To report bugs, it would help if we had a copy of the latest version available somewhere

u/Keoni29 November 27, 2014, 10:59:39 PM

There is this memory leak that has not been fixed yet. It corrupts the TblSet variable. I want to fix that before I release the next build.

Ah ok. I was wondering since you told us to report bugs that we find, but we can't report them if we can't play.

u/Keoni29 November 28, 2014, 11:18:14 PM

I can probably solve this memory leak today. I will most likely release a new build tonight.

u/Dream of Omnimaga November 29, 2014, 03:27:06 AM

Ok good luck! (although I assume it will be tomorrow for you?

Do you have any clue what might cause the leak yet?

u/Keoni29 November 29, 2014, 08:24:35 AM

It is something that happens before, during or after the titlescreen. Not the main game.

u/Dream of Omnimaga November 29, 2014, 07:09:35 PM

Ah ok. Is it a continuous drop or just one single memory decrease?

u/novenary November 30, 2014, 09:24:42 AM

So it's the interrupt ? What does the interrupt do ?

u/Keoni29 November 30, 2014, 11:34:19 AM

It is used for playing back TIMID music, but even with no code in the isr ( immediately returning) this leak occurs. I suspect that something else is leaking into L2 which in turn causes the interrupts to behave strangely.

Have you tried using LnReg^r? According to Runer that should fix it.

u/Keoni29 November 30, 2014, 02:48:29 PM

Yes I use that.

u/pimathbrainiac November 30, 2014, 02:50:25 PM

Hmmmm... Perhaps compile with an older version of Axe that uses L2 instead of the new RAM area for interrupt storage?

u/Keoni29 November 30, 2014, 02:52:06 PM

Which ram area is used with the latest version? More importantly: how come something else overwrites this reserved ram area? I am using all of L1 and GDB's for the rest.

u/novenary November 30, 2014, 03:11:16 PM

Well L2 happens to be aligned to 256 bytes and to be of the right size for the im2 vector table so that's why most stuff stores it there. I have no idea what the issue could be.

You should try to run your program through Wabbit's debugger if you know some ASM (you can also monitor RAM from there so you can see what it overrides I guess).
