Right now two stages are the most fleshed out, those being the intro stage and the bike stage.

It'll end up being the first thing you get to when you select 'GAME', I think. The way we have the debug menu wired up is so the training option points to the test map for the selected vehicle, which here happens to be the intro stage.

A port is when you take an existing codebase meant for one system and modify it to run on another different system. (5/5)

A recomp, to my understanding, essentially does what an emulator does, translating the source instruction set to the target instruction set as it runs, ahead of time. I wouldn't necessarily call these 'ports'. (4/5)

A disassembly involves translating a program from machine language to more human readable assembly language. If the program was written solely in assembly, it's a disassembly, not a decomp. (3/5)

A decomp involves disassembling a program originally written in a higher level language (e.g. C) and translating the assembly into higher level code that is either functionally equivalent or compiles to a 1:1 match to the original program. (2/5)

Fun fact: A decomp, disassembly, recomp, and port are 4 different things. I'm sick of seeing people confuse these terms, so I'll try to explain each of these to the best of my understanding: (1/5)

Putting two and two together, it seems reasonable to assume that this unreferenced sequence was intended for this. It fits what I'd expect to hear if the arrows did have a sound already.

The arrows that appear at the edges of the screen call sound 8A, which points to a dummy sequence that ends immediately.

Interesting unused Star Fox thing: The arrows that appear when flying near the edges of the screen were originally going to play a sound. The sound for this seems to be still in the sound driver, but it goes unreferenced as the pointer to it was dummied out.

Blindly modifying sound drivers to please my exaggerated ambitions, my favorite! ...Something's in the works...😉

Happy birthday to Monika! Where are you headed for your club field trip?

In the back, Sayori is excitedly looking out the window, admiring a mountainous landscape, and Yuri is absent-mindedly glancing out the window as well, lost in thought.

I wonder if it would be possible to adapt the NES Zapper to work with the SNES? Looking at nocash's specs for the pinouts and such, it seems like it could maybe be done, but I don't know an awful lot about that side of things.

I'm hoping to put out another project update soon. It's slow, but things are being done and I hope to have something significant to show for all of this soon. Thank you for your patience as we struggle through all of this.

Thanks to Livvy, we were able to back up part of the old server so we could save as much useful info from there as possible. I'm amazed by how quickly I took matters into my own hands to get everything back up and running. I don't think I've ever moved this fast.

I would have posted another update sooner but I had to wait due to the potential risk of losing the things we were going to save. After my previous post, channels on the old server relating to our projects were archived and I began to worry that they could end up deleted.

It's been great seeing everybody talking and developing and making things again. We're all very motivated to get things done, even if we're a bit aimless right now. (3/6)

It turns out that I really didn't know a lot of these people as well as I thought I did, It was nice to catch up with everyone and just talk and have fun for once. I've come to understand what I really have.
