Well, there's a lot more code executing in-game, and obviously different stuff is put on the screen. The overall structure of the program is largely the same, like the way VBLANK and the timers are used. Keep in mind it's possible to get the rolling to stop on the title screen by taking all the code out of overscan, except for the timers and such. I was never able to find any single piece of code that when put back, caused the rolling to start again (basically anything did it). So what I'm thinking is that the 9-byte VERTICAL_SYNC is /almost/ good enough, but may or may not work depending on some obscure (but valid) hardware state. Does anyone know if similar things happen if you sync for less than 3 lines? Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://stella.biglist.com
