Yea, I'll get my stuff together. As far as a generic Java map level with a GUI. The only reason I haven't thrown one together is pure laziness... But when my needs out way my laziness and I finally make something better then an ASCII map reader. I'll try to make it as general as possible. Beacuse, w...

Hello, I'm not sure if its to late but if the price is reasonable, I'd like to purchase two (will settle for one) CopyNES'. I've started programming the NES and would love to see my little programs own my own NES console. What kinda of stuff can you put in 'em. SRAM would be very nice. Anyways.... J...

I just saw your post. Using a 64 byte buffer for the attribute table is what I ended up doing (to keep track of the old bytes without having to touch $2007). Thank you though :). Now I've got my level compressing (small program in Java turns ASCII > RLE compressed bin) and decompressing working. I'm...

About those instructions. I thought so but, they compile with DASM and run in Nesten and Nintendulator (thanks for making that by the way).When I tried using x like (lda ($F000,x)), it told me it had to be a zero page address (the $F000). EDIT: Oh, wait. So that means DASM is spitting out regular in...

Updating columns on the name table during VBlank
Hi again. I'm back with more ignorance. I'm attempting to make a simple horizontal side scroller. I thought I could update the name table one column at a time as the screen scrolled (inside the NMI). But alas, my column update subroutine is to slow and goes over the time limit. So my question is, in...

Woops,
Woops. Just to clarify. The values I meant were 0,7,79,87,159,167. See what happens when you stay up all night...

Best way to get the modulus of two 8bit values?
Hello everyone, I'm new to programming the 6502 (and the NES) and need to know the best way to obtain the modulus of a given (unknown) number and 80 and 81 (X%80 and X%81). Right now I'm using an 8bit / 8bit division routine I found in an old text book. Seemed to me the only way to obtain the mod fo...
