UvB> So yes, functions to manipulate the palette are definitely needed. wait.... i think there are TWO different things then (i thought of the other all the time actually :D) that should be considered.... a) there are MAXPALCOL colors in a palette which can be choosed from a total of MAXCOL colors. (4 of 16 colors for c64-multicolor or 2 of 16 colors for c64 hires) b) (this only applies for systems that dont have fixed COLORS) there is a color-palette of MAXPALCOL colors and each color can be specified by whatever parameters (R-G-B values possibly) .... the gameboy color works that way (uhm-totally offtopic eh? ,=)) .... and i think i have seen this somewhere on atari(???) aswell. -- Best regards, groepaz mailto:groepaz_at_gmx.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo_at_musoftware.de with the string "unsubscribe cc65" in the body(!) of the mail.
