Hi, I've been trying to find out how to get the address of Intuition's pointer. I've got a custom copper list set up, and would like to use sprite zero at the top of the screen for animation, and then return it to intuition about 3/4 of the way down the screen. The trouble is, I haven't been able to find any intelligent way to learn where Intuition has its pointer stored. Also, is it possible to reload the sprite pointer 3/4 of the way down the screen, and have it point to the Intuition pointer? The hardware manual describes having the sprite all in one chunk of memory in order to reuse the sprite dma. Hopefully I can just reload the pointers from the copper list, because having the intuition pointer, and my animation data in one contiguous chunk would be quite painful... Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Bruce Rogers -s110018@pollux.ucdavis.edu _______________________________________________________________________________ Just a man whose circumstances went beyond his control....
