Discussion: Rygar AGA Edition

I've been unknown in the Amiga scene with my mods until just relatively recent with the release of the Amiga game Golden Wing by Coppersky, and the Axel F, (thanx Galahad/FLT for your comment!!), mod reconstruction experiment I did some years earlier.

You'll find my uploads here, it's not particularly much yet though .

https://modarchive.org/index.php?req...es&query=89011

Music creation was the biggest reason for me I felt to buy my first Amiga, (A500), followed in later years by an A1200 equipped with Blizzard 1260, and DigiBooster Pro as my then most exciting software. Though Protracker 2.3D is my all time favourite.

Within most of my Amiga-only decades I've been like a lone wolf in the hidden, with strong intentions to release mods for the Amiga scene. But my perfectionist inside me never really let me feel satisfied with anything I did. And mostly I gave those hundreds of tunes I made no beginnings and/or ends.

Though now after the highly positive responses I've got for my Protracker mods online, I finally realised that I've had set the requirements slightly too high. Sickly high perhaps.

But my basic reasoning is that Protracker has many limitations. Some things is just not possible, or not ment to be possible to do. Just as it is with the Amiga. But on the other hand, that's what makes it so addictive I think, to find ways to go beyond.

Only the sky is the limit. . . ...and the amount of chipmem!

Believe me - you're known now, you wont be short of Amiga prod work.

Your songs are of the highest quality and much above the standard required!

And whatever happens - I WILL FIND YOU THE CHIPMEM!

Very Good! Congratulations!

[Tigerskunk]

I hate coding all the "infrastructure" crap like title screens, game over, lives count, and especially the hiscore list in asm.

Wish I had done this in C back then.

[mcgeezer]

Here we are... an actual game!

I've worked on the loss of lives and transition routines so that the Rygar is now an actual game that can be played!

Lots of bugs still but that's only natural at this stage... I suspect February will all just be about bug hunting and enemy/round configuration.... might not get all levels done by the compo closing date I'm afraid so it may go in as a playable demo.

Enjoy...

I agree Graeme, loads and loads of people will play your cool port

Anyone who doesn't know who "Amiten" is, or the shocking recent events, will look him up and might end up doing the opposite of what you've written; if they're stupid enough.

Forget about him, it's not worth giving him free publicity; especially in a class game like yours.

[mcgeezer]

Sorry about that, too much ale.

[Tigerskunk]

Yeah, let's not give that dude free publicity.

[Hewitson]

Yeah, I agree that this game is far above having any connection to do with him. Having said that, I did laugh when I saw the message.

It's what happens when I drink too much Peroni... I've done worse on a Saturday night.

A couple of years ago my best mate wound me up so much about winning the Fantasy Football League that on the Saturday night before the final games of the season I hacked his FFL account and changed his entire team.

I then did a Hitler/Downfall parody video to go with it for extra humiliation in our Whatsapp group.

He didn't speak to me for weeks.

[wodan]

It looks really good in not that much time (I'm assuming you didn't do this full time), makes you wonder how much time they took for the commercial games back then.

[malko]

But, but.... it's an arcade conversion... so the text is certainly present on the original

More seriously :

[mcgeezer]

I just had to upload this... simply awesome by DJ METUNE.

The little clicks are to do with my system not being fast enough to record and emulate the Amiga.

Looks awesome Graeme

One small thing which I'm sure you're aware of; in the arcade version when you jump on top of someone Rygar then jumps / flips; it's not just a normal jump.

Damn, even in my wildest dreams, I did not think we could get as close to the Arcade version ... and the sound ... I'm on the ass ... really great taf ...

Just congratulate McGeezer and DJMetune for their work on this project. keep it up guys!

gratz!

I had some problems with this too, but solved it by setting Graphics API to Direct3d (9 or 11) under Miscellanoeus setting.

That solved most of my performance problems.

[mcgeezer]

Tonight I added more sound into the game...

I had to disable Cycle Exact mode to get the recording to work...my system isn't quite powerful enough.

I tried to run this on my real A1200 tonight and I have a memory leak somewhere which I need to fix - very frustrating!

[DJ METUNE]

The issue here with the sound effects taking over one of the music channels sometimes, (muting one note from the chords in the ingame music), will not occur with the next music version. The chords will instead be mixed to use only one channel instead of two. So the sound effects gonna have two clean channels to use freely in polyphonic.

The music mod will eat slightly more chipmem though, but I'll optimize it ofcourse to keep the filesize down as much as possible without lowering the quality.

It's a must to have it like that anyways. Because during the waterfall periods, there should, (to keep it faithful to the original), also be a water sound playing simultaneously as the music and the normal sound effects. There should better not in that case be any polyphonic mode for the normal SFX during those special water periods.

For the intro and interval music etc that needs to play more music notes simultaneously, all four channels is engaged for the music. As there's no SFX playing there anyways.

Always maximal use of the audio channels in various but wisely ways! :-)
