PhilosopherEd Goliath Posted: 22 Feb 2004 11:57 GMT Total Posts: 134 | I have downloaded a lot of games in the past year and I amazed at some of the things a BASIC program can do. Some games have huge movies on them that I can just sit and watch. How is it possible to make movies? I thought it had something to do with recalling pics and such, but 10 pics wouldn't be enough for a movie. Besides, that would take up and enormous amount of room. Does anyone have any info? |

Another way is through ASM. The only program I can think of is TIMM for the 89. |
