SS Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 As it turns out, I am really really bad at the 5200 version of Pac-Man. I'd like to be able to report how the game runs in higher levels but I cannot seem to actually get to any of the higher levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 ..but I cannot seem to actually get to any of the higher levels. Easy.. all you have to do is press the # button before the game starts and I'll bet you can make it all the way to the key levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Nut Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Try this out. pacman5200conv.xex Thanks, it works. Did I understand that there was a safe corridor to sit and rest that the ghosts never enter? Is that in any of these versions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tep392 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Thanks, it works. Did I understand that there was a safe corridor to sit and rest that the ghosts never enter? Is that in any of these versions? Here is the comment from Pac-man Dossier. I've also included a screenshot of me sitting in a safe spot. You have to be pointing up and it took me a few tries before it worked. I think the monsters have to be in certain area's of the screen so that they go into the right pattern. Of course the pause key is easier. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Nut Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Thanks for these shots. I see now that the ghosts can still enter the tunnels from the end...which is what I was experiencing but wasnt expecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can implement the speed fixes in the conversion. Darn. I spent a lot of time disassembling when it's already been done. Thanks Bob!

SS Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 Thank you Tep. Your work on this project has made the outcome much better than I had ever hoped for with my original question. (Thanks to Bob for his original work too.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Nut Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Yea, thanks again. Do you feel up to doing a 5200 conversion of Berzerk? The 8-bit version is only a prototype and "may" not be complete like the 5200 version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried before with no success, however the trick is to move the green ghost to down-right corner then go to that spot ! (probably, every corner works as well).

The 5200 has the fixes, but it doesn't have a version with the new whacka sound, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+darryl1970 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) With all of the great conversion masters in one place, would anybody be willing to convert my hack of Donkey Kong RMT version to the 5200?? Main hack page Note: Hacks wouldn't have been possible without Playsoft, Tep392, and Kjmann (RMT music). I know there are others that were involved along the way, but they were before my time.

I second for an 8-bit version of 5200 Berzerk too, and one of the complete (2012 finished) version of 5200 Tempest until an official licensed version of it becomes available Berzerk.bin Edited November 7, 2020 by BIGHMW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
