Okay I found it! Man it takes me back reading through this code again.

Ideally I would get everything compiling again so I could actually have a chance to help while you take this on, but it's probably more helpful to just get you a dump of everything right now.

What you need is "libsprite", which is a modified version of the original sprite library. In particular, I hand-crafted VLIW assembly routines to draw sprites of various complexity. Look for the sp_pixg#.s assembly files for the various flavors.

My version of source control back then was to copy all the files into a new directory named by date. I have directories for libsprite ranging from 2002 to 2008. Of note, two directories are appended with "-release" so I must have released those on the forums or my website at some point.

I'm attaching the May 14, 2003 release version. I'm totally fine sending along the rest, but I'm guessing since it is tagged with "release" that it must be somewhat stable.

If I find myself with a block of a few hours I may take a stab at getting Decaying Orbit compiling again. But hopefully this unblocks you for a while.

Hi again... sorry for the very late reply :/

2008 compiles fine, but I don't think that was the problem, I don't know for sure because I never got to the stage of link to libsprite2 :/
I did a grep for the missing references, and there not mentioned in both files :(
So, I can't move forward, TMK you've only released the libyar.c while it references other files not in the zips, ie libyar.h

Maybe you did your NY ports in a different folder?
If it includes sensitive code/information, I'm happy to keep it confidential and remove parts and clean it up etc.
I would really like to get the NY ball demo ported, then the few games made for the NY gamejam just finished up.

Hope you can help, again?
Cheers
Mike.

Hey sorry for the trouble. Work is easing up a bit so hopefully I have some time this weekend to play around with this again and get it all sorted out.

It's really my bad, I should have looked into the zip's more closely when you released them... end/start of year I was over committed :/
It's not urgent, when you feel like it, no pressure... I appreciate your help :)

Cafepress discontinued their CD manufacturing service so it's not available anymore. Anyone know of a similar on-demand service? I could maybe get it back up and available if there's something comparable out there.
Since this thread has been resurrected, I might as well say I’m also interested in this. I take it games+demos still isn’t available to buy?

Have you/they tried something like Kunaki or EditHouse?

Songbird Productions is selling repros of IS3 and F3AD. If you want anything other than those, eBay is fine, but some stuff is overpriced (Don't look up The Next Tetris).

Edit: wait this post is from 2014???

Indeed, it is from 2014. What he was specifically looking for was this: https://www.nuon-dome.com/demos/nuongd.html. It was essentially a Nuon homebrew compilation disc that was released back in 2005. It's been out of print for quite some time now.

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
