Oh! That means even though the underlying mode uses 8x16 attribute cells, one can have dynamic updates of the colour RAM, even if those updates are a comparatively scarce resource. Nice! Yes, exactly! Quite expensive to do each write but it’s possible to have 8*1 color cells in local areas of the i...

It's constructed from two images, a background color image and a foreground color image. Using those two, flexible assembler code is generated to set cycle exact background, border, auxillary and character colors in order to achieve the same result on the VIC20. So any of the available colors can be...

There’s no music on NTSC machines due to lack of CPU cycles.

The Sarge/Fairlight released the VIC20 image "Jalapeno" at Fjälldata 2023 and it came in 2nd place! The image requires 16 kB expansion.

It might be easier to flash by changing the colors of the characters instead.

That setting will give a lot of false positives in a large program. This needs to be applied only in the places where it is useful. Maybe there’s a way to turn it on and off during assembly? I wrote a macro to give me that warning if a block of code crosses a boundary instead.

What are the competition categories and are remote entries accepted?

It can hardly get more simple than that. We have a winner!

It was a long time ago I programmed BASIC V2 so take this with a grain of salt. And I didn’t test this so I may have made an mistake. The comparison results in either -1 or 0 so this can be used mathematically to set values. It can be neat sometimes but is probably not the most efficient solution. V...

From a quick peek into the *.d64 I'd assume the text body is compressed and you use some IFFL-like technique for quick seek into the files? The proportional font rendering engine is also quite nice. Any chance you show it here in the Programming section for discussion? Similar to IFFL, I'm having c...

Thanks a lot!

Yesterday this was released to the public. Not that useful if you aren't speaking Swedish though.

Thank you! I’m glad to hear that!

Nice!

Does different kinds of food make a difference or is it just visual?

Haha! It takes a while to get used to the delayed flight response.
