Title: arkos tracker player (run from ROM)
Post by: arnoldemu on 18:57, 07 March 15
Arkos tracker player uses self modifying code so it can't run from ROM/Cartridge.

Has anyone converted it to work from ROM/Cartridge?

If not, it's something I'll have a go at doing and something I need.

Anybody got source code of it (would be helpful)?  :)

The player indeed uses auto-modifying code. This is mandatory to get a fast code :).


@TFM (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=179): The full source of the player is available since day one :).

Funny, I was thinking this morning about the possibility of having a cartridge version of my future music disk  :D

@Arnoldemu : why don't you convert your music in ym format? Did it take more place?

I guess he is using it on a game.

I didn't try ym. I will look at that player next. I made a start on the modified arkos tracker player and will finish it first. I will publish my sources when done.

@TFM (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=179): here is the link to the Arkos Tracker archive (http://www.grimware.org/doku.php/documentations/software/arkos.tracker/start), which contains the player.


As for using YM for a game... It's all right if it's all right for you to save one full bank for a 4 mns song!

I know I don't have that much space free and I'm talking about a 128K game too.

What kind of 128k game?

arnoldemu: Do you have the self-modification removed already? I need that also, so it would be great if you have already done that ;-)


Thanks!
