$39FF instead of $3FFF as alternative bit-pattern for open border
I thought it's ALWAYS the last byte of the VIC-bank, that is displayed in the open border area (upper and lower).
But with "Extended Backgroundcolor Mode" on, the value of $39FF (of the VIC-Bank) is shown instead.
A usecase might be, that you can use all spritepointer together with the highest videoram - with "Extended Backgroundcolor Mode" off, the pointer of sprite 7 would be displayed as garbage in the border. Of course, there are solutions to avoid this, but maybe someone else find this usefull. |
