Hi, Phill! Sorry for the delay in the response. I had three exams this week — two hard ones on the same day! 😉 But it's spring break now, and I actually don't have any papers to write! Yahoo! <g> >> The only person here that is ALLOWED to use compuserve is now off work, >> so I cannot pretend that the phone calls are his :-(. <g> If you subscribe yourself, you can use AutoPilot on your Amiga. No more Unix blues (or is that monochrome greens? <g>)! B) >> Anyway, how is it going. Have you made any progress? I haven't even _tried_ to make progress — I've been too busy with other garbage, such as studying. :l I should have some time this summer, though. (It starts in May for me :). Or perhaps I'll spend some time on it next week — that's doubtful, though, as I need to do a lot of learning about how to program the custom chips directly, as well as other things. >> So keep each polygon seperately in memory, as each one changes you could >> draw/erase the bits that need to be. Uh…. >> Actually this is probably too heavy to think about let alone code. You got that one right. <g> Sounds _very_ memory-intensive, though. I wish I could get my bookstore to order me a 680×0 programmer's guide. They can't ever seem to find any. 🙁 >> Did you ever manage to contact Jez San. I haven't tried yet. >> The question on everones lips is, could someone get hold of them, stick >> them on an expansion board and then you could use that. Theoretically, yes. But Nintendo would never license them to anyone. 😉 – Jim, on AutoPilot!
