IIRC, it has a non-standard bank switch scheme and is 40K in size. Try the .a52 file I've attached? Else, Altirra runs it fine.

rubeon Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) 51,300 was trucking along and got to the grain lift thing, and then this bizarre crash happened This happens on the MiSTer every time I reach this level without warping; controller's acting up a bit on the OE, so will have to see if I can reproduce it there This is a tough game to emulate, apparently, as most of my go-to emulators won't even load it. OpenEMU did let me play past this point when I warped there, I'll see if I can work though the game and see if it crashes... EDIT: was able to get further than this on OE, so this particular crash looks like a MiSTer problem Edited April 21, 2023 by rubeon New s**t has come to light, man!

The newer Atarimax SD cart does run it, which is surely what Cafeman was referring to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the rounds marked with OE (original equipment) require original hardware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubeon Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 out of curiosity, if you submit a 0 score do you still get the last place points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
