While in my local Amiga store a bit ago, I saw an A2500 (with FlickerFixer)
running in what appeared to be 640x200 interlace. This looked really* nice,
and I want to do the same on my A1000 (I don't like big gaps between scanlines
on my monitor).
According to page 18 of RKM: L&D, if one sets the LACE flag in the View
structure without setting it in the corresponding ViewPort(s), one gets
an interlaced display without paying the penalties memory-wise. So I figure,
okay, sounds simple. Well, I tried all kinds of ways of monkeying around with
ViewLord in IntuitionBase, and all I get is a big crash or absolutely nothing.
It would seem the easiest approach should be:
struct View *pView;
pView = ViewAddress();
pView->Modes |= LACE;
RemakeDisplay();
So, am I missing something obvious?
