The problem is, that the lasted version of DASM doesn't like force operators which are repeated by the instruction (e.g. sta.wx address,x). This is a known bug which will be fixed soon. A force operator can be used to e.g change a 4 cycle ZP,x write into a 5 cycle abs,x write. And timing is crucial for a 2600 ROM, especially when it comes to positioning of a sprite.

 

A workaround for current DASM is to remove ",x" in "sta.wx address,x" or to revert to an earlier DASM version.

 

thanks so much.

 

cheers.

@Thomas Jentzsch

wait, the horizontal reposition has a sta.wx

 

i have removed the x.

 

what has changed?

now the compiler works, must i do something to replace that x for other thing?

 

works the same sta.wx than sta.w with just one dummie?

 

i know that .w is some kind of delay.

Hi  @SpiceWare !!

 

 

thank you so much for your work like always.

 

I'm trying to compile this source code sf_source071123 on linux ubuntu with DASM 2.20.14

 

I'm using this command line to do the job:

 

dasm frosty.asm -lfrosty.lst -f3 -v5 -ofrosty.bin

 

and i get:

 

frosty.asm (473): error: Illegal forced Addressing mode on 'sta'.
frosty.asm (1286): error: Illegal forced Addressing mode on 'sta'.

Fatal assembly error: Source is not resolvable.

 

Am I doing or writing something wrong?

all it's in the same directory, vcs.h, macro.h, graphics.h, frosty.asm

 

ty in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've debated this since you posted it and decided to stick with SpiceC for the same reason I changed from the original Spice C to SpiceC - searching:

• spiCe - 839 results
• Spice C - 839 results (the lone C is ignored)
• SpiceC - 9 results

Results are as of this reply, I'm sure they'll increase in the future.

 

sorry i never saw the name selection process.

 

regards.
