As has been explained over and over (exhaustingly I'd say) in various ways now:
PETSCII it ain't, HiRes it is, live with it.

The term "PETSCII" refers to the character encoding - NOT to the actual charset (just like ASCII). And in the C64 scene, a "PETSCII image" refers to an image made with the C64 ROM charset for that matter.

Ok rgr that. I learned when I use PET character set it is not PETSCII at all. I wonder where the name for PETSCII comes from ^^ I was happy it worked on my real computer as I designed it. This combo was textmode graphics and I designed it with petscii editor using PET characters. Then it's not PETSCII for you it's ok for me. Wait till you see the real-life picture of my sweatshirt. I'll post it here when they finally publish photowall pictures from Revision. TBC and have a nice weekend 4 you all ♡

What ChatGPZ is telling you is that the PET charset is like any other custom charset. Any charset could have been added by the coder to the PETSCII editor you mentioned. It could be for example Atari’s ATASCII or Amstrad’s AMSCII. Anything really. And it would still look good (or as it was supposed to look) on your C64. That does not mean that your C64 came equipped with all those charsets, it just means that the PETSCII software in question saved the custom charset definition in the .prg file.

If you want to make an actual C64 PETSCII image, then you should simply select the C64 ROM charset in the editor.

That the editor lets you use charsets from other Commodore computers is a totally unrelated thing :)

So why there is option of PET lowercase and uppercase? https://petscii.krissz.hu are you saying they are custom ones? It looks good on my real breadbox. What I do wrong if this is not PETSCII?

This is how the equivalent C64 PETSCII screen would look like:

(i have to correct myself: there are actually some multicolor chars)

In VICE break into the monitor (ALT+H), then use
> d018 17
x

to switch off the custom charset, and enable the ROM charset instead.

It’s not that you did “some high res”, it’s that the software you are using provided a custom charset for you (PET charset is just like any other custom charset when on C64). The only charset that defines some prod as “C64 PETSCII” is in ROM. The charset you’re using is NOT in ROM. When you exported your file, the software you’re using packed the tables for screen RAM and color RAM, plus a whole custom charset definition. ChatGPZ even told you the memory location of the custom charset. Are you able to understand what I’m saying?

I changed it back to PETSCII what is. It is not high-res picture.

Hedning, please set the category to “not PETSCII” and lock the entry.

My only problem is that you keep changing the category to PETSCII and I think this calls for a vandalism ban from the higher authority. Mods, where are you? There is no need to “go ask” anyone. For the umpteenth time: THIS IS NOT A PETSCII. Go search Dunning-Kruger on Google.

Ask about PETSCII editor coder Krissz.hu is it PETSCII or not, I think the coder of the editor can tell us did I do some High-res or not. All I know it's is working as I designed it with Krissz.hu PETSCII editor on my real-life C64. If I founded something new in multicolor you did not know existed, maybe you learned something new too. PETSCII comes from Commodore PET right and C64 has it characters build in upper and lower cases and only one of those are used. I don't understand what is the problem.

This conversation reminds me why I don’t like software gadgets that churn out executables instead of byte tables to be used by a human coder.

LOL, no it doesn't. Please have someone who knows C64 explain these things to you :)

Dear friend, did you know C64 includes PET fonts too?
User Comment
Submitted by juN3bula on 3 May 2024
No it does not not use custom characters just Multicolor. Yes I'm neebie, I just do something new.

Correct me, if I'm wrong but if this would be real PETSCII with the Commodore 64 basic font, would look like this:

Of course it uses a custom charset, it's located at $2000. PETSCII uses the ROM charset.

Also BTW: although multicolor mode is enabled, it only uses colors 0-7, so it is still completely hires :)

Go to some friend of yours that understands something about C64, ask him about this, then come back.

My entry does not have custom character set and it can be printed to my crt with my Commodore computer. What is your problem, test it by your self with real hardware please.

If this stays categorized as “PETSCII” then I don’t see the point of categories at all. Administrators?

A PETSCII picture can be PRINTed. And it does not use a custom charset by definition.

It is using PET character set with Multicolor, deal with it. It is PETSCII.

Actually not b) either, it has more than two colors, which a PET can't even display.
User Comment
Submitted by chatGPZ on 3 May 2024
It is either a) Hires (made with custom charset) or b) PETSCII, but for a PET - and thus not belong here at all.

This is PETSCII, what is the problem why you had to update it to high-res?. I updated information back to PETSCII from Hi-res because that what it is. I don't made high resolution art at all. Look below how I made and it It works with my breadbox C64 what is madei in England.

No, Multicolor ain't necessarily Bitmap either, so I don't see why gfx type flag "HiRes" shouldn't include HiRes CharMode as well

Charset seems to be PET PETSCII, not C64 PETSCII .. so I'm wondering what the graphic type should be on CSDb? It's a hires "custom" font, for the C64, but I think "HiRes" usually refers to bitmaps..?
