Moving koala to different address (n00b)

I'm having a hard time understanding why this doesn't work for me:

The code below loads a koala file to $2000. All fine.
But in combination with music (starting at $1000) I get the music messed up. I figured that the pic overwrites parts of the music (>4096 bytes). Any other starting address than $2000 fails however, showing just garbage (updated $d018 too, but it didn't do the trick).

PICTURE 		= $2000
VIDEO 			= PICTURE+$1f40 
COLOR 			= PICTURE+$2328 
BACKGROUND 		= PICTURE+$2710 

* = PICTURE
!binary "resources/mypic.kla",,2 

* = $c000

init_koala

addition:

you must also poke d018 with charrom address.
do it this way:

so, when the koala is in $6000
here is to make d018 poke:

selectchar

lda $d018
and #240
ora #0 ;0-2-4-6-8-10-12-14 : 0000-07ff, 0800-0fff, 1000-17ff, 1800-1fff
; 2000-27ff, 2800-2fff, 3000-37ff, 3800-3fff
sta $d018


so, change the ORA
charbank 2 starts at $4000
so the ora must be 0

if the char of the koala is in 4800,
then it must be 2

each 0800 hop = +2 on the ORA

I think I'm almost there. The bank switching happens, the music plays fine along with the image and so on. But I still must oversee something trivial, as the bitmap displays, but color seems to be off: http://i.imgur.com/DcPzQdl.png


PIC_ADD     = $4000

* = $6000
!binary "resources/mypic.kla",,2

Looks like you are still copying the "screen"-data to $0400. But since you switched the vic-bank this isn´t your screen anymore. Try copying to $4400,$4500... in your vloop.

@Bamse: Hm. Are you looking at the code in the first post or the one from the last? Because I can't see where I'm copying to 0400 etc. anymore. Thank you!

That's how I display koala/ocp from $2000-$4720. A koala from $6000-$8720 can be loaded into memory at $2000 and use the same code.
To display a koala where it stands in memory, from $6000 requires bank switching, which I don't have time to do at this moment, but that's not what you wanted to do ;)
I think $471e and $471f are bits for $d020 and $d021, not sure as I never use them :D
Doing it my way will also require any sprite inits to take place AFTER, since we write to $7f8-$7ff

Hey, just a small note about memory and graphics if you missed it...

When the VIC chip looks at $1000-$1fff and also $9000-$9fff, regardless of the data you have here, the VIC chip will see a mirror of the ROM charset. So no bitmap, fonts or screen color data can be displayed from these addresses...

Meaning, no FULLSCREEN bitmap in $0000 or $8000. Use instead $2000,$4000,$6000,$a000,$c000,$e000.

Got it Ejner, thank you for the heads up!
