Big Fucking Scroller 2000 by The Sos [web] & Altair
Big Fucking Scroller 2000 by sos It's already 4:20 am and I need to sleep why am I even writing this! Anyways, this is the biggest C64 scroller, unless someone makes on that can serve teletext! The scroller is rendered by disabling graphics and changing border color in perfect sync with raster. The resulting graphics is 8x8 giant fucking pixels read from zeropage and you can put whatever you want there, but you can't really fit much stuff before runnign out of rasterlines. The display routine is no-loop LDA XX/STA XXXX to draw as fast as possible and reduce pixel size. There are actually 3 drawing routines like that for smooth scrolling, they take around 40kb in total but compress super well, so 50kb crunched to 6kb easy peasy! Ok time to bed! There's source but it's ugly, I don't care. Respect for friendos: ninja, altair, dante, xxx, aceman, melman, voyager, reg, ponk, dok, bonzaj, argasek, fiesserwolf, feliday and everyone I don't know the secret scene names of! <3 See ya on the big screen!
