Copperlists in AMOS

[Lonewolf10]

Hi,

I am trying to create my own copperlist in AMOS but keep failing. I can make various rainbows by simply changing the value of colour 0 on each scanline, but when it comes to making a proper copperlist it always ends up in a black screen

Has anyone else here ever got there own copperlist working in *AMOS*? I need to be sure that it is possible and not that the commands don;t work.

Here is my copperlist (allegedly the AMOS default one according to "CopDis.AMOS" found in "Kyzer.lha" on Aminet):

I am aware that the format for Cop Move in AMOS is:

Cop Move ADDRESS,VALUE


I did have the values the wrong way round until earlier today, but that still didn't make any difference.


Any assistance/advice welcome.

Sorry, I haven't returned to check this out sooner.


I now have working copperlists (thanks to acquiring 2 Amiga Hardware Reference Manuals off ebay (1985 & 1989 editions)) which support all colour modes and my own custom rainbows.

The only problem I have now is that sprites don't work and that it seems to stop doing screen DMA half across and 4/5's the way down the screen.
Any advice?

Yeah the comments after the colon (":") are the english (non-geek) version
