Yeah I assume he has equated MemPageAPort to 6. Probably better to call that MemBankAPort

Wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute... You mean you decrement to read successive pages? ... That's it!! I'm going back to 82!

---------------------------------------------
Porting of the main screen

Okay, the multi-page hello world prog is working now. I'll just stick to the "in a,(6)" method since it seems more direct.

"Porting" the titlescreen and main menu are the next goals, and the difficulty gets stepped up a little bit. Instead of doing an exact port of the TI-82 opening screens I did a grayscale version a while back that you may remember. The file select screen for the Flash version hasn't been designed yet, but that can come later. So basically, I just need to display the grayscale screen, wait for keys, and maybe print the small-font text at some point.

Oceanside in grayscale.

So now I'm pretty much looking for a grayscale engine. One that's pretty fast, but easy to set up. And since this text ROM calls don't seem to work inside apps, I gotta make a call to show the small font instead of that...other one.

For grayscale there is Ducks in maxcoderz but there is an better one if is operational from jim_e in Revsoft forum.
http://www.revsoft.org/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=11
In maxcoderz you have duck's routine and even documentation and help for APPS.

oh and during greyscale you can not use getkey or getcsc, instead use the keyboard port. Or use the routine provided with the grayscale for having a key. I say this because you want to wait until a key press.

For a 4x4 text routine search for bub's font by Dwedit.
http://wikiti.denglend.net/index.php?title...raphic:Bub4font
http://wikiti.denglend.net/index.php?title...raphic:Bub_font
You can find this routine in a text file also. In ticalc or Dwedit's page...

There is also Kouri's D_ZC_STR routine that you can find in
http://void.ticalc.org/archives/routines/

I do not remember other font routines... but those serve, with danger of being in a APPS...

Good programming.

ask tr1p1ea for his gs engine. it's probably really fast now at the 4lvl. you might even be able to pull of a gs version of the entire game for SEs, depending on how much separation there is between your engine and the gfx.

but for just a splash screen, jim e or duck's packages are good.

The text ROM calls work fine, you just have to copy all of your data to RAM first.

ld HL,$0107
ld (currow),HL
ld hl,disabled
ld de,op1
b_call(_strcopy)
ld hl,op1
b_call(_puts)

will put the string in Ram for you and then display it.

Pretty good. Is it still in 4-shade grayscale? (Hard to tell right because of my screen). One thing I definately need is a version of the pic that reads "press 2ND" at the bottom. I'll add it in later as some kind of transparent & grayscale sprite.

And how do you flag the calc to invert the text color for the small font?

Yeah it looks like he just used the dark grey instead of black for the reflection. Which I agree looks a good! Nice job Nano.

set TextInverse, (IY + TextFlags)

res TextInverse, (IY + TextFlags)

Okay, I notice from the Duck grayscale code that there's a lot of dependence on the Ion shell, which of course won't be in the picture. In IonLargeSprite, does it draw the sprite to the plots screen or directly to the LCD port?

I think it only plots to plotscreen.

But you can see the source of Ion to check out.

All the ion sprite routines are drawn to PlotSScreen, i don't know if Duck modified them to draw somewhere else though (but it doesn't draw directly to the LCD).

That one of jims is outdated and i dont think he wants anyone to use it. There have been significant advancements in the routine that have seen them exceed fastcopy (so they need slowing down).

Will you require a fully APP compatible routine? Or are you happy to have a routine that is run from a saferam area?

I could really go either way on it. The map and objects buffers will not be in use while the pictures are up, so I can use those or even saferams.
