Games / WIP Transversion
Last post by Typhon - Yesterday at 22:50
Evening all,
 
Some screenshots of a new project: Transversion: a port to the CPC of the 1983 Solar-Fox/Gridrunner game originally for the Speccy. I'm using the lovely CPCTelera library, and I hope to have it completed in a few weeks, and I'll be including a few of the graphical tweaks from the awesome versions by Denis Grachev, (Sector and Sector:Invasion) which were released a few years ago, also for the Spectrum. Will work on any CPC, and full source code will be available. Stay tuned to this thread for more details!

Quote from: krusty_benediction on Yesterday at 22:13This is an interesting project, but probably useless if the converter is too academic with the video signal.
Most demos would not be rendered properly when hsync/vsync timings are not correct (on purpose or by programming mistake).
CTM totally accepts that, but not oscc, which make it useless. It would be sad your product suffers of the same issue

I am sure I am never going to match what exactly CTM can display or even get close to it or even to any CRT monitor. My goal is to have something close to what you can get from a scandoubler, but with the total cost of a couple dollars, much smaller size, but working only with Amstrad and skip support for all the features that other scandoublers have. I would not support interlace, other resolutions and timings than amstrad one, or no other palettes. And even if it will be useless I am doing it first of all to learn stuff, so for me it is a win-win situation :)

Thanks a lot. You're so right. My CPC is a german 6128 ... not plus :) I wasn't aware that the 6128 and the 6128 plus have a different pinlayout 🙈 But what is the exact layout? Pinning translation between different connectors (CPC-PL-9, Centronics 36pin, Floppy connector 34pin) ? ? ?
