Heaven/TQA Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I am digging through my hard disc and found this little intro which I have written on the 4th of july 2006 (oh... it was independence day...haven't realised that but instead I wrote that intro in few hours prior Germany vs Italy soccer game... GRRRR... ) not sure if I ever posted that here as well... so it is preserved (and I can post it on Pouet as well... ) the intro uses the Numen display mode ("turbo mode 9++" ) and was done very oldschoolish titel85.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twh/f2 Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Heaven, that's a nice one! If you only would visit one or more parties the year and contribute stuff like this to compos!!!!!! I'm right now at the Breakpoint party in Bingen. Great atmosphere but we are only twh 8-bit Atarians (TWW/MNX and me). This time we are just visitors and don't release something to the "Real Wild" compo. http://breakpoint.untergrund.net/ http://bptv.untergrund.net/ many greetings, \twh::taos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 I wanted to visit Breakpoint but I have to stay at home... maybe some day... it's interesting that even german famous magazine is writing about demo scene: http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/spielzeug/0...,542766,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Philsan Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 (edited) Thank you. I am not able to understand the technical content of your page but now I know what "turbo mode 9++" is. The Shrine and Numen use this mode, right? Philsan/n00bs Edited March 24, 2008 by Philsan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yup. the summary is that you use the internal "cache" for doubling scanlines...so you get the square pixels without doing that via display list... Numen uses this mode, not sure about Shrine. But best is you can use this mode for a 40x40 charmode, I guess I have posted a demo here already some time ago. But Theta Music Composer is using this mode as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
