ZXNet echo conference «zx.spectrum»
From Pavel Fedin → To All 27 July 1997
hello, Tigra! I remember that on 22 Jul 97 you just threw this at me:
T> I wrote that I was old. I haven’t written for Speccy for a very long time, but now
T> you might
T> need it, so it would be nice to get some fresh ASM.
If you have 128 k, then I recommend ZXASM, and if you have 48 k, then I recommend
upgrading and temporarily using PASM. But I can’t throw either one or the other - Spec doesn’t work yet. :-(
bye, with all the best wishes, Pavel Fedin.

Hi Pavel!
I’m sitting Sun Jul 20, 1997 at 11:51 pm and I see men dragging the topic Asm
Pavel Fedin is loading Andrew Mikheyev, well, in short, this is the situation:
AM>> Well, me, for example. It’s just that here in 5026, for a long time now, neither the bazaar nor the stores sell software for ZX. So, if
AM>> someone sends it, I will be very grateful.
What is it that interests you? I have quite a lot of different system, gaming, music (I mean AY-3-8910) programs, for MSX, MSX-2.
If you are interested, I’ll make a list (it’s just that in our city I was the second
person in the number of programs, I even wrote toys myself, I don’t need XONIX or
KLAD - adapted for ZX completely except for SPRITES from MSX?). The only
problem is that there is no emulator that supports TR-DOS :-(
Thank you for your time.

SO> If you are interested, I’ll make a list
You’d better figure out how to convey this to the people... A list is
good, but you, for example, are sitting in Lutsk, and I’m in Kyiv, and why should I
lick my lips looking at your list? :(

What do you mean? And Shalaevsky? :-\
Sincerely, Help.
But one day, sharply thrusting a blue key into the crack on the door,
He got hit in the forehead with a rocket, almost completely knocking him off his feet jumping off.

Anyone who has an INTERNET address can send detailed information about themselves to
zx...@chat.ru - the opportunity to exchange with unlimited traffic will immediately appear.
This address is only for official exchange of information, all correspondence is from
another address.

Have you tried twisting the MSX screen (SCR 5..8) into a file? I was thinking of just tinkering with the BIOS and moving on.

PF> Dragged from MSX??? Wow, share your experience!
If you cook something in MSX, then it’s better. But besides this, you need to have access to the standard MSX BIOS. All MSX games use it only. The only
problem was with addressing. Because on MSX, some noises start with an address
$0000 or $4000, and on the Spectrum, as you know, these are system addresses, but that’s also
no big deal, you just have to adjust links like JMP, CALL, etc.
in general, there are some nuances.

PF> hemorrhoids. Cut Magic file
To cut Magic files, I wrote a small program for separating the area:
$4000-$5B00 - screen
$5B00-$61A8 - area of system variables + a piece of free space for the BASIC
loader.
PF> , find normal start and conditions
and I looked for starts or using standard criteria like:
#F3 DI
#31 xx xx LD SP,xxxx
it can be even more difficult, but usually I didn’t have to worry about finding the start for a long time.
And in general, what kind of Sinclair firmware do you have? I personally upgraded myself to Sinclair'90 -
it has a built-in monitor, the RAM is not reset when reset - hence the conclusion:
problems are reduced.
PF> launch, relocate the whole thing, then remake the interface for
PF> MSX-DOS... Gloom! :-(
and from Spectrum it’s easier to transfer to MSX, since there page addressing
is substituted in any place. And Spectrum only (usually) with $61A8 - $FFFF.
SO>> The only
SO>> problem is that there is no emulator that supports TR-DOS :-(
PF> But I don’t need an emulator - all my equipment is real. ;-)
I sold the real equipment, but I was stuck on it for about 8 years.
So something was drawn to the Spectrum, but......... alas... nothing to do with it yet.
