Thanks for the quick reply,

Is the entire alphabet included or only the ones used by Sega, for instance when i did some programming for cheap japanese handheld ports, they only included letters used,

A E I O U 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
N M . , :

That was the format for the file.

Edit "E" in twice XD

Thanks, would you recommend me looking at the ASM output by the C conversion. say if i write some simple print routines in C and then look at the output ? or would it be too in depth because its gonna be too messy? sorry Steph not insulting your Dev kit. :D

Looking at TMEE's Dump of TMSS and ...

@Tomaitheous, what is the font used for "Produced by or under licensed by Sega enterprise" at startup. i understand that its stored in the hardware but would it be possible to call it?

also how would i use it? would i call it like a header file?

eg Font.H etc...

and call the routines from inside ...

Thanks again guys.

no errors so far now. BTST is very handy.

it doesnt seem to like $1, $2 when defined so i changed them to num1, num2.

as for the actual VDP, this is where i get a bit sketchy.

does the font already exist or is that included when compiling?

sorry for noobness. ASM aint easy XD

Trying to recompile my code in snasm68k and it spits out just 2 errors now

same error but on two different lines

btst.b #4,d0
and
btst.b #6,d0
"Bit operations are long on data registers and byte on memory"

Ah my mistake thanks for the correction.

how big would these EEPROMS be ? as big as the ones in the full megadrive carts?

if i used it, would the PCB have to fit in an extended cartridge like Skitchin'
or jungle strike. they are considerably bigger than say sonic 2 for example

Many thanks

Thanks for your replys,

@chillywilly, Thanks but i would rather do ASM just because its a new language for me. but i will give it a try....

@tomaitheous Hi, I spotted the mistake with labels yesterday, i forgot to include

"org $1000"

before main.

As for the print string routine, can you give ...

Anyone who wants to publish their ROM can using gamereproductions.com

for $7.50 you can have your ROM or a licensed ROM (I dont know where the law comes on this but...) burnt to a cart and even upload or send them a logo for the front of the cart

You can have 1 or 2 2mb eeproms for next to nothing ...

Hi, Kinda new to the whole programming aspect on the megadrive, i like you absolutely love it! my dream has always been to get some code running on native hardware.

well i have started learning asm but compiling this is getting to be a problem.

for some reason no errors appear in several ...
