Continuing the discussion from [WIP] Kong:

Trying to get this working - but it ain’t! :frowning_face:

…if I manually edit in the durations, ie.

0x2A, 0x80, 0x1C, 0x84, 0x0E, 0x88, 0x0E, 0x8A, 0x0E, 0x88, 0x00

everything works fine, but trying to get it working without them:

0x2A, 0x80, 0x1C, 0x84, 0x0E, 0x88, 0x8A, 0x88, 0x00

What I want is for the duration 0x0E to apply to all of the last 3 notes… what am I doing wrong?

@uXe, I am sorry to tell you that after fixing some bugs I simply do not have enough room for these sound effects. :frowning:

You might be better than me at saving some memory and I would love to see you squeeze this into my code base if you can. Code can be found here > https://github.com/Press-Play-On-Tape/DonkeyKong

All those auto &arduboy = this->context.arduboy; have bound to be wasting space on your flash. Typically you’d just declare arduboy a global and extern it everywhere.

In a codebase this large probably tons of places you could save space.

#4

No doubt. I have used all of the tricks in my bag but I am sure there are plenty more!

Just for interests sake, I changes the definition of Arduboy2Ext to extern and modified all of the other .h files to suit. The compilation went from 28,494 to 28,864 (370 bytes more!) .

Like you, I was expecting a reduction!

#6

That seems strange? Do you have the source code from both so I can compile them side by side and disassemble and see what’s going on?
