Hallo.

So i was looking for an answer on the forums but couldn't find it.
How do i change content of an array?
I have game maps in array of course and i want to load different screen layout to the same array i used before.

I know i can do:

dim a(10) as ubyte => {1,2,3,...}

Now how to change it to something else?

In the olden days i used data to fill arrays quickly, dut that doesn't seems to be case anymore ^_^

edit: well i guess i can make a 3D array and instead of loading data into 2D array, simply switch to another layer of 3D array. But i dont know what is better memory-wise. The data needs to be there any way, but i don't know, i just don't like having huuuuge 3D array of all the screens in the game in memory at all times...
Plus i was hoping i could load data to new area from file...

Hola,
Estoy haciendo una demo y necesito tener acceso al disco ram del +2a para almacenar una gran cantidad de imágenes comprimidas para un animación.
He intentado hacer ésto de la manera tradicional como se haría en Sinclair Basic con <save "m: block1" code xxxxx, xxxx>, pero no funciona.
Tampoco si lo intento como si fuera un +2 con <save ! "block1" code xxxxx, xxxxx> (en este caso ni me deja compilar)
¿Es posible manejar el disco ram del 128k desde el ZX Basic de alguna otra manera ?
Muchas gracias por la ayuda !


Hello,
I'm doing a demo and i need access to 128k +2A ramdisc disk to store a lot of compressed pictures for an animation
I tried it as i did in Sinclair Basic in a 128k + 2A with <save "m: block1" code xxxxx, xxxx> but does'nt work.
Either as a 128k / + 2 with <save ! "block1" code xxxxx, xxxxx>
It is possible to manage the 128k ram disc with ZX basic?
Thank you very much and sorry for my poor english

Hi there.

Haven't been here for a while, but this weekend i got back to do some coding. Spectrum Next is getting ever closer and i want to be ready ^_^
Anyhow, did a small test of possibility of making an JRPG game on speccy. Just one screen for now, no scrolling, just avatar walking about. But you can go to the roof ^_^
Use WASD to move

I did use PutTile library for drawing graphics, which are rather basic ATM. Nice pictures waren't priority.

I also made a tool for designing the tiles and to keep it in the spirit of things, it's a zx basic program as well ^_^

Use WASD to move the cursor, Space to place or remove pixel and I, P or B to set attributes.
Bu pressing C you can see the values you need to put into PutTile.
There may be some bugs.

Hope someone will find it interesting ^_^

See Ya

Hi BritLion!

I've been using your FourSpriter MKIII for a simple game and it's great. My knowledge of assembler is very basic so I don't dare getting near your code, but I'd like to ask if it would be possible to have smaller sprites, e.g.: 8x16, 16x8 or even 8x8. Maybe this would allow for more sprites on screen also.

Thank you for sharing your skills and thank you in advance for your response.
