Dynamically Loading Ring Animation Frames into VRAM in Sonic 1

Can you show me a VRAM dump where the rings graphics are?

 

I noticed that the rings continue to animate when you die, which isn't supposed to happen in Sonic 1. I was able to solve this by inserting this after the LoadRingFrame label:

Code:

        cmpi.b    #6,(v_player+obRoutine).w     ; has Sonic just died?
        bhs.s    .noringloss            ; if so, don't animate rings

Otherwise, this is a fantastic tutorial.

 

I can, actually, and I'm very baffled by this. (Look down at the bottom.)

 

Turns out that they applied the tile ID change of 27B2 to 27B6 to the wrong object. It was meant for RingLoss, not Rings.

The result of the error is that the regular rings are displaying the lost ring frame and the regular ring sparkles' tile ID gets shifted alongside that and ends up displaying crap from the sprite table, and the lost rings are displaying the regular ring frame.

 

Heyo so, I'm having a similar problem as B.T.H was having, but instead, the rings look like this when i lose them..

 

Looks like it's reading invalid mappings data. Did you follow this step?

 

yes i did remove the lines, i also forgot to tell l'm using hivebrain 2005

 

You didn't remove the second line.

 

Im having an error in this part, i want to build to see if i got an error, but this error appears:

 

No. Thats not how you do it at old disasms

It should be $7BC which multiplied by $20 gives you $F780

 

So... i got a funny error lol.
If you lose for example 3 rings, only appears 1.

 

I dont think thats related to this
