Title: Release 7.0
Post by: mindslight on April 12, 2017, 02:18:15 pm

Hi  :),

A new update is available with dual CPU support and Sega Film/Cinepak support  :D

You can also change Jo Engine option on your makefile (I removed all options from jo/conf.h)

Warning, after update your program may not compile.

Don't worry, just follow the instruction on jo/conf.h or look at the makefile on Demo1  ;)

The video playback feature is great, congratulations on that! ;D
What software did you use to convert the video to the Cinepak format?
By the way, thanks for adding my little bit of contribution in there :P

It seems like I can't compile even after changing the makefile. I keep getting :

1 [main] ? 4444 init_cheap : Couldn't reserve 9194692 bytes of space for cygwin's heap, Win32 error 487
c:... (the file path) \Compiler\TOOLS\mkisofs.exe (4444): *** AllocationBase 0x0, BaseAddress 0x616E0000, RegionSize 0x380000, State 0x100000
make : *** [sl_coff.iso] Error 1

I'm using Windows 10, currently on my Surface Pro 3.
Any ideas why?

did you try to reboot ?

That has also happened to me before and rebooting solved the issue, sometimes the Win32 memory management fails to allocate memory for Cygwin for some unknown reason  ???

Ok, rebooting did it! I find it kind of surprising since I didn't install anything. Anyway, the shooter now works, I will try to play more with the new version of the engine tomorrow.
