Thomas Jentzsch Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 11 hours ago, Al_Nafuur said: Unfortunately, the release comes at a time when AtariAge has decided to remove all unlicensed arcade ports from the shop. What this means for the HSC or public repositories like the PlusStore remains to be seen. What worries you here? As of now, the games will only be removed from the store. There was no talk about any ROMs. And since Albert is doing a sale, I don't think there was a C&D, because this would have made him stop immediately. Finally no Atari games seem to be affected, so somehow the company now called Atari seems to be involved. Whatever that means... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chad5200 Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Couple questions... 1) I see people are playing 1942 bB... however I do not see it on the list of playable HSC games. Am I missing something? 2) Is Juno First crashing for everyone else when a game ends and you try to start the next game? Mine goes to black screen.

Game ends, can see the final score with a pulsing GAME OVER at the bottom that pulses about 5 times, and then screen goes black and it's unresponsive with power cycle being only option.

Works great Al. I tried about 5 times and only once it required me to have to power cycle. Definitely a lot better than before which was after each game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean Juno First loads its high score table from the HSC list? Maybe I missed/forgot, but is this the first hacked game doing so?

+Al_Nafuur Posted July 5, 2023 Author Share Posted July 5, 2023 @JeremiahK and @Just Jeff have allowed Blocks to be added to the PlusROM High Score Club. Blocks is a highly addictive one or two-player version of Bejeweled for the 2600. The PlusROM HSC hack only sends the scores of the one player game variants to the online lists. As always, PlusCart user can find the PAL50/NTSC version (PAL50 mode can be enabled by pushing right the left player's joystick as you load the ROM) in the PlusStore directory "Public ROMs\PlusROMs\High Score Club" or in "Recently Added ROMs" for the next few days. The combined version can be played online in javatari.js. The ROM-file can also be played with Gopher2600, or the newest version of Stella.

+Al_Nafuur Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 "Spitfire Attack" has been modified for the PlusROM High Score Club. Thanks to the late Kurt Howe (@Nukey Shay) for the commented disassembly and SuperCharger hack. Kurt Howe added a few bug fixes and new features to the original ROM (scanline jitter fix, swap flightstick for a regular stick, autofire mode, 7800 compatibility and switch the road to a river). The original ROM used indexed reads from ZP RAM ( lda ($80,X) ) to waste CPU cycles. Unfortunately this touched the PlusROM hotspots and might also touch the SC hotspots in Kurt's SC hack.

I've tested it several times and the only way my scores are uploaded is when I end the game losing all of my hearts (lives). So that might need looked into?
