Batari Basic and the Standard Kernel Sprite Bank

[EvoMikeUK]

Hi All,

Does anyone know the most efficient way to store sprite and colour data using the standard kernel?

The standard kernel sticks it all in the last bank, limiting to 4k.

I would like any tips on how you make this 4k work hardest, or.... increase to 8k?

I want a LOT of sprites and colour data.

Hi EvoMikeUk,

 

This might be of assistance to you:

I've used a similar process for my Tower of Rubble conversion (though for DPC+ which is slightly different in how you access the player pointers) - I've got 60 frames for the player.
