wasn't there also a "counting down rupies" byte so that you could go into your brother's savegame, buy a second Blue Ring, up-A to save and then the next time he joined he'd hear all his rupies disappearing?

It's been a year. The world needs moar moar!! <3 Edit: I just found you have more but on makertube which you have linked on your KZfaq profile. I ask that you don't stop uploading to KZfaq. Your videos are fantastic and there's no chance in hell for any newcomers to find your new content unless they know to visit your KZfaq profile for the link. If you want the exposure you deserve, along with potential monetisation, please keep uploading to KZfaq. I'm a big fan of your content and want it to get the love it deserves <3

How would you record audio to it ?

Antic 2.0

That is a long ass password, but for a game like The Legend of Zelda, I'm not surprised, with as much data as that game has to keep. It makes me wonder how long the password would be if such a system was implemented for a game like breath of the Wild, for instance, let alone ocarina of Time, or a link to the past.

Awesome!

Title had "amiga", "rasterbars", and "copper" in it. Instant subscribe and like.

Hello, could you please make a tuto on how to setup a powerful FS-UAE with high resolution graphics ?

Brilliance 2, the best of the best. Great work !

I think the workbench manual answered the question. At least, i remember learning it from print in the time.

This is a seriously underrated channel!

all amiga fans go to their graves wondering why commodore didn't release an amiga in 1989 with improved sound, 8 bit colours, and a faster processor thereby maintaining the amigas lead in custom hardware over PCs and a lead in price over Apples.

That’s me looking back at my first 2600 programs. 😂

Why are you a rabbit?

I've been trying to remember how all this used to work. Been a few decades since I've touched this stuff, but the itch to do some of this stuff like on a Commander X16 has been growing. The hardware is different, but X16 has a few unique things going for it and I've been thinking about learning that system to see what I could do with its different hardware capabilities. So, thanks for the very well produced explanation! I'd actually forgotten about copper. LOL

I remember those River city ransom passwords.

In the beginning, there were no Fastmem expansions. It's only possible to be backwards-compatible, never future-compatible. Today, the oldies are patched for WHDLoad, but if you have original disks and an Amiga with Fastmem (which all Amigas deserve and makes them thrive), then make the not-future-compatible games run by using HogFast. (Or NoFastMem, unless it gurus your Amiga - again, software cannot be future-compatible.)

Finally understood what it was really doing.

Finally understood what it was about.

Just bought a NES. Did not know this. Thank you.

Well done. A good video for those who didn‘t grow up with an Amiga.

Thats why you code in asm and use sections 😊

Sorry, this is not a good explanation of the copper. Firstly, the copper has very little to do with bitplanes, although you do define the bitplane pointers in the copperlist. In fact the copper isn't restricted by the settings of the display window at all. Again, you do define DIWSTRT/DIWSTOP/DDFSTRT/DDFSTOP in the copperlist, but the operations of the copper happen over the complete width of the raster, so that's why you'll often see colour in the background whilst say, a scrolltext might disappear before the colour ends. The copper is also not affected by the Modulo. Also, there are special waits used to cross into the PAL area of the screen.

Well that does make seamless color bands, but what is more amazing is when the screen changes mode like indexed 4 and ham in a copper line. I guess that means the graphic chip can reconfigure mid screen?

Good old Copper. Those were the days.

Love your videos. I hope you keep them coming.

The most kid friendly Amiga tutorial ever. Gosh I wish this was the 80s and what kids learned in school instead of those Crapple 2’s.

Fantastic! I spent hundreds of hours with copper and blitter ages ago. Good times 😊

Thanks ❤

Love your content! Also the artwork is awesome :)

Thanks for sharing, this came in really useful, while I love the idea of MisterFS I can't seem to get it to see any files I share in there. This option, while a little bit more long winded worked great :-)

I just found two of these disks at an antique shop. :) Was so glad to find some information on these

Great video, I hadn't realised that arcade machines were a big part of the 'video game crash', I had thought it was all down to the saturation of the market with sub-standard home console games.

Nice tunes, and I love the intro. The hard disk sound took me back to the mid 90s when we got one for our A1200 :)

Oh, very interesting. Seen the icon before but never thought much about it.

Some of the most fun, and one of my most treasured memories, was typing in the hex programs from "Compute" magazine with my dad. We would take turns reading and entering the instructions and see what that month's free program had to offer. :)

You might want to take another look at the captions btw. Edit: Nevermind, KZfaq did a weird thing and put all the captions together on one screen. It was trying to translate English captions to English too.

Thank you so much for all your videos! So informative 💖

I used to program Amiga demos, and I never remember it being that complicated 🤣 It was just something along the lines of, coding when you reach this screen position, change the colour palette. Amazing video about how it worked behind the scenes though. Hard to believe the effort put into it

best ever seen and wonderful animations too!

Nice

This is such a nice channel, congrats.

Love the style of these videos. Informative and visually entertaining. Great character designs too. Not complex, but very effective.

I watched all of it

OK, just gotta know. Where did you find the rasterized version of the Topaz font?!

I can just imagine the developers of these tools saying: "We don't need to bother creating any videos explaining how this works..... Somebody 35 years in the future will do it."

Nice demo of hacking a demo game, lulz

Seriesouly, this is amazing. Don't know jack about assebler programming on the Amiga. Or at all. But your videos are a bliss!

These are amazing - you're putting in TONS of work into these, and it's totally worth it!

I like the style of your videos, both entertaining and educational and easy to follow 👍
