Only 8 they are (black, grays and white) so wtf where's the 9th that must be a colour/other... like some pages ago on another 'mono' but this one was much more difficult. It's just a single green pixel: 😀

(Is There A) List of Atari/C64 "Flippy" Disks...
José Pereira replied to DavidD's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
There's a topic here where this was explained by someone on "How it could be?" but don't remember... a year or two ago... It was a complete surprise to me and now I can't remember the explanation of how it could be done. Anyone here remembers or know the explanation (think it reads some/different tracks then jumps A8 or C64...)? -
Converting C64 multicolor graphics to A8
José Pereira replied to drunkeneye's topic in Atari 5200 / 8-bit Programming
Post here the gfxs or message me if you want... On C64 multicolour there's two modes: -> Bitmap: all in 2:1 ratio and 16colours on-screen that can be 3 own colours per char and 1 the same on all chars (the more difficult to get on A8. An example is game(s) Last Ninja series); -> Charmode: 1 own colour per char and 3 the same on all chars but can also have 1:1 ratio/hi-res chars mixed on screen with 1 own colour and the other be 1 of those 3 on all chars (the best and simple to get on A8 though A8 charsets have only 128chars each while C64 has 256chars) though C64 own per char colour in 2:1 ratio can be only colours 0->7 of the C64 palette. On A8 this own per char colour are limited to 2 colours possible (PF2 and PF3) while C64 can have those 0->7 so 8colours unique per char; -

Bruce Lee Graphics Mode
José Pereira replied to jonesypeter's topic in Atari 5200 / 8-bit Programming
PMGs can be used in any mode just changing its using in some modes/priorities. PFs are the pixels gfxs so in the char modes 2:1 and 2:2 ratio: BAK: border and paper (a ZX basic one 😉😄) colour can be on all chars; PF0 and PF1: the other two common on all chars; PF2 or PF3: the 4th colour on a char (can only be one or the other on a char); (it works similar to C64 but this one has 8 unique per char instead of only two on A8) Ps.- down the screen can be used DLIs, that is changing colours on different scanlines like sky blue to a wall gray and a this to a dark one near the floor,... -
Bruce Lee Graphics Mode
José Pereira replied to jonesypeter's topic in Atari 5200 / 8-bit Programming
Is in basic charmode GR.13 or Antic mode 5 that is in 2:2 ratio so are the 5colours: -> BAK, PF0 and PF1 common on all chars; -> PF2 or PF3 unique per char / 4th colour (the two cannot be on the same char); Bruce uses two Players and Yamo the other two while Ninja uses the 5th Player (the 4Missiles 8pixels wide combined so PF3 is always black on the chars gfxs). 👍 -
and 2 color eyes... 😄
