It took me some time too to figuere out, that makewav uses mode 1-3 as default for 6k games and not mode 2-3 like in 4k games. >Seems to be working now.

This keeps my source readily convertible to the F8 >bank-switching model I already had working. I had that problem too. I solved it by modifying the MAKEROM program, that came with the ASM65 assembler on the CD, so that it would create a 12k ROM from $D000 to $FFFF internally and only save banks that have code assembled into them. Since the 6507 only uses 13 address lines $D000 is the same as $F000. That way you can easyly ORG bank1 at $D000, bank2 at $D800 and bank3 at $F800 using makewavs default values plus is is all in one sourcecode with all the same symbollic names. I think DASM uses a similar method.
