Creature XL Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 That Tut image is spectacular - I can only imagine the impact these images would've had back when the 8bit was released if the technique was known.............. Honestly? Not much. The sales of 8-Bits wer defined by games. Here is the reply from my C64-mate back in the days, when I told him that is computer suckes because all his games use the same colors. "But you don't have these games on your Atari". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thinking is before the C64 got traction and having an adventure game published with images like above. That would've gotten some attention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) My thinking is before the C64 got traction and having an adventure game published with images like above. That would've gotten some attention. In several aspects, the Atari could have kept more attention, particular with those high-colour pictures, and ego view games. But that one spot, called "SID" made the rolling of the C64 fast to the 1st selling place. Still thinking of Rescue on Fractalus, slow as a interactive slideshow, people loaded the game just for listening to the SID playing...

Rybags Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I doubt it... the music and effects of C64 RoF are well inferior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Jefferson Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I've been attempting to convert this picture. Without much luck, mostly the results are pretty bad. Anyone else want to take a shot at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Looks like there's not much hue variation (good thing) but not much luma variation either which I imagine would probably result in big patches of sameness. Maybe if you ran it thru photoshop and give it a gamma boost so there's more luma spread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Without much luck, mostly the results are pretty bad. Anyone else want to take a shot at it? Depends on what you expect. 5 Minutes in the converter: dwarfquick.xex "filter=box h=160 pal=laoo dither=none " The "26" colours themselves do well to the picture.

Rybags Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Like I said, lots of sameness. Not the program's fault, but just not a picture that's immediately suitable. Additional to what I already suggested I'd throw some more hues in there - maybe make the staircase and statue a different colour at least so the program is made to stretch it's muscles a bit more.

MARIO130XE Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I've been attempting to convert this picture. dwarven_caverns_concept_art_2_by_artofjokinen-d5mibt5.jpg Without much luck, mostly the results are pretty bad. Anyone else want to take a shot at it? Hey Shawn, I have tested some settings, but the result isn't really nice on the LCD and Emulators. I think it would look more acceptable on a CRT. I'll take a screenshot of my 1084 later, after finishing my working day. Greetings, Mario cavern.xex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know these renderings take a lot of iterations but is there any chance you might re-do these with the OlivierN.act palette so that we owners of NTSC machines might enjoy these pictures? -SteveS palettes.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking this picture is not really suitable to the Atari. Too bad, I was hoping to have a "title" screen for my Moria project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
