How to properly setup $fffe interrupt ?
Good day to you all, I have a bit of a problem so... :
I found some old code of mine on an old tape and transfered it to PC and want to compile it using tass and try it on CCS64 or VICE. Im sure code worked 15 years ago, but now... :)
So why this happens...
"sei
...
lda #<irqsr
ldx #>irqsr
sta $fffe
stx $ffff
...
cli"
I watched this code in VICEs debbuger and imidiatelly when sta $fffe is done there is NO change in $fffe ?
same with $ffff
So when cli goes, my prg just goes to $ff48 and my interupt routine is never executed...?
So I would be very gratefull if someone can write just some small piece of code that makes my routine go off in regular timed intervals (5-20 times a second...).
I read some other posts but cant get it to work...
thanks... |

Tryed that out... still something is wrong. Must be something in the rest of code...
I dont need kernel. Just VIC in bank 0, turn off basic and kernel, dont even need charset, got my own.
Code is 18Kb so I need time to look it up.
If you could supply just that: How to set up timed interrupt every now and then :), what to put in $01, $dc0d, $dd0d, $dc00 ? ...
p.s. This game is something you have never seen on C64 :) I got to fix it... |

When using $fffe interrupts, you also have to preserve the registers yourself. So, do pha txa pha tya pha at the beginning of your interrupt routine, and you should be set. |

sty $fffb
lda #$7f
sta $dc0d
sta $dd0d
lda #$00
sta $d012
lda #$1b
sta $d011
lda #$01
sta $d019
sta $d01a
lda #$35
sta $1
cli
jmp *

YES!!! After three evenings starring in code finally got it!!!
Am little puzzled, what was wrong at first place but who cares it works!
Your code did it (and the fact that I realised what the main loop was acctually doing ... it was written 14 years ago)
Thank you guys...
p.s. will upload code for all of you to admire when the graphics is done (Its a game but I salvaged only code, and the graphics file is gone so have to do some drawing (4 sprites and 5 chars :)and then youll see what was all about) |

Yay!
But that's what we're here for, right?

I think that HEMA should first-release this game |

The code lacks an LDA $DC0D and LDA $DD0D to clear the timer irq flags. You might encounter occassional crashes due to that. |

I did used
bit $dcod
bit $ddod
in previous attempts. No noticable difference though...

Just wait 1 frame in the sei block and see how your IRQ gets triggered immediately after the cli. Clearing the timer flags IS needed. |

I read info on those memory locations, and its all there. Just cant see what was wrong in the first place. Must be kind of mistake that sits there infront of your eyes and you are just blind to see it...
I knew this when I was younger :(
Am out of shape... But am just going into it again! :)
