GrayScale Routine Documentation

Post by tr1p1ea »

Hey Duck, i was just wondering if you had made any progress on that GrayScale Routine Document you were thinking about whipping up. Are you still going to release something like that?

Its partly finished, but I still have to write much on the specifics of the routines.

Right now I'm too busy with an old project of mine (not corbin) which takes extremely much of my time. You'll see :wink:

That depends on what you know. But now you know what I know. Look at Anounce Your Projects.

... There is plenty of documentation if you just want to 'use' Duck's Package (gray.txt).

What Duck is working on now will only be of use if you are interested in making your own grayscale routines.

Thats correct. And I can understand that people want optimized games thus want to write their own routines, and for that purpose one needs to understand the grayscale principles and GPP's implementation. The paper would serve these needs.
