v1.8.9 bright 8 does not work (*solved*) - Eqx - 2019-04-14

Hello Boriel,
I found a problem wih bright 8
I'm coding some routines for a game and I need use bright 8 to draw four lines on a square with attributes: ink 2 and bright 1
I set paper 8, ink 8 and bright 8 to draw lines in this zone but zxbasic changes the brightness to zero and seems doesn't works.

Thanks

Code:
ink 2: bright 1
plot 117,154: 
draw 0,-8: draw 1,0: draw 0,-5: draw -1,0: draw 0,-8: draw 8,0: draw 0,1: draw 5,0: draw 0,-1: draw 8,0: draw 0,8: 
draw -1,0: draw 0,5: draw 1,0: draw 0,8: draw -8,0: draw 0,-1: draw -5,0: draw 0,1: draw -8,0

do

.....

if IN 32766 = 190 go sub fire

print paper 6;over 1; INK 0;AT 5,15;"  ";AT 6,15;"  "

loop

fire:

ink 8: paper 8: bright 8: over 1 
for n=1 TO 2 
    plot 0,191:draw 126,-47
    plot 255,191:draw -126,-47
    plot 80,75: draw 48,69
    plot 175,75:draw -48,69
next n

over 0

return

My apologies for repeat the question, I'm in trouble with this Smile

specifying
bright 8 works in zxboriel as sinclair basic ?
(transparent bright)
Thx a lot
Best regards!

Siento insistir en esta cuestión
Para poder tomar una decisión, tan solo necesito saber si es un posible bug de esta versión o el zx basic no soporta el valor 8 para el brillo de la misma manera que lo hace el basic de sinclair .
Muchas gracias
Un saludo!

It should work as in Sinclair BASIC. ZX Basic uses its own printing routine.
I'll look into it, thx 8)

Problem only is with bright 8.
paper 8 and ink 8 works fine in zx basic
Thank you very much Boriel!

Ok, there was a (long lasting!) bug in both FLASH and BRIGHT, now fixed.
Please, download this beta, and tell me if it works ok :roll:

Seems that nobody used BRIGHT 8 nor FLASH 8 before!
I will put these updates in the next 1.8.10 stable. In the meantime, keep this beta10 :wink:

BTW nice screenshots!
