 Re: SPECM GFX mode - concept phase

I'll look closer to this mode because , actually was thinking of ECM for some time now.
The inspiration came from Atari guys who use 5 color mode (128 chars) to do actually all they modern nice gfx. What they do is the change char generator every xx lines and fill whole screen with 4-5 chartist to do the gfx. then they can change colors every line (they have 128 colors in this mode).
So basically what they do to achieve these nice looking pictures is charset mode and changing the char generator every few lines.
When I discovered that I automatically thought about how we could use it on Commodores and I think there's still space for this kind of experiments.

Your's idea is one of the possible approaches which also could do nice results.
will invetigate
