2-bit high resolution mode added to PokittoSim

would have been easyer as a #define HIRESMODE then relying on IDE

Yep. But: it seems you only have 2 targets showing, correct?

I just cloned from github and opened in 13.12 on windows and i see 4 targets

ok il redownload the files

I downloaded it and tried it (under windows 7) and I have 4 targets. When I switch targets I have to force a rebuild, but then it works.

No problem! I just noticed the sim had been putting bmp files in the bin/Debug and cleaned that up as well

I was wondering if the 256 color hi-res mode (with 1 color per tile and no overlap) is still happening?

Awesome! Thanks!

Out of curiosity, how many bit graphics would that make it?

exactly like text modes on old roguelikes: 1-bit gfx with 1 color from a palette of 16 to each tile. Actually yo can use 2 colors (back & foreground)

could do multiple tiles with diferent color ontop echoter is the background can be transparent

though this type a thing might be useful wen loading sprites of sd card

Is there any way to disable the Pokitto overlay? So the window is just of the game?
