Devpac from hard drive
Hi,
I tried to run Perihelion's code for loading Degas pictures but I can't do it from the HD, Devpac looks for the file on A:. How do I set it up to look for the file on C:? I tried adding C: in the bottom two lines in the environment window (don't know what they're for), but it didn't change anything. Or is it best to keep everything on floppy disk?
Thanks for any help!

Re: Devpac from hard drive
it's the incbin staement at the bottom of the code, edit that to point to where the pic is on your C: drive
something like this:
picture incbin c:\code\tut07\font2.pi1
something like this:
picture incbin c:\code\tut07\font2.pi1

Also, I'll post that if someone else searches the forum and gets to this post because that's where I should've actually searched: http://dev-docs.atariforge.org/

Re: Devpac from hard drive
That 7th tutorial is not the easiest! Did you try to run the first program, the one only getting the "C"? It gives me two bombs... :scratches head:spiny wrote:don't worry, I'm still trying to get to grips with scrollers

Tried to install devpac 3.1 (found here : http://dhs.nu/files.php?t=single&ID=5) but it keeps asking for disk A. Any idea ?

hi up under files, there is on called "change directory" just use that and you don't need the path in the incbin.YQN wrote:Feel stupid for not trying thatspiny wrote:it's the incbin staement at the bottom of the code, edit that to point to where the pic is on your C: drive

I had the same problem, you need to check the "Environment" options:Sturm wrote:Tried to install devpac 3.1 (found here : http://dhs.nu/files.php?t=single&ID=5) but it keeps asking for disk A. Any idea ?
Then change the paths to where your files are. Looks like this on my system:
