Still can't get rid of illegal quantity error in 1380. Why does that line generate the error message and not the one with error?
-
I typed in Boolean Brain and I keep getting illegal quality in 1380 which is correct. I can't find what's causing it. I think it's those stupid useless data statement which are a pain to edit because when I hit esc and move the cursor to the error and then press enter I get syntax error. Also there is a 0 displayed next to keyboard interface and I can't find out why. I am always afraid people here will get mad at me for making mistakes in these programs like they did at Lemon 64. They said something like a comma instead of a period, colon instead of semicolon. How come you didn't check the lines before hitting enter. How could you be soo stupid.On Disk - Programs from Home Computer Magazine (1).dsk

Here is another one with problems. Boolean Brain requires you to solve logic puzzles while walking around in a computer. Problem is when it displays the logic gates screen it is all green and the number keys don't respond. It is in Home computer magazine v 4.03 originally for the PCjr with corrections in v 5.2 to make it work on a normal pc.

It is working as far as I can tell except the obstacles don't appear to be drawn correctly and I can't figure why. The randomness of the game is brutal. Sometimes you start surrounded by cannibals and can't win , sometimes you start near the water , and sometimes you can make it to the boat without running into the cannibals.

Here is what keeps happening. That message is coming from line 2060.
Error in 200 screwed it up. Now I have graphic problems with the obstacles. Can't stand the way you have to edit programs on Apple II. Can't cursor up into lines and edit them. End up having to retype the whole line. Anyway to make a blank disk image.? Run cannibals to see progress soo far.

This is what i want to see is all the type ins for all the computers in all the magazines and books.

This program may be a lost cause line 1680 has part of the data statement 2 22 with no period or comma between it and a 42 with a space in front of it.
-
I check my copy of the magazine and line 1680 is the same way so I don't know if it was misprinted.

Ibm Pcjr platform game in which you collect numbers to stop the screen from flooding and ride a bucket between levels.
Apple II educational title in high school. Select words to fill in sentences I think. Final score screen had a character in the upper right with a big word bubble across the top of the screen that sometimes read good
-
getting there. fixed more data statements. Keep getting line number 1680 not found? Load cannibals not cannibals2 Anyway to transfer programs between prodos versions?
-
I can't tell how much of the program is executed before the emu crashes. I have debugged many of the data statements. I don't which version of prodos or apple basic I should use with these programs. I believe a real apple ii would not kick you out of basic if a program has errors like applewin keeps doing. There are no corrections in later issues. If I run it in Apple II+ mode it says run cannibals and just sits there doing nothing.
-
Typed in Cannibals and again the emulator crashes in some ml monitor. I posted a screenshot of what it did. What mode is that? It is pointless for me to type in anymore programs if this keeps happening.
-
I don't know if using pro dos 3.3 caused the problems with archeodroid. I grew up with a commodore 64. I don't know much about Apple IIs even thou I used them in high school. How do you load from the second disk drive.
-
Here are the three games I typed in and are working now. Cannibals has an issue with line 200 in issue 4.2. It reads color 2,1, wtf? I retyped it asa color 2,1. I don't know if that is right. Cannibals never asks you if you want to play again after every game it just keeps starting a new game.
-
I have a laptop and it doesn't have a break key.
-
is there a way to stop a basic program running like hitting the run/stop key on a Commdore 64? I typed in cannibals from issue v 4.2 and it gets stuck in a loop and I can't stop it.
-
-
are there disks from other issues of the magazine with the other games from the other issues?
-
-
I tried it in the Java Apple II Emulator and the same thing happened. It crashed after selecting keyborad or joystick and speaker or no speaker. Guess the emus can't handle this program. Anyone try it on a real Apple II
-
got it working in Apple II+ mode. The screen is drawn but garbled. again emulator crashes in to ml editor. Saved as arche2
-
fixed those and now it crashes into some ml monitor assembler thing. I hate typing data statements I always mess them up.

PC Basic Programs where to find.
