How does one get MODE 7 running on the Pi? I’m using my own build from early November. Trying |

I’m curious as to why you need or want mode 7. |

You’ll need a 640×500 definition (there are a couple of different build configurations for the mode 7 emulation, and the only one which supports output to a 256 colour mode does so at 640×500). |

Thanks. I copied the 640×512 and tweaked stuff so it added up. As I’m using a Pi, less need to worry about whether or not the timings made sense as the GPU deals with that, not RISC OS.
It looks good. A far cry from the low-res (even by the standards of the day!) version on the Beeb! |

Rick, you could also use AnyMode on the Pi and not have to play around with MDF files. |
