MissCommand Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Nukey Shay did do that! He made a three base missile command (using the second joystick I think) and added in the satellites. I just wish he had made the satellite option for the one base Missile Command... playing with two joysticks at one time is difficult!

metoo3 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) Since I'm playing the v8 version quite a bit it came to my attention there is a bit of crackling sound every once in a while. I tried other games as well different TV sets but it seems only related to that specific game... Could someone confirm? (no issue though, just interest... ) Edited January 30, 2020 by metoo3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissCommand Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I was wondering if this has the "safe" space like the arcade? I tried it in the same general location in the maze and it doesn't seem to work for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pacman Collection for the 7800 simply reused the same engjne for all mazes with subtle tweaks between pacman and ms pacman modes. Atari Pacman, Atari Ms Pacman, Hack em, ms hackem, Pacman arcade (ms pacman hack), debro pacman 4k, dintar new pacman 8k, that's seven right there. Don't forget Nukey Shay's Pac-Man 8k. It's here on Atari Age somewhere. He took the original VCS Pac-Man, added real fruit, intermissions,correct colors, and points on the screen when you eat ghosts. It's pretty awesome.

KAZ Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) Fix for [Mister FPGA] (Atari 2600 core): To get Dintar's pac-man to work in 'mister', you need to use this special .rbf file. Just replace the existing .rbf for Atari 2600. It has vblank options in the core. This is an 'unofficial' build (adjusted just today in fact). If you don't, it will not show video output, just sound. A new challenge perhaps. Here is the mister forum post discussing it: https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=764&p=9916#p9916 It also fixes various other games. I also tested 'princess rescue', and it also works. ------------------ Edit: While not 'authentic' I really like using the setting: 'scandoubler fx': HQ2x Edit2: Dintar's pac-man works in 'mist' fpga.

KAZ Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) I keep losing the page where the most recent version is. I'm just attaching it here for convenience. This one features cornering.

DZ-jay, your method is difficult to apply here because it would require a lot of rom (many tables) for example I would need 4 times more rom for the "move delta" table (that is, 256), since my method uses 8 x 8 virtual tiles , thank you anyway for the detailed explanation, since it inspired me to make this possible. Now it is also possible to increase the speed of the game with the right switch (in the "A" position the speed increases).

Hawkangel Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I’m new here after an looong Atari hiatus. Thanks for creating this 8K version. I’m a physical media kind of guy - is there any way to get a cartridge of this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffsFort Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Wow... I was floored when I first played the 4K version. This is just mind blowing as ever since the release of Pac-Man for the Atari back in the 80's, I had always just figured the console couldn't manage anything similar to the arcade game. I can't stop playing this and even during breaks from game play, I sit and watch the attract mode. I do know there was a cartridge for sale at one point. Not sure which version. Even if it isn't the ROM that is being circulated, I'd like to purchase one as well to support the effort. I haven't been this impressed with an Atari game since the first time I ever played Asteroids in my own home. Only thing missing is my mother telling me to give my little brother a turn. LOL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
