• 40k Amiga OCS/ECS Hello World, again... by Defekt
• Quote:

  Each line is 4 dots that you then do a normal fill with the blitter. Or is the "up to 4 pixels" relevant - I'm thinking of a capital E that would be 2 dots in the center.

  
  
  Yes, normal fill with the blitter, but as you said quite a lot of letters only need 2 dots per line, "L" for instance, but "e" will need 4 dots at the top where the loop part of the letter is. When rendering the line I used -1 to denote that no more points needed, but to achieve the scrolling every line occupies 4 bytes regardless.

  Nice little intro and good to see you're back rich!

  
  
  Hey dude! Are you making music still? Mods? I still remember how to write "have fun" in Finnish :-D

• Amazing, the palette ordering stuff looks *super* useful, always a pain trying to force the palette in Photoshop, and now not having to bother with nconvert and GFXMaster is going to be a godsend. Thanks for this tool!

• Niiiice, I watch some demos and just think I can't actually code for shit, still I enjoy it which is all that matters :-D
  
  in FS-UAE on mac I see what appears to be an uninitialised bitplane pointer during the transitions, but otherwise a cracking demo. Good job.

  I can't read it but want details on how it works :D :D

  
  Essentially a list of up to 4 pixels to draw per line, the list is "scrolled" upwards and fed with the next line from current character at the bottom (I generated the font pixel list with Python), then everything filled with blitter. The twisty/sine shiz is handled with lookup tables (also generated with Python) that remap the pixel positions in the list to what drawn on screen. :)

• Nice, thanks for including our reintroduction intro. I noticed it won't work in FS-UAE with the AROS roms, perhaps a problem with Shrinkler, or maybe my lame code :) If anyone has a clue please let me know, because I don't :D

• Which one was that motion? I have of course all prods with which I had some involvement in storage, but I have doubts about how well 25-30 year old floppies will work 😂 So trying to find them by other means.
