vmu-dev : Messages : 1018-1047 of 1156

- Does anyone has information of opcodes 0x50 and 0x51 ?? The Sega VMU
Hardware manual doesn't have a description of them (probably because they
are only used by the bios).

- Are the indirect (@Rj) byte opcodes always related to RamBank0 ?? No
matter what the value of the RAMBK0 flag is ??

- Also, does someone has Sega binaries, so I can test my POTATO core even
more ??

Thanks in advance,

Gerrie

I have recently compiled the sources for the assembler,emulator,disassembler,and
VMI file creator,on linux for the dreamcast.I was curious if anyone has tried to
do this.I've had trouble compiling the disassembler(errors with the command line
options-strnicmp stricmp-)but most compiled fine.I am using only the
distribution version of linuxdc(diskjuggler image)and a serial cable connection
to transfer the files.

I have a copy of Japanese BIOS.

It should be faisable to rewrite a small program to read one from a VMU,
if I recall properly.

Last I heard, the BIOS has not been dumped. You may wish to contact

assembler. If anyone does know of a way to dump it thru a Double Power,
I'd be glad to dump mine for you.

I personaly use the nexus 16mb vmu with pc link cable and then copy
from there to my real VMU via the dreamcast.
The offical dev kit is not geared in any shape or form to be 'picked
up' and used.
Marcus docs are much more complete and acurate and so is his assembler,

Use the many fully documented ASM VMU projects such as the (plug plug)

Have you tried VMUscript? I'm not sure of the URL, but you should find
it if you search around, if it still exists. It's a lower level lang
than ASM with many examples and aparently works good. I've not looked at
it much though, but it's probably much easier to use.

you need the .vms not the .vmi
to do this:
-go over the link and choose COPY
-on the URL bar choose PASTE
-change the extension to .vms
-download

this works on most VMU files on the net.

to transfer to the VMU you need a NEXUS CARD or any VMU with a PC link cable.

I too have started to make a 'Space Invaders' type game quite a while
back... actually it's a mix between 'Wavy Navy' (where your ship moves on
waves) and 'Galaxians' (where the enemies also fly occasional attacks).
But I stopped halfway through because everyone seemed to have turned away
from the VMU and instead started programming on the Dreamcast, so all I
have is a very very early beta (playable, but only one 'demo' level to
test if all movement etc. works properly).

However, if anyone wants to have a look, you can download it here:
