@Trident : what a great talk, also all the other topics! I've decided to write up how we did it and to give some more insight into how it works.
At the admins : can I add that writeup and some sourcecode that was used to make the FLI code to this release_id? Or should that be a separate release? My guess is that it belongs here. |

| @Rastah Bar : the sprites are multiplexed in the upper border, before the FLI starts |

| @Monte, yes he did. Like I mention in the scroll text :-). But that was not a full sprite layer, but multiplexed sprites with empty space between them and the same sprite data repeated. It turns out to be really hard if you want unique sprite data for each line. |

| @MonteCarlos: Yes, but with very limited sprites graphics. Just compare, this is a whole picture (166 pixels high).. "This record is for eternity!" it said.. Nope :D |

| Seeing that illegal opcode galore (used them all so far, but for other purposes :-D) on the 6 sprites over FLI is tasty, very cool that this got extended! And love what the scroller says there :-D |

| Deekay, it should be a normal 166 lines high FLI of 37 chars wide. This is ofcourse not a 'graphic mode' show, but a proof of concept of an uncompromised 6 sprite layer over the FLI area. I think WVL choose this way, to avoid having to come up with a gfx editor. :) Btw, it was a very long time ago, but I remember it was my suggestion to EHC to add the MAX abbreviation to the UFLI name, when he was working on it. Great to see a result finally released, forum talk is cheap. |

Imho testing with current VICE trunk should be the standard procedure before calling something "EMU break0r" ;-)
Anyway: Awesome work on that sprite routine! *thumbsup* |

VICE 3.1 is probably too old.
For the record, the demo runs correctly for me in:
VICE 3.2 (x64 and x64sc) (some flicker on the top 2 lines at the ghosts part)
Hoxs 1.1.1.2
Denise 2.1
Incredible to say, Vice 3.7.1 (old rev r43772) even using --default settings, bugs on the ghosts part, screen is just a garbled mess, and it's printing this on the log screen:
VIC-II: VSP Bug: Line: 6/70 Cycle: 20 Channel: 7
Retrying with r44798
https://github.com/VICE-Team/svn-mirror/releases/download/r4479..
NOW it works also here |

| The problem I see with "UFLI max" is that for UFLI, you need to *underlay* the sprites in a hires bitmap - and with hires FLI you'd need one extra sprite to cover the FLI bug! ;-) So either it's light grey in the first 3 chars and six sprites or 5 sprites only.. Also, I'd like to know if the 3 chars on the right are actually full FLI, too, the picture is empty there!... |

| This is the annoying part Deekay.. I only needed Y for one write every 8 lines, but I couldn't find a solution that didn't need Y so I could free up that register for the y coordinate for the multiplexer. |
