winkdot Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Get this sometimes even when changing code that is not being executing. The invalid instruction appears in Stella (6.) when running the program. Don't get it. Anyone else get this error? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Are you using a ton of semicolons all over the place? That can cause problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkdot Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 No semicolons but there are lots of colons between statements. Is that also a problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I don't think so, unless your lines are so long that it's causing a weird problem. Somebody recently was using a ton of semicolons and that somehow created a problem, so that's why I asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stephena Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 There was a change in Stella 6 in this area. I will look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stephena Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Also, please post the src and ROM that exhibits this issue (or send by PM if you don't want it released to the public). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkdot Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Also, please post the src and ROM that exhibits this issue (or send by PM if you don't want it released to the public). i will send you a PM the next time I get it. Sometimes moving the code fixes it. Weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkdot Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 This is driving me nuts!!!! Just removing a group of REM statements causes invalid instructions. Put them back and it fixes it. How does that make any sense????? Starting to think Stella 6 is badly broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stephena Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 The ROM you've sent by PM isn't in the correct format or the correct size. So it looks like the compilation is being done incorrectly. And hence Stella isn't treating it as a DPC+ ROM. I don't use bBasic, so I suggest posting your code here (or some subset of it), and getting advice from bBasic users on how to compile DPC+ ROMs. For now, I don't think this is a Stella problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had some odd bank switching going on. Thanks much for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
