I've watched "Pimp My Commodore", the C64 winner demo, and of course it's a fantastic onefiler, with charplasma on the sideborders, gigantic bobvectors and so on.
About the Kefrens they've shown up: why nobody did, even on plus/4, a Kefrens+$FF07 like that? I've never afforded to code a Kefrens part, this means I dunno how much rastertime it steals. Of course, the $FF07 sinus must read the table at the start of every single scanline, and that's a fast and easy code in order to do it unregarding badlines, no prob. Hence, the slice of code that generates the bars should easily fit in the rest of the running frame...or did they also take advantage from the residual rastertime at every scanline?
Side note: wow, we don't have a definition for Kefrens bars in the encyclopedia! :/ Please someone should fill the void! |
