I meant dumb luck that the .asm extension took priority in the user-lang file as opposed to the already existent assembly language file.

Are you talking about making your own ROM or modding an existing game?

When you make the 'userDefinedLanguage' file, there is an option to add extension recognition. I am not sure how it decides which assembly to use, but I would guess it may check for keywords or something to see which one fits.

Perhaps its just some dumb luck on my part but when I open up one of my .asm files, it opens the 6502 highlighting, not to mention I put a backup file extention of .650 just in case someone wants to be a little too organized.

I did manage to acquire to a fix by simply rewriting 2000 to $2006. I tested your method and it works fine as well. I did a little digging and I added my change tile code to the A button so whenever I pressed it with my fix, it glitched the background for as long as I held the button but did change ...

Well I did try that and it pretty much just screwed up my entire background. It didn't work and just screwed up my background but I did figure out why. I needed to reset the value at $2006 to its original of $2000 and that solved it. (Hope that proves I don't just copy and paste )

Well I knew I might has well have added how do I write to VRAM along with how do ID the correct address. Anyway I figured out the VRAM address to be $2057 $2000 + (2 * 32) + 23 I just want to change the second zero in 00 to be a 1 to simulate a score. So when I go: LDY #$0 STY $2056 The code took th...

Well time to make myself look stupid but here I go... how do I find the VRAM address.

Since the text (and numbers for that matter) are in the background pattern table, I wrote my text "PLAYER SCORE:" as part of the background as well as the starting score of 00 next to it. So whenever the score increases would I have to rewrite the background all the way back up to the seco...

I got bored a while back and made a 'User Defined Language' file that you can use with Notepad++. If anyone wants it, you can download it from my site: http://nesmods.com/resources/6502/ . Note: The reason I didn't provide a direct link is because it actually took me a little while to figure out how...

The NES’s processor doesn’t do multiplication, so if you want to multiply numbers, you have to add them together a bunch of times Sorry for jumping in a little late (can't access the site in school) but you CAN do multiplication and division by 2 doing bit shifts. 01 = 1 in binary, but shifting it ...

it's possible to put it all in a batch file. Gah! I never think of some mundane thing like that. My mind jumps straight to some freaking complex C++ program and I say I am sure as heck not writing that anytime soon. I guess I need to dust off my bookshelf and refresh the part of my brain that has t...

I am adding your site to my list of stuff I really need to read. Plus your layout makes mine look like crap.

I see where NESASM finds its niche for now. I guess when I get more comfortable with 6502 I will start using that, but if I have to add my own header then working on a game would suck since I reassemble then so many times (I have an incessant need to check every change I make to make problem solving...

That is exactly what happened.
