Hello folks!
I have just made my first assembly program, on an Atari ST (actually my second - the first was displaying a 8x8 pixels square, it was an exercise trying to understand bitplanes, 2 years ago).
But I made one more step :) I'm now displaying a text, loading characters from a 8x8 font from a .PI1 image. Be advised, this short video features EXPLICIT CONTENT but it should be safe-ish for work (no images). :)

There is a special rule on this forum...
This forum is intended to offer equal amounts encouragement and constructive feedback...
Therefore, if you say 2 negative things about someones work, you must think of 2 or more equally positive things...
Eg: "Great first effort, the idea is absolutely fascinating... However I noticed a few bugs, and maybe the graphics could be improved..."
If you can't think of anything good to say, then don't say anything!
If we don't encourage newbie programmers they won't have the confidence and motivation to stick at it and become great programmers! *speaking from experience*

Heh!, very good!
I understand your comments on bitplanes, The pixel layout of the AtariST seems especially weird if you ask me.
I will now listen to some tracks on your soundcloud!

Well it's frustrating to have to write that much code just to change a few pixels but, the more difficult the more rewardingakuyou wrote: Fri Aug 23, 2019 11:28 pm Heh!, very good!
