Hi,

How do you access 16bit video Ram directly using assembler? Do you still
write to
0x0A000, just for a greater total of bytes than the 320x200 64000? Or do you
have to do all those weird bank switching thingies and stuff? I know that in
16 bit you have to write more than one byte to set a pixel? Can you still
address the video ram as one big array like in good old 320x200x256?

Any links on this subject?

Please reply by email if at all possible.


FanX!!!!
