Nope, vertical text sprites is a totally different technique (that I still don't understand XD). I'll post code showing how dual layer works

So it is kind of like using horizontal text sprites but with full sized characters? I mean I see what is happening and all...but ya. Also, are the store and recall of pics necessary?

Thanks by the way.

Thanks :) I got really tired of either trying to guess a combination, or repeatedly testing combinations while I was programming, so I decided to end it once and for all. Also, I believe all of those characters are ones you can get on the calc without an asm program.

Yes they are. If you do not store/recall the pic then the first text will just be overwritten by the other one. Storing/recalling allows you to have both lines of text displayed together.

Yeah, i never actually got around to learning them, but i believe they use the same concept as horozontile text sprites

That's right.  Please note Vertical Text Sprites don't work on 2.53MP unless you use an Asm program to turn off a flag.  :(

:O You know what this means???  Portal won't work on 2.53 either!  It requires that that flag be off in order for it to run :(

:(
TI, FEEL OUR WRATH!

This is too bad. :(

By the way, the hex code to turn the flag off is:
AsmPrgmFDCB058ECC9

Why Ti, why?
