Heaven/TQA Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 just in case if you have not considered yet to use XXL's brilliant xBIOS V3 for your next project... I tell you just this: ;xBIOS V3 ;$0000-$00ff ; free ;$0100-$01ff ; stack 6502C ;$0200-$06ff ; free ;$0700-$07ff ; buffer I/O ;$0800-$0bff ; xBios ;$0c00-$cfff ; free ;$d000-$d7ff ; Atari HW ;$d800-$ffff ; free and you can have custom NMI already in the early loading sequence which means you can play music and load data below ROM.... Thanks, XXL... without xBIOS my life for upcoming project would be much harder... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxl Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 important change in v3 - xB starts with I/O OS compatible so works with all devices. in v3 all components are fully relocatable. buffer, library even runad / initad vectors you can put under OS eg. $d800 and use e.g. ultraspeed for your drive. it is possible to load program with load adress starts at $200 http://xxl.atari.pl/?p=1076 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaven/TQA Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 XXL... how can you relocate all the buffers etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaPa Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Budowa xBIOSPierwszy blok pliku xBIOS to blok konfiguracji. Zmieniając go możemy np. relokować bibliotekę pod dowolny adres, zmienić nazwę pliku który ma być automatycznie załadowany itp..byte c'XAUTORUN ' ; autorun file.byte >$0800 ; xBIOS adress.byte >$0700 ; buffer adress.word INITAD ; INITAD vector adress.word RUNAD ; RUNAD vector adress.word AOSV ; I/O module adress (at run AtariOS; default xSIOV).word AOSV_RELOC ; relocate AtariOS I/O module variables.byte $ff ; PORTB at start (can't switch off BASIC this way).byte $40 ; NMIEN at start.byte $c0 ; IRQEN at start.word xSIOV ; xSIOV adress just for info.byte { RTS } ; dummy. xSIOV is part of xB, no need relocate it variables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 yeah... MaPa....sorry for not speaking polish... where is that block? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaPa Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Google translate: The first block is a block xBIOS file configuration. We can for example changing it. Relocate the library to any address, rename the file to be automatically loaded like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxl Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 if you want reloc buffer use xBIOS_RELOCATE_BUFFER. during loading do it like this: org $c00 sec ; C=1 during I/O you can preserve buffer content ldx #>$2000 ; new_buffer_adr jmp xBIOS_RELOCATE_BUFFER ini $c00 org $700 lda random sta colbak jmp $700 run $700 if you want do your own xB config, you need set up xB header - the first block in xB. you can also delete the menu from the library, just remove latest block in xb file.
