Spectrum Computing

oh...thanks

Mr.

no it's mothers day soon and i'm spending time with mom. besides. the BBC micro resembles an epileptic seizure when trying to run assembly

will do so in the distant future though

Is there a way to reconfigure the controls for arrow input or WASD? the game Evil Dead just uses numbers 4,5,6 and 7

how does that help? just curious

did it add support for QL emulation? zx80,81 and compatibles? what about the clones?

that's in british pounds right? you do now i'm on american soil right?

is there a way to get the left and right brackets to not show up as arrows?

this is the listed basic for my game on Beebem (sorry for the long list)



i need a way to allow for a yes or no choice at line 66

this is the article i pulled the idea from:http://www.cracked.com/blog/revisiting-old-school-text-adventures-as-a-jaded-modern-gamer/ granted it's a lot shorter than this one (and the author really needs to add a hotkey for reset and allow a way to save to .tap or disc) Moderation Action (PJ): I hav...

How does the BBC micro differ from the zx spectrum in terms of graphics, sound and control? also, what do they share? is there anything that makes the BBC micro stand out? (for some reason, coding in assembly for the micro is harder than on zxspin) by the way, the left and right bracket keys have be...

interesting

is there a good Z80 assembler (not zeus, i already went down that rabbit hole once) that i can use to start properly making games or, at least graphics

***Title changed by Mod****

it won't run...at all. i'm using version 6.0. why can't i just get a simple exe file?

is there a rom i need to download to get it to work? all i see are bars along the screen.

will the other members be able to run the game in snapshot form? It’s your call, but I strongly recommend to not distribute games as snapshots. Snapshots contain machine model and other configuration information, including attached peripherals, which will disrupt a user’s settings. Just create a re...

You could try giving this book a read. It's written for the 48K Spectrum, but with some trimming you could probably get something that fits on the 16K. The location descriptions would likely take up the most memory, so halving the lengths of those would help. Additionally, while the book READs the ...

As it is it's more sophisticated than half the csscgc entries, so just submit it! Shaun is waiting for text adventures! Agreed - just hand that bad boy in. Should also add - you don't want to write a game so good it wins CSSCGC :lol: will the other members be able to run the game in snapshot form?

i put it in new software 2018, took a bit of time to upload, thank god for fuse

before you flame me, just to be clear, I cannot replicate the sheer awesomeness of the original. this is a drastically cut down version tailored to fit on the 16k spectrum. hopefully, the screenshot alone gives enough info. in order to conserve space, i removed quite a few locations and jettisoned t...

how did you post this? i've tried posting a file as avi, png and jpeg. the image tool won't accept it

Do you want to create vector graphics (as you mentioned plot and draw) or pixel graphics? Nowadays most people doing actual graphics for games etc. don't draw it on real Spectrum or in Spectrum emulator. They do with PC tools and then convert to desired Spectrum format. i believe in the old ways of...

now, I know the plot and draw commands are sufficient, but as i am using a laptop and thus, the crappy touchpad, I want to know if there are better ways to make graphics for the system, outside utilities, that let you drag and drop and stuff like that.

i thought this thread was gone? why is it still up?

i object to the term indoctrination but also advise you to look up Spiritual warfare for nes. only decent wisdom tree game out there, save for exodus
