Short: 15bit & faster 4/8bit driver for ShapeShifter
Author: Pawel "CBM80" Hernik
Uploader: spi-ph@srv1.tu.kielce.pl <Pawel Hernik>
Type: misc/emu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEATURES:
- 8-bit refresh code rewritten. Now it's up to 1.8 times faster
(especially in doublescan modes) than my refresh routine in
ShapeShifter 3.1 (and over 25 times faster than in ShapeShifter 3.0)
- Added support for 15-bit mode with fast conversion to HAM8
- Almost 2 times faster chunky2plannar routines for 4-bit refresh
- Old 2-bit routine is added (for your comfort :) )
- All refresh routines convert only screen changes ("delta" buffer)
- Now all refresh routines are safer and don't trash screen when bitmap
width isn't multiple of 64 (ShapeShifter allows multiple of 16)
What is new in V1.2?
1.2 (14.11.95)
- faster 4-bit refresh (max 2 times!)
- better quality of 15-bit to HAM8 conversion and now refresh is even
a bit faster because of using lookup table and only right changed
parts of lines are refreshed (even Copland look compatible!)
- now border is always black (unfortunately Christian didn't support
"Black border" gadget in EVD specifications), in previous version
you had to use bblank or similar programs
