8-bit acorn software: classic games • Re: Running Exile from Econet

BeebASM file has been uploaded to my github page:

https://github.com/kgl2001/Exile-Loader

There are a few selectable options at the top of the ExileL.asm file:
  • The ExileL loader file can be based on the original from either the STH disc, or from the Release 3 disc. Use the Version = STH or Version = V3 switch to select the version.
  • You can build either a disc or econet version. Use FSN = DFS or FSN = NET to select the file system.
  • You can choose to strip out redundant code. Use STRIP = TRUE or STRIP = FALSE as appropriate.
If you select the DFS & FALSE options for FSN & STRIP, then BeebASM will rebuild the original loader binary file for the selected STH / V3 version. SHA1s for the original disc versions of ExileL are:
  • STH File SHA1: c3d934b5c4e039aa76ce25e360e04c1f71468132
  • V3 File SHA1: cb8a12fad92fcfc139caa2e9107e807d3aa952d6
I've updated ExileL.asm so it will now build all known 'Release' versions of ExileL, and a Custom version. Change the VERSION on line 40 of the .asm file to one of the following:

V1: DFS based Release 1
V2: DFS based Release 2
V3: DFS based Release 3
STH: DFS based STH Release
MC: ADFS based Release for Master Compact (will also work with other Master versions, but any HDD should be switched off)
Custom: This option is mainly to allow you to build a NFS version. Other configurations are possible via selectable options in lines 81..87

I'll get around to updating the Readme over the next couple of days.
