Ah, cool stuff !
I shuddered slightly remembering the shift tables in Beeb Lunar Jetman..... but that is Mode4 (and about 2K of tables IIRC !), but then thought - Mode5 - shouldn't be too bad !

I think that would work really well. I don't mind Mode4 Elk games! 😎

Given the extra memory, would it ever be possible to do a MODE4/5 split like the BBC Micro, or is there a hardware limitation?

The problem of not being able to access the Modulator parameters on page 9 of Mode4 when SequencerMode is selected was solved by placing the corresponding parameters on page 5 of Mode4 in parallel.

The introduction of mode4 was a big mistake and should never have been passed. That's why many servers are now blocking any content from servers who made the switch to mode4.

Nice, it was about time I updated the Mode4 SmallFont graphics for these silly Atari 8-bit graphics experiment.
Special thanks to @gors.bsky.social for creating the much better 4x8 Font based on my original attempt!

I used some dummy graphics for the "Void" so it would be easier to tell what is and isn't in-bounds.
I wanna try to combine this with some Mode4 Soft Scrolling to add a nice Parallax effect on top of it later :3

Ugh, I hate this kind of stuff. I split my time between here and Mastodon and this is exactly the kind of stuff that leads users to think decentralization is too complicated.
The flag you should use is -mode4, NOT mode3 (since February). That way you don’t need to pass -f to override the compa

No, I would like to but don't quite see how. But the demo mode and the fireworks display could run without the MODE4 stats/dashboard at the top. And then I could use it for hidden unpacked code/data. Alternatively: move the (exomized) title screen out of the main binary into a disposable loader

The Arcade Room is basically a game itself, taking considerable space. I am running low on RAM and pondering putting separate 'modules' (e.g. demo mode, celebratory fireworks display) up there in the hidden MODE4 part of the screen (after unpacking it)

Cheers Dean! I've been looking at it for too long and feel it's ok-ish for a MODE1 version. I just remembered I don't actually have pixel-perfect MODE4 sprite plotters in this game (and running out of RAM again) 🤦 This'll have to do for now 😎

Pyjamarama (WIP). That's the Arcade Room (mini game) done! However, I may just rewrite this particular room in MODE4. That might give me a fighting chance for more speed and flicker-free sprites. At the moment the poor Elk is drawing twice the amount of sprite data as the Speccy 😫

The MODE4/MODE1 mix combined with extra space/speed of SWRAM is great so far! (same with Citadel 2 in MODE5/MODE2; must use this more often)

As usual I find myself writing custom sprite plotting routines again! Sprites are stored in MODE4 format but drawn in MODE1. Preshifting is probably too much with so many sprites 🤔
