Howto flickerfree and moving rasterbar ?
<Post edited by moderator on 20/10-2009 01:24>
Making a perfect stable, flickerfree and moving rasterbar is harder than I thought.
Why and which changes are needed to the code below to fulfill my dream about the flickerfree rasterbar?
The code is based on http://www.ffd2.com/fridge/vic/stableraster.txt.
Acme code ready to compile:

rambones: thats not a stable raster routine.... it can be made flickerfree (or well, flickering in the border) though with proper delay values though, admitted :)

Groepaz: most 80s demos do this, and it works well :D |

Zzz. Stable, flickerfree moving rasterbars was *published* in 198x and 1000 demos have *published* it since then. ..and they are all on the internet with the code just there for you to read, if you just use some other tool than Notepad. |

I know they have been out there since the eighties but I´m trying to do some coding in 2009. Since we are here now in 2009 I would like to find the code using gogle or codebase64 or the CSDb forum.
So since you know the code and where to find it, could you please publish some stable, flickerfree moving rasterbar code here in ASCII.
Please, be helpful ! |

...which makes me notice that Jackasser still haven't finished his codebase articles on stable timing. :)

If the help is not enough I suggest you buy a flickerfixer. ;) |

Don't move the raster-IRQ, move the colors inside the color table.

if people would at least study the code and try to learn from, then they would understand what they're doing and could fix this by themelves...
just copy/paste code and using it without understanding is so lame...hehe *SCNR* (c;
and I also think people here were helpful, so do you homework now... :D |
