I had been thinking 1LK. Now I see why it's done that way.
BTW, how does VDELPx work? From what I understood from the manual it
doesn't give you players with the resolution of a 1LK but you can move
them 1 scanline at a time. Is that right?
I originally thought it would let you load the graphics registers and
just not display them until the next scanline. I quickly found out that
wasn't true unless I did something wrong.
If VDELPx could give me single line graphic resolution it would really
save me some headaches with kernel timing. That way I wouldn't be
restricted to HBLANK for loading player graphics and colors.
The 6-digit display is a 1LK, right? Is that only possible because they
are loading GRPx twice during a scanline?
Take care,
Dennis
