if you wanna make sid tunes you can use goattracker but it's for windows (e: and mac and linux apparently) you should play Below the Root because it's awesome also play Elite Cannonballoon fucked around with this message at 03:05 on May 29, 2014 |

Claven666 posted:you should do this and tell us what happens It's 6502 machine language. $0400 is screen memory. The PETSCII codes are being loaded into the accumulator and then stored in screen memory. What do you think it does? Oh and there's a conditional loop that breaks after executing the code 20 times. Then it returns to the C64 BASIC interpreter. This is really, really old school, so I'm not surprised you're unfamiliar with it. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 04:39 on May 29, 2014 |

Glass Bottom Boat posted:i have it keyed into the machine code monitor. how do i run it? You should be able to exit the monitor and type sys 49152 from the screen A soft reset will keep the code in RAM but if you do a hard reset or type sys 64738 it will clear the RAM. If it doesn't work, you need to start entering it into the monitor by typing a $c000, because the machine language monitor probably didn't store it. drat it, I'm using the wrong PETSCII codes and my indexing is a little off. Here's the updated source code: c000 LDX #$00 c002 LDA #$09 c004 STA $0400,X c007 LDA #$0D c009 STA $0428,X c00c LDA #$20 c00e STA $0450,X c011 LDA #$07 c013 STA $0478,X c016 LDA #$01 c018 STA $04A0,X c01b LDA #$19 c01d STA $04C8,X c02 INX c021 CPX #$15 c023 BNE $C002 c025 RTS Now imagine writing a game by typing all this poo poo in.

Glass Bottom Boat posted:oh my god Yeah, that means the monitor is converting the mnemonics into numbers the computer can understand. You are actually programming at about as low level as you can possibly get. It's really very cool. To program like this means you need to understand the hardware architecture on a very deep level. Modern languages protect you from any of that. The only thing I can think of that is close in 2014 is writing drivers. That's pretty low level. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 04:21 on May 29, 2014 |

Rewrite the load routines! Not enough enemies in your game because the hardware can't support them? Make some up and trick the hardware into displaying them! It seems to be a lost art. But computers work exactly the same on the low level; Every chip has registers, an instruction pointer, a status register and a stack pointer. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 04:13 on May 29, 2014 |

Oh, man, there's some really interesting games you might like. The Summer/Winter Games are an exercise in poo poo-wading, but everyone should play them just once to remember how bad games used to be. Heart of Africa (Or was it Seven Cities of Gold) I'll throw in another vote for SHOGUN! just to give it a whirl. But, there was copies of the ultimate "gently caress YOU!" game floating around. "I Have No Mouth & I Must Scream" was on the C-64. Remember, these games, and the C-64 itself, hate you with the passion of a galaxy of burning suns and will never forget or forgive.

Sometimes I miss the kinds of games we had back then. Pushing the hardware to the max and then some, programming beneath the HAL to the hardware itself, paying special attention to AI's. Then I remember just how terrible they looked, the game design decisions that went into some of them (Oh, God, any of the point and click nonsensical logic puzzles), and how the games hated you. loving Impossible Mission. "Stay awhile. Stay... FOREVER!"

What the hell is that from? Sure as poo poo isn't from a C-64. Nice second hit on GIS though. LGoP looks like this:  And is pretty funny satire.

spengler posted:i think this is why the c64 demoscene is still a thing. How the gently caress is this running on a stock C64? Looks like they are hitting $d011 and $d012 really, really hard. Very impressive. $d011 and $d012 are the registers that contain the location of the raster beam as it draws the picture on the screen. Machine language is fast enough to race the beam and generate a raster interrupt. You can then send new instructions to the display (the VIC-II chip), like extra sprites or colors and then return control to the hardware. The timing can be a little tricky but this demo is amazingly smooth. And the SID chip? loving amazing sound chip. If you can program the C64 sound chip, you can program any modern synthesizer. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 05:31 on May 29, 2014 |
