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? |

I guess so then.
Okay, it is blasphemy but I watched it for just this once in Vice to keep an eye on the disk-track-o-meter :)
It stayed in the 35 track limit.

Wohoo! That means I'll be able to transfer it with my MMC64.
Only 7 hours and 42 minutes until I go home and watch it... :/ |

Two finished effects were scrapped due to lack of space on the disk. Maybe they'll show up in the future...
So that means these effects wouldn't be scrapped if they used 40-tracks disks? ;-)

I think it's just Dane's way saying "find the hidden parts"! ;-) |

Well, that would be very good news indeed as I have no way of transferring a 40 track disk (I own a XE cable, but threw away the old pc I used it with a while ago). Gonna try right away tonight so I can really see the demo the way it was meant to: on the old breadbox, not in an emu :) |

Can someone elaborate on the HCB gfx mode? What possibilities and advantages does it have? |

Checked it, worked like a charm. No need for 40 tracks copy tricks ;) |

I noticed that in the Terminator Girl part, while the pic is scrolling up, the "Edge Of Disgrace" logo shows a dotted vertical line, also scrolling upward.
This behaviour can be seen on a real C64 machine, not in the emulator VICE.
I think I have seen a similar thing in Tsunami/BD.
Why is that? |

its the grey dot bug in the new Vic-II(85xx). when you write to a color register while the Vic is using it a gray dot is drawn. its often smaller than a pixel and fades away after awhile(or is not displayed atall).
the c64c also displays a glitch in the dancefloor part. contrary to the grey dot its a stable effect(and emulated in Hoxs). |
