Our website received a big facelift, please check it out at https://rgbds.gbdev.io! Thanks to @ISSOtm and @avivace for the work on this.
While some pages have been moved around, all URLs under /docs
have been preserved.
Deprecated:
rgbasm -h
and-L
will soon become the default behavior; please usergbasm -H
and-l
respectively to opt into the current behavior.rgbgfx -h
has been renamed to the less confusingrgbgfx -Z
.
Added:
- RGBGFX has been massively overhauled! Please check out the new docs for full details, but notably:
- The alpha channel is now handled in a sensible and useful way.
- Palettes can be manually specified without having to muck with PNG embedded palettes using
-c
! rgbgfx -r
can also "reverse" the process and generate a PNG from the binary data.- "At-files" allow storing the flags e.g. next to the image, instead of centralized within your Makefile/build script.
- State-of-the-art packing algorithm ensures optimal palette generation 😎
- Special thanks to @aaaaaa123456789 for
randtilegen
, used for testing; @eievui5, @MarkSixtyFour, and @Rangi42 for review and testing! - There's an egg somewhere in there?
- Unsigned right shift operator
>>>
! - Binary AND
&
can now be constant if applied to a symbol with the right alignment. - RGBLINK will now report floating sections' names when using
-O
. OPT r
- A
.clang-format
, though it it only applied to C++ files; we are gradually transitioning away fromcheckpatch
style.
Removed:
PRINTT
,PRINTI
,PRINTV
,PRINTF
(usePRINT
/PRINTLN
instead)_PI
SET
as an assignment operator (use=
instead)rgbgfx -D
,-f
, and-F
were not useful anymore
Changed:
man
pages are now all in a single directory; this affects the release tarballs!
Fixed:
rgblink -S
rejected a lot of valid arguments.rgblink -O
could "forget" ROM0 if no such sections were defined, offsetting the entire file.- Whitespace is now trimmed in macro arguments, even after line continuations.
- All
*UTC*
symbols could contain local time instead on some systems. contrib/gbdiff.bash
correctly handles spaces in its arguments (oops)- Version number will always be properly updated when building with CMake.
- Math equations could render incorrectly in
rgbasm(5)
. - RGBDS should be portable to more systems now.
- RGBASM has been optimized slightly yet again.
