-
- he gave the numbers in ms.
-
- after having counted the scanlines the effect needs,
- (by measuring the hight of it on the TV! :D) you calculate
-
- time= (measured_height/height_of_wbscreen)*(256/312.5)*20ms
-
- for a wb screen of 256 pixel height.
-
- ;)
-
- Rallys demo-coding formulas: ;)
- ----------------------------
-
- nr_rasterlines_fx = (measured_height/measured_height_screen)*nr_lines_screen
-
- time = (nr_rasterlines_fx/nr_rasterlines_tv) * frametime_tv
-
- with nr_rasterlines_tv = 312.5 and frametime = 20ms on PAL.
-
- note that (frametime_tv/nr_rasterlines_tv) is almost same on both PAL and NTSC,
- the reason is they got almost same horiz frequency with a reasterline beeing
- 6.4ns on PAL.
-
- So we can aproximate
-
- time = (nr_rasterlines_fx*6.4ns)
- = (measured_height/measured_height_screen)*nr_lines_screen*6.4ns
-
-
- =;)
-
- what do you think about my formulas ? imho much more interesting than
- the crap at school ;)
