Atari STe palette vs. Amiga OCS/ECS palette
category: general [glöplog]
Amiga palette has lots of bright AND dark colours.
Atari STe palette has all the same colours but the bits are in a silly ass-backwards order for backward compatibilititity.
JUST SO YOU KNOW.

i didn't say there was anything wrong with the STe. I have one and I love it.
i nkow this, and the ste pallete has weird order, maybe some intel guy went to work at atari for a while ;)
anyway, i've never looked into the amiga OCS palette.. so i can't judge ;)

The weired palette order is a reason to even more love the STE - anyone can have a straight palette order...
We may have weird palette on our STEs but we can use movep.l for c2p :P
(of course that's the only thing the interleaved bitplanes on the st/e are good for ;)
The STe palette has an easy explanation; keep ST compatibility both ways and extend at once.
ggn: that and clearing 32px at once with a move.l that overlaps the 4th and 1st bpl.
