My Custom Game DEMO! Is Here! [locked]

This is a demo movie, and the demo ROM for my game. It requires a NES emulator (which Im not providing, because its against the rules, so thats on you). Simply unzip the zip file, and open it up in your emulator. There is a catch to watching the Movie however, You must download a certain emulator to watch it, but you can get it here, it is RockNES (it should be the last one in best emulators)

Description:
Demo: ncludes all of Brinstar, but I have blocked off the other three elavator's because Norfair, Kraid, and Tourian, aren't yet completed.

Item you can get: You can get three Missile Tanks, Ice, and Long beams, but there is a bug that still needs worked out: the Maru Mari won'r appear! Note: All items have been moved from there original locations (except the Ice Beam, and Varia Suit)

Changes:
I have changed the pallettes, most of the Room design, and enemy locations; a remix of the original so to speak...

Enjoy :)

The link doesn't work, at least not for me, but i'm using IExplorer, it may be that.

Actually, (I think) emulators are usually perfectly legal.

The emulator it self is leagal, you just can't make a profit off of any of the games. Emulators are leagal unless you make a profit. However, ROM are leagal if: You allready own that game, or if you delete it within twenty-four hours (if you don't own the game). If you don't own the game that the ROM is of, and don't delete it within twenty four hours, then it becomes ileagal.

Edit: Oh, you said you think that they are leagal,... ok, I miss read that...

No, ROMS are NEVER legal, even if you own the game or delete it within 24 hours. I thought Radix cleared this up in a different topic.

They are only legal if you have the hardware to dump the ROM image yourself, and therefore do so. Otherwise, it's out of the question.

I haven't been here in a while (got a butt load of new games, with my christmas money!) I'm not going to bother posting the new version... Just not enough people have downlaoded my demo... so I think it would be pointless to post something that know one would play... Oh, well....

Here's a tip, don't move items vertically. If possible, don't move them at all.

Just letting everbody (who cares :)) that I'm not dead! I haven't been here in a while, because... I have other stuff to do. I'm also posting this to keep my account active. I'm not really in the metroid mood right now, Ive been playing a lot of zelda, and spending a majority of my time at purezc. com. Sorry I'm unfaithful; I cheated on you guys Embarassed

May I make a suggestion to the head person-guy?

You should have a main forum for going/ coming... but if you do, I'm sorry I overlooked it...

I think he means a board just for topics like "I'm leaving!" and "I'm back!" and similar post count+1 statements of the obvious. Rolling Eyes

Bah... post count+1... you are sooooooo not a programmer. :P

Code:

void spam(int &postCount)
{
     cout << postCount++;
     if(postCount < DESIRED)
     {
          spam(postCount);
     }
}

I never claimed to be*. :? More to the point, the concept of adding 1 is hardly restricted to programming, let alone a specific language, and this was an effective enough construct to express it (and, moreover, one I've seen frequently at messageboards, at which not everyone is assumed to be liable to burst into spontaneous code).

I was going to make some irritated comment about how nowadays intelligence/worth and computer skills are often considered synonymous despite many who claim these skills having the communication skills of a slug, but after seeing that torturous sentence I just wrote I think I'd better not. Still, with all the horribly unreadable posts that get perpetrated by people who can't be bothered to spell or punctuate this seems a rather silly thing for you to pick on. :?

*Well, except possibly when I was the undisputed leader in my AP CompSci class. But that was fifteen years ago and it was in Pascal, so leave me alone.

I needed it to modify postCount efficiently within the recursive calls. Of course, it's probably just as easy to return the thing but whatever.

Ahh, of course. That saves a couple of lines of code. I was just surprised to see it because passing by reference is usually about saving the memory and time involved in copying a large object. Hmm... C uses four bytes for an int now, right? I wonder if a memory address takes more or fewer than that.

Heh. Feels like we're trying to speed-run a C program.

It's not C; it's C++. C does not handle passing by reference. YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS! And the size of an int is dependent on the compiler. I might as well make it a short unsigned int since there's no way anyone will get over 65,534 without getting banned.

Oops. Hey, I haven't read up on C or C++ in years -- if I need to program something, I just use whatever's convenient. As far as I knew, passing by reference was now built directly into X's boots rather than being a benefit of Dr. Light's capsules.

Wait, that's air-dashing. You get the idea.

Okay, so the cout should have been a clue.
