=========== AsmGen =========== Abstract ======== AsmGen - code generator for sprites, fonts, and images for Apple ][ hi-res and Atari 8-bit computers This program creates 6502 (or 65c02) code that draws sprites using unrolled loops for each shifted shape. By removing data shifts, image lookups, and loops the images can be drawn much faster than otherwise possible. Other utilities include generating code for reporting screen damage, a fast bitmap font renderer, and generation for all the row/column lookup tables for each supported bitmap mode. Installing From Source ====================== The autogenerator code is written in Python and should run on any platform that can use python Prerequisites ------------- * python 2.7 (but not 3.x yet) * numpy * pypng Credits ======= The sample font is modified from Michael Pohoreski's excellent tutorial on Apple II fonts: https://github.com/Michaelangel007/apple2_hgr_font_tutorial Disclaimer ========== AsmGen, the 6502 code generator sponsored by the Player/Missile Podcast Copyright (c) 2017 Rob McMullen (feedback@playermissile.com) This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
