Anime tion **** COMMODORE 64 BASIC V2 **** 64K RAM SYSTEM 38911 BASIC BYTES FREE READY. LOAD"ANIME-TION /TMP",8,1: SEARCHING FOR ANIME-TION /TMP LOADING READY. RUN - HUM, 26 CHARLINES? YES, YOU ARE RIGHT! FEEL WELCOME TO OUR NEW DEMO WITH A VERY STRANGE OLDSKOOL EFFECT, WHICH WAS NEARLY FORGOTTEN (FOR GOOD REASON). IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ITS STORY, PRESS SPACE NOW, OTHERWISE THE DEMO WILL CONTINUE AS PLANNED. - - OKAY, HERE IS THE DETAILED EXPLANATION OF A VIC-BUG, WHICH IS QUITE DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER ONES. LET'S GET CONCRETE: YOU MIGHT KNOW THAT A READ-MODIFY-WRITE INSTRUCTION OF THE 6510 HAS TWO WRITE CYCLES. IN THE FIRST ONE THE ORIGINAL DATA IS WRITTEN AGAIN, ONLY IN THE SECOND ONE THE UPDATED DATA IS STORED. IF YOU NOW USE SUCH AN INSTRUCTION AT THE BEGINNING OF THE FIRST BORDER-LINE, SO THAT WITHIN THE FIRST WRITTEN CYCLE THE BORDER IS ACTIVE, BUT WITHIN THE SECOND IT IS DISABLED AND(!) THERE IS A BADLINE CONDITION, THE VIC GETS TOTALLY CONFUSED AND DISPLAYS A 26TH CHARLINE. AS THE INTERNAL SCREEN-RAM-COUNTER IS JUST 10 BITS WIDE, THE DATA FOR THIS LINE WRAPS FROM $03E8 TO $000F. HOWEVER, THERE IS A DRAWBACK. I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING INSIDE THE VIC, BUT IT'S A FACT THAT THE CHIP GETS UNUSUALLY HOT WHILE USING THIS EFFECT. BUT DON'T WORRY, I INCLUDED A CHECK WHICH WILL PREVENT YOUR HARDWARE FROM DAMAGE. HOW DOES THIS WORK? EASY, HIGHER TEMPERATURE RESULTS FROM HIGHER CURRENT FLOATING THROUGH THE VIC. NOW YOU KNOW, THAT THE FOUR UPPER BITS OF THE COLOR REGISTERS ARE RANDOM. THIS IS TRUE, BUT THEY ALSO DEPEND ON THE AMOUNT OF ELECTRCITY INSIDE THE CHIP. MORE POWER MEANS, IT IS MORE LIKELY THAT A BIT EQUALS 1. SO, IF THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT $D02X-REGISTERS HAVING BITS 4-7 SET, THEN YOU KNOW IT'S TIME TO DEACTIVATE YOUR COMPUTER. AS MENTIONED, SUCH A CHECK IS INCLUDED IN THIS PART. THAT MEANS, DON'T PANIC :) OKAY, THIS WAS A LOT OF TEXT, SO I'LL TAKE A BREAK NOW. CYA! -

Anime tionMEGANOTER V4.0 BY OLLIE OF PRIDE PRESS SPACE TO READ OR ANY KEY TO EDIT! (7_ - C[R[E[S[H - - - RELEASED AT FLAG-PARTY 2000 IN BUDAPEST, HUNGARY YIHA, TEMPEST IS BACK WITH A SMALL PRODUCTION FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT. THIS DEMO DOES NOT CONTAIN HARDCORE 3D-EFFECTS OR ANY WORLD-RECORDS. JUST SOME APPRECIATION OF THE CUTE ANIME- AND ROCKING C64-OLDSKOOL STYLE. NOW SOME WORDS ABOUT THE EFFECTS: - - NOTHING SPECIAL TO MENTION, EXCEPT THAT DOC BACARDI/THE DREAMS HELPED ME WITH SOME CODING, THANKS PAL! AND DESPITE THEDEMO NAME, EXPLOSIONS ARE CALCULATED :) - - GREAT GFX DONE BY JAILBIRD. WELL, JUST ENJOY THIS PART ;) - - I OFTEN ASKED MYSELF IF IT IS POSSIBLE TO CONVERT COOL ANSI-PICTURES TO THE C64. I FOUND A WAY, YOU'RE THE JUDGE. BY THE WAY, WITH SHIFT-LOCK YOU CAN ACTIVATE SOME KIND OF INTERLACE MODE. - - A SCROLLER JUST MADE OF SPLITS. BEST VIEWED ON AN OLD VIC (THIS LIGHT GREY PIXEL SUCKS!). - - CUUUUUUUUTE :) ORIGINAL AUTODESK-ANIMATION FOUND ON THENET. STRANGE FORMAT, OVER 110KB IN SIZE!CONVERTED TO C64 BY ME USING NEOPAINT, KONV1 (DOS) AND COLOR-X (C64). IT TOOK ME 2 HOURS FOR EVERY OF THE 10 KOALA PICTURES. BUT I THINK THE RESULT IS WORTH THE PRICE! USE SHIFT-LOCK TO USE THE 2-MHZ-MODE ON A C128. OH, WELL I DON'T WANT TO WRITE TOO MUCH MORE AND JOIN THE PARTY INSTEAD :) I JUST HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT, CAUSE THAT IS THE MAIN PURPOSE OF IT. AT LEAST I ENJOYED MAKING THIS ONEFILER. CYA, NINJA IS OFF... PS: SPECIAL THANX FOR LETTING ME FIX THEDEMO AT THE PARTYPLACE MUST GO TO POISONAND SOCI/SINGULAR AND EDHELLON/RESOURCE. PPS: JB, REMEMBER: EVEN AN ARMY WON'T STOP US! ;) -
