Mike Harris Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 It works in every Coleco Emulator but as soon as I tried it in a real ADAM nothing... Nothing but a flashing screen in both my ADAM's. It is trying to display my game with the colors so I am not talking about a bad BIOS or ram. It also fail's in an ADAM emulator. Everything up till this point has been on the legit. No special calls, Proper defined ram location as far as I know. It is a little over 12k so size is not a problem. (at least that's what I tell my wife) Somebody....anyone.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serguei2 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Do you have a Colecovision or just the computer Adams? If your Adams is a module, unplug it and check if you can play on the console. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Harris Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 It's a game I am programing. Works on Colecovision emulators but I have 2 real ADAM's Both same issues when I try to run it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 How are you loading the game? Are you using the Ultimate SD cartridge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 He said , "It also fail's in an ADAM emulator." But it works on colecovsion Emulator? Could it be he is using a bad Ram Area , like the mirored one? that would not be mirrored on ADam? or something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking he was loading it on an ADAM computer other method, disk/tape. If it doesn't load in 8000-ffff area, then the game won't work since the jmp won't work since the address is incorrect place. Which is why I asked what method he was loading the program.

Mike Harris Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 It's a memory leak. Working on it this weekend. But yes, it does have to do with memory locations are different in ADAM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Harris Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Could not wait till the weekend. Word to the wise, initialize every bit of ram that your program uses so the system doesn't overwrite your data by a single byte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Harris Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thank you for everyone's input. Have it running on real equipment and needless to say, I have to make some drastic changes to make it enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
