I tried "hardware" ==> "execute>C000" ==> Yes ==> No ==> Crash. :D

I'm testing it now I've time !

PS : on 83+

Ok, I was having a bit of trouble with that. But I never tried back to back, thanks for letting me know.

You can build a statue out of either 1'x1' blocks or 12'x12' blocks. The 1'x1' blocks will take a lot longer, but the final product is worth it.

I can't get this to happen. Has it happened more than once?

Ok, well, what would be really great is if you managed to make it happen in wabbitemu. If you can get to a point where the glitch will occur, and then create a savestate and send it to me, I'll be able to fix it in about 10 minutes.

Just try to make it consistent in wabbitemu, then save it and give me the instructions on what to do.

I just tried 1.3.009, It is awesome. But, when I compile an axe prog from the editor, once it compiles, it goes back to the program editor. Is this supposed to happen? Or is it a bug?

It's not a bug, I designed it that way. If you want to run it, use ON + ZOOM or ON + TRACE. No one has ever complained about those not working, so I have to assume they're pretty stable.

I just hope this won't happen to me during a test.

Nope, I was talking about the calculations. The first one gives 24 so the second one should return 24^2 which is not 0 but 576 as the third one says D:

I just hope this won't happen to me during a test.

That's actually an OS glitch, but nonetheless it was caused by an app. That's what happens when a getCSC hook is set to an address that is not a getCSC hook. Each of the hooks starts with $83 so that the OS knows it's valid, and normally when the OS looks for a hook and sees that it's not $83, it stops using that hook. For some reason, the getCSC hook doesn't clear the hook and just returns. So when this happens, it just endlessly loops on itself and you really can't fix it.

Now, I don't know if it was actually zStart's fault or not, but I feel like it probably wasn't. The reason why is that I don't have any permanent getCSC hooks and even if I did, they're in the app.

So, before this happened did any of these things happen?
  • Ram getCSC hook
  • Garbage collect
  • Delete an app that had a getCSC hook


Those could all cause it. Also, if you catch it on a savestate, I can probably tell you what caused it.

Indeed, the last entry is a GarbageCollect. But I still emailed you a save state, so you can check if that was the cause of the bug.
