#Amiga Glitches
3 messages in this thread
I have noticed glitches on the screen, when it is either being created or
animated, notably in:
1) The slideshow programs, at the edged of the pictures or at the top of the
picture being scrolled up or down.
2) In Marble Madness, with the Marbles and those moving hills. If you look
closely at those moving hills (I don't know what else to call them) you will
see the glitches. 3) In MindWalker, second screen. This is not a glitch
because it stays there (I'm sorry, I meant third screen.) But I listed it
because the problem might be related. Does anybody know if this problem is in
the Amiga's display hardware?
If in MindWalker, you are talking about the "broken sprite" as it has been
called here, seen when inside the brain–while fighting virus. Then the
problem has been narrowed down to the fact that there is an apparent bug that
allowed the sprites to be addressed outside a window boundry. This has
apparently been fixed in 1.2, also…it can be "fixed" in your machine by
moving the whole screen (in preferences) to the far right and down a bit.
