TIX Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 OK I know I'm a pain, but I'm getting obsessed over little details.... below you will find revised climbing animation to be universal with the walking ! also slightly tweaked jump frame.. aaaand I'm done. Can't wait to mess with Moon Patrol !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIX Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 And the full sprite sheet, for anyone interested for hacking/porting or whatever 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 (edited) This should get it.... Miner 2049er AS08.rom All should be as you had graphed out with two exceptions. On these adding a layer of blue in the middle while had the top move more out of the range of red. So these two were just absent some of the upper red pixels (in the arms extended beside the head.) And if this works then we'll make a 5200 version! Edited September 14, 2018 by doctorclu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIX Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 ok small compromise.. port away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Adam+ Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Hi, I don't want to spoil the party, but IMHO there could be made several improvements. For example the upper part looks awkward in the last phases of climbing, it does not look like the guy is bending his head. I'm attaching a simple example how it could be corrected.

I'll let TIX the graphics man chime in on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I have moved my attention to Moon Patrol now Good idea! The rover on the 5200 version SUCKS!

TIX Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 Unfortunately the limitations of the original Atari Moon Patrol does not allow a faithful reproduction of the buggy.. read the details on the new topic: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/282701-moon-patrol-body-shop/ But will try our best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) And the 5200 version of Miner2049 with the Alternative Sprite Hack! [Recorded with Atari800 OS X . Atari800OS X has a no sound bug in current revision.] Miner2049er 5200 AS01.bin Try it out. Was able to get this to run under Atari800 OSX, but not Altiera for some reason.

TIX Posted September 15, 2018 Author Share Posted September 15, 2018 I wonder if the more colorfull sequel (Bounty Bob strikes back) allows more colors on the sprite layers ? I think that Bob sprite is exactly the same ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I wonder if the more colorfull sequel (Bounty Bob strikes back) allows more colors on the sprite layers ? I think that Bob sprite is exactly the same ! Same but the layers are more concise. Not sure we'd be able to get away with as much as we did here. I've looked at BBSB (because I knew it would come up eventually) and need to locate the color codes. Basically other colors should be possible, we just lucked into red, white, and blue which worked great here. And I believe, based on the character sprites, that BBSB has Bob with three layers once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIX Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 [Recorded with Atari800 OS X . Atari800OS X has a no sound bug in current revision.] I'm currently playing the 800 version using the Atari800 emu on retropie, I noticed that the games play at double the speed.. Do you have any tip to rectify the situation ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Huh... not really. Played at normal speed on Atari800OSX and Altierra for me. And the 800 version did work on Altierra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIX Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 ..I mean all games not Miner in particular, have you any idea about the configuration of the Atari800 emu ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Actually thought about it this morning and I believe you might need to limit the speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giles N Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 @TIX @doctorclu Could this sprite also be put into ‘Bounty Bob Strikes Back’ (the sequel), or would that be a completely new project? I’d like to see the new-Bob put into Bounty Bob Strikes Back, too… ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Sure it could, just remember that the sprites were handled a bit differently on Bounty Bob Strikes Back. Cool thing is, as we saw in Moon Patrol, Tix and his buddies are good at hack parameters too, not just the sprites (and the hunting and pecking I did to find color codes.)

I’d love to see a Bounty Bob Strikes Back with New-Bob in it. (I just think the original old-Bob looked kinda dull). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
