Programming a game and when I run it, it doesn't work.

[tuckrix7865]

I am programming a very simple game and am learning from the Tinkernut tutorial. I believe that I downloaded the correct version of batari (Not the one provided by Tinkernut) and have followed his instructions in creating a background. However, when I load the game up in my emulator (StellaX), I get about one line across the screen and it some what flickers. Below is a copy of my current code and attached to this post is the screen that I see.

 

Thank you ahead of time,

Tuckrix

If this wasn't a typo, and you're actually using StellaX (note the 'X'), then this version of Stella is horribly out of date (version 1.1 or so). Update to the latest 4.7.3, or soon to be 5.0.
