Release id #72550 : Edge of Disgrace
So looking at the .d64 sizes it looks like they are normal 35-track disks, so the rumors of 40-tracks were unfounded? |

Sorry for what may be a noob question, but how do you combine multispeed music with fullscreen cycle-exact effects? Doesn't the music routine have to be called several times in one frame? |

Typically you buffer the sid writes then you write them to the SID-registers in a controlled manner within your timed cycle-based effects. F.e. the first half of The Wild Bunch uses a 4x-tune. The player is run four times in a row outside the effect area pushing all SID-writes to the stack. Then in the raster code they're pulled back and stored into their appropriate SID-registers. Care has to be taken so that you don't write to the SID-registers in the wrong order aswell. Hope this answers your question. |

Well.. The writes to the SID itself can be made with non varying number of cycles. Haven't checked the exact approach(es) here, but it is certainly not logically impossible or anything like that, although of course requiring additional effort. :) |

Uhm ... Did I miss anything? Dane's soundtrack is single speed, innit? |

Ofcourse, but combined with a tight raster fx you're bound to write to $d011/16/18 or whateva you do before the music routine is finished. |

It is indeed, but I thought I could answer his question anyways. A bit out of topic ofcourse but still. :) |

Thanks for the explanation, it's quite clear now. And yep, I thought EoD had multispeed sound so I thougth this was on-topic. Oops :) |
