OK, so you can all call me Geebs, Mario, Gary, or Jerkwad if you feel necessary. But I am/was the author of MarioNES and 80Five.
NES emulation is the only project and have stayed with(though sporadically) over any real amount of time.
I like to start projects and never see them finish for some reason.
Well, I had started working on 80Five again, to try to implement the Game Genie, or something of some sort of use. But it had been a long time since I coded anything and I had deleted all my NES tech docs a while back. Well I was getting somewhere, but then my hard drive crashed and I lost it all.
So I am starting over. Maybe I can make something a little more accurate. I still have the source from the last releases of MarioNES and 80Five, but honestly, that code is atrocious. I have gotten much better at writing clean code since I wrote those. And I am switching to using FreeBasic instead of Visual Basic. So its going to be a whole new experience and emulator. Its supposedly easy to convert C++ to FreeBASIC(Maybe I can learn C++ converting some of the example code and things you guys show me, because I dont know C++ at all)
I expect you will all see a lot more of me in the future as I will be asking a lot of questions, its been a while since I did anything that intensive that has to do with the NES or 6502, but I am excited. There is also a small learning curve I need to get over when it comes to FreeBASIC, Its a lot like basic, but somewhat different so its gonna be a bit harder.
But yeah, just wanted to let you all know that I am working on it, and introduce myself.
