Commander X16

CODEX had several features sliced out of it in order to fit into ROM, and then those features were optional if loaded from SD as plugins. This was very awkward for software that ships on ROM. It was also very inconvenient to write code with, requiring navigation of a menu system just to insert a lin...

I've found discord to be indispensable when it comes to getting help with my X16 related endeavors. Real time chat and voice chat are extremely powerful tools for collaboration, so much that the downsides are far outweighed. I'd love a less walled garden approach, but I'm unaware of anything availab...

Looks great! I'm playing it on dev board 0077 right now!

Jestin is working on something more like the User's Guides that came with the various Commodore computers back in the day. It just isn't quite ready yet. Hey, me too!

I would love a proper bound (preferable spiral) manual, but a order-to-print would be fine, too. Commodore did write some fairly solid manuals to get startet with, iirc. I've been writing a user guide for the past year, and it's starting to come along. I have release builds generated on GitHub afte...

They work hand-in-hand as a pipeline for tiles and maps.

Great use of the FM statements!

I wouldn't say I'm writing my game to be a re-usable game engine...but it probably could be. I've had to make certain decisions about things like how many animated tiles are allowed, how many animated sprites, and other things like that. Once I'm finished, I could probably find a friendly way to pac...

Looks like DEV0013 was sent to Lazer3D:
