Just for laughs

Top stuff, thanks!

[Gryzor]

Heheheh, great art indeed. Now it's almost complete

[demoniak]

To McKlain & Tastefulmrship :
   Can I distribute the last version (With better music and cat art) ?

[McKlain]

Go go!

[tastefulmrship]

You don't need my permission; release away! ^_^

Is there a possibility to fix the CAT-art for CPC 464 rom's, too?

[tastefulmrship]

Is there a possibility to fix the CAT-art for CPC 464 rom's, too?

How does the 464 ROM differ from 6128?
I never used my DDI-1 on a 464 so I don't know, it was always my 2nd drive on the 6128.




EDIT: Oooops, it's fecked, alright!

EDIT2: I've just checked MIDLINE PROCESS & BLOC-US on 464 ROM and their CATart is also messed-up. I'll try and look into it, but it might not be fixable! (At least, not by me!)

EDIT3: The only CATart I can find that works on BASIC 1.0 is ULTIMATE FACEHUGGER MEGADEMO and that's |CPM!

EDIT4: Even ORION PRIME's superb CATart fails... can someone check if this happens on real hardware or is it another emulator glitch?

EDIT5: CATart is MODE specific as well! MODE 1 displays the CATalogue in 2 columns, MODE 2 in 4, MODE 0 in 1! This effects the order in which the files are displayed, and so potentially messing up the art entirely! I can see why this is a dying artform!

EDIT6: From Les Sucres en Morceaux website;

464 VS 6128
Il faut croire que le ciel n'est pas clément, puisque les inventeur de CPC nous ont caché des petites différences de compatibilité entre mes 464 et les 6128... en fait, assez peu de CATalogues fonctionnent également sur 464. La principale raison est que l'instruction &15 qui sert à interdire tout affichage ne parvient pas à interdire le retour chariot du curseur en fin de ligne sur le 464. Il est donc particulièrement délicat de faire un CAT en mode séquentiel dans ces conditions, puisqu'on ne sait plus à quelle instruction se vouer. Voir notamment la détection de CPC 464 / 6128 du CAT de la ClimaxG

Autre différence, mineure cette fois : si vous activez le mode transparent en cours de CAT, le système ne remettra pas le mode opaque comme le fait le 6128, au moment du retour au basic.

Anyone wants a ROM?

[tastefulmrship]

Anyone wants a ROM?

Holy fecking hell! Awesome!
Are you going to add the |CAT and |NYAN commands that redbox and McKlain suggested, too?


All we need now is the CPC+ version and I think we're there!
Way too much meme for my sandwich!

[Devilmarkus]

Holy fecking hell! Awesome!
Are you going to add the |CAT and |NYAN commands, too?

Well I'll try.... Made the rom with Softbrenner, dunno if its possible to add more commands... Perhaps |CAT and thats it... it always asks for a binary when I add a RSX command...

[Devilmarkus]

2 commands work now:
|NYANCAT or |CAT
More are not possible with Softbrenner, sorry...

[Devilmarkus]

Btw: Compared to the original demo:
Do you think its possible to produce the "nyan" sample with digidrums?
THIS would be really awesome!

[TFM]

|NYANCAT or |CAT

Add a MODE command! If you scroll the screen, it get's screwed up. Just positive feedback :-)))

[McKlain]

I think that there is no way to modify the pitch of the digidrums just using arkos (I'm not sure). To use the nyan sample we should need to use digitrakker or something like that. Remember that in normal CPCs that takes quite some cpu resources.

Better said, in arkos you can only trigger the digisamples, you can't indicate any sort of volume, lenght or anything else.

Hey McKlain: I really like your Sound!!!

[Gryzor]

Anyone wants a ROM?

YES! THANK YOU!

[McKlain]

Hey McKlain: I really like your Sound!!!

Thank you sir

Is there a possibility to fix the CAT-art for CPC 464 rom's, too?

I believe this CATart will work on CPC464 & CPC6128. However, it looks slightly different and I have had to capture the 'Ready' prompt in a WINDOW rather than just above the RUN"NYANCAT" command. This is because the CPC464 ROM continues to print the CR control code even through a VDU DISABLE command. Sorry!
(or, you can forget 464 compatibility and keep the olde version... OR, you can remove the CATart completely and just have the demo)

Other than that, it's the same NYANCAT anim to chip-music!



EDIT: I almost forgot; when the CPC+ version is done, someone should create a CARTRIDGE version of it... (is that the same as a ROM version?)

[Devilmarkus]

[tastefulmrship]

The BBC Micro now has NyanCat... not as good as yours, but uses samples.

That video was ruined by the noisy audience so badly that I could not hear any sampled sounds.

[McKlain]

To me it sounds like they sampled the full song, wich you can reduce to just 2 loops without the intro part (or maybe a few more loops if you want to reduce the size of the samples).

[SyX]

I prefer your AY version McKlain 

And after the CPC version, i like the Atari 2600 version, too

[Gryzor]

The Beeb version is awful - what the fark are these colours? Also the sampled tune sounds really awful.

The 2600 does an admirable effort but reveals how off-key it is

I noticed everyone is changing the name - Nyantari, BeebNyan... What about a 'special' name for our own version?

[Executioner]

Looks like the BBC version uses Teletext mode. Very few screen bytes to update and leaves plenty of time to play the samples. WI'm sure we could manage an 8kHz sample in the CPC version if we tried.
