$d011 trickery – duplicated text lines

Does any one know the $d011 trick to repeat the first char row? I am trying to cancel badlines on the 8th line of each charline (between cycles 54-57) but it doesn't work. The first line gets duplicated but only twice.

It's related to the char and color buffer in the VIC, not VCBASE. There was a race between writing (vmli) and reading this out (dmli) in an apparently rare case.
But can this be exploited for demo purposes? :)


Probably not, but never say never.

I'm not even sure these counters are separate counters in reality.
It was a long time since I wrote that piece of code, but I think part of the choice was due to trying to separate the cpu clock domain code from the dot clock domain code more cleanly.

I've committed a fix for the bug 1627 issue in r41978 (based on the patch PiCiJi supplied).

This should really be emulated in the way described here: bug 218, but not today. :)

The committed fix passes the regression suite (thanks gpz!) but please test the current trunk with your "worst" VIC-II abuse!

Builds are here: https://github.com/VICE-Team/svn-mirror/releases

anybody else want to pull some wise-guy cracks? :)

if not, it would be very helpful to get some feedback on if it's messing up your favourite effects.

back to topic, repeating all 8 lines only possible by writing atleast once to d011 on the visible screen ? many here writes cycles 54-58, cycle 58 start of the border?

Hmm.. that's ok, but there is so much stuff posted in here so i don't know what the question is anymore :D.

I could assume it's about open sideborder combined with this effect.. and in that case the answer is no.
