For FirebrandX's "Composite Direct" NES Palette
|
Click here to return to the main page. These screenshots were generated by NEStopia; if you see any oddities at the top and/or bottom, that's because NEStopia's screenshots ignore overscan clip settings, thus showing the top and bottom 8 pixels that are normally hidden on an NTSC television (and in most emulators). From FirebrandX's "November 2017 Palette Descriptions" file: “A pure direct capture palette. Capture devices will 'clip' NTSC voltages to fit the RGB color space. Most colors will come out normally, but some extreme edge-case colors will be clipped and result in a differen [sic] hue. The major example is the Super Mario Brother's [sic] blue sky appearing more purplish in direct captures.” This palette was actually the most accurate one I could find before I made my "Definitive" palette. :) |

In the level shown in the last screenshot, the trunk of the tree and the bottoms of the fence posts are missing.

If the animation sticks, just wait a few seconds. It SHOULD restart. :)

Legendary Wings
The last vertical-scrolling level uses $11 and $12 in a way that creates a really cool texture when playing the game on actual hardware and on a CRT TV. :D

Adventures of Tom Sawyer
The alligator boss at the end of the rafting level uses two greens ($19 and $1A) that, on my actual NES Control Deck, are
almost indistinguishable — but they do add a cool texture due to the composite artefacting! :D
