  1. Definately pick up Splinter Cell Pandora Tommorow when it arives later on this month.

     

    Also Ninja Gaiden...

     

    Full Specturm Warrior soon to be released...

     

    Rainbow six for the voice commands and Online...

     

    Oh yeah, two for sure picks are Knights of the Old republic and Prince of Persia. Two of the best from last year.

     

    I could go on and on though.... This is the year for XBOX though.


  2. I do put vcs.h in every project folder, but I just keep Dasm and Z26 in their own folders and run them using my text editor's ability to run external programs.  I also have associated the .BIN file type with Z26.

    I hadn't thought about that, that is another good idea. Thanks.


  3. Its an easier solution that replacing the TIA. Ill give that a try first. Thanks again.

    Don't thank me, before it works.

     

    And don't blame me, if it doesn't. :)

     

    Well if it works Ill thank you. If not, Ill just pull the chip. I just appreciate a differant opinion. I didn't think of changing the power supply out.


  4. Would that cause the same type of problem? Ill try a differant power supply, but I was guess it was a problem with one of the registers asociated with the fire button? Thanks for the advice though, Ill be sure to test this out when I return home.

    A weak power supply can cause a lot of weird things.

     

    But its still just a guess.

  5. :idea: My usual guess: The power supply is getting weak.

  6. I have an atari jr that the picture is out of whack. When I press the button on the joystick, the picture corrects itself and the game is fine. Im guessing this a problem with the TIA? I see I can get a replacement and its simply desolder and re attach the chip. Any suggestions? Its almost a "new" jr and I don't want it to just sit there and not get used. Thanks


  7. Hi there!

     

    DASM will compile "headersvcs.h".

    Thanks for that info. One question though, where does the "headers" directory fall under the DASM directories? Im guessing Ill have to create this also? Thanks again.

     

    I just meant to point out that DASM will understand additional path information. In the example I gave, the "headers" folder has to reside on the same level as DASM.

     

    I also suggested that you should not use this feature if you want to exchange sources with other programmers.

    Would I then have to change the include statement in my code to headersvcs.h ? Im still a bit confused. I realize that this limits me from exchanging source with other programmers. Is it common practice then to include the two .h files in the location of your source? I was trying to limit the number of copies of .h files to only one. Oh well I guess it isn't that big of a deal. I was hoping I could simply put them in a folder with DASM and leave them there until I have to update them. Thanks again for the help. BTW great set of forums.


  8. Hi there!

     

    I would like to find a better solution though so I dont' have to worry about multiple copies or having all the .asm files in the same directory.

     

    DASM will compile "headersvcs.h".

     

    Yet your sources will no longer be ready-to-compile for everyone, anyone else would have to recreate your directory structure first in case.

  9. Put DASM in your class path and you don't have to add it to all of your subdirectories.

    "class path"? Java programmer I suppose? ;)

     

    How about the general include files (e.g. vcs.h)?

     

    Yeah, Ive spent some time with java. ;)

     

    You can do this with just about anything though. Ive used it for c+ compilers also. As for the include files, I started out trying to put those in the class path but no luck. The only solution I have found thus far is to leave them in the directory with the .asm file. I would like to find a better solution though so I dont' have to worry about multiple copies or having all the .asm files in the same directory. Things tend to get messy.


  10. Hi there!

     

    Subdirectories?  Who needs 'em?
    I do. I have tons of them! Im like Subdirectorie-o-manic. :ponder:

     

    I simply throw DASM and Z26 into all subdirectores.

  11. Alright, Ive got a 2600 jr with a problem. Part of the screen is offset unless I have the fire button pressed. Ive tried multiple controllers and the same thing. Any suggestions on what to look at?? I don't mind opening it up, actually I plan to, just haven't done it yet. Just found the website too. Great stuff here, spent a bunch of time looking at past posts. Is there a thread with collection pictures? Seems to be common elsewhere.
