Show Koala Pic
I'm sure noone here has any problems with showing a simple Koala picture, but I came across this piece of code on codebase64.org and wondered why this had to be done so complicated...?
http://codebase64.org/doku.php?id=base:calculate_vic_settings_f..
In TurboAssembler it's pretty simple to calculate the VIC settings, see my example below. Isn't something similar possible with KickAssembler? Just wondering...
Example in TurboAssembler:
;---------------------------------------
; Show Koala
;---------------------------------------
koala = $6000
screen = $5c00
;---------------------------------------
bank = koala/$4000
*= $1000
lda #$3b
sta $d011
lda #koala-($4000*bank)/1024
ora #(screen-($4000*bank))/64
sta $d018
lda #$d8
sta $d016
lda $dd02
ora #%00000011
sta $dd02
lda $dd00
and #%11111100
ora #3-bank
sta $dd00
ldx #0
copy lda koala+$1f40,x
sta screen,x
lda koala+$2040,x
sta screen+$0100,x
lda koala+$2140,x
sta screen+$0200,x
lda koala+$2228,x
sta screen+$02e8,x
lda koala+$2328,x
sta $d800,x
lda koala+$2428,x
sta $d900,x
lda koala+$2528,x
sta $da00,x
lda koala+$2610,x
sta $dae8,x
inx
bne copy
lda koala+$2710
sta $d021
lsr a
lsr a
lsr a
lsr a
sta $d020
lda #0
cmp $0277 ;wait for key
bne *-3
lda $dd02
ora #%00000011
sta $dd02
lda $dd00
and #%11111100
ora #%00000011
sta $dd00
lda #$1b
sta $d011
lda #$15
sta $d018
lda #$c8
sta $d016
jmp $9000
;---------------------------------------
Note: The result of "bank = koala/$4000" is an integer. |

soci, thats a neat idea, tho I cant think of a scenario where it would be useful :) maybe some demo effect with lots of prepped csets. |

Soci , hehe i don't like to kill a fly with RPG but
what do you mean
by:
$0000 | bits(bitmap) where is the bits function? or i miss something.
and later:
and #~(screen[14:16] || []) hehe for not a C coders
could you make a friendly explain ? (you can do it on
private if you prefer) |

Too much late coding yesterday ;) It would go even more off topic if I'd go into details in this thread.
The code fragment was only a demonstration about constructing $d018 values without using divisions and shifts.
Normally I use some variant of this:
lda #((font >> 10) & $0f) | ((screen >> 6) & $f0)
sta $d018
lda $dd00
ora #3
eor #font >> 14
sta $dd00 Even if this version is wasting 2 bytes half the time for the $dd00 calculation. |

why not just store a fixed value to $dd00 though? i dare to say that "properly" ORing the value is very rarely needed - certainly almost never in the usual setup code at the start of your intro/demo/whatever :) |

Not sure why. I just checked and even my one filers are mostly doing the masking, where there's no chance of loader interference.
It must be tradition then.
So I now declare trademark rights on the ora/eor version. It may only identify genuine Singular productions ;) |

i see this often, also with eg $01 or $d011 .... people must have learned it somewhere :) |

Why not give an example of code? Unabridged CODE. No documentation per line of code, just CODE.
Screen Ram - $7f40-$8327 ?
Color Ram - $8338 (or is it $8328)-$8711?
My code, and it doesn't display proper at all.. Like missing lines...
Lda $dd02
and #$03
sta $dd02
lda $dd00
and #$fc
ora #$02
sta $dd00
And of course I follow with:
lda #$18
ldx #$f8
ldy #$3b
sta $d018
stx $d016
sty $d011
Not known if my image will show...
<a href="http://s48.photobucket.com/user/festeezio/media/koala_zpsxtctbx.." target="_blank"><img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f245/festeezio/koala_zpsxtctb.." border="0" alt=" photo koala_zpsxtctbxw4.png"/></a>
If it doesn't, here's a direct link..
http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f245/festeezio/koala_zpsxtctb..
Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?
Image is at $6000. The 2 RAMS mentioned are being read and plotted to the screen/color area. |
