Super Subroc Bug

[jblenkle]

I have discovered a graphic glitch bug on some versions of Super Subroc...at least all the copies I have. This is on the DDP image that has the altered ADAM title screen that says, "This software has been released into the public domain...". All disk versions I've tested without the altered ADAM title screen appear to be fine.

 

It occurs right after you destroy this ship on the opening level.

After you destroy it, the screen does this:

 

If you have a DDP image of this game, you might want to check your image to see if it also does this.

If I have time this weekend I'll go over the code and see if I can fix it.

I remember when I first got this game back in 84 or 85 it came in a bulk purchase I bought from a guy who went over to the Amiga.
I had two version that did not work.  I think I was screwing around with it and saved the first 2 or 3 blocks of ddp 1 to a blank tape then the rest from ddp 2 and the thing worked after that.

That would be cool if it can be fixed. I'm wondering if the modification to the ADAM screen had something to do with breaking the game. The version on disk that doesn't have the modified ADAM screen works fine.

I completely dropped the ball on this.

But again, if I can get around to it this weekend.

I would suspect that the only thing that needs to be done is replace the corrupted block with a working version from a donor.
