I want to share some of my recent findings when having fun with a very old and not really known graphics mode from 80 called “HAM”. Everything started when I wanted to add HAM support in my bitmap converter tool that I use to create my oldskool demos.
Nowadays you don’t even notice when looking at photos in your web browser. But back in time, displaying a “realistic” image on screen was really a challenge. So let’s say you want to display this nice 16 million colors picture (24bits) on your old Amiga 500 computer.
