G8LIB - 8 level grayscale lib for Axe!
« on: September 07, 2013, 09:45:36 pm »
I've wanted to make 8 level gray for a long time, as in A REALLY LONG TIME, and my assembly skills are too n00bish, so I needed to do it in Axe.

After PMing with the king of grayscale himself, thepenguin77, I got a way to do 8 level, but that wasn't good enough for me to settle with.

I decided to make a library using his routines with the ability to be used with the TI 83+, and the TI-84+ (optional crystal timer interrupt routines (which I got from Runer112's pastebin))

Included in the attached zip are the LIB, and an example picture viewer and accompanying programs and utilities.

No screenies yet, as I am on my bad PC, but I'll attach some as soon as I get on my good one!

SCREENIES! (that suck because I suck with wabbit's settings... MUCH better on-calc)

Interesting. One thing, though: I wonder if this could eventually be merged with the new library by Runer for perfect 4-lv grayscale in Axe? I am curious if it would end up being smaller if combined together? (while still not losing speed).

Maybe, but I doubt it. Runer's lib is optimized for 4-level, and the way I got the 8 level done is different.

Also:

I noticed that the 8 level actually looks better without the interrupts because the interrupts are on their fastest setting, so I would need slightly slower interrupts to make it better with interrupts.

I just added some ease-of-use functions to the lib. I'll upload as soon as I can.

Also: screenies as soon as I can

EDIT: attached the zip. read about the new functions in the README

Looks like it contains SPASM. Why?

Hmm I'm unsure why it would be included, but I guess it's not a good idea unless he got permission from the original authors, but even then it isn't really necessary to include something like Spasm since it's available online anyway.

I don't think there's any issue with including Spasm. You'll also see why it's included if you read the readme ;)

Three things:
One, I forgot to add AMEMKIT to the zip archive. The updated zip file is attached.

Two, SCREENIES!!! (Sorry for the scanlines, I PROMISE it is MUCH better on calc (as in, Wabbit sucks for gray > 4, or I suck at making wabbit's settings right))



Three, SPASM is included so you can use the example image viewer with your own pictures. Read the README :P
