ah cool then. I wish I had a program that takes a grayscale sprite (3 level, 4 level, 5 level, etc) and make all the layers with checkered pattern I need for making grayscale in my BASIC games, that would save me lot of time for sprite making, which is the hardest part of making grayscale games in BASIC |
could you make a demo of the grey scale effects showing how you interlaced the pics...maybe I could come up with some thing

would be cool :)
5 level grayscale isnt really worth it for z80 calcs, 4 level do a good job, but would be cool anyway for title screens :) |
well, I came up with my own way and I am working on a basic program to create a sprite and put it onto the pics of your choice with dithering, I also found that dithering/interlacing entire pics of gray scale in 4 or 5 would be incredibly slow and complex in basic (and would require a large amount of free ram, lots of masterful string manipulation, ect) so I stopped trying at it.
hope to get it up and working soon for upload.
