Cool script for visualizing sprite Tile ID's and info FCEUX

LUA scripts let you draw additional things on top of the screen for fceux typically by analzying memory. I pulled this one from the nesdev boards. 

 

In feceux you run this by going to File-Lua->new lua script window. Click on the browse button and navigate to the place you saved the script file. Then press run. 

nes-sprites.lua

 

Here is an example. Anything that is a sprite has a red box over it. Hovering your cursor over the red box gives you more information about the sprite including its hex x.y coordinates, its pallete and other attributes and of course its tile id.

Great find!  As someone who struggles with tracing any graphics this is quite helpful
