    So, I try building my Disasm today, but I'm greeted to this instead:

    When I saw that I'm like what the hell? These symbols all exist in the code. Before you ask - I'm on Mac OS X, but following this tutorial (works for any OS with Wine btw) tutorial I got it to build in the first place. What could cause this? I'm absolutely confused why this happens. I hope this is enough info, and if not please just tell me because I really want this solved. Also what confuses me is that it says there's only 3150 lines, but there is actually 42,252 lines of code. Thanks.


    Edit: If anyone needs source, PM me because I do not want to give it out to the public.


    Edit2: Before anyone asks, this is line 3148 to 3150:




    beq.s Sega_GotoTitle


    andi.b #$80,($FFFFF605).w ; is Start button pressed?


    beq.s Sega_WaitEnd ; if not, branch

    FYI, we're working on the same hack. I tried to build it on my computer (running Ubuntu) and got this.

    For the first post: It means you don't have those routines or anything defined. You may have a "bsr.w endofrom" but you do not have a "endofrom:" with code following.


    For the second poster: I'm guessing you just didn't add a tab to the include ie you have it like:


    include 'h:\_inc\sbz pallet script 1.asm'


    And not


    include 'h:\_inc\sbz pallet script 1.asm'


    Let me know if you have any more concerns or if this is not the case

    Those happened to me once, write some crap in sonic1.asm and then remove them and save.

    No idea what Hanoch was talking about either, but as Malevolence stated, you probably didn't put a Tab or Space before the line. Look at this:



    include 'h:\_inc\sbz pallet script 1.asm'


    This should like this:

    Code:
    	include 'h:\_inc\sbz pallet script 1.asm'

    If a line starts without a tab or space, the assemblier recognizes it as something else.

    What I meant was that sonic1.asm didn't save correctly. Write some stuff, maybe a ; and then save.

    Try searching for the word "END" on it's own. If that word exists in your source, then anything after it will be ignored by the assembler.


    If this is the case then moving that word to the very end of the source would be your solution.

    I did do a search for it, and it only occurs at the end of my source. The only other place it is in is in comments, but those should be ignored by the assembler, right? I even tried re-saving sonic1.asm in multiple encoding, but no dice. I even tried looking at the file in a HEX editor, but all that I see there are the CRLF signs. And the assembler doesn't accept UTF-8 files for strange reasons so I have to save it in the Western (Windows Latin 1) encoding, with line breaks set to CRLF. The assembler starts cutting off the file right in the middle of this method:



    Sega_WaitEnd:
    move.b #2,($FFFFF62A).w


    bsr.w DelayProgram


    tst.w ($FFFFF614).w


    beq.s Sega_GotoTitle


    andi.b #$80,($FFFFF605).w ; is Start button pressed? <-- it thinks this is the end of the file


    beq.s Sega_WaitEnd ; if not, branch

    OK, so I got this figured out. The file had some garbage between those two lines. All I had to do is re-write it using a different editor and all worked. Thanks for everyones help!
