Mr.Rubinshtein

is it possible to enhance the graphics?

Mr.Rubinshtein

Mr.Rubinshtein

specifically rendering

PegPeregoGaucho

are transparent pixels blue or did you choose that color?

AdrienTD

The blue is index 0 in the palette, which I think is considered as transparent when being rendered (it happens that the index 0 is set to blue in the palette, but this is probably ignored by the game)

AdrienTD

I'm not sure, maybe, but if the GBA would be able to handle it...

Mr.Rubinshtein

well consider that its going to be emulated

Mr.Rubinshtein

on pc

Mr.Rubinshtein

so i guess there would be endless possibilities?

AdrienTD

Yes

AdrienTD

We can also remake XXL GBA on Unreal 5 with ultra-realistic raytracing, this is also possible :TotalKappa:

Mr.Rubinshtein

Mr.Rubinshtein

i meant like with the tool you are making

Mr.Rubinshtein

enhance the rendering and quality

AdrienTD

Because it's a GBA game, there will be some limits, emulated or not

AdrienTD

What is possible is to increase the size of the ROM: XXL GBA is only 8 MB, and the GBA supports cartridges with 32 MB of data without the need of bank switching

Mr.Rubinshtein

oh nice

Mr.Rubinshtein

which means that you can increase the rom up to 32 mb

Mr.Rubinshtein

and well that means that there will be room for enhancing graphics

Mr.Rubinshtein

sadly as i understood its impossible to go beyond 32 mb right?
