 05847: cgenie, cgenienz: The colour palette should differ between regions?! |
||||
| Description |
According to following info from http://www.classic-computers.org.nz/system-80/hardware_eaca-colour-genie.htm quote from above link: "Regional Variants Interestingly, the colour palette differed between regions of the world. It seems this variation was due to the fact that televisions in some countries (like New Zealand) only supported VHF rather than UHF which in turn meant differences in the built-in RF modulator. This required some parameters of the palette to be different. For example, COLOUR 16 showed white in the Northern Hemisphere while in New Zealand at least, this showed black." ... so, the color palette differed between regions of the world, what is not case with MESS emulation! (see below attached picture for cgenienz MESS driver) |
||||
| Steps To Reproduce |
mess cgenienz in basic type: COLOUR16 and you get white instead of black color. |
||||
| Additional Information |
The other emulator Genieous1.0.3 seems to emulate the palette difference between the south and north variant correct ! http://gaia.atilia.eu/content/view/3/4/ |

Use cgenie for the European palette and cgenienz for the New Zealand one. |
