Re: Fenix DC Test Results
Well, I made another test to answer the questions that I had from the first.
* Now I found that the joystick of the DC is supported via joystick functions, but L and R buttons and the D-Pad are unsupported :(. Remember that joystick functions will be very useful if you try to make a 2 player game. Here is the complete map:
- get_joy_position(0)= returns the state of the X axis of the analog pad (from -128 to 128 ).
- get_joy_position(1)= returns the state of the Y axis of the analog pad (from -128 to 128 ).
- get_joy_button(1)= returns the state of the B button (0 if unpressed and 1 if it's pressed).
- get_joy_button(2)= returns the state of the A button (0 if unpressed and 1 if it's pressed).
- get_joy_button(3)= returns the state of the START button (0 if unpressed and 1 if it's pressed).
- get_joy_button(5)= returns the state of the Y button.
- get_joy_button(6)= returns the state of the X button.
* Oh, and about those problems I had with WAV's, now I know that you can't use song functions to play WAV's because they will play slow and choppy. The best song format is the S3M, it plays perfect without any slowdown. The problem is, like Atari said before, there is an awful limit to load WAV's with wav functions, and I don't know exactly but the limit is near or under the 500kb per file, so be careful with that.
Somebody knows what limit we have with the WAV format loading (using wav functions, of course)? Thanks!

Thanks for that info Paul55, I haven't dabbled with any Fenix ports but I'm sure Wraggster would appreciate all the effort you've put in ;). By the way, where's Atari?, I haven't seen him post in a while, I hope he's busy making some unique games ;D.
Re: Fenix DC Test Results
You're welcome! ;D. I read somewhere that Atari was making a shoot'em up game, but he decided to make it for himself, I expect he will change his mind :) . Anyways he is not the only one making a shoot'em up game for the DC...
