charset

Post by Aturnwald »

Hello to all,

I found a program with 8K that can display 40 chars at a line, and after that you can load a game that is actually for the PET.
So, my question is, can I use that sort of screen for my VIC-20, and can I redefine the charset ? Also I'd like to use 32 K of memory.
All that I know is, when memory is over 3 K different screen numbers and a few other changes would made, but nothing more, is that correct ?

I mean I'd like to use the 40 lines for a Game, and the alphabet and a few chars I want to redefine, for e.g. a man, a bomb ect.
Or isn't that possible at all?

cheerio Toni
.....42, what else ???
