OK, I added new functionality to the "Inc Hue" and "Dec Hue" buttons for normal CGA modes. These buttons normally change the TV hue settings when used in CGA's 16-colour "Composite" mode. They are by default Alt+F11 and F11.
In 4 colour mode I made "Inc Hue" cycle between the 6 different cga palettes, in the order:
cyan, magenta, lt grey
red, green, brown
cyan, red, lt grey
lt cyan, lt magenta, white
lt red, lt green, yellow
lt cyan, lt red, white
And I made "Dec Hue" cycle between the 16 background colours, 16 foreground colours, or 16 overscan colours in 4-colour, 2-colour and text modes respectively.
In CGA composite mode they still do the same thing they did before.
The problem is that the SO-CALLED "0.65 source code" (unlike the actual 0.65 build) doesn't work in any mode except "surface". DirectDraw mode gives an error on startup and won't work. Also it won't run with the SDL.DLL file that comes with the 0.65 build (I use a DLL from a later CVS version, one from the SDL website or the one we built with the 0.65 source). You don't have to take my word for it, ask anyone.
Is there any way we can get the REAL 0.65 source code? Or some source code that actually works???
