Re: A86: Scrolling starfield question
cool, also, i have a couple of more questions.
what is parallax scrolling?
also, would vertical be easier?
and, when you scroll the screen left, how do would you shift the screen left
by 1 pixel vertical row? if i remember, when you scroll vertically, you
shift the video memory (i think, i'm not sure, it might be different), how
would you do it horizontally?
thanks
