Fixing E.T. The Extra Terrestrial

Everyone complains about E.T., but no one does anything about it. 30 years after its release, with some time off for the new year, I took a shot at fixing some of the problems like accidentally falling in to wells and the punishing difficulty. It turned out really well, and makes for a much better experience. I have a quick write-up about the hack here: http://www.neocomput...g/projects/et - E.T. is Not Green ------------------------------------------- 17FA:

Philsan...I am pleased to present my new E.T. Completely Fixed version, which now includes a fix for the bug that you have highlighted. Through some testing, I discovered that one small portion of the Falling Fix (done by Neocomputer in 2013) was inadvertently causing this. I WAS able to retain the excellent Falling Fix done by Neocomputer, AND fix the bug, simply by changing the value of 0BF8 from ADC 07 to ADC 06 (i.e., 69 07 to 69 06). I tested the game, and all seems to be working well.
