I'm gonna post this here because I figure, besides Pokecommunity, this'll probably get the most attention here. Plus I wanna see what you guys do with it.  Pokemon Generation I Graphics Compressor The instructions are on the page. It picks which interpretation compresses the best and gives you that one (except for in the secret debug mode, which isn't that hard to find as long as you know how to _REQUEST it). It doesn't do that very efficiently though, as it just tries every single one and then gives you the smallest one. Note: This page may at some time move, or be removed altogether. I'll try to edit the post should that happen. |

So I (fairly) recently acquired a touch screen register from my work Arby's. It has Windows 98 SE on it right now. Here's some specs:
Any question/concerns/comments? |

Fuck yeah, that'd sound kickass (one of my managers at work suggested that too). Problem is, I don't have a car anymore (before and after). So I drive my mom's to and from work. Also it's rather big and clunky (35x28x8 cm, and I didn't weight it). Plus, I just want to it be a portable computer since I don't have one. I kinda doubt there is. Is there any way I could build one with a sensor to replace the current one, or buy one like that? Any recommendations for Linux distros with those specs? I'm not sure though, Windows 98 sorta has a nostalgic feel to it. Besides, if I ever need Linux, I have it on my desktop (dual boot Windows XP/Ubuntu 10.04). |

| My regular desktop (Warning: 3968x1080 at 24bpp == more than a 6MB image) My "tablet computer" My old Windows 95 computer (uses the generic image I had as my cell phone background and my old Ubuntu live CD before I got a new internal HD for my desktop; I should change it) Windows for Workgroups 3.11 (in DOSBox on my desktop) Not pictured: My desktop in Ubuntu mode (too lazy to reboot), and Windows 3.0 with Multimedia Extensions in DSx86 for my Nintendo DS (it's rather crappy anyways; 16 color mode means I don't use a background). |

Unless there's a Windows program that can do that. OR!, if anyone knows how to make a small C program that does that with the Win32 API, and it works with the Win16 API, I have Open Watcom and can try to compile it myself (C please). If you have a DS flashcart though, just google DSx86, download it from that site, and then go to the compatibility wiki, click on "Windows 3 with Multimedia Extensions", and there's a download link for it there. Also my old Windows XP install. This isn't how it usually, looked, this is just to show how unorganized I was. For a while I just had the icon spacing regular and the default Windows XP background, but when I finally decided to start changing it, I turned the desktop icons off. |

Originally posted by SukasaMy Windows XP computer actually still has one parallel and serial port each. Unfortunately, since Windows NT does not allow writing directly to the hardware, I'm sure almost no software written for them work (since most software would have been before Windows XP). Of course, I use inpout32.dll for my custom parallel port projects, so I don't have to worry about that. As far as really old computer go, I still haven't found a better use for my Windows 95 computer than.... Windows 95!  I've found almost nothing that can deal with only 16MB of RAM and still run smooth. And the one or two I did find, either there's no GUI, or the GUI was made by someone so you can tell it's rather mediocre.But on the topic of my specific tablet, does anyone have any other ideas/thoughts/answers to my question about it (besides Operating System which I'll decide when the time comes). |

| Here are some pictures. A few internal, and one external one. Don't be fooled by the picture, it's not quite THAT dim. It could be a little brighter, but it's easily visible. It's easier to see it looking down on it than looking up on it though. |

Like I mentioned in my first post, I was looking at an AP client. No waste of a USB port or the PCI port, and (I'm assuming) no drivers necessary.
Originally posted by stag019Here's a link to one on eBay. It'd easily be small enough to fit inside the case; I'd just have to figure out how to wire it into the ethernet port, but if there's an ethernet cable plugged in, override that. |

Originally posted by stag019 Case on vs. case off (PCI slot is in lower right corner). Compare. As you can see, I don't really know if it would fit or not. I'd probably have to measure stuff. |

| My last thread kinda got overlooked, so let's try this. ZIP file (7KB) A tutorial on how to extend all the different data structures within Pokemon Generation I to add new ones. Includes an automatic exe file to do it for you, as well as the C source code. Should be compilable on other system with minimal tweaking. Combined with my graphics compressor, you should be able to add Pokemon and completely customize them now. The biggest problem though is that only 152 Pokemon fit into the Pokedex's RAM (19 bytes * 8 bits per byte = 152 bits). Once I figure that out, it should work perfectly. Other things I may need to add to this is bank checking (currently the banks the graphics are in are "hard coded"), and custom palettes (you can select which of the current palette set you want now). But someone please give it a try!  |

Originally posted by Lunaria If you mean one byte, yes. But in Generation I there's only 151 and adding more means a whole lot of repointing. There's a lot more to a single Pokemon than you'd think, even with the generic "base stats data structure" hunking a lot of it together. This program/tutorial is here to streamline the process. Also, the program itself is updated to make the last byte of the base stats data structure to be the bank you'll find the image in. Thanks to Sawakita for the (simple, but still extremely helpful) ASM. The C source code is also updated, but I haven't put it in the tutorial yet. "Of course, with the program, I was able to automatically put the default bank for each directly in the base stats structure with only two functions and an automatic loop. That would be rather difficult to explain in a tutorial without Adding 151 steps. "P.S. I believe Ckoolboyman did actually go through the trouble of making Pokemon ID's two bytes for Pokemon Prism, but don't quote me on that. |

My post in the desktop screenshot thread is rather relevant here.

Originally posted by tatangaNo, Sawakita released his tool a few hours before I planned on releasing mine. Originally posted by KeitaroYes, any image is possible to be edited. The trainers have to be in the same bank, but the last byte of the base stats data structure controls which bank the front/backpics are in, like I mentioned in my second post. As far as the back pictures, yes, it will still get magnified 2x like the current way the game does it. I plan on fixing this eventually. And in Pokemon there's a lot of free space; you're really unlikely to need to expand the ROM. |

Cool, cool, Linux and Androids.  Anyways, Originally posted by Metal_Man88I tried my best guess at measuring (hard to measure the space of the inside of something with the cover on). I'm thinking 3 to 4.5cm tall is all it can be. And it can't stick out more than 2cm past the end of the pins or it'll be in the fan. Not to mention that if I was gonna use up my PCI slot, I was hoping on a Bluetooth/Wifi combo card, but can't find any that support Windows 98. Not to mention size. I still like my AP-Client idea, only problem being that I can't figure out how to get a sensor in the ethernet port (or have some sort of physical switch)... Edit: I figured out how I could do it with the audio output. The term is a "shunt". See here for where I could buy it online. Biggest problem though: shipping from them is $7 flat, no matter how much or little you get (unless you order over a certain weight or something). I can't justify paying $7 for a little $0.85 socket. Now I need to either find one for an ethernet port, or learn how it works and make one myself. |

| Yeah dog, I gotchu. How much would we be looking to raise total? |

| It took up 3 bytes, same amount as when it's empty. Someone should probably explain how auto_increment works, because there seems to be a lot of misconceptions in this thread. I'd do it, but I'm bad at explaining things. |

| $50/month sounds rather reasonable to me for someone in need of such a service, but I wouldn't fork that out unless I had as much popularity as say this place. As far as how much it's within reach of this board, how much do the ads usually raise a month? And how much do we currently pay? |
