Winape Broke And I Can't Fix It
When assembling my program using VASM and the CPC batch script, I got an error message I had never seen before. It said "Memory full in 20." I kept getting this even with a nearly blank program (just "org &8000 ret"). So I thought maybe if I delete the old .dsk file it would ...

Implementing a tilemap in MS-DOS
I've created an attempt at a tilemap system for MS-DOS, it seems to be working. Unfortunately since MS-DOS's graphics are all done as a bitmap screen there are no hardware coprocessors handling tile graphics for us. It seems to be very fast (although I haven't tried scrolling yet). If you want to te...

RLCA/RRCA a range of values in memory
I was playing around with RRD and RLD, and came up with something that I thought was quite clever. I haven't tested this on any Z80 hardware, this was all done by writing out what should happen on paper. (Do people still do that?) EDIT: I have tested this on WinAPE and so far it seems to work. :Chee...

A nifty trick to get a subroutine to repeat exactly once, without looping
Here's a pretty handy trick I came up with for debugging, although I doubt I'm the first person to think of this. Let's say you have a routine you're testing, that's supposed to loop multiple times. It works fine on the first go-round but bugs out on the rest. You want to quickly test what would hap...

UASM Features You Might Not Have Known About
Here's a neat little trick I learned the other day. I didn't think that the version of UASM in Keith's development kit would support this, since all the examples in the documentation are for 32-bit x86, but I was surprised to see that this actually works. Before using this I would recommend that you...

Re: Computing checksums
I'll admit I don't know much about checksums... the 8086 has a parity flag that is set when all the bit 1s are even. Maybe that could help?

Re: New 6502 based Fantasy Console: The Fanticon (currently in Alpha)
That's really cool! I was thinking about building my own 6502-based computer myself. Does it run on an NMOS 6502 or the CMOS 65c02?

vasmNEO.bat
I've been trying to learn how to make batch files and I tweaked vasmNEO.bat to work with any NEOGEO cartridge so that you don't have to retype the source and destination folders to match your rom files. I'm still a total noob at Batch so it only works under the following limitations: The folder your...
