    SGDK - A free and open development kit for the Sega Mega Drive

    Project mention: FC8 – Faster 68K Decompression (2016) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-29

    I'm working on a game for Amiga (another 68k-based platform) and settled on ZX0 to decompress assets on the fly: https://github.com/einar-saukas/ZX0

    I was originally using LZ4, but I switched to ZX0 after learning that it can do in-place decompression, which means I don't have to allocate separate memory for the compressed data. I'm very happy with the compression ratio, and decompression of large assets (~48kb) only takes a few frames on a 7MHz 68000.

    Also of note is LZ4W, included in Sega Genesis Dev Kit (and discussed in the comments section of OP's article), a variant of LZ4 that only uses word-aligned operations. That makes it much faster on the 68000, which can struggle to efficiently handle 8-bit data. More info here: https://github.com/Stephane-D/SGDK/blob/master/bin/lz4w.txt

  • 240pTestSuite

    A homebrew software suite for video game consoles developed to help in the evaluation of upscalers, upscan converters, line doublers and of course TV processing of 240p video. The Wii and Dreamcast versions have modes for 480i and 480p evaluation as well.

    Project mention: What CRT should I buy for the n64? | /r/n64 | 2023-12-09

    If I might add: using 240pTestSuite or something similar (there are specific hardwares to output a grid signal and the likes) is a good way to check for convergence issues or bad picture quality overall.
