O2 programming sample.

[Gorf]

Here is a small demo using the O2 backdrop grid line graphics. It uses a set

of 8 data tables representing the values to be loaded to the grid registers.

 

Of course you can change the table data to create your own grids.

 

Use this for what ever....all I ask is if you use it besides personal or

educational use, give me a shout out in your app.

 

 

I'll post more as I make them.

 

 

A few screen shots of games Im working on.

 

Here is the source and a bat file.

You must have TASM.exe and TASM48.TAB

in the same folder. The bin will run on O2EM.

Should make this like bAtari Basic.

If you know someone like Fred with a big enough pair to try, God bless them.

They will need it.

 

Im not at all a language writer. Parsing code is not something I've had a whole lot

of experience with. Fred Quimby must have a large pair to want to even consider a

HLL like bAtari BASIC for ANY machine never mind the 2600. Besides, the 8048 is

a pretty twisted beast to code. Lots of bank selection and things that are much simpler

on a 6502.....there are no subtract or compare instructions. No > or < than conditions.

Only zero or not zero conditions. Its quite a challenge...right up my alley actually.

 

 

 

The fact is I still prefer assembler for any console from the Jaguar down. Shoot, if I

could have converted bB, it'd have been done for Jaguar, 7800 Astrocade and the

O2 already.....though I'd use it little as I like touching the machine at the bit level.

 

The O2....its all about bit level.
