I remember, that Steve Sutton also implemented a way of mixing Mode 4 & Mode 8 in his adventure creation program from DP (have forgotten the name....). Must have been in the late 80s.

I came up with the same trick many years ago, although I only implemented the 256 x 256 (two mode 8 screen) hi color display. The idea of mixing a mode 4 with a mode 8 screen did not occur to me. I produced a demo disk including about 5 colorful images. It was sometime between 1990 and the end of 1993... I showed the result at the Bedford U.S. QL show to a few people but nobody seemed to care. That put an end to my hi color research on the QL...

It is good to see that progress has continued and the sources now
released for QL - Dithvide, which allows the standard QL to display high
resolution colours - see
http://omega.webnode.com/products/sinclair-ql-dithvide-2/

This should be supported - wonder if anyone would be interested in
writing a game using these techniques?
