DYCP and DYBP

Can someone post the sorce for these two routine? You can
explain how it works in theory all day and I still won't get the message. I need to see the routine in action. That's how I learned the various scrolling routines I have to date. I had a double dycp routine but my library was lost during my move to Va back in 1996.

Thanks,
Warnock/Style

P.S. - Seems my group is too busy to help me out.
Grrrrrrrrr.

I always thought DYSP is short for Different Y Sideborder-Sprite Position, but then i recon some d0dz use it for sprite stuff without sideborder timing :(.

btw. he means DYGP! g is very close to b on the keyboard. G is for Graphix.

No, please, explain your dirty fantasy further.

DYBP was a common US demo term years ago, Different Y Bit Position

dybp represented a different y-position every two bits wide (4 per char), while dypp was for every eight bits (8 per char). at least in the ntsc world.

dybp was more efficient and visually looked just as good in my opinion. some of those 1x1 dypp scrollers were almost impossible to read due the text being stretched out so much.

@Cruzer, I have found the Triangle demo with the (first?) DYSP abbreviation. :)

Yes, quite true about the impossible to read scrolltext.

once i coded a scroll with different y pos each 2 bits..
i had the idea to make this one as big as posible, so i made it 3 chars high so you can use a 3x3 charset... ofcourse i needs to much rastertime to make it 40 chars wide so my scroller was 20 chars wide and disappears behind some graphics (sprites).. it's some time ago i cant remember if the routine uses one or two frames to update.. but i think two...(25 fps) nice to code on a rainy sunday midday...

Yeps, 'Photon DYSP' introduced the term but it didn't actually do what it said it did. The first real DYSP was this demo:

Real D.Y.S.P./Triton

actually, The Larch 3 has a pretty nice sized 1x1 side border dypp (the demo refers to it as a dypp) which is controllable with the joystick. considering the speed it runs at, i always assumed the chars were pre plotted at every unique position in the sin wave. imo, this is one the best technical demos ever being it was released in 1989.
