It looks like Mads may be broken due to something in the 1nvader source added in the last couple weeks. i'm getting an error from MADS when trying to assemble the 1nvader game. Compiler 'MADS' output: Runtime error 216 at $0000000000417845 $0000000000417845 This happens from command line or from eclipse/WUDSN. i thought maybe the mads which I had downloaded long ago was out of sync with current linux libraries, so did some updates, got the current source, built a new executable without issues (remarkably), and still get the same error. (At least I have a nice shiny 2.1.3 now). Then I tried the last large game I wrote (Pet Frogger V03) and it assembled just fine from eclipse/WUDSN So, it seems that there's something about the 1nvader source code that's breaking mads. ANY IDEAS? What I get out of google is that this is a memory access error. Most recently, I had been adding some strings for options menus, and commenting out declarations of unused variable. Is there any limit in Mads that I may be hitting -- like file size limit or total number of source lines? So far I've worked out that the ata_1nv_gfx.asm file is breaking mads. This is where all the screen graphics assets are declared/defined. Something in there is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenjennings Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Back to work on this. The MADS maintainers discovered my stupid programming trick that was breaking MADS and have made some updates to mads.

Sugarland Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Played for the first time just now. Got about 12100. Felt like it was a great score. Wish I had taken a photo now. Fun!!

kenjennings Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 I've been out a while. (a couple months, actually). Everyone at home was taking turns with the virus of unspecified origins. And then I had to get shot for work and that was worse than having the virus. Starting to ramp up to working on 1nvader again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should probably quit working on this. ? I used only 8 lines this time ? But seriously, your version is impressive. It just needs the sound effects to be complete. Adding a tune would be a plus.

No, my wife's job in Orlando ended this month, so I have been busy moving her and her temporary apartment stuff back home here in South Florida. if you look at GitHub history I have been working on adding more game modes (and some of it is actually working too.) I expect to pick things up again after July 4th. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
