Hi all honest people!
Zdorovkaetsya Donetsk group "SPARK".
In this script, we present a few ideas
give a couple of greetings and may give way to say food for
razmyshleniy.No, navigate to the report on the work done ...
Many (probably) a couple of years ago saw the demo-version of
the game, "Little Town". Judging for reviews, and people liked
the deme began to wait and save up the "blood" to the full
version igrushki.No apparently all projects of this kind are
doomed to a long, painful izgotovlenie.Nesmotrya on
this game is gradually being written, and is currently packed
with about 200 levels (20 digits, 10-15 figures). Shapes
thematically grouped into ranks, and
attached to each category title screen with some effect.
The game has a lot of different souvenirs and pribambasov.Nami
revised design of the game field and introduced new elements
into the game protsess.Do full completion of the project
remaining 20-30% raboty.No exact timing
One can not say, no time to work.
Sorry for obeschaniya.Teper before
the exit the game (not otherwise !!!), you'll see a pre-Release
"Little Town" in which will be 20 pieces one from each category.
Now about ideyah.V recently become
appear for the effect of "tricolor".
But all of this effect is reduced
to the fact that programmers using different methods, draw
graphics IBM'ok. This method eliminates the use of tricolor'a
in the design of programs for groups without access to IBM'am
The idea is to use resources to create SPECTRUMa tricolor. To
do this, I (A-GRAPh'om) was established EDITOR little for
pictures 128x128 pixels and 8 colors on one point.
But as the experience in writing various system software, I was
not, get small monsters. Roughly
saying, "artist" is available from the palette
8 colors, magnifying glass with an increase in x4 mode,
"PEN" (pencil) and even then, it is only if
he has KEMPSTON MOUSE.Ponyatno that
an editor can not produce a
"The people" because it is "People" did not
will take. So do not look for it in catalogs
at your Distributor'ov. But it may soon
anyone and even write a good and comfortable editor tricolor'a
(maybe it'll I).
The second idea is that if you want graphics Spectrum
You can dopolnit.Pri then lost the use of function "FLASH".
But it will give an additional palette
96 (color is given once for all familiarity). The effect is
specific and it is hard to describe, but basically is a mixture
of color inks and paper: and as a result, obtaining a new
tsveta.U me is this revision
"Permanently", which initially baffled my friends (no blinking
cursor, and its unusual color). And though the way application
of this effect has not been determined, here's the gist. As is
known in the attribute byte is a bit which indicates the video
controller that to a certain frequency change ink color on the
color bumagi.Eto bit flicker or "FLASH". So, if the flicker
frequency to establish a very large (7 MHz instead of the 2-4
Hz), the colors merge and you will see a new color that will
is a mixture of colors of ink and paper.
To finalize the need to disable the generator flicker (GM) and
instead submit he frequency of 7 MHz. (See Figure 1)
from GM --- X - --- processing scheme of flash

7 MHz ----/

WARNING: The effect is not at all
mashinah.Eto not investigated
LIMITED glitch, which experienced
hams can fix
We do not insist that all ran
resolder their kompy.No if at least somewhere
this effect you can apply, we
We are very pleased that our words are not passed and the time
spent explaining was not in vain.
A few words about the game V. Mednonogova
"Black Crow". Sure, it's a masterpiece
domestic igrostroeniya.Ego waiting
dolgo.I after he was released, many
right up to the ceiling podprygnuli.No game is
game, with its surprises and surprises, challenges and intrigue.
Therefore, the Glory has established corporate SNEAT,
but nothing to anyone skazal.Nashimi local Hacker found this
SNEAT and here it is to help you:
1. In the menu select the type of game (again for
people and Kung, recovery levels
AE, back to the TR-DOS), when lit
given menus, press "8"
(Top right corner of the game
field will sign "?").
2. Dial 6275
3. In the upper left corner will appear:
L-> 00 K-> O
4. Use "1" and "2" type
level number which would u
host.
5. Key "3" set an infinite
warrior's death. (Y-immortal)
6. Press "6".
7. From the menu, choose which side will
Dete play (new game for the people
or kung).
8. Further actions are no different
from the normal boot procedure.
If you do something wrong, then carefully
follow the order set and looks good on screen.
In conclusion, we give our group
