Sounds great! Is there a visual batar basic for the 7800 or do I have to work with a stanndard batari basic only? If so, is there a recommended guide for batari basic? I've only worked with visual batari basic.

Thanks to Random Terrain everything is working perfectly now. I'm currently filling the game with new features. I've successfully added text messages that says different things if you win or if you die. You can be eaten alive by the dragon, you can starve to death and you can fall into pits and die. I'm trying out some new ways too lay down traps. I'm thinking of having a random chance that unexplored areas are traps, but you get points for exploring so it's a small risk. We'll see what fun things the next version will have.

Well, I have 4 more projects I'm going to do for the Atari 2600. After them I'm really thinking of jumping over too the 7800 and I'm wondering. How similar is the basic language? What are the differences in dialects?

My bad. My mind must've been off. I'm in a rough period at the moment with my insomnia. I could've sworn it read something else. I must've been hallucinating. Cheers for straightening that out =)

Aha, I had not doubleklicked the doubleklick.bas. But now when I do I get a request to set what program to open it with what do I choose?

I set it up just the way I did with the old version. It starts and I can load up my projects but not compile them, I always get a syntax error on everything. Even if it worked in the old version. Yeah, it's just that I can't compile it. I am trying too figure out and see if I can do something similar that works on my old version of VBB and I've gotten it half-working.

I'm just gonna stick to my old version of VBB, I can't get any of the newer working. Back to the saltmines. I've scratched my head for days and I just don't get it...Why does it work when you are left or right of the dragon, but not when you are above or below it? It don't make any sense to me. if player0x > player1x then _dragon_pos = player0x - player1x : if _dragon_pos < 8 && player0y = player1y then COLUPF=$DA : goto __Skip_X_Check if player1x > player0x then _dragon_pos = player1x - player0x : if _dragon_pos < 4 && player0y = player1y then COLUPF=$DA __Skip_X_Check if player0y > player1y then _dragon_pos = player0y - player1y : if _dragon_pos < 8 && player0x = player1x then COLUPF=$DA : goto __Skip_Proximity if player1y > player0y then _dragon_pos = player1y - player0y : if _dragon_pos < 16 && player0x = player1x then COLUPF=$DA __Skip_Proximity

I've hit a snag since I can't configure the latest VBB. I'm trying too find an alternative way too discover the dragon, but in the meantime it works if you are next to the dragon either left or right of him the playfield will turn green, just not if he's above or below you. Everything else works as it should. Just that final detail that stops me. Enjoy the latest version, and I hope it helps someone out there! Download - d_and_d_0.4.2.bas

Great start. I really like the main character, very well animate and cute!

It'll be interesting too see how you guys will react to this one. =)

Anyone know how to convert sheets of music too Batari? I'm doing a little game based on Super Squat Simulator and I thought it would be neat if it was set in Russia so I wanted the Russian national anthem as music >_>

Ahh. I'll see if I can get the latest version going. I've stuck too my favorite version a long time now, mostly becouse I can almost never get the newer versions work. Wish me luck =)

Though I get a ton of warnings from your code. If I assemble and run it the screen is completely black with a few white lines.

Thank you so much, that was exactly what I was going for =)

Thank you so much. I don't know how I'm gonna repay all the help I've gotten =)

Good that you asked. I've made a bunch of changes. I worked on everything else since this was the only part I couildn't figure out. Source - d_and_d_0.4.1.bas
