Hi Guys,
I usually run the VCC emulator in RGB mode as my Coco 3 is hooked to a CM-8 RGB monitor and I can test software on both Vcc and the Coco.
While in NitrOS-9 on VCC, if I switch to Composite emulation, the colors are much different than RGB mode. How close are these colors to a real composite output on a Coco 3 with a composite monitor or TV?
In developing my software, DW4Man & Sound Chaser, I want to set a color palette to get the same color in composite mode as I get in RGB mode, so I need to know if what I'm seeing is accurate so I can adjust the palettes. The RBG emulation is almost dead on.
I have 3 or 4 color charts and palette number sets that are supposed to match the two modes, but I just need to know about VCC's composite accuracy
Thanks,
Bill P.
