That will convert the ppg file (Which is the actual program, the smallish ASM proggy is just the decomresser/launcher). Ok, so it will patch up sd2data, then run sd2data to play the game. The "" after the "sd2data" means ghostbuster will overwrite the ppg file. So that should slove the memory problems. Also, be sure to archive everything ;-) |
TheFreeman2005 Probe Posted: 19 Oct 2004 19:55 GMT Total Posts: 9 | well i gave that a shot and well.... it says done after it, but in th bottom corner i get: not enough memory. (sd2data) and everything is archived... :-D do you have any idea or do i try the dance again? (reinstall etc...) |

EDIT: Then post those results and we'll be able to figure it out.
EDIT 2: SD2 may be the most graphically advanced 3d game for the 89t, IMHO, it's very fun.

To spiral: FAT engine is not full 3D. Its a raycaster and only allowes horizontal movement but you can not tilt camera. SD2 is full 3D. Though, due to proc speed limitations texture mapped polys would produce very bad framerate. So basically on the quality side FAT is the only choice to create a game (SD2 came out really nice too). The best 3D you can seen on your calc is actually produced by David Coz's Edit3D, a calc based 3D model editor. The program comes with some sample models which have as many as 400 polys and look really cool on the calc screen.
