Cool!
BUT, after looking at your source (had to use DiStella, which has some problems with illegal opcodes), I bet you can't do this with single-height AND independent color scrolling... :)
I can't, because I only can get 16 free cycles to do this (using my VDELP0/1 version, which is faster). But i need three register (COLUBK, COLUP0/1) writes (= 9 cycles) and two table reads (10 cycles, if you want color cycling, like in Thrust).
With static, but free chooseable, colors, you'll need 6 read cyles (tya, eor# ..., eor#, or lda table,y ..., eor#). But that's not what I'm asking for, at least one of the colors should be animated.
Well, if you have enough RAM, then there's a good chance you might... But that would be a demo only.
Have fun!
Thomas
