WOW MAN!

OK, one more update and then I need to get back to other stuff.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5493868/litewall5.nes

Changes? User interaction! Scroll text!

Use U/D/L/R to select the mode. Use A/B to increase/decrease animation speed.

Could do some cool stuff with the scroll text mode but I have to leave it alone for a while. I implemented two quick "controls" that you can put anywhere in the text string. One to set the background/foreground colour and the other to specify a pause. You can see both of these in the scroll text mode. Only done the numbers 0-9 so far because i had to TYPE THE FONT IN USING ZEROS AND ONES!

That's how I roll. That is how I roll.

I'm gonna be that guy. I dont really like it. The wall as used at blip was actually a video screen, not just a bunch of streaming pixels (well most of the time). I thin the tech demo, although cool, isn't nearly as impressive as seeing images and sprites blown up huge like, yknow?

But I never liked the blip wall anyways, cause I thought it diluted the intent and intention of the vjs and was tres gimmicky.

? It's pretty, and impressive for breaking "rules" for the NES! That's what I say. smile

I was just fucking around with this while listening to some Barry White and it's amazing. It'll be interesting to see what is possible with future revisions of this because I think even in its current form it would be possible to use at shows and have it look good.

I'd love to see the source code for that last one, because as long and annoying as it would be, it would be nice to modify the text.

I would also like to give that a try. Also I was curious, is there a way to change the background color after starting the rom?

and Neil, you are a total hero!

Code coming soon. For my own sanity I need to improve the "raster" split timing.

If it's interesting enough for people I'd be open to feature requests (providing you're not in a massive hurry and they're actually doable!).

I spend some time (before I've just been away for a few days) trying to play some of my music with the light wall. My old game music driver is *just* fast enough to play but I'm afraid NTRQ and Nijuu are just too full-fat. It's something I might work on - NTRQ's stand-alone player is terribly inefficient sad

Sweet Neil, good job.  I enjoy it a lot.  The emulator I used crashed on quit but no biggie.
