Discuss Mikhail Tkach's InfoNES port

[levi47]

Is there a reason the link to an unsupported build was removed even though it is exactly what was asked for in the thread and pertains to this thread? i can't seem to find any builds incorporating this patch and i would also like to try it out. Can anyone at least name the build that has this patch in it?

You're not suppose to post unsupported builds in this forum.

I'm trying to configure the keys on a 5.5g iPod Video for this, however I'm just short 2 keys (button A and button B).

I think the only solution for this would be to use the scroll wheel regions the same way RockBoy does it

This thing is waaay out of date, and I don't really have the coding prowess to fix it...anyone wanna take a whack at it? It throws a few build errors.

It never did work well in the first place anyway, unless somebody wants to invest some serious time it's a lost cause.

Actually...  It only requires only a few changes to compile for 3.0 on the ipod video target.

It still doesn't work well...

Change this line:
enum plugin_status plugin_start(struct plugin_api* api, void* parameter)
to this:
enum plugin_status plugin_start(const struct plugin_api* api, const void* parameter)

Change all  rb->splash() statements to rb->splashf()

Change:
struct event_queue timer_thread_q;
to:
static struct event_queue timer_thread_q SHAREDBSS_ATTR;

Change:
struct event ev;
to:
struct queue_event ev;

And change:
rb->timer_register(1, NULL, TIMER_FREQ / (1000 / TIMER_PER_LINE), 1, timer_callback);
to
rb->timer_register(1, NULL, TIMER_FREQ / (1000 / TIMER_PER_LINE), 1, timer_callback, 0);

It won't work on the Fuze without you writing a fair amount of code to make it work.

[lolsack]

but ive seen it on the fuze in a pic on the development page
found it here http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/2911?string=nes

It looks like someone in that task has done some of the programming.  I'd read through it and see what you need to do to get it to work.

[lolsack]

ok thank you very much

[jmr]

I was the one who posted that photo with NES running on the Fuze.
To be honest, I haven't really used the NES emulator that much since then.  While I will say that it's 'playable' in it's current state, it still needs a bit of work before it passes the threshold between playable and enjoyable.  It's still pretty buggy, and the sound didn't work for me.  To top things off, development seems to have stalled again. 

I haven't attempted compiling the most recent working patch with the latest builds either, so there's a possibility it might not work at all anymore...

[lolsack]

oh D: well..... could you try compiling it for me please and i'll test it


EDIT: err actually ill compile it just please tell me how to download and compile the patch i have looked at the simple guid to compiling but it is to confusing for my feeble little mind

[Chronon]

You would be better off asking specific questions about the parts that confuse you in the 'starting development and compiling' forum.  People probably won't feel like paraphrasing that guide without knowing what part confuses you.

[lolsack]

like the whole thing confuses me including downloading the patches

[Chronon]

jmr posted a link to it.  You can just right-click and save it.

This topic isn't about how to set up a build environment and apply patches.  Why don't you start a new topic in the appropriate forum and explain carefully how far you got (e.g. did you get a build environment set up properly, were you able to get the source code, etc.).  It's good to ask questions if you're confused, this just isn't the right topic for that.
