Tasword didn't do sub-pixel tricks, did it? Certainly didn't on the Spectrum to get 64 columns on a 32 column display - they just drew the letters themselves instead of using system output. I'd imagine the C64 version was exactly the same?
- Yetanfou 7y agoNo, in the age of CRT monitors it did not make sense to mess with subpixels as those do not have a fixed relationship between actual display RGB-triplets and the displayed bitmap. Apart from that the C64 could only display 16 colours which is not enough to play those tricks.
