Welcome to the forums guys!

You've been so supportive of the PGD community, it's great to have you guys join us.

I look forward to seeing more games made with Smart. Especially with all the cool things I've seen you guys posting on the Smart website so far.

Hi,
I first learnt to program (in pascal) a few years ago and have just picked it up again but I have got stuck with allegro.pas. I'm using a raspberry pi and the demo compiled fine, and I copied all the files into the units/arm-linux directory, but whenever I try to compile one of the examples, I get:

albase.pas(209) Error: Can't create assembler file: /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.0/units/arm-linux/allegro.pas/albase.pas/albase.s

Is this just a problem with the raspberry pi, or can it be fixed?
Please can someone help me!

You're right, User137.

Anyway...

It's the common "write permissions" issue. You can fix it by using option -FU. BTW I'm not sure it will work, AFAIK Allegro doesn't has rasperry pi support, so Allegro.pas doesn't too... But I may be wrong.

I'm HappyMember, programming "almost daily" for 6 years and not satisfied with the code generated by compilers.

In the present day I am making games in "x86 Assembly" using game libraries compiled by Free Pascal for Linux based systems only (Why? (answer below)).

Windows has too many games + It isn't free + The work involved to feed a giant is not worthy.

I do this just for fun and pleasure, I do not intend to make money or sell them in any way. I don't even play the games when I finish them (LOL!).

Welcome HappyMember.

Programming in x86 Assembly... You're mad...

Welcome HappyMember.

Thank you!
