songZi.ftm is special because it is songZ but moved over to the triangle channel. I honestly cant hear the dash1 notes on triangle channel. I can certianly tell when they are susposed to be playing but I can't hear the notes... that's the problem I've been having.
My sister can hear those notes... and that's awesome!

How could this be done? THIS...


Ok thanks for reading and trying to help me here with this.

What's the input and output of that snippet of code supposed to be? I think I know what you want, but I'd like to be sure before I start writing code.

well, I'd just like to somehow



edit: I'm sorry, I don't know input or output...
edit2: Well hmmm............... I want to always be able to specify what place (either 0, 1, 2 or 3) to store the value and I would always like to have it be a multiple of 4.

Perhaps I should ask a different question:

What are you trying to accomplish? What is the purpose of this code? I haven't been following this thread for very long, so I'm not at all familiar with what you've done so far.

I am trying to accomplish creating a new different way of having a RAMbuffer.
Having a ram buffer of size 60. And then I would like to find a way to not have to write out every + number...


I'm sorry again. Nevermind... I'll think this over tomorrow. Thank you for being willing to help!

I've seen some code do things like this:

Is this what you mean?

If all you want to do is save on typing, assemblers usually offer some kind of repetition command. ASM6 for example has .REPT, which allows you to do this:


This will generate 60 STAs to consecutive addresses, the 6502 will not run any sort of loop.

This is what I wanted yes... but I'm sure there is a possible way to do this. (I think that tokumaru told me that something like sta buffer+1,x isnt possible earlier in this thread.) Thank you Joe. I'm going to spend time on this now.

I did not realise that; that is excellent! Thanks tokumaru! I want to save on typing... by creating a loop so the code is cleaner. But I am happy that loopy provided the .REPT for us!

I figured it out! Well almost.

I would really appreciate your help.
There is a procedure named next that correctly determines the high and low address for the next column to be drawn... I would like to somehow delay it being used until directly before the second nametable switch. Right before nametable 0 becomes set to the left side again. How could this be done? You know so it is like SMB...

edit.

Nevermind!!!!!!!! FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you tepples for trying to help me... well you were logged in right after my post. I have a small question... does the console start at reset: when you turn it on? I think maybe it does... but does anyone know for sure?

Essentially the CPU does this when you power it on:

So if the vector at $FFFC points to your reset handler, then yes, it'll start at the beginning of your reset handler.

AWESOME, THANKS tepples!

My level starts out already drawn on nametable 0 and nametable 1. So could I pretend that they were drawn as columns?
