. I hope that now more friends are encouraged to present their games.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hola amigos, ya que nadie se anima... y tras hacer muchas pruebas, por fin puedo anunciar que me presento a la dev. El juego se llamará "Space Racing" (nombre provisional) y será un demake de F-Zero de SNES (o de N64 ¿? ) para spectrum. ¿ Podrán nuestros spectrum mover un modo 7 renderizando por software sin los chips S-PPU1 y S-PPU2 de SNES ? espero que sí... Lo veremos pronto... Publicaré imágenes o vídeos del desarrollo del juego aquí y en twitter (voxeltower). El juego se está desarrollando con CPCTelera (Sí, es posible) y ensamblador, agregando funciones especificas para spectrum (como funciones de dibujado de sprites, etc). Voy a intentar que el juego funcione en 48k y 128k. Espero que ahora se animen más amigos a presentar sus juegos. |

Welcome to the compo, voxeltower !! Amazing, F-Zero is one of my favorite games on the SNES, and I am really curious to see what it will look like in the Spectrum! You are really fearless, what a project to begin the Dev!  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bienvenido al concurso, Voxeltower! Increíble, F-Zero es uno de mis juegos favoritos en SNES! Tengo mucha curiosidad por ver cómo va a salir en Spectrum! Eres un valiente, es un pedazo de proyecto! |

Hi voxeltower!
Just looked at your WIP images on Twitter, and I have to say, I'm very excited! I notice you are rendering byte-by-byte, giving the 3D image an effective horizontal resolution of 32 blocks. I'd be interested to know more about how you generate the image, especially taking into account the rotation.
I look forward to seeing how your entry develops! Good luck |

Hi voxeltower!

I look forward to seeing how your entry develops! Good luck Thank you very much prosm and abusimbel. Yes, the rendering is done byte by byte every 2 lines, using a pattern for the texture, it is the fastest / visually acceptable that I have achieved. The rendering technique uses precalculated values to avoid the spectrum having to make complicated trigonometric formulas. From these values, the spectrum only has to do sums to calculate what texture goes in that place. This means that right now the game goes between 8 and 12 fps although it is not finished yet and it could go a little slower. Now I am working on sprite scaling. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Muchas gracias prosm y abusimbel. Sí, el renderizado se hace byte a byte cada 2 lineas, usando un patrón para la textura, es lo más rápido/visualmente aceptable que he conseguido. La técnica de renderizado usa valores precalculados para evitar que el spectrum tenga que hacer complicadas formulas trigonométricas. A partir de esos valores el spectrum solo tiene que hacer sumas para calcular que textura va en ese lugar. Esto hace que ahora mismo el juego vaya entre 8 y 12 fps aunque aun no está acabado y podría ir un poco más lento. Ahora estoy trabajando en el escalado de sprites. |

Incredible¡ can't wait to see that in motion!
Increible, deseando verlo en movimiento!

I don´t know the original game, but it does look promising!

No conozco el juego pero promete la cosa.

I add WIP video on twitter.
I've worked really hard trying to get a high framerate (8-12 fps) to make it enjoyable to play. There is still a lot to do...
------------------------------------------------------------------------- He subido un video en twitter.
He trabajado muy duro para intentar conseguir un framerate alto (8-12 fps) para hacerlo más jugable. Aun queda mucho que hacer...

Wow! I have to say, it really comes together when it's in motion. The refresh rate covers up the limited horizontal resolution quite effectively. Hats off to you voxeltower! A brilliant job so far. I'm looking forward to playing it
-------------------------------
¡Guau! Tengo que decir que realmente se junta cuando está en movimiento. La frecuencia de actualización cubre la resolución horizontal limitada con bastante eficacia. ¡Me quito el sombrero ante tu voxeltower! Un trabajo brillante hasta ahora. Estoy deseando jugarlo

Hi friends, I have not shown anything in the game for a long time.
In the end I have decided that the game will only run at 128kb as it contains too many large 8-way sprites and I was having too much trouble keeping it all at 48kb.
Also I plan to make several menu and in-game songs.
I have been structuring all the data in those 128kb for several weeks so that the game goes perfect. I am changing the sprites to make them bigger and also with 3 different sizes.
Thank you very much for following Space Racing, I hope you like the final result.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hola amigos, hace tiempo que no muestro nada del juego.
Al final he decidido que el juego funcione solo en 128kb ya que contiene demasiados sprites grandes en 8 direcciones y me estaba costando demasiado mantenerlo todo en 48kb.
Ademas tengo pensado hacer varias canciones para el menu y durante el juego.
Llevo varias semanas estructurando todos los datos en esos 128kb para que el juego vaya perfecto. Estoy cambiando los sprites para hacerlos más grandes y ademas con 3 tamaños diferentes.
Muchas gracias por seguir Space Racing, espero que os guste el resultado final.

Yes! I like the fact that this is going forward and even bigger (I am a pro-128K hehe  ) Looking forward to seeing advances, and those melodies, tell me one will be Mute city... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ahí ahí! Me gusta ver que el tema sigue para adelante y ganando en complejidad, tanto que solo cabe en 128K (yo soy de los pro-128K jeje ) Muchas ganas de ver el resultado final, porque lo visto hasta ahora prometia mucho. Y esa melodías... una será Mute City, verdad? |

You can see how the game is progressing in this video from Javi Ortiz channel!: youtu.be/C5peNXfVY5s?t=5745----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Podéis ver cómo el juego sigue progresando en el video de ayer del recomendado canal de Javi Ortiz: youtu.be/C5peNXfVY5s?t=5745 |
