More retro music players!

Juergen Wothke has been hard at work again, and this time has made a unified player for various old school retro consoles, including Famicom (NES), Game Gear, Game Boy, Hudson Entertainment System, MSX, ZX Spectrum etc.. It is compatible with .NFS, .KSS, .GBR, .GBS, .HES, .AY, .SGC file formats.

This one is called webNEZ, and can be seen working below!

CODEF interpretation of Javascript HES player

The latest Javascript retro music player by Juergen Wothke was released last nigh, so once again, I did the obligatory CODEF implementation on it! :-)

The is a Javascript player for .HES files for the old school Hudson Entertainment System.

As always with Juergens' wotk, the method of use is very simple, and adds to an already huge list of retro old school music players! Enjoy!

SEGA .dsf .ssf web music player in javascript

Another day, another javascript music player! :-)

Yet again giving many thanks to the hard work of retro music legend Juergen Wothke, yet another old school machine can now have its music files played via your browser! This time it's the turn of the Sega Master System and Dreamcast "dsflib" music files.

Once again I have "reworked" this to be called simply from within CODEF, and an example can be seen below!

N64 .usflib music player in Javascript

Thanks again to the hard work of retro music legend Juergen Wothke, yet another old school machine can now have its music files played via your browser! This time it's the turn of the Nintendo N64 "usflib" music files.

As usual I have "reworked" this to be called simply from within CODEF, and an example can be seen below!

Updating parts of my website....

One of the subdomains on my website, was completely written in Flash 5, which as well all know is no longer welcome on modern browsers! So, over the last few days, I have re-written the old flash main menu of the "Oh Lucky You" website in HTML5 using CODEF. 

For those not in the know, "Oh Lucky You" is my tribute/fan site devoted to the former BBC Radio 1 DJs Mark Radcliffe and Marc Riley (AKA Mark n' Lard).

TRSI Super Soccer Amiga Cracktro

I fancied another CODEF remake tonight... it had just been too long! :-)

It's been ages since I last tackled an Amiga screen, so thought it made as good an choice as any, so here is my remake of the TRSI Super Soccer cracktro!

A fairly straightforward screen to remake, but some fun nonetheless!

I hope you enjoy this remake.

C64 IK Screens GFX Competition

As you may be aware, there has recently been a number of entries on the CSDB.DK website for new graphic backdrops for the Commodore 64 International Karate game....

I decided that in order to continue my "celebration" of the release of the latest version of Tiny'R'SID, I'd link a collection of these graphic screens together, along with the SID version of the great theme tune from the game! I know, I know, kind of lame, but I'm sure no-one will mind an excuse for some cool GFX and a great SID soundtrack! :-)

25 years of Yie Ar Kung Fu

After the recent release of the latest version of TinyR'SID by Jürgen Wothke - I chose to make a screen to demo the enhanced SID reproduction.

Oxyrons' 25 Years of Yie Ar Kung Fu was my choice, as (a) it required very little code, (b) it has great graphics, and (c) features one of my fave SID tunes ever!

CODEF Demo Maker v1.31 (UPDATE)

Thanks to Antoine Santo (AKA NoNameNo), and his suggestion of CCapture the other day, I have finally managed to get a Screenshot function to work on my CODEF Demo Maker project from a couple of years back! :-) http://codef.namwollem.co.uk/codef_demo_maker.html Now on version 1.31, you can now save a screenshot as you create your own thing without the need for any javascript or HTML5 knowledge!

After you have made your creation, simply click on the SCREENSHOT button, and a .TAR file will be downloaded, which when unZIPped contains a .JPG screenshot of the main canvas! Enjoy!

PLEASE NOTE: It appears that since the last fews updates, Chrome actually lets you take a screen shot of a canvas anyway! Right-click and select COPY IMAGE AS... and save directly as a JPEG!

iOS Accelerometer and CODEF

Some more experimentation with iOS and CODEF! (It SHOULD work on Android, but I do not have a device to test with myself - however a member of the CODEF Facebook group has kindly helped me test this, and states that it works ok).

Using the accelerometer, and some CODEF, fused with some old school tracking sprites, run this, tilt your mobile device screen, and watch the sprites move around and bounce on the edges of your screen!

To be fair, this screenshot doesn't do it justice - but gives you an idea! :-)

NOTE: It WILL work on a desktop PC, but obviously if no suitable accelerometer device is present, all figures will be NULL and no sprites will be displayed.
