I hated that movie, Man of the Year, expect a comedy and get some conspiracy crap.

He'd probably do better than bush, he's at least a good speaker, lots of truthiness.

World War II is a war. Star Wars is a war. The fight on illiteracy is a war.

Couple of kids in cussing match isn't a war. Unless there's blood I'm not even willing to call it a fight. More like a hissy fit.

How did the conflict end? because you're talking about things getting real worse but now it's calm. Very interesting btw, are the old posts somewhere I can read them? :mrgreen: I don't remember any of this either, probably exaggerated. (unless you call stuff like "fuck you" or "go bu...

I forget how Zelda's works, but its superior to jim's. LOL that made me laugh Ah now I get it... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: it's that spencer vs jim e thing :mrgreen: :mrgreen: He's lying. My mapper requires the user to add an extra row to the map buffer, his requires adding an extra column. Because of th...

Neat idea, rotating sprite data straight into the buffer would be fast for single pixel scrolling. Mine was made for multi-pixel scrolling. It makes it possible to set the pixel coordinates arbitrarily and the mapper would try to to use as much of the original buffer as possible. When I want to scro...

Re: [Z80-asm] Advise about tilemapping

The only option I see is to have a seperate buffer for the tilemap and copy everything every time you want to update the screen Yup! The problem is that in the last case there's a huge overhead plus this doesn't allow for masked tilemaps (or multiple layers, depends how you look at it) Ha! LINK Any...

before I give any suggestions on RAM/Archive usage or possible file system setup: is this targeted at the 83+BE only, only the calcs with extra RAM pages, or both? Definitely both. There's a trick to that. The 83+SE is completely discontinued now, any left on the shelves are left overs. The 84+(SE)...

So I'm glad Ben pointed out the paging issue :) But you're right that it could be potentially very useful in the sense that you could put eight often used functions there. Only seven, since one of them is the interrupt routine. 6, RST 00h is where the cpu starts, and RST 38h is the interrupt. I sug...

The "8k limit" doesn't technically apply, simply because theres nothing below $9d95. But a limit is still imposed, depending on what security is set, executing on certain ram pages will cause the hardware and cpu to reset.

The 8k limit is a software controlled hardware limit, however I don't know how to turn it off on the Silver editions. So that could definitely cause a problem.

I think multitasking is a whistle.

Honestly I would really like a c compiler for some things, I just hate doing math in z80. It's the worst the existence of mankind. I just don't know any that are set up to well for practical coding.
