- 32k KC-85 Deep Vision Project by Moods Plateau [web]
- Some background information about this production may be of interest...
First, there were several novel techniques, developed in the meantime (since Revision 2018) by moods plateau, stuffed into this one:
- Animation with nearly no need of CPU (parallax scrolling in main screen)
- Replay of audio samples (logo, title and main screen)
- 1st time application of KC 85/4’s HRG (high resolution graphics) mode especially here for Anaglyph 3D graphics (decrunch, logo and title screen)
For the first effect (1) the color blinking feature of the system hardware and two screen buffers were used.
The quality of sample based audio replay (2) will be further improved. :o)
In this demo the actual timer for triggering the interrupt for replay could not be used, because of the simultaneous combination with effect (1). So one of the oscillators was utilized that is regularly used for sound output. The then normally resulting noise was prettily eliminated by noise canceling with the help of the second audio channel. ;)
HRG mode (3) is a graphic mode of the KC 85/4 computer with higher color resolution. It makes it possible to define an individual color for each single pixel out of a palette of 4 colors. Luckily (at least just for our use case here) the contained colors are black, red, cyan and white as straightly made for displaying red/cyan color-coded Anaglyph 3D graphics. Furthermore, the combinations of the bits in both bitplanes involved do result automatically in the proper color indices of the (fixed) palette and are therefore displayed already in the right color for stereoscopic view when containing the left and right image respectively.
Nonetheless, I’ve learned some more special facts about Anaglyph 3D at the party. Thank you, _Ook, for the valuable hints given!
@Saga Musix: Sorry, if the presentation on the big screen was not optimal for you. (Besides the colors, I’ve learned, also the size matters here a lot.) :-D You could try some screenshots available at demo zoo. They’re directly taken from MESS KC 85/4 emulation which was my reference so far. B-) - Animation with nearly no need of CPU (parallax scrolling in main screen)

- It is already used in a more Serious! 8 bit production by Moods Plateau, shown at this year's Revision. ;)))
Thanx a lot for this! It saved my ass by crunching the final version of the soundtrack so heavily that the entire demo did fit into the available memory again. :o) - rulezadded on the 2018-05-26 22:22:14

- I've been pleased that sb. wrote a little demo during my brief absence. Using the blink effect for the circles turned out to be rather spectacular. :) Visitors passing by were curious about how it was done.
