(old posts are there, I chose to create a new topic to have a central location for download and comments)
I've just updated my modified version of Bastian Schick's and friends BJL uploader program, called lo_inp, which supports Windows NT/2000/XP. Support for Linux has been (re)-added (by special request from SebRmv  , and minor tweaks have been made.Enjoy, and please give feedback !

Thanks Zerosquare!, I'm just now getting used to using bjl and learning about programming the Jaguar and I am sure this will be of great use to me under Windows XP & 98 which is what I have right now. Although there are advantages, of course, to using either a Felix, Rapier or Alpine development system like probably debugging, I'm intrigued with how Matthias uses only BJL to develop such highly polished titles as Double Feature #1.
Your work is really appreciated!  Thanks.

If lo_inp supports Windows NT/2000/XP, it does not support Windows 95/98 then?

Bumping an old thread, I know, but I just tested it on my old winxp box and the 8bit loader worked without errors, so thanks

I tried it under Windows 7 64bits and it didn't worked at first.
I had to update the inpout32.dll file with a more updated one. Just download this package http://www.highrez.co.uk/scripts/download....=InpOutBinaries Start the "InstallDriver.exe" file in the Win32 folder. Replace the dll file from lo_inp by the one in the Win32 folder of the package (it's compatible 32/64bits) I recently found out that virtualjaguar only support .abs file with header, and not .bin file with no header. But lo_inp doesn't support .abs file (it doesn't find any header) So I was wondering if the .abs file support can be added ? Has anyone some abs header information ? -------------------- my Website with all my homebrew projects !

ABS header :
- Magic Number = 0x601B - TEXT segment size (4 Bytes) - DATA segment size (4 Bytes) - BSS segment size (4 Bytes) - Symbol table size (4 Bytes) - ? (4 Bytes) - TEXT base address (4 Bytes) - Flags = 0xFFFF - DATA base address (4 Bytes) - BSS base address (4 Bytes) -------------------- Nyan ! :p

Thank you SCPCD !
I modified the original package to add ABS file support. I didn't tested it already and I don't know if the code is correct, but hopefully  http://onorisoft.free.fr/jag/lo_inp.zip (I also updated to the latest version of inpout32.dll) -------------------- my Website with all my homebrew projects !

I was wondering, if a website with all the resources for jag dev exist ?
Some years ago I was a bit confused, and didn't know where to start or where to find all the docs and dev tools There should be a page with all the link to lo_inp for BJL transfer, sln and smac for deving on modern OSs, link to tutorials and jagv8 doc etc... That would be nice for newcomers -------------------- my Website with all my homebrew projects !

oh well ... nevermind ... Nice job Zerosquare
By the way, I just tested my new version of lo_inp, it worked with some .abs file I tried ! I hope I didn't do any mistake in the code ^^ I just UPXed the executable because my antivirus program was detecting a virus in the original exe file ... (heuristic detection sux :/) -------------------- my Website with all my homebrew projects !

CAREFUL: IT DOESN'T WORK !!
I thought I had a bug yesterday in my program, but it was my new version of lo_inp that wasn't working, it seems not to transfer the whole program and datas are missing at the end ! I don't know why, maybe if someone find where I did a mistake, the code I added is at the end of the file in the function relocate. -------------------- my Website with all my homebrew projects !

Bumpety bump
Since I'm in the process of adding BJL support to JiFFI I thought I'd get the uploader from this thread for tests. Then I noticed Orion_'s abs enabled version which would suit my purposes better.

I don't know why, maybe if someone find where I did a mistake, the code I added is at the end of the file in the function relocate. Just had a look at the code - might I suggest uploading the whole file minus the header (which is $a8 bytes for $601b coff header and $24 bytes for $150 abs header)? Perhaps the header has wrong sizes stored! I'd test if I could, but no PC with parallel cable here! (BTW the BJL uploader for ST that I patched for COFF some time ago does exactly this and works fine) |
