ChibiAkumas ASM Programming Forum

I actually bought the timing chip to do it, but it's another thing I've not got around to... it looks fascinating I wish I was better with soldering and electronics, but I don't have a lot of skill or confidence in that area - so at the moment I'm just focusing on the software side, where I can achi...

It was a totally fair question, to be honest, frustrations over how hard it is to compile open source C++ software seems to be is what pushes me to focus on ASM... this may help you... here is the LATEST version of VASM, which I use in my current Z80/GB development - this contains some updates that ...

I take it you have my Devtools with the precompiled EXE from: http://www.chibiakumas.com/z80/Z80DevTools.php As for how I compiled VASM? well the answer was it was a great pain, so it's certainly not that you suck... and what I did no longer seems to work for the latest makefile... I'd suggest you t...

Thanks for signing up! Look forward to seeing what you come up with for the CPC... I'm certain if you can manage SQL and PHP, you can do ASM... I learned Z80 only a couple of years ago, and up to that point I'd mostly done things like VB/VB.Net and SQL, I think if you've got your head around the log...

Lesson 3 'Cheated' and used basic to read in, and write out the result - Basic coverts Hex (00-FF) to Decimal (0-255) for us in that example... WaitChar and Printchar are working in ascii as you've observed, below is a piece of code, quickly nicked from ChibiAliens, which should show a number from 0...

Welcome to the forum! Thanks for signing up. As you may now know, the Gameboy uses a CPU similar to a Z80, but with a few limitations (that can be 'worked around') You can definitely make your own game if you want, I managed to make 'Grime Z80' in 7 days, and that works on the gameboy (it's open sou...

Sounds great! Simple games like that are always lots of fun to play, and as a programmer, it's great to get something working quickly, and be able to add new features to it as it progresses! I used to have lots of fun back in the 80's in basic doing games like that, and had lots of fun doing it (and...

A youtube user has left the following comment: I've been trying to follow this, but the example code is just way too complicated in the way it branches off to so many external files and functions. I get that it's efficient to use prewritten code with these techniques but for a beginner just trying t...

The halt command was just to slow things down enough to see what was going on, If the code was working correctly the lines should fill in order, but without the halt it would be hard to see what order they were filling. The GetNextLine and GetScreenPos functions here were taken from ChibiAkumas, and...

Thanks for joining... I've got more c64 content... and I'm going to be looking at the GP32 next year, as you know...

if you did a test on your GP32 you're doing better than me... I never did anything with my GP2X... but I did do some development on the NDS (in C++)... maybe that gets me a pass?
