I've just double checked...its MusicModule, so ignore this one. So it sounds like we can shim the lot.

I'll have to go through all the discs and figure out which trackers they all use. Might take a while!

Re: Trackers we need to shim or upgrade

I'm not sure what these non-desktop boot scripts are? So far I've only used ADFFS by opening the ADF file and double clicking the game inside. If you have to leave the desktop, that is surely a step backwards? Even most old RiscOS 2 games support returning to desktop after use. On older 1 or 2 MB m...

Memory usage post DA changes

One side effect I've noticed since going to a DA is it's actually increased the memory usage by up to 31k, due to the page size. Although considering the previous scenario, where you could end up with 700+kb slack in the RMA, it's trivial. It has however got me looking at "vars", which cou...

Now hands back memory for APD's

2.13i ADFFS module is on the dev site, which now hands back unused memory for APD's. When mounting an APD, as the size is unknown it pre-allocates 900k + table space which with DA's is now 932k I believe (due to page size). It now hands back what it doesn't use once it's completely decoded the disc ...

Re: Code review

Sounds like you're, on a mission! I was pondering doing something similar to ADFFS after I noticed extASM trying to expand LDR PC, <address> into two statements using PC as the operand!! I should probably look at the extASM source to fix it also. Think there's around 2K of auto-expansion now, which ...

AutoVIDC on RO3.1

As discussed, I've now changed the !Run to forcibly run AutoVIDC on RiscOS versions below 3.5. The updated file is in the dev area, you just need to drop AutoVIDC into the !ADFFS folder.

Re: Multi-disc games post DA changes

Issues so far: BlowPipe - R13 corrupt after changing disc (need to debug to see where it's getting corrupt) Carnage Inc - At the point you swap discs, it's in BASIC, which blocks the memory allocation. Reserving memory for ADFFS should fix this Cataclysm - Could be the same issue as Carnage Inc as i...
