Asmskool is back! (Amiga Hardware Programming series)
I've been coming back to Creativity last few weeks (not only Amiga) and wasn't sure I was ready, but decided it was time to make good on the series and complete this demo all the way.
In this episode, I add cloud layers to the demo, together with the graphics and code support needed to achieve this effect. It shows how to add double-buffering to screen buffers, move objects, and build coordinates lists. ...It's likely some of you here know this stuff The goal of the series is to show every step. You can use the chapters to skip, and I ask a question in comments which I'd love an answer to. "Buffered Clouds" -> [ Show youtube player ] |

Great, thanks!
I've watched a bit so far, it's nice and long so I had to split it into multiple viewing sessions |

Cool video! I watched yesterday part of it and found it very interesting. Since it is so long, I can't really watch it in one go.
Would be nice if you could post the link to the first video, though. |

[OT] edit: by the way, if you speak FR and following ASM coding tutorial in FR is easier, you can follow this link : https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=...wMEzFineHt0rdc He has some funny remarks during the tutorial as well [/OT] Last edited by malko; 31 August 2021 at 13:42. |

Thanks a lot
I hear you about the episode length. It wouldn't make sense to viewers to split it up, because the buffering of the screens and the coordinates lists depend on each other, for the whole thing to work. The next episodes can be split up and will be shorter. |

Don't forget also Wei-Ju Wu, Tomaz Kragelj, and Dutch Retro Guy! I've checked them out recently to catch up with what everyone is doing. Recommended!

Ah, I've never seen Wei-Ju Wu or Tomaz Kragelj, I'll be sure to check them out.
Hope to be adding to my series soon-ish as well. Got a new video idea anyway. Now all I need to do is make the code, the article and the video Really nice to see other people's code regardless, not done watching yours yet - but I've been watching 30-45 minutes every day so far |

Sweet Once my "ground plate" series is done I can reference it and take on more advanced subjects. I haven't planned that far, but have some ideas about the next videos and may ask viewers. |

Amiga Future DDE series was very ambitious, I had to explain and code effects from 30 years in 2 years. It's also different when it's in print, you can't develop, then release, then explain/writeup. Explanation is either correct the first time, or you lie to everyone who likes you. Same with the code which is printed, archive must match, no updates because then source doesn't match article.
I remember coding correct bump mapping for AGA and coming to a disheartening realization, I was checking demos that do it realtime which quickly narrowed to where I couldn't really find one (need demo link for article) and then what's the point of showing how? I felt guilty for abandoning this and Youtube, and was sure I would be looked down upon. The difference now is that there are more important things than worrying about me. And also a more egocentric perspective, I guess. No create = unhappy. OK, maybe for more than me. Get it out there. |

Hey, When I tried to relearn asm a couple of years ago I still had my code disks and my HRM and I was like "wtf is this stuff? Did I even ever know this" (My 15 yr old self did not comment the source files). I found your asm tutorials on youtube and after skimming through them everything came flooding back so that's why you've had a greet in the 3 prods I've done because I don't know if I'd had got there otherwise.
Do what you enjoy and share it and there will always be at least one person who is glad you did. Do we really need more of a reason when coding on a dead machine is actually quite insane? |
