Thank you, I see there is now a way to make ML calls with "asm" and "end" statements. ML calls help speed up and reduce the size of large programs. The language is very similar to basic. Can pass parameters to subroutines.
Looking through the threads, I see a notorious person posting to make KLAX. Does he still post nasty comments about what's going on here with various Facebook accounts?

This Pac-Mad looks like a fun game. Like to see how the A.I. works that controls the ghosts. Pascal looks a lot like Basic, and ML code can be mixed in also.

I did email Lance and got a reply. Stated he was not aware and has no control. Buffalo Pete can just say it's not him. People can fight all they want on forums and social media that live many kilometers apart, and it never ends. This is not the pleasant side of the 8-bit scene.
Now I need to find the section on here that talks about Mad Pascal.

65816 to procek 16 bitowy
juz samo to mowi ze to nie "scena 8bit" ;-)

Tak, 65816 to 16-bitowy procesor. Ale działa na 8-bitowej magistrali.
Pracuję nad kilkoma 8-bitowymi grami na Atari 8-bit i 7800.

You can't always go by the part numbers that indicate something is 8 or 16 bit. Each producer did their own thing. The 6800 (4 digits) is an 8-bit processor from Motorola, the 68000 (5 digits) is 16 bit. The 6500 and 6501 were identical to the 6800, and there were several civil lawsuits between MOS and Motorola, but the 6502 was different enough to avoid legal action. It was because the 6502 was much cheaper that it led companies like Apple, Commodore and Atari to produce computers using them. Motorola was left behind.
Even so, the 65816 only had 8 data pins and could only write 8 bits to memory at a time. Takes an extra step to store the high-order bits in memory. They can run native 6502 code, but have additional 16-bit instructions and registers, so you can create programs to handle more advanced processing.

I know about the "Prince of Persia" thread on the AtariAge forums. People will annoy, embarrass and intimidate you when you do things they don't like. The fights will go on forever. Don't use profanity, it will give the admin an excuse to ban you. You can also create a duplicate thread on Atari.IO where everything is more civilized. Harassment of people working on games is not welcome.
The Atari Prince of Persia 8-bit port has been well put together by the developers, and many appreciate a good job. No one likes to see how they are treated on the other forum. Game program developers were pushed into a corner, who took action which resulted in them being banned. This has all happened before...it will happen again.

Might want to look at these. Originally written in other languages such as TurboBasicXL then ported to Fast Basic. Also some Mad Pascal and CC65 examples. Fast Basic programs can run from Sparta DOS.

My ideas about longer file names is doing something similar to what Microsoft did with Windows. They use two or more entries in the directory to contain all the characters for a filename. The attribute byte has 8-bits, and sure not all of them are used. I know the Atari uses them for protected, deleted, system, but not using all 8-bits. So use one to specify longer filename. Maybe add this feature to the Sparta Dos X cartridge that we load onto an AtariMax cartridge.
The other is to use the high bit (128) in each file name to indicate attributes instead of a separate attribute byte. Since all the ASCII characters in a file name can be 0-127, it would work.

On the contrary: the invocation worked like an absolute charm. :D

I'm not sure what Buffalo Pete is promoting with fake accounts. I'm sure many here just enjoy watching games continue to be made. Was there something about his games or Video61 products? It seems that all those who reply to group posts are real people. Nothing inside the group about what's going on here.

Now you can argue with people endlessly on social media, and they respond. It will last indefinitely.
Video61 runs a business, and an associate who does bad things doesn't look good. Is Lance aware of what's going on?

[edit] I missed that attached photo earlier, maybe the post got edited, or the page did not load correctly.
Most people will not know what that is about. Would not call that shilling, more like geared at provoking. Some of the other photos have been floating around social media and copied into that account. Some with brief comments. Camouflage?

Very remininscent of some shill facebook accounts which advocate vandalism and assert that 'we have agents everywhere'. I wouldn't post anything I wasn't happy to have repeated elsewhere on public forums anyway, so why the idea of 'eyes everywhere' is supposed to be intimidating, I do not know. I know one individual from Buffalo, NY has been reading this thread, since the shill social media accounts were out in force only hours later. And why would he not read it, since it was said in public.

Those are interesting posts about the Side3 Beta Loader and an unused Atari 65XE.

I don't know where said posts are, but it's easy to contact me with bug reports (this being a beta) if the desire is to get things fixed and not simply to troll, and I just released a bug-fixed update the other day. Not that it was my idea to provide the beta on sold devices anyway (indeed, I initially prohibited this), and since I'm not responsible for the code which ensures the hardware behaves in a determinate manner on a given device, there is only so much I can do in terms of maintenance. ;)

What we seek are those that cheat, scam, do things to gain access to financial and personal information, and do other malicious things. I can't give details about everything. Only when you receive messages or requests such as dating, porn, shopping sites or anywhere they send you and need to pay for. DON'T DO IT. Don't use your regular email or social media account to sign up for stuff they send you. These people are in countries with poor law enforcement. They have been flooding sites like Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Instagram with fake accounts. Usually these accounts just have some photos of a handsome young lady, along with their home, friends, or at their job. Just helping to shut down those who work with them here in America.
Looks like your Buffalo nemesis hasn't done much lately. The latest post is about the Animal Keeper 7800 version. See some things about Fast Basic. Are these supposed "Shill accounts" doing anything malicious for the reasons listed? It would give us some cause.
Well, I'd like to keep it this about Atari 8-bit scene. Personally, I wish more tools and languages would help me write programs. Disk File Tools. Has anyone done anything with longer filenames on an Atari 8 bit, more than 8.3? Since devices became more available that can access much more storage, like Side3, maybe get something going with DOS to manage all that.

