Instructions
Just load, lean back and enjoy. A version with a menu is included: you can
choose between the PAL and NTSC version. The NTSC version has 20% faster music
and is only a rough port with number of lines and colors adjusted.
The menu runs on 60Hz with coloring that works with both PAL and NTSC. Also
note that you can use the color / b/w switch to go back to the monochrome
version of the effect, the demo starts with.
The online version does not feature the menu, but only different versions
for PAL and NTSC.
Note: This demo is not SuperCharger compatible, since the SuperCharger does
not support CommaVid RAM. A separate SuperCharger version is included inside
the archive. This version will break the 512 bytes limit, though: the PAL
version is about 554 bytes, not counting the padding and tape header.
This package includes:
- menu version for both PAL and NTSC (2k)
- 512 bytes PAL version (will most probably not run without any padding)
- 512 bytes NTSC version (will most probably not run without any padding)
- 2048 bytes PAL version (padded for running in Stella, Harmony and Uno Cart 2600)
- 2048 bytes NTSC version (padded for running in Stella, Harmony and Uno Cart 2600)
- 8448 bytes PAL version (different setup code for running in SuperCharger hardware)
- 8448 bytes NTSC version (different setup code for running in SuperCharger hardware)
- 8448 bytes PAL version (as mp3 for uploading to original SuperCharger hardware)
- 8448 bytes NTSC version (as mp3 for uploading to original SuperCharger hardware)
