CPS3 Tile Compression Part 2

[James]

I take it that you included Haze's CPS-3 code into your own build, yes? Good to know that the speed is fine.

 

 

Yes, Not sure what it will be like once everything is fully emulated though.

Theres a couple of links here to a Mame32 with CPS3 stuff enabled so you dont have to wait long, runs SF III quite nicely, though the colours are messed up of course

CPS3 Tile Compression Part 3

 

Sean’s Stage in SFIII New Generation uses a different compression scheme to the other games. For some reason, Capcom decided that one stage, in one game would use a different system. The Compression used on this level supports 8bpp tiles instead of 6, thus allowing for more colours, but a less efficient compression scheme. I’ve spent some time looking at this, and mostly figured out how it works. There are still a few problems, but I now have reocgnizable background tiles at least.
