Subject: [stella] My version of a scrolling demo From: Eckhard Stolberg <Eckhard_Stolberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 01 Jul 1999 14:24:28 +0200 |
John said he doesn't mind some competition and he wondered how much difference a six sprite routine would make to the scrolling display, so I did two little demos by myself. They work like Kurt has sugested it, so I hope he isn't disapointed about my programming skills as well. ;-) Both feature a font which is 7 (double)scanlines high and up to 8 pixels wide (+ 248 blank pixels after a character, if you want to). The character set has ASCII characters from $20 to $7e and the text can be added conveniently in ASCII form to the scource code. SCRLBAR6.BIN uses single scanline resolution and can have 3056 characters. Since it was a bit hard to read on a real VCS, SCRLBAR5.BIN uses double scanline resolution and can hold only 3015 characters. On a Supercharger both programs can only hold 4 characters less than on a real cart or an emulator. These BINs are sligtly optimized versions of two BINs that I posted two days ago, but that Glenn hasn't approved yet. If both post make it through at the same day, I apologogize for the double post. Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg.
