lol well I finished two versions, a greyscale and a monochrome one, I'm still wondering if there is a fast way to store a list to a matrix row (top one) other then a for loop... I'll try my best to get it up.
I was actually working on a quick xLib game like this during math. It works really fast (except for the fact I forgot how to do tilemaps which will make it really playable) I'm using a matrix, which speeds row shifting up lots, and as soon as tilemap is implemented, it will run at a really playable value . (well this is actually Celtic III, but only one command is cIII, the store pic, because the xLib comparability storepic command doesn't seem to work right. Edit: ok, got that to work, and I implemented a crude greyscale, by making the screen, display and the character movement a subroutine, of course if I was to get rid of that it would run a bit faster (although character movement would slow down) also, what's the easiest way to replace the top row of a matrix with a list? Is there any wierd command, or is a for loop the best bet?
although the most recent versions have less hidden RAM. Which doesn't really concern a BASIC programmer, but it can make it hard for ASM programmers. It only becomes a problem if you need lots of extra RAM, but this can be solved by simple switching out of the ROM and RAM (although this can be really annoying). If I were you I would try to buy a 84+SE from ebay that is in good condition and is old enough to have the full complement of RAM.
No, I don't know how to set up that, but you run tw bat, and it will lust the .asm and .z80 files, you enter the number next to it, then input the desired name for te outupt .8xp and then it will compile.
