Hi Kevin, > Yeah, I read through both of those once but it appears that I may need > to do so again... Don't get discouraged. We were all newbies at one time and some of us (like me) are still learning :-) You might also want to look at the archives for source samples. This helped me out a lot. The archives are full of information. I hope they get updated soon. > And I guess 37 scanlines is probably plenty of time for a pretty > simple game like the one I've got in mind, i just wanted to see how > the "pros" did it. I wouldn't call your game idea simple. From the description I read it seems you'll be doing some variable flicker and positioning the 2 sprites in the kernel (if you show the score too). As for VSYNC time I generally leave it alone. Eckhard reported weird behavior if certain things were done during VSYNC. It's sad as it wastes ~228 cycles :-( Then again the *new* way of doing VSYNC is a nice ROM saver so it could be a trade off. Take care, Dennis
