This is still pretty darn cool.
However, I'm wondering if vPutS or vPutC disables interrupts, becuase you can make a very small vPutS routine that uses vPutC.

Ah, that makes sense.

definitely add diagonals. it wouldn't feel right without them.
oh, and thanks for the help last night mr penguin. i successfully created an arbitrary wireframe polygon drawer in chem class today =D
how do you go about filling sides with a solid colour?

    Those look great. Diagonals will probably be needed too. I'll add in the 2 degrees of turning also. With all these great directional sprites, I'm going to have to start working on angled shots. That will be interesting. Also, I suck at sprites, I forgot about braking/boosting, but I guess you'll have to resize those too.

     Making the wireframe is the easy part. Filling them in is where it gets really hard. You basically need grayscale to do make it look right. But here's how I did it. First you make a buffer the size of your screen Y * 2 * corners. So mine is a static 48 * 2 * 4 = 384 bytes. Then you draw data lines connecting your corners if your shape. These data lines are defined by a farthest left and farthest right in each row. So if its a vertical line, its min and max are the same number. If its horizontal, its min is its start and max is its end. And for diagonals you do the same thing, just for each row you find min and max. Then once you have your lines drawn, you step through each row, find the lowest min and highest max, and shade the area in between. I can't imagine doing this fast in anything but asm though.

    I'll make sure to include that sketchy character that your talking about. I've heard his name somewhere...

That would work. I forgot about edge lines. I used to use them, but then I realized with grayscale they weren't needed.

If you fill that whole template, this will be the coolest looking game ever. 

Yes, I'll need all of those directions. I'll mirror over the other set on-calc. I really must thank you for all of these sprites, I'll have to make a credits page in the game and get your name in there.

200th post. Yay

That's so awesome. I like getting new sprites from you because they are so easy to add. Just convert/copy/paste. Whereas the ships sprites take a bit of work to get right. Oh well, they're both needed.

You'll definitely be on that credits page too.

Man, I can't wait for an actual game release based on this.
