UberASM Tool 2.0

Finally! Huge!

IT'S OUT

LGTM, tested with Windows 10 22H2 (OS Build 19045.4651).
This is a massive update with a lot of new features and as such breaks a very small number of current uberasm patches, however the README outlines the methods to fix these incompatibilities, which is ok.

So on top of libraries can use the shared routines, you can do something you can't do with pixi and gps: have one subroutine ASM file call another subroutine ASM file. This limitation is very frustrating that you have to have multiple subroutines in one ASM file.

 Fernap I see, I'd expect GM14_end to be run before any calculations to write to the SNES register at the end of the frame, didn't know it occurs after $008494. No need to check $13D4 then while using *.

 Fernap Unless if you want to have a custom sprite status bar/HUD across levels.

Upon testing this tool with the end: label for both level (level-specific) and gamemode14 (all levels), I notice there are differences regarding when the game is paused: For level end, this code is not executed, while in gamemode14's end, it is executed even when the game is paused.

Be careful and check RAM $13D4 if you are designing code that writes to OAM every frame on gamemode14 end that searches for free OAM slots, because it is possible that each frame, it will fill up the OAM table with duplicate tiles written on top of or underneath the previous frame's tiles, because the game does not clear OAM tiles at the start of the frame when paused. When too many OAM tiles are onscreen, this can cause sprite overdraw issues where a row of pixels for sprites fail to render.

Once this passes, I bet the uberasm tool section will be flooded with sprite-related stuff, such as HUD-related displays. The end: label makes this possible.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Version 2.0 can add more ASM, for example for level 106 I can also add HDMA,Parallax Scroll but on different txt all in the same level?

for some reason, crashes on launch because it "could not parse list file", because it "doesn't exist", even though it does.
Correction: It seems like it just doesn't like ROMs that aren't named "SMW.smc", and aren't inside the same folder as UberASMTool.

I should've been more specific and detailed on how I ran into this issue. Yes, I was using uberasm tool's library file when working on this.

Be very careful when you are using 16-bit address indexing ($xxxx,x or $xxxx,y), as you need to use

Because it may end up loading data from the wrong bank depending on how many times you reinsert the tool. When you insert the ASM codes, the inserted code can sometimes be at a different bank.

Excited for the multiple files per level feature. Can we expect that anytime soon?

Shouldn't this be called 1.51 or something? I wouldn't expect such minor changes over a 1.6

Tested with:
Windows 10 21H2 (OS Build 19044.1826)
Lunar Magic 3.31
Pixi 1.32
GPS 1.4.3
AddmusicK 1.0.8
Tested on:
LOROM/SA-1 ROMs with multiple resources.
No conflicts or issues noticed. Works fine, also checked out changes in source code directly, nothing of remark was seen.

Bom demais!

That doesn't work, look https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=faq&page=1515827-uberasm here for a workaround.

How do you make multiple ASM's run at the same number? EX:
14 code.asm
14 code2.asm
Everytime I try to do it it gives an error saying "Number is already used."

hope dis'll work

Is there any tutorial on this tool? I looked but couldn't find any.

During SMWCP2 development, I stumbled across a big issue: I found out that if we ever use the 'nmi' label in some overworld code and level code, the game will always crash when entering ANY level, regardless of using custom code or not.

So keep that in mind when you stumble across general level entrance crashes.

By the way, a workaround is to put your (OW or level NMI code, preferably OW) codes somewhere else (like global or gamemode) and run them there, using some comparison checks depending on your case and needs.

why its not on MAC OS too

Still useful for HDMAs, and codes

good tool

Dosen't work, I give it a low rating.

really good!

really good!

Great tool I used it easily when I dind't know too much about asm It's very simple to use!

Yeah that's so weird to insert 2 ASMs in a level. The tool is so simple that I always imagined it would insert them both if I just both 2 lines with the same level number.
I mean, once you know, it's not really hard. But weird.

Inserting Multiple ASMs in same level is somewhat hard.

I wish the tool could insert multiple ASMs easily.

Ok, now this is epic

Tested within: Windows 10 and batch files.

Worked fine, and I tested for checking the glitches it should fix. Therefore, accepted.

work with LM 3.00?

can I use uberasm tool 1.2 because you put a warming about v1.3

You forgot to update the tool, Vitor!

Will take a look.

There is a strange bug that happens when I missed an endif in the defines and it causes a strange error with the incsrc and sometimes can crash the program.

image.
Here is my work causing it to happen.

The missing endif is in GraphicalBarDefines/StatusBarSettings.asm on line 17.

Already works with LM 3.00!

Uberasm 1.4 For LM 3.00

In version 1.3, when inserting patches the tool crashes when trying to compile the library files and gives this exception: "System.NullReferenceException: Object not set to an instance of an object".
Version 1.2 (with the same files) works fine instead.

Warning: v1.3 is considered an unofficial release because it was submitted without updating the repo nor building by me. Use at your own risk.

Next version will skip this one.

My status bar code won't insert, UberASM keeps changing line 8 to "JSR status_bar_main" while it should be "JSR statusbar_main" and there's no way for me to stop it from changing it

my UberASM tool does not work

Meu menino

NOTE: Edited to update for Asar 1.50 support.
@LX5: It's still quite simple, actually, you were almost there. To do that, you need to not only update the Asar.dll, but also the Asar.cs file and then rebuild the application. Asar.cs is what binds to the DLL and checks for the correct version, so by updating that, it will take the newest version of Asar.

LDA !sprite_y_low,x
LDA !D8,x

How would the sprite defines work?

I've tried

and...

...in the the level.asm, although, neither worked.

Is there a way for the levelASM to affect sprites as well?

I made a small change to a file because the tool was popping a lot of errors related to a misplaced endif. It's fixed now.

It's not compatible with super FX chip :<? Or somebody just forgot tag and it's something wrong with me?

I wish there was real tutorials somewhere. Like, explaining you from the beginning, without considering you already know half of it

Damn bruh.

Vitor, you made my day feel better. You da real MVP, bruh.

This is definitely complicated, but not impossible

Lol:


When fixing the super status bar code, and entering level 105, mario gets high.

It's on website field.

You forgot the source code link.
