Schmutzpuppe Posted August 13, 2005 Author Share Posted August 13, 2005 Just out of curiosity, will the final version be using that odd hollowed-out font? 909921[/snapback] I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmutzpuppe Posted August 13, 2005 Author Share Posted August 13, 2005 These files don't seem to work in MESS anymore. No images are recognized in either the BIN or ZIP files, and when you rename FROGGER.BIN to FROGGER.A78, it just crashes the emulation. What am I doing wrong? JR 910189[/snapback] It should run with mess. Maybe you should download a newer mess version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I think the last update only had the bin not the A78 file. MESS requires the A78 version. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I'm not getting any sound Game plays great though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch 910695[/snapback] You are right. I forgot that I only posted the bin I'm not getting any sound Game plays great though. 910728[/snapback] The attached version is with A78 header and works with sound. frogger.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSprinter Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Oh my God.. dude this actually beats out the GENESIS version. I've got to say this has to be what is some of the absolute BEST programming I've seen on the 7800. Seeing you got the graphics AND sound done virtually perfect to the arcade I'd have to say you've truly tapped the 7800's potential of making an exact port of an arcade game. *hehs and would like to see people re-do Ms. Pac-Man, DK, DK Jr. and even make a couple fo the other Pac-Man games using both the TIA sound AND Pokey sound* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uosipa llamxew Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 (edited) Tritto... Err, I mean with me, that makes three. [edit] I finally downloaded the ProSystem emulator and got it to work! As I see it, this is as close as you get to the arcade version that you will get without playing an arcade unit. Unfortunately, I don't hear the music all the way through, but I'm not sure if that is because the ProSystem emulator does not implement a Poky chip or if the game doesn't have all the music. At any rate, and I keep saying this... but, I really need to get myself a 7800 console, if only for the great homebrew releases!

shadow460 Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I had trouble with the sound, too, under ProSystemEMU. That happens with all the games I have. Til today I guess I had an earlier version of this ROM. Today I said what the heack and clicked the file. It's pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmutzpuppe Posted September 21, 2005 Author Share Posted September 21, 2005 Thanks guys. You keep up the motivation Unfortunately, I don't hear the music all the way through, but I'm not sure if that is because the ProSystem emulator does not implement a Poky chip or if the game doesn't have all the music. I am still working on it. The latest release has only the "startup" music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmutzpuppe Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 Here is an updated version of Frogger. This version has more music, more levels and the "speed up timer". The music sounds a bit scratched with the Prosystem Emu, Mess sounds better but unfortunately the top of the display isn't visible. frogger.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch 942166[/snapback] Okay, I changed it to Pokey. Beautiful! This is easily the best classic home version of Frogger I've ever seen I do notice an entire screen flicker every 5-6 seconds or so though.

The last couple of versions I've received have had distortions on my 7800. 942047[/snapback] Which version was the last one that worked for you? And what kind of distortions you see/hear? I really need to buy an NTSC Device... I do notice an entire screen flicker every 5-6 seconds or so though. 942178[/snapback] Did you had the same problem with older versions and do you have PAL or NTSC? Anyone else have this problem?

So it's seems to be a general NTSC issue, it runs fine on my PAL device. The problem is that I don't have to chance to reproduce it Edited October 5, 2005 by Schmutzpuppe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
