sack-c0s Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Nautic impressions... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pb5XeVTJTM Nice picture - but it does look like a case of 'colours for the sake of colours'. I'm not sure which of the reds/purples I'd use (I'd be more inclined to try with the pale red, beneath the yellow of the sun), but I reckon it'd look better if you just stuck with one of the colour ranges.

It's simply not finished, depending on editing bugs in G2F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emkay Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) Today I found this video and was wondering. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fJyS723Um8 Because that's what I remember, SID sounding for real. The tune, played on the original thing has pitch problems with the "Guitar Sound". Well, I know about the issues with my "Testtune", keeping always some correction pause at the start of an instrument and those emulation bugs, but it is even more stable than the C64 one. Any explanation, why the C64 goes out of tune with the "Guitar Sound" there? Edited November 16, 2011 by emkay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rybags Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Poor conversion, I see no reason else why they couldn't have gotten the notes right. It is playing during tape load but the only restriction there would be the play routine can't use big chunks of CPU at a time. Just tried the disk version (although cracked), it doesn't even bopther to provide the music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sack-c0s Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) the fact it's tape loading shouldn't make any difference - the interrupt routine just kicks in at the start of a tape pulse, measures the length to determine the incoming bit and returns control to the main loop where everything else is done. You can do far more than that during a loader and still be okay. The only limitations are you can't be *too* accurate with your timings or use a ratser interrupt (you'd need to busy-wait on $D012 for the line you wanted, and allow for a bit of jitter). Here's a few better examples: Invade-a-load: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqCR6xnv1kE&feature=player_detailpage#t=20s Better loading music by Jonathan Dunn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=821SBiTNvdg Sanxion by Rob Hubbard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGjDKa3F9OI Delta (Mix your own music whilst it loads): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79UMFLJLi7w And probably the most impressive would be Dragons lair - where technically the whole game is the loader. it's just not a good conversion I think. To be honest I don't like the Amiga version that much either Edited November 16, 2011 by sack-c0s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Hitech 256 colour picture plus music with some sawtooth sounds making it even more "hitec" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRl1LN3pkSA It's a funny day May I get this as an honor to POKEY or do I have more musically skills than I thought The tune seems "clear enough" to be realized as a copyrighted piece of music.

Tin_Lunchbox Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Most of these are very, very good. When I looked at the first one, I thought that those trees would look very nice in a first-person or modified-first-person golf game. The Atari 8-bit had Mean 18 and Leader Board. I never played them but from what I read and looked at in online videos, Leader Board was a little better, but it didn't have any trees. It would be great to have a golf game with trees like that in post #1. G2F is a powerful tool for pictures, but does it have any potential beyond single, static pictures?

G2F is a picture converter/editing tool. What's beyond, is just by the coders, using the created stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
