olavese@online.no Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I am not sure if it's my mind, but I am almost certain that my tape from Mastertronic with the game Storm, didn't have the buggy picture on the opening screen. Can anyone point to a good working copy or tell me I am wrong? I remember trying to copy this game from tape to disk and fail. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roydea6 Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 What do you mean about buggy? I have played Storm some time ago, but never noticed anything buggy. Storm.zip Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly sure the area was clean in the tape version ... I might be mistaken, but if no one else remembers, I think I need to fire up the 410 and test it.

Kr0tki Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Uh-uh. Check out the screenshots at Mobygames. This "bug" is on all versions of the game and is actually a part of the map, a "wooden floor". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+orpheuswaking Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I loaded my tape today, same thing (PAL or NTSC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I don't know this game, but I have the original tape. Even the pictures on the tape booklet do show this. So I think your memory is wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone point to a good working copy or tell me I am wrong? I remember trying to copy this game from tape to disk and fail. Thanks Hmm, what buggy picture do you mean ?!? Think there once was a collection of movie-pictures (made with Computereyes or converted from another computer) that showed pics. from movies like "Gone with the Wind", "Indiana Jones", "Rambo", etc. and also a "Conan" picture. This Gr. 15 Conan picture was later taken as the title picture for Storm. Maybe you can find a copy of Storm with this title picture at Fandal`s site or at atarionline.pl or at Homesoft`s site or simply use the Gr. 15 pic (attachment below) and add it to the game yourself... Besides, I have had dozens of original tapes of "Storm" by Mastertronic and none of them included this title picture, so I am not sure if it was an official release or if only the file-version (by some hacker/cracker) included this title picture. There was also a Gr. 15 picture with a -mostly green- magician available in the PD libraries, this one was later used as the loading title for Druid (again, not sure if officially or only the hacked/cracked file-version). From time to time hackers removed title screens from games which had them, but from time to time they also added them to games which did not have them - using pics. from PD libraries (and/or converted pics. from other computers)... maybe the guys at atarimania know more about Storm and Druid with/without title-picture... Attached the pics here: G15PIC02 - shows the original Gr. 15 Conan picture... G15PIC10 - shows the original Gr. 15 magician picture... G15PIC18 - shows the Storm and Druid pictures (some kind of deja-vue) Greetings, Andreas Koch. P.S.: There is also another Druid picture for the A8 available, which is similar to the one used on the C64 (and probably other computer platforms), at least I do remember a MCS picture by emkay and maybe one or two similar pictures by other authors showing more than the standard four colours... storm_druid_pics.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CharlieChaplin Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Besides, the "Storm" text-title says PART 1, was there ever a part 2 on any computer platform ?!? -Andreas Koch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mclaneinc Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 that's why I wrote "could be" You missed my poor attempt at sarcasm, as in the way most newbies when hearing there's a game possibly being made always expect it to be finished the day after it being talked about let alone if the person is even doing it or not..
