A smooth non-hardware scroll? That'll be a short list.

I'm pretty sure that if it scrolls smooth, that it's either an R#18 or an R#23 scroll. I don't think I've ever seen a game with a smooth non-hardware scroll.

I don't think I've ever seen a game with a smooth non-hardware scroll.That's prolly cause it's not even possible to make a smooth scroll on SC5 without the use of VDP23/VDP18. At a little over 1kB/int for LMMM you're talking like 44x44 pixels! ^_^

Well, you never know whether someone has made a game with a really small playfield Smile

Yes, chucatai uses this techique, it also moves a 'big' sw sprite on the screen during the scroll...

I'm only trying to see if there are some other games that do alike

The use of R#18 and R#23 is pure MSX2, so IMHO the question is incorrect, so games like Space Manbow, Pennant Race 1, Pennant Race 2, Aleste, Aleste 2, Aleste Gaiden, Hydefos, Nosh and Frantic are correct answers.

the only smooth scroll I know without using R#18 or R#23 is in the end demo of SD-Snatcher. Of course you can count the text scrollers from Pumpkin Adventure 3 and The Lost World as well since they use an optimized version of the SD-Snatcher one... Also the Bombaman demos have a smooth scroller.

I Agree!

the problem is that sometimes with terms like "MSX2" often is also referred the "MSX2+".
In my first post, i wrote :

=======================================
Sc5
Smooth Scroll (Horizontal or multidirectional)
!= Total Parody...

No hw scroll used only pure msx2
=======================================

For no HW scroll i mean no specific HW Scroll features only available in msx2+. The use of r18 is OK!

So the question would be:

Sc5
Smooth Scroll (Horizontal or multidirectional)
!= Total Parody...

No hw scroll msx2+ like only pure msx2 features.
