Thanks Kerm! I hope to have screenshots tomorrow, if I can figure out what is causing Brass to throw errors.
Care to quickly post the errors before I sleep?

I can't right now (iPhone), but they seem to be typos, nothing very serious.
Ah, that's fair enough, best of luck! souvik1997 wrote:
Nothing is immediately jumping out at me when I read MainMenu. Does it crash in there? Before or after it displays anything? A small optimization note: you can load immediates to de, like "ld de,gbuf+45", no need to load to hl and exchange de and hl. 
Any luck with this? Do you mean that the menu looks weird when it first renders, or after you start pressing buttons? What's your suspected fix?
My fix is to set the byte in RAM that controls the menu choice to zero, but the results are the same. I'll try to get a screenshot of it.

Sounds good, I'll be looking forward to that so that I'll be able to help you solve the problem.
Sorry, I haven't been able to make any progress on this because I'm trying to figure out what's causing the bug in the menu. I think I have all the multiplayer routines done now, so I just have to debug those routines.
EDIT: Here's that screenshot I promised.

I hope you changed your ld hl,blah \ ex de,hl lines to ld de,blah. Right before you copy the menu item picture, you have ld hl,plotSScreen+536 \ ex de,hl. Where did you get 536 from? You should write it as 12*something, which will make sure that it's properly aligned to the edge of the screen.
Edit: Also, calling your up/down routines instead of jumping is a very bad idea.

Oops, that should have been 636, not 536. >_< And I'll change the ex de,hl statements and the calls, thanks.

Sure thing. I'm not hugely confident that that will fix things, but it's at least worth a try. souvik1997 wrote:
Alright, the menu is now displaying correctly. The key detection still isn't working, though.
Mind posting the updated code for that? The key detection still isn't working, though. souvik1997 wrote:
You call MainMenu but then jump into LetTheGamesBegin. That's bad for the stack depth, besides not making sense. 
Also, it's always smaller and faster to do inc a / dec a instead of add a,1 / sub 1. Register to Join the Conversation
