 Arguments
  • gdl is the pointer to the display list
  • sid is the status ID {0, 4, 8, or 12}

What This Macro Does
It assigns the value specified in the val argument to the status area (Status[sid]) specified by the sid argument. The status value is referenced for texture loading and making conditional branching decisions.

This macro is one of the following three new S2DEX microcode macros that make up the conditional DL branching GBI:
  • gSPSetStatus
  • gSPSelectDL
  • gSPSelectBranchDL
 For detailed information on S2DEX microcode's GBI macros and data structures, please see the "S2DEX Microcode" area of the N64 Programming Manual.
