Spectrum Computing

https://s15.postimg.cc/gcktw36br/snake_game.png Z80 machine code has a lot of instructions, and it can be difficult trying to keep track of them all. Does PUSH decrement the stack pointer before or afterwards? What's the difference between IFF1 and IFF2? And what exactly does DAA even do ? Well, he...

Ok, so before you consider me foolish for posting, how do i run assembled code from basic, like in Zeus. I can assemble the code but running it is another matter entirely. it assembles fine but there is nothing shown on screen. i understand that it shares a lot of the same code structure with the sp...

is there a version for the WinAPE?

I half expected the game code to start screaming at me to let it die. Viewer discretion indeed

you did a nice job. are you going to release the source code?

out of curiosity, why is the screen yellow throughout? can't the spectrum allow a wider pallete like in Exolon? (which btw, glitches on zxspin. the lives turn infinite for some reason) You should definitely do some reading on Spectrum display limitations and "colour clash" ;) Colour is no...

Mr. Heli looks crap on the Speccy because the graphics were designed in lo-res colour You should check my mod of Mr Heli then :) I retouched all the graphics. [media]https://youtu.be/eaDsjJV-ntE[/media] Actually it's a good game with smooth gameplay and good difficulty. out of curiosity, why is the...

what are some examples of a game ending up Worse during a port to another system

C64 to Amiga

Spectrum to C64

Nes To Sega Master Sytem

Arcade port to Home conversion (Atari etc)

got it. i don;t see the point though.

would it be possible to get Duality or Psychosocial to play on the spectrum 128k?

i got it from a different site. works great

Is that for Boriel's ZXBASIC or my SpecBAS?

your specbas

it works but i can't open anything other than the main folders, even when double clicking

It sounds like you need an emulator which supports the Comcom programmable joystick interface such as Spectaculator. Download the 30 day trial and read the help file and it will tell you how to map the keys. Nice to see you back on the Spectrum after your extra marital affair with the BBC Micro. Di...

No luck. the site gives me a 404 error for the windows version.

Are you guys ok? heard there was a shooting at the high school.

would it work?

or what about Bloodshed dev C++

you magnificent Bas**rd!

Code: Select all

30 PRINT bottles;" green bottles sitting"',"on the wall..."
40 LET bottles=bottles-1
50 GO TO HELL

LOL

i decided to screw around with basic and decided to make a inescapable loop

(i was bored)

10 REM gosub loop
11 plot 12,2
12 draw 14,2
13 if Inkey$="a" then goto 20
20 goto 10


any other ways to do so?

will do

If you want to play How to be a complete Bas**rd you can get pokes you can enter via your emulator and this type in already done (you can paste it into BASIN) from The Tipshop.

B interger out of range 15:2

this is the magazine in question: https://archive.org/stream/crash-magazi ... 1/mode/2up

Page 52

i (painstakingly) typed in everything on the page (the one that says be a Bas**rd) and got an error in 15. is this some sort of joke?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XGGT5M76cM There are two different C64 conversions of my game EFMB being worked on! Here's one of them. It pains me to say it looks very slick, quite close to the PC version, in fact I think these munchbots look better. So far it's been done on SAM, Amiga, Speccy an...

If i have to pay for an emulator, i view it as a waste of money. I will use Fuse or something else
