@tauon @orangelantern last time I've seen any tool like that was in #MSDOS.

SuperIluThis sketch also runs on #DOjS, my #p5js compatible #CreativeCoding platform for #MSDOS.
Only change is that I needed to remove the SVG rendering as that is not supported.
I will make the source available later.
CyningstanThe Mace is a blunt weapon for bludgeoning enemies. The mace supplements the player character's Strength to cause damage to an enemy. It needs Bludgeoning:3 skill to use effectively.

DesertFOXOh coolβ¦ hab mir grad fΓΌr nicht mal 18β¬ einen kompletten Satz βZak McKrackenβ Disketten ersteigert. Das mΓΌsste die deutschsprachige EGA Version aus dem Jahre 1988 sein. Normal gehen die doch deutlich teurer weg. Muss jetzt halt warten. Ich bin gespannt und hoffe, die Disketten sind noch gut lesbar.

root42The original VGA card used 8-bit indexed color modes to generate 256 color graphics. This is completely not useful for cross fading images. If you are interested in how you can still achieve this, check out my latest #letscode #msdos video:

Carlos Rodrigues πͺ£"Colin McRae Rally" (Codemasters, 1998) might be what comes to mind when you think about 90s PC rally games, but in my mind it's "Network Q RAC Rally Championship" (Magnetic Fields, 1996).
Despite the cumbersome name, it's a good game. Not as realistic as other games that followed, but maybe that's why it stuck in my memory.
I tend to favour its arcade modes, as I'm not very fond of choosing tyres, engine options, etc.

Alice walked along a path. She chose a way. And now she's following the trail. Yellow autumn leaves all around. And a bunch of half-withered autumn plants. Such yellow grass. Already dry.

New video: Let's Code MS DOS 0x44: VGA Blending
The VGA card can display up to 256 colors on the screen at the same time, using an indexed 8 bit color mode. This is not much, but it allows us to fade two 16 color images into each other. This looks pretty nifty!
