Co., Everett, WA Lines: 9 I am having trouble with modifying the display list to mix graphics and text modes. Specifically, I have written a slot machine game using the PM Animator software. I poked memory locations used by the display control chip to put some graphics mode 2 lines in a graphics mode 7 field. The program works fine on my 800 using a monitor for display. If I use a normal TV the display rolls vertically. Question; Am I sending too many lines to the display chip? Is there a memory location to control the number of scan lines sent to the display?I believe the monitor just ignores the extra lines.
