I've totally disabled the palette switching code when $LET HI_RES = 1 is set. You'll need different batches of sprites for different colours if you want to re-implement that. As you hated the garish colours, you could just repaint the default grey sprites with colours that you like.
Give me a shout if you run across any problems or have any questions.
I gave "scramble-with-options.bas" a try, but it's running absurdly slow - it displays 1 frame maybe every 10 seconds.
However, the display I'm using is only 1370x768, so it might be causing problems?
I can try it with a more capable display later in the week...
Are there any options in the game that might need changing for a smaller display?
