I seem to remember there was a way to patch most games to make them run
in 128x192, 4 colours instead of 256x192, 2 colours. The CoCo 3 palette
was then manipulated to make those 4 colours black, white, red and blue,
in order to mimic the artifacted mode, or, as I did because I could only
afford a monochrome monitor, 4 levels of gray. Does anyone remember how
it was done? I still only use a monochrome monitor!
