A.D.A. Amiga Demoscene Archive

Hello everyone !

I just won an Amiga 1200 in a party.
I'm coding 68k demo on ST, and i want to try to code a demo on Amiga 500 or basic 1200/1mb.
I already found some init/fini code, but i need a register map, and maybe some help to start :)

bhoo an Atari coder!!!
Atari sucks, Amiga rulez!!! :-)
Our blitter is longer than yours!! :-)

ehehe, just joking!!
Welcome, I'd say you are in the right place!!

Give a look at all previous threads in this forum, you can learn a lot!

respect him !!! I've just brough him here..

> basic 1200/1mb.

2Mb you fool !!!

I can give you a link where u can find french version if interests.

Thanks a lot !

Well, 1200 2mb ;)
Too much ram for me :D

Krabob, Kaiser, yeah, that's what i need :)

I'm using Assemble/Devpac and DeluxePaint on Atari, i know there's Amiga versions, it is avaible or still under license ?
I tried AsmOne, maybe i must try it again, but the gui looks strange ^^
PhxAss looks cool too, but i need a good asm code editor, any idea ?

TheDarkCoder, lol, you remember me the 'good old days' ;)

This forum rocks !

@tobe:

welcome :)

also, a website is "attached" to this forum (well, actually, it's the other way around). (click on banner on top).

who knows, maybe one day, some demo from you will be included here ;)

i think devpac is still under license.
you can try asmpro, which ressembles to asmone, but includes few nice new features. (like inciff to include iff pics and color map)
If gui looks strange, maybe you miss "request.library" in your libs directory. Without it, you'll not have gui requesters for open/saving files, etc.

i made a mistake, the library is "reqtools.library" for requesters

Ok, let's try AsmPro for real !

@z5_
Nice site really, nice design, and sota on the first page :)
I hope to see a MJJ demo here soon !

@tobe

The comments to this news story:

http://amigaworld.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=2277

contain lots of reasons why Asm-Pro is great, and also a few tips for beginners.

Thanks for the link !
Also, a friend told me Devpac is not so great on Amiga.

Cheers,

I personally used ASM-One and ASM-Pro most of the time and really liked the fast turn-around times and the speed of the editor. Then I also used Devpac3 and Optimizing Macro Assembler (OMA) for testing and cleaning up my code.
I never liked working with OMA or Devpac but they are for sure the more sophisticated assemblers (read: ASM-* are buggy and will crash every now and then). Also PHXAss might be worth having a look at if you like using your own editor and then compile and link with a seperate assembler.

Nevertheless: search the forum to get the newest include-files. Also make sure to get Enforcer (in your case or Cyberguard on 040/060) and SnoopDos (i preferred one of the older versions. 1.7?).

PhxAss looks good too. This way i can write my code on my PC then compile and test it on the Amiga.

Did someone tried Brainstorm's Assemble ?

Good news, i found a few Amiga fellows to code the demo with me :)
Bad news, i must leave to Paris a few month for work, i can't bring my 1200 :(
I'm going to try winUAE...
