Re: Hello from the USA!

Hi,
I'm from Scotland. The greenest country on the planet. Sadly it's that green due to the amount of rainfall we get :lol:

Amstrad plus series/gx4000

Hi Keith Just wondering if there are any plans for future items relating to the amstrad plus/gx4000 series? I think it would be pretty cool to be able to make some things with the improved colour pallete, hardware sprites and ROM carts. I just recently bought a gx4000 and thought it would be pretty ...

Re: Hello from a beeb coder

Looks great!
I got to use a BBC at school back in the early 90's. I'd have loved to had a chance to play a game like that.
I think we had some western game where everyone always died on the trail..

Re: Using the 'ds' directive to make value containers

Hey hey! me again. I was thinking about variables etc yesterday and I've decided that i'm just going to reserve a spot in RAM to use. Although, my program is pretty small. No sprites. It's basically a glorified calculator. Would that be any use? Just using a spot in RAM to store things I mean. bring...

Slowing things down a bit or making a small animation

an ooo so basic question

Slightly ashamed to be asking this, but i've been searching the internet for a while and through all the lessons etc. I'm looking at the firmware routines and have managed to make sure the screen is mode 1 and change the border colour of my cpc by using: org &5000 Printchar equ &bb5a ld a,1 ...
