That was a buggy version. Try the version from here. According to Mitch this one will work.

Ok .. Thanks! I downloaded a file .. it's a 39k GZ file. What do I do with it?

 

Could you post the latest version here? And you should edit to delete your earlier download.

Kind of useless now, but I also uploaded a zip file to sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=138752)

I cannot get this latest version of RFK to work .. It locks up on the title screen!

Hmm, that's strange works OK for me. You do know all of the menu movement is controlled by the joystick, right? The console buttons are unused.

I discovered that in the gfx init code, DPPL/DPPH are set during a vblank period, the remaining registers are set during the next vblank (getMachineType returns during vblank in this case).

 

Let's not discuss wether that particular piece of code is stupid, the question is a different one: could this cause those (spurious) lockups some people experience ?

 

   /* Set DPP, depending on machine type */
   if (MT_NTSC == getMachineType()) {
       DPPL = (unsigned int) &dll[2] & 255;
       DPPH = (unsigned int) &dll[2] >> 8;
   } else {
       DPPL = (unsigned int) &dll[0] & 255;
       DPPH = (unsigned int) &dll[0] >> 8;
   }

   /* Set up remaining maria registers */
   waitVBlank();
   CHBASE = (unsigned int)font >> 8;
   BKGRND = 0x00;
   CTRL = CTRL_MODEAC |
       CTRL_KANGOFF |
       CTRL_BCBLACK |
       CTRL_CHAR1B |
       CTRL_DMAON |
       CTRL_CKOFF;

hello

 

here's some preview of robotfindskitten for the 7800 =)

this is the ntsc version, a pal version is underway.

 

does anybody have the possibility to test this on real hardware ?

 

[edit: use the latest version from from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.p...ckage_id=152194]

 

cheers

Well, the thing allows you to findkitten on the Atari 7800...so it's finished and probably I'm not going to work on it ever again (unless I come across a new list of NKI messages I want to include. Don't know what happened in this field).
