snicklin Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 It looks very nice indeed. Aren't there too many colours per horizontal line though? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Adam+ Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 It is a presentation of "popmilo's graphics mode" created by popmilo himself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
José Pereira Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 That is using PAL Blending and it's in GR.15 where:BAK on all screen scanlines it's black then: -> Odd scanlines: white, gray and dark gray -> Even scanlines: green, blue and brown It then produces the blending between them increasing the number of colours (similar to those GR.9+GR.11 Project M by NRV). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snicklin Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 You did so much work that I'll name a character in the game José You may need to enable the international character set It is looking great by the way, best wishes with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
José Pereira Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) You may need to enable the international character set It is looking great by the way, best wishes with it. Very Funny!... And what's the problem? You have [é] on ATASCII just POKE 756,204 to have the International Character Set enabled (indeed there is only one or two letters from Portuguese Alphabet that there's missing there...): Edited July 1, 2014 by José Pereira 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popmilo Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 No need for international character set (to be honest, didn't even know such thing existed)... So far, everything is in bitmap mode, so any kind of written script known to man is allowed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popmilo Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 it is only big scrolling Picture . . .? No... Lots of cool stuff going on under that shiny surface Of course it's far from finished, there is plenty of even cooler stuff to be done... Hope it will be finished in next couple of months... I'll try to keep you guys informed... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it was yesterday My daughter was born in 2015 and all plans went out the window Code is still in my dev folder, I did publish Monk that year in abbuc compo. It is basically this older version world generator + rpg-item-fight-zombies engine under the hood of simple gtia screen. There are no technical obstacles to make this pal blending version. Only problem is lack of time as always... Plan is to add underground, crafting like original minicraft, etc. We'll see. Think first will be improved beatemup based on my small entry for abbuc this year. Stay tuned 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