I don't have to live in other people's heads and be a few meters away, observing every move made, while being cloaked. I know every social media and forum post and no one knows I am there. Just take pictures or copy the link, and forward it to who it concerns the most.
Those are interesting posts about the Side3 Beta Loader and an unused Atari 65XE. Glad to see benign posts that are not about what other people on that social media page. Yes, we are watching. Don't worry, you are not the only one.

Like this reply. Good Answer. I know someone who has cloaking device technology for said radar. Are these other accounts gone for good? Have they been replaced? I checked in with this person and haven't written anything about AtariAge recently. I am sure that matters are monitored here as well and therefore I am careful to use searchable names.

This would be a great demo for an Atari 8-bit computer system. You can probably do something with multiple character sets, vertical and horizontal scrolling. I'd like to have short animated visuals for a future game I'm working on.
Be careful what you post about FlashJazzCat. He's gonna get you in trouble. Many people favor him here, AtariAge, Twitter, Facebook etc. Do not comment on any of his posts. The other people he mentions stay away from him and what happened. You should also.

People want to see new and original stuff made for their Atari systems. I looked at the AtariAge, Atari.IO and Atari Facebook groups on decompiling, making changes to a slightly different game. People just change player / missile data or colors. But don't do anything else to improve the game. Why not take Pittfall (I, II) or Adventure and give us new worlds to discover as well. Can you add enemies to make the game more challenging?

When someone just disassembled a game and make just a few changes, is not doing anything original. I got a hold of the original 2600 Miniature Golf Game and tried to figure out how to add many new things to the game. Higher horizontal resolution, hills, played with the width and repeat settings for the obstacle. 18 Holes instead of 9. More than one course.

I need XIOS to load into RAM at $2800 from cartridge. It will be loaded with a deflate routine.  I use Inflate / Deflate because it had a good compression ratio at the time I created it. The game will program will ask which file slot to use, like 0 to 9. Saves to a file like GAMSAV0 to GAMSAV9. You can reload it later.
I have a big adventure game that I made for an Atari 8-bit. Currently, I'm working with the operating system and saving game data directly to disk sectors, but I don't want to deal with idiots who ignore warnings and put other files on the system and delete them. The program saves a 2K block from RAM to the disk, which has all the data for progress of the game. Variables, and what has happened so far.

Potrzebuję, aby XIOS był przechowywany skompresowany w pamięci ROM kartridża z grą. Inflate do pamięci, gdy wymagany jest dostęp do dysku. Używam Inflate/Deflate, ponieważ miał on, w czasie gdy go tworzyłem, dobry współczynnik kompresji. Pojawia się monit o to, który slot pliku ma być użyty, jak 0 do 9. Zapisuje się do pliku jak GAMSAV0 do GAMSAV9. Można go później ponownie załadować.
Mam dużą grę typu Adventure, którą złożyłem dla Atari 8-bit. Obecnie pracuję z systemem operacyjnym i zapisuję dane gry bezpośrednio do sektorów dysku, ale nie chcę mieć do czynienia z idiotami, którzy ignorują ostrzeżenia i umieszczają w systemie dysk z innymi plikami i kasują je. Są też wichrzyciele, którzy zrobią coś takiego celowo, aby twierdzić, że kartridż z grą jest wadliwy, próbowali dostać go za darmo lub żeby dostać darmową kopię od autora. Jeden z nich lubi zamieszczać obelgi na temat XXL w mediach społecznościowych i na forum AtariAge. Na razie powiem tylko, że nie lubię wchodzić na forum AtariAge, bo to toksyczne środowisko.
U mnie program ładuje się do pamięci przy 2800$ i zapisuje na dysk blok 2K, który ma wszystkie informacje o postępie gry.

Some things undocumented about the Atari that were not widespread known about GTIA. Setting PRIOR to 0 creates an OR effect with player/missile graphics and the playfield.  Not much was known about switching 9 and 11 modes, each pixel creates 256s.
Now we need to be polite with each other here. Some people try to push others into taking actions. When something happens, they complain to admins to try to get them banned. This has happened before.
It is best to let things go. If someone is a good programmer, they can just go and make new stuff, show what can be done. Most people on these forums or social media groups don't know programming. Without us, the retro gaming community will not continue.

There is not a need to keep things on going. Both sides can be bully and play victim. On top of it, what people argue about usually not that serious. When people get nasty with me, I go away because I have better things to do. I work on programming, graphics, and music for games.  That is the better way to show you are better, as many members on forums and social media can't even program in Basic.
