You surely already thought of this, but multiple downloads of the same-named file, increment an attached parenthesized number to the filename. Perhaps you are opening an older file all the time?

jrhodes Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I DL'd it this morning about 7 A.M. , is definitely v399.014 . I do wish Tursi would include version number in the download filename, but only takes a second to change filename after DL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I wanted to "see what would happen" when the 1.8 version of the F18A emulation is updated with the 1.9 upgrade.

As expected, even on a temporary basis, nothing. Hey, what else is a guy supposed to do on Christmas eve? ? Hehe, yes. Classic99 supports the F18A's SPI flash and so the updater can run against it, IIRC the data is even saved to a file in the Classic99 directory, but the FPGA bitstream is not used to emulate the F18A. (That would be pretty cool though ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't have any good tests to prove I did it right... Well when I ran RXB AMSTEST it should show the PAGE changed as I test pages, it does not do that? EXAMPLE: 2 3 A B C D E F are normal pages. Load other pages and should show: A2 A3 A4 A5 A6 A7 A8 are the new pages loaded. Of course these are Address boundaries 2000 3000 A000 B000 C000 D000 E000 F000 repectivly. The debuggers should show the paged mapped in SAMS, not just the same thing you would find in Normal memory map.. Yes you can have a page not loaded and you can look at it with this Classic99 Debugger, but if it does not show what is mapped and where..... (what is the point?) With no reference point this makes the feature kind of useless. (Nice first attempt though thanks.) Edited December 25, 2019 by RXB Added Text.

+adamantyr Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Given I requested the feature, I'll answer that. It's actually VERY useful because at many points in my CRPG, I would like to see the data that's in a page that is not accessible at the point in code where I'm at. I have one bug I need to hunt down where after playing awhile, some of the name data got corrupted and I have no idea what process overwrote that area of memory. This will definitely help find it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RAM chip is unaffected by the mapper settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you can have a page not loaded and you can look at it with this Classic99 Debugger, but if it does not show what is mapped and where..... I coded what was asked for. If it's mapped into the 9900 memory space, you can already view it through the CPU tab. Ideally you know where in the AMS you are storing your data - when you do, that's what this is for. What is missing (as you note) is a dump of the registers that tell you what's mapped where, but this is just a stop-gap feature that I was able to put in quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrhodes Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 (edited) I have Tursi's permission to post these here, so for anyone looking for old versions of Classic99 for whatever reason, here you go. Notes: v399 = This is the original upload that did not work for some people. v399a = This the reuploaded version becuase some people could not run it on XP for example. v399.013 = This is the original upload that did not work for some people. v399.013 (alt) = This the reuploaded version after Tursi made a change to some build options. classic99 -v361.zip classic99 -v362.zip classic99 -v371.zip classic99 -v395.zip classic99 -v396.zip classic99 -v397.zip classic99 -v398.zip classic99 -v399.008.zip classic99 -v399.009.zip classic99 -v399.010.zip classic99 -v399.011.zip classic99 -v399.012.zip classic99 -v399.013.zip classic99 -v399.013 (alt).zip classic99 -v399.014.zip classic99 -v399.zip classic99 -v399a.zip Edited December 26, 2019 by jrhodes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 Meanwhile, the train keeps limping along... V399.015: - Add AMS read/write/compare breakpoints - Add AMS register write from debugger - Add AMS register dump in debugger (type 'ams' and view debug log - hacky but functional) - Add 'help' to debugger for list of command syntax - Add masking to debugger memory accesses - was potential crash point - Changed CPU register access to require "CR" (like VDP's "VR" and new AMS "AR") http://harmlesslion.com/software/classic99 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
