Title: tempSwapArea+256
Post by: Deep Toaster on April 29, 2011, 06:40:39 pm

Anybody know what this address does? For some reason it keeps changing every time I do anything at all. Even when I view it in a hex viewer, all I have to do is press a single key and the value there changes.

I'm using Axe, so maybe it's something Axe-specific, but in case it isn't, anybody know what it is?

And I know I posted this problem in the Axe Project forum. That was just in case it's specific to the way Axe does something; I'll delete it if it's not related.

Thanks for any tips!

Well, TempSwapArea = $82A5. So simple enough, $82A5 + 256 = $83A5 = MD5Buffer. MD5Buffer is hardly ever used, the only time would be when receiving OS's and Apps.

So to answer your question, the axe program you are using is changing it. (It doesn't change in Omnicalc)

Aww, what? MD5Buffer is a part of tempSwapArea? D:

That explains everything. Axe itself uses MD5Buffer for a ton of things -- r1-r6, run-time info, etc....

Thanks for the answer!

I love Chrome's Find function -- amazingly fast and easy to use. It's one of the things Google definitely got right :D
