*yawn* grayscale is so passe.

But I have done it...

How so? You mean to say that grayscale is passé in just modern technology in general? Or for the NXT?

Yes, I remember that topic on NXTasy. Perhaps your previous ability to do it was why you classified it as "passé", because while these people are talking about it, you have already done it, and it therefore is something already accomplished to you. Is that why you reffered to grayscale as "passé"?

Ah, my savvy friend, I did mean "out of style"--but only because you can only get around 5 colors (at best). However, it must be remembered that this is a robotics device with a text screen--not a cutting-edge display for a videogame system. If it were an attempt at that, it would be a passé. (Definition for a passé.)

Well I would greatly appreciate just 3 colors: Black, Middle gray, and white.

EDIT: I would love to see a nice 3 color NXT program.

I was working on one, but I needed multi-frame sprites and stuff that I had no idea how to do... I've made all the graphics, but stopped when I realized I could only psuedocode the program.

I could test it for you.

Maybe you could send me the graphics.

sounds awesome.

Well first of all we have to make sure that grayscale is possible and need a simple grayscale program.
If it is grayscale then we need to make a simple grayscale game to see if we can implement it into a game.
If that succeeds, then we can start your game.

Well, I'm just thinking one shade of gray (50%), so it shouldn't be too much.
