I have some code to draw a grid of rects:

Code: Select all

start:
	screen 128
	goto loop
	
loop:
	for i=1 to 5
	for j=1 to 5
	color rnd(1)*15
	rect i*25,j*25,i+15, j+15
	next j
	next i
	goto loop

But using the color command seems to not change the color of the rect color in graphics mode.

I'm gonna make a macro for poking to the video memory, (named pvr). Can you please give me an example of poking to the vram? NOTE: I'm using DASM

In X16 Basic, you can use VPoke to poke to the VERA registers, like this:

Code: Select all

VPOKE 1,1
VPOKE 2,2

But in 6502 assembly, you use LDX and STA. How do we poke to the VERA in assembly?
