Re: Best way to learn ASM, tips and stuff.

I'm not a good programmer or anything.
Here is a tutorial I found, have not followed through it but it might be a good start.

Re: Best way to learn ASM, tips and stuff.

First, I'd recommend reading through the ASM school material. After you hit the "not yet done" wall, move over to http://wiki.ladecadence.net/doku.php?id … nsamblador, and use google translate if ypu don't read Spanish. Between those two, as well as the gbcpuman.pdf should get you well on your way.

Re: Best way to learn ASM, tips and stuff.

Hi a cat,
It's in Jeff Frowhein's [spelling?] include files. There's a link on the asmschool website. I can upload it when I get home from work if you haven't found it.

EDIT: link for include files: http://gameboy.mongenel.com/dmg/frohwein.zip
