kezax Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Hello, I was watching this Lynx Taxi Movie Demo on atarigamer today. How is this working ? Is it streaming data from the cartridge and uncompressing on the fly ? Also it needs to stream some audio sample. Seems really outstanding performance for the Lynx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOVE screen,ptr ldy #SCREENSIZE/256 .loop lda #0 stx .loopx jsr ReadByte sta ptr,x inx bne .loop inc ptr+1 dey bra .loop For BadApple, a bit more complicated as the data is packed as sprites. thus reading and stream unpacking thread plus sprite engine plus music. I think the source is on github. Edited October 17, 2022 by sage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
