Next game from Cargosoft...

[alex76gr]

Oh yes.
So, they are using the Fugitif technique or they are creating something from the scratch?

[TotO]

What I have seen during the ReSeT preview (5mn) is new.
Look to be more than 4 colours (8? 16?)  everywhere on the screen in MODE 1 without visible flickering.
Graphics are sharp and colorful, close to a 16bit game.

Agent T, well known as SuperSylvestre, doesn't want to show us this year.
Of course, i'll buy a box version...

[Gryzor]

I think it's a moot point by now, but I'd really like a physical release, please


Can't wait to learn more!

[MaV]

Box, definitively!

[Neil79]

Mahjong Solitaire


blah!

So something like this mode 5 or 6 something thing. Cards are nicely shaped for a colorsplit vertical and horizontal.

Would someone mind posting  a list of the Modes other than the familiar ones 0,1 &2. And just give us laymen an idea of what each mode does ? Or is somewhere elsewhere that explains?

Aside of MODE 0-3 anything else is made by software, so everybody can kind of define what they want.

[Puresox]

right?! So not specific mode as such , but the ability to make combinations within certain parameters I suppose?

[TFM]

They had that special GFX maker for the PC, that one switches a couple of colors every line. That way you can have a MODE 1 GFX with all 27 colors. Dunno who much colors it switches for each scanline. 2 should be doable without a problem. All that stuff is somewhere out there, dunno where though.

[Cpcmaniaco]

1 phisical game for me too, please.

[kawickboy]

Of course physical release please.

[Optimus]

Yeah, because in http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/Mode_4_of_CPCs_(two_bitplanes_emulation) someone called Mode 4 the "bitplane trick" where your palette is something like 0123444455556666 in Mode 0 and helps with not need to mask sprites, but this article also says "also called Mode 3" but Mode 3 is also this unofficial fail of a mode on CPC, Mode 0 with 4 colors and still 16k vram. It's like on the C64 when they have tons of modes, FLI, XFLI MuFLI and whatever, this are all either interlace or change palette/mix resolution per line, more times than line, etc. It amuses me when someone announces that he invented a new mode, because it might sound to someone outside retrocoding that OMG, there was a real hidden resolution/color mode INSIDE the graphics chips, hidden, ready to be discovered, which is not the case

[Targhan]

@Optimus : Well, who knows for sure??

[TotO]

Any news? 

[TFM]

Screenshot?

[GFXOR]

No screenshot yet, but a preview will be shown at the ReSeT. People will be able to play with it.

[Gryzor]

Oh! So much time passed already?

[Skunkfish]

Any news on this from ReSeT?

[PulkoMandy]

Yes. But if you wanted to see it, you should have been there 

[Rhino]

I wonder if the new video mode in this game is one of the supported by Perfect Pix

[TotO]

No, it isn't.

[Targhan]

Sorry for the delay. Please wait... just a little bit more . But NOT much, fortunately .

[Targhan]

... Something is going to happen on Monday... Just sayin' .
