How do I compile a program written in ASM for the Amstrad CPC and run it on retro virtual machine?

[Reymon-Real]

Although I see the documentation, I do not understand how to do it. On the one hand it compiles the program and I see the binary, but on the other hand it gives me a “.bin” file and I want a sna or dsk file. I saw the SAVE part but it always tells me that it does not find the file.

There is some examples in the documentation to create snapshots

I'm not the author of RVM so i cannot help you with this emulator. Use ACE-DL :p http://www.roudoudou.com/ACE-DL/ It will benefit extra informations of the snapshot

@EdouardBERGE Thanks, I don't understand the documentation on the sna and dsk part. Here is what I have in my Makefile to see what my error is.

src := src bin := bin rasm := rasm_win64

all: @$(rasm) -I $(src) -utf8 -sw -o $(bin)/main main.asm @$(rasm) -I $(bin) -utf8 -eo main.bin @RetroVirtualMachine

[EdouardBERGE]

once rasm has compiled your main.asm, there is nothing to do with the binary main.bin (except putting it in an emulator) you must add in your main.asm some lines (to output a file, a snapshot or a DSK, don't know what you want)

@EdouardBERGE I didn't understand that, I really wanted to make a sna, but I didn't understand how, so I tried to make a dsk. It didn't work either and I read the documentation for quite a while until I finally gave up and came to ask.

buildsna
bankset 0
org #100
run #100
; your assembly code here

this will generate a snapshot see the links i sent you for explanations of each directives

@EdouardBERGE Thank you very much
