CPUWIZ Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Let's just say, Tempest doesn't even know about this one yet ! More details to follow once it has been properly analyzed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPUWIZ Posted February 26, 2003 Author Share Posted February 26, 2003 I figured it out, "Last Starfighter" was the prototype name for "Solaris", I dumped it and compared the code, it's severly different. I don't know by how much yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEBRO Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 I figured it out, "Last Starfighter" was the prototype name for "Solaris", I dumped it and compared the code, it's severly different. I don't know by how much yet. I assume it's the one Doug did before he left Atari. He mentions he was working on it before the big lay offs. Then he spent time making it better and giving us Solaris in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know by how much yet. Did you compare it to Solaris using CloneSpy? What are the results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted February 26, 2003 Author Share Posted February 26, 2003 No, I never even saw your little proggy before, I used a hex-diff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 No, I never even saw your little proggy before, I used a hex-diff. CloneSpy would give you a coarse estimation about how indentical both binaries are. Using hex-diff will need much more work for about the same result.

Marco Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 I have a Last Starfighter proto as well, but it's the same as Solaris. Cheers, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marco Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Nope, I never compared them, but while I was playing it, I didn't find any noticeable differences. Cheers, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
