Hello everyone. As my topic states I am completely new to this. My interest was peaked at a local anime con where a member of this community (Lucradan) was giving a short class on nes development. Thank you dan for giving the class! I'll PM as well.
I've been hesitant to jump in as there is just sooo much in which to take. I've been lurking a bit since the class, here and on the internet. I guess it's time to just get my feet wet, so, here I am. I'll try to make sure I do a search for info first before I ask questions.
From my class I got a 'list' of things to DL to begin. One of the things I was looking for was a way to put these on an actual cart. In the class I mentioned my reason for coming in was the idea of 'editing' my games (theme change/name changes for friends) and putting them on a cart. Yes, I know, I'm a very long way from needing something like that. I however did find a few flash carts out there but I was really looking for something using actual eproms. If anyone reads this and knows what I'm looking for that would be great.
This was the list I was given to get me started:
Notepad++
ASM6
an image editor
YY-CHR
NES screen tool
FCEUX
Famitracker
Any way, if you made it this far, thanks for reading.
I'm excited at the idea of eventually creating my own game, just like I would talk about with my friends when I was a child playing my nes. I'll be a leach for a good bit but I hope to one day contribute for others.
Thanks,
Kentucky
