Start working on your entries now if you haven't done so. Especially BASIC fader entries (from BASIC 2.0 screen to single colour) and demos :) |

There can't be enough reminders, for real: missed a bunch of deadlines and sometimes even streams recently because of lacking attention whoring in C64 scene
Really miss CreamD's site with the party calendar, yeah, there's CSDb RSS Upcoming events, but I'm too stupid to display RSSes with 2022 browsers
Anyway, good move, anonym! |

Please note that we're adding a BASIC oneliner competition this time around :)
I've just made some updates to the site as well.

Maximum length for that Basic line is 255 bytes I assume as there are no further specs.
Printing $things to screen and executing those seems allowed as well? |

Basically it's basically one line of basic max. You shall have one line.
We've updated the rules for this compo a little on our site, but might try to clarify it further. Basically, also, no ML code is allowed.
Looking forward to your entry. |

To be completely anal about the BASIC oneliner rules, my assumptions:
1) "In a single line" means in a single line of BASIC, not a single line on screen (i.e. size is not limited to screen width of 40 chars).
2) As long as code can be typed in as a single line of BASIC (i.e. 80 chars), when listed, its length can exceed this.
3) "No machine language code may be included in the file" means that (ab)using kernal routines is still allowed.
4) "Code must be LIST-able" means that the code must be listable before execution, but does not need to be listable after.
Are these assumptions about correct? :) |

Thanks for your questions.
1) yes
2) yes
3) We'll clarify it to say: "no custom machine code allowed". Meaning you can use what the stock system provides.
4) I don't think we're planning on listing or running it a second time.
Looking forward to your entry. |

It is possible to craft a working BASIC program with one line spanning a lot more than 80 tokens.
In other words, what do the rules say about a BASIC oneliner clocking in at say, 64 blocks on disk? =) |

If it has to be listable it'll be 255 bytes max IIRC. |

For those looking for some basic/screen fader inspiration for that competition, I recommend this thread:
Ultimate Screenfader thread
(also, add your own favourites to that thread, please, there've been some new ones) |

Quoting Krill from the ultimate screenfader thread
On that note... the rules don't seem to say anything about video system.
And... some things are possible in NTSC and PAL-N but not PAL-G, especially in the all-borders department.
So, is the choice of video system arbitrary? Asking for a friend! =)
Great question, let me chat about this with the team. Plus I probably should do some recording & hardware tests on NTSC. I do think we only have one type of PAL available at the moment. |

@Krill: We'll be using a standard PAL C64 from Europe. No NTSC or non-standard PAL. |

I'm really looking forward to this as well, it's going to be unique and awesome :) Shogoon is an amazing talent, and we're honoured for him to be a part of our this event.
For those who missed it, we released two little reminders for Transmission64 3rd Edition (2022) at Syntax 2022 over the weekend:
Cupid 's graphic Get Into Gear and Mibri 's 30 second hardcore (non c64) reminder tune, Commodore Hardcore, which you can listen to at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pquMFo6W7o8 |

Of course it's always desirable to have everything done all by yourself or groupmates.
Anyway, how strictly will these ones be handled:
Quote:All entries or parts of it may not have been released prior to the competitions.
Your entries have to be free from third-party rights.
when it comes to ripped music in demos?
I'm asking for a friend! |

It's okay to use a ripped music or a music written by someone else if the rest of the production is original. I think we allowed your "friends'" entry the last time even though it contained an already used tune, IIRC.
That being said, as always we reserve to reject/pre-select any entry. |

We still have uploads open for a bit, but I also received your email. I see that a key was sent to you though, please check your spam folder.
And no, we're not doing the keys automatically, but we responded within minutes to all requests received in the last few hours (thanks Unlock). |

I guess the person who entered it hasn't uploaded it here yet. I'll upload the missing entries over the next couple of days if no one else does so. (They are available to all registered voters.)
If it weren't c64 related it wouldn't have been able to enter the competition in our C64 only party. |
