On z26 (decimal values in brackets):
With single WSYNC method:
TIM1T = $45 (76) gives INTIM = $15 (21)
TIM1T = $54 (86) gives INTIM = $1f (31)
With VBLANK:
TIM1T = $45 (76) gives INTIM = $2e (46)
TIM1T = $54 (86) gives INTIM = $38 (56)
The values for TIM1T I've experimented with are just basically random
(76 and 86). With the VBLANK the timer likely wraps, but I think
that's of minor relevance at this stage...
On the real hardware I don't have the exact numbers at the moment, but
I use the seed value to set the background (the power of laziness) and
it comes up in the same color each time!
If helpful, I can clean up a bit the currently very messy source and post it!
Thanks and ciao,
Fabrizio.-
