ASM Problem

What does this mean?





All I did between this build and the last one that worked was save tile graphics, mappings, and pattern cues for the Sonic that pops up on the title screen.

 

It means two branches have gone out of range, on lines 6211 and 6224 of s1comb.asm. On these lines you'll probably find something like

Code:

bra.w someplace

Locate the same line in s1.asm and change it to

Code:

jmp (someplace).l

If it's bsr.w instead of bra.w, change to jsr instead of jmp. If it's some other Bcc instruction, it's a little bit more complicated, you'll have to create a new label to jump to the appropriate code, for example, if the original is

Code:

bcc.w someplace

you'll have to change it to

Code:

bcc.w JmpTosomeplace

and somewhere in the near vicinity (after a break in code flow e.g. rts, bra or jmp), add the label

Code:

JmpTosomeplace:

	   jmp (someplace).l

Hopefully it'll just be a bsr.w or bra.w though.

 

After altering Tails animation code for Super Silver I get this error:

/monthly_06_2008/post-18-1213792599_thumb.png

 

Change that to jmp (SlopeObject).l and it should be fine.

 

Cheers, that worked.
