help needed for simple demo
hi all,
first of all I have to tell that I'm pretty newbie in the scene, so bear with me.
I have coded a simple scroller in assembler located at $c000 and it works. now I would like to add some music located at $1003 but I don't know how to proceed. I need a small routine that could be called with JSR and that returns to the scroller after some bits of music is played.
I have tried with the following routine but it doesn't work since it continues playing without returning to the scroller:
c010 lda $d012
cmp #$80
bne $c010
inc $d020
jsr $1003
dec $d020
rts
can anybody help me? |

It's odd that you would say the file didn't work. When I provided the link, naturally, I downloaded the file. I looked at the directory first and didn't pay attention to the file being 0 blocks, and loaded it anyway.
It loaded fine for me. I didn't change my emulation settings from NTSC to PAL, not sure if that is an issue. I just know it worked for me and I had used it to walk through the steps I gave.
AFAIK, it's a working file.
And I'm glad you got it working ;)
Happy coding :D |

@ The Phantom
It's odd, I've tried PAl and NTSC and tried to change 1541 II drive with 1541 but the result with that file is "File not found" error. I use VICE 2.4 with a Linux box.
@ Mr. SID
I report a success in packaging the bundle with exomizer ! good tool and cross platform.
@ Dr. J
unluckily I was unable to use Bongo Cruncher with success, the resulting .prg file does not run. I've tried to use the the option "Use My load address as SAFE load address" and set it to $4000 (the location of the scroller) but the resulting file does not run.

beware, I can take you seriously and send you my rubbish for real! :-) |

@Technotron: Bongo should get the jumping address of the program
when you use "only crunch" option. why you gave it $4000 for your
scroller i don't know..anyway if you succeed get Exomizer work
so its great mate |

Interesting with this ECA Compactor - works fine for me in VICE under Windows. By the way, anyone knows what STN might stand for? |

Hi all,
now that I have solved the problem of the scroller I've got another problem.
I would like to show a koala image with a simple assembler routine. I have found one in a tutorial. It supposes that the image should be loaded from $2000 onwards.
* = $0801
lda #$00
sta $d020
sta $d021 ; set border and screen colour to black
tax
copyloop:
lda $3f40,x ; copy colours to screen RAM
sta $0400,x
lda $4040,x
sta $0500,x
lda $4140,x
sta $0600,x
lda $4240,x
sta $0700,x
lda $4328,x ; copy colours to colour RAM
sta $d800,x
lda $4428,x
sta $d900,x
lda $4528,x
sta $da00,x
lda $4628,x
sta $db00,x
dex
bne copyloop
lda #$3b ; bitmap mode
ldx #$18 ; multi-colour mode
ldy #$18 ; screen at $0400, bitmap at $2000
sta $d011
stx $d016
sty $d018
mainloop:
jmp mainloop ; keep going...
the fact is that it doesn't work for me. could someone help me with this routine or could someone give me another one?
thanks in advance for your reply. |

if it doesnt work, you should fix it.
or you should be a bit more specific than "it doesn't work". |

it doesn't work here means that instead of a koala picture the screen goes black with some scattered coloured boxes all over.
if I knew how to fix the problem I wouldn't have posted this message in the forums in the first place. I hope that someone could give me a hand. |

that code looks correct - are you sure the koala actually loaded to $2000? (depending on the gfx program the load adress is different) |

Maybe he means that it looks ugly? dex:bne is no good here - use INX
http://codebase64.org/doku.php?id=base:displaying_a_picture_at_..
prolly missing $dd00?
PS: Forget the first line - X = 0 at start of loop - all good. |

indeed you're right! I used hesmon to load the image from $2000 but it didn't really load the image in that place! so I've used Brix/Plush's picture splitter as suggested in the tutorial that Count zero has posted and here we go... the picture finally appeared :-)
thanks guys for your replies ! |
