On the 21st December “Mr. Spiv” updated his page with following:

I put two technical demos online showing how HBLANK emulation can be used… effects are lame and done in hurry.. but I’m a lazy man.

The description:
hblank.fxe is a simple example of HBLANK interrupt and DMA triggering emulation. The picture has 256 colors and the color bars on background are done changing the background color (LUT color 0) on every raster line. Less than 4KB of data needs to be moved per frame refresh in order to make all these effects.. so very CPU & BUS friendly. Demos run at 66MHz and almost 60fps…
hblank2.fxe does basically the same but with 16bits picture and two layers.

Thanks to Mr. Spiv himself for the news.

Hi everyone…

I’ll be away from the 27th December up to the 5th January. I’m hardly reachable in that time and may not post news nor reply on any e-mail I get.

From this Friday to Sunday I’ll be in Mannheim/Germany on the “TUM” demoparty. More Information could be found here:http://www.tum-home.de/.

PDRoms will get a News-Archive very soon. Pancid is allready working on it.

I’m seriously thinking about getting a FTP server for PDRoms. This should be seen as additional service. You will be able to get all the homebrewn stuff avaliable here without clicking through all pages. We already had a discussion in #pdroms EFNET but I want to get a few more opinions. Please feel free to e-mail me.

I think that’s it so far, have a nice day all…
