If you're talking about for the first overlay, then that's for a very good reason... it can only BE 192KB because it has the 64KB regular CDROM subprogram as part of it (error program). That's why for the first overlay, I make it as a "bootstrap", so to speak... usually just to show a logo or something, and THEN load a normal overlay which can be 256KB.

Here's the overlay 1 code for Jungle Bros, for example:

Code: [Select]

#include "huc.h"

main()
{
  set_font_pal(0);
  set_font_color(1,0);
  load_default_font();

  put_string("PRODUCED BY OR",9,10);
  put_string("UNDER LICENSE FROM",7,13);
  put_string("FROZEN  UTOPIA",9,16);
  ad_reset();
  ad_trans(2, 0x0, 4, 0x0);
  cd_execoverlay(3);
}
It displays a Genesis-like startup screen, loads the custom ADPCM data bank from overlay 2, then does a cd-execoverlay() with the third overlay, which is another program.

Thanks Man ,For explanation ..   
I ll test That..

I ran into the problem when expanding msong.c, which was originally the first overlay of MSR... it's got the title program, which at the time included a debug menu and some fancy option stuff. I don't remember how it got so large, but when it did, that's when it ran into the 192KB issue.

Msr has not only bad sides ..  

But your solution word fine, tanks a lot man .
This issue needs to be documented on your new huc version.

I'm going to make note of it on obeybrew's docs.

[touko]

Yes would be cool .
If you can add more tips for begginers too .

[nodtveidt]

I'll try.
