Re: Three new video modes

Re: Three new video modes

I'm going to do these video modes Spectrum Mode 2 Bpp RamTile mode (Tempest mode minus the background) 1 Bpp RamTile mode with background (Mix of Tempest Mode for the background and modified Mode-6) The point behind the two ramtile modes is to save flash.
