| @PTOING - Yes, i meant MUFLI instead of NUFLI of course, that was a typo that i noticed too late. The technical explanation to the making of an Asslace pic is interesting, thanks for that. I'll have a look at it when I can, to see if I can do it. |

KAL: Yeah you got a point, tho I guess you meant MUFLI and not NUFLI, since there are quite a lot of those.
Making an Asslace pic is easy enough. Just use something like Grafx2 (http://grafx2.chez.com/) with Vents Grafx2-c64tools V2.0 and set the checker to 8x8 tiles with 4 colours and one global bg colour.
Then when you are done use vicpack V0.10 to convert it to a prg, though in general vicpack will fuck up starting acme, but you can just acme the .a file yourself after doing the conversion process which spits out an bunch of bins and the .a file.
If you want to change the sprite colour you can edit the .a file. search for "d027" and you will see 2 lines
lda #0
sta $d027, x
change the #0 to any other colour than black and then acme the .a file and you are good to go (might also wanna pack the prg after that of course and rename it) |

@Ptoing. In my opinion extremely rare is, when only one or two pictures would exist. When you look at some other pic-formats, then it's the same like with the asslace format. The search-engine finds only 4 UIFLI pics, 6 NUFLI pic, 10 Super HiRes FLI, 11 UFLI and 12 Super HiRes IFLI pics. I am therefore careful, to speak of "extremely rarely" here, because otherwise one would have to say the same for all these formats.
But anyway - it's a nice picture, that's what matters in the first place, if rare or not is secondary then. And like you wrote before, i would also like to see more of these picture type and also from some of the other types i mentioned. Sadly i technically don't know, how to make a asslace picture by myself and which tools i should use for this, otherwise i would maybe try?
In any case it's very interesting to see, all these different picture types, that are possible on the C64. :) |

KAL: I would say extremely rare, hehe.
Tom-Cat: I like how it looks, the dither pattern is not that bad on my end really. using a 1084S with split luma/chroma.
For me the dither is only really noticable on the black areas, but even there it is alright, imo. But your milage might vary. |

| @PTOING - That's why i called them pretty rare, or should i have written, they are "often to find"? There exists after all 6 pics in this mode so far, therefore "totally rare" would have been exaggerated. |

| Screenshot looks lovely, but on my CRT and with the composite out on the C64 this does not look anything like the screenshot. It does not flicker terribly, only slightly, but there is a checkered pattern visible on the whole picture. Looks really terrible I am afraid. |

| rupy and anyone else who does not know how Asslace works: Watch Don't meet Crest which is where it premiered, and iirc it is described in a scroller there. |

| Interesting, this looks dithered on my composite IPS monitor. But on the GV-USB2 capture it flickers (so I know it's messing with the colors every other frame), would be nice with a technical explanation for Asslace? I will of course try this on my CRT when I get the chance... |

| Ian: No, Digger is right. I uploaded a pic with weird colours, did not blend them properly. I fixed that now. But indeed the image should still be checked on real hardware (with a CRT if possible.) |

| Digger: No need to do it, releases must be judged by running them, not just by looking at the screenshot. |

| Very neat! I'd update the screenshot to 50% opacity to make it more real. |

Copyfault:
A tool to convert stuff to Asslace is kinda pointless for pixelartists if you do things by hand (as in not wiring) because it is quite fiddly to keep track of stuff and just using 3 colours + bg per 8x8 is easier and works just fine.
Fabs:
He used Graphics Gale to pixel it and Grafx2 with Vent's scripts.
I then converted it to Asslace using
vicpack V0.10
To change the colours of the sprites you have to go and edit the .a file vicpack spits out yourself and compile it after that. |

Looks great!
Reading the Production Notes I'm even more stunned *how* good the original work shines in this asslace mode. Thanks@ptoing for motivating the artist to go this way;)
On the Asslace mode: would be fine if Algo released a tool for the extended asslace mode (with $d8xx-interlaced colours) *hinthint* |

| Amazing pic! May I ask what graphic tool you used to create the 'Asslace' mode pics? Thanks |

| Never heard of this graphics mode before, the end result doesn't look like C64 at all. Awesome pic. |

KAL: pretty rare, lol. The last Asslace release was my Them Apples one from 4 years ago. NO ONE makes Asslace stuff. Conzeit is not the 2nd person after me to make original artwork in this mode. I wish more people would use it.
And yeah, he did a great job here. Looks really cool on real hardware. |

| Very nice! I really like asslace graphics, because of the interesting colors they always have and the high resolution look. And also because they are pretty rare. |
