Heaven, this is such a nice game !! great port !

 

I've tried charpad (i saw you used it) and it's great to design charactersets with rotating etc !

If only Charpad supported different tile sizes than just 4x4...

Macro Edit supports user-defineable tile sizes.

Well, but that one is not a native PC program with intuitive GUI.

i just realised that i got tearing of the background in atari800win in ntsc? can US guys double check on real hardware?`thanks...

 

 

Well, I didn't get the screen to tear, but it did crash. A few times when I hit a wall, the ship would jump to the far right of the screen. The text at the top of the screen would color cycle, and the text at the bottom would not. After restarting the game, I crashed into the left side of the wall on level one, and the game froze (sound stuck, and the screen was rolling).

 

Sorry I can't give more detail.

 

EDIT

 

Odd - hitting reset rebooted the machine, but the screen was still rolling and the background was a greenish orange. I had to power cycle the machine to get the game to reload.

 

EDIT #2

 

It seems that every time I crash into the left side of the wall in level one, the game locks up. I'm playing on an NTSC 130XE.

Thanks Stephen,

 

anybody here to whom i can give the source code + data files? this person could make a ntsc adaptation as in atari800win ntsc the game does not have any difficulties... so a guy with coding experience + real ntsc hardware would help here.

 

volunteers?

Wish I could help, but it has been over 15 years since I coded on my little 8-bit (damn - I am starting to feel old). I have started working on a project, but won't make any announcements until I have pretty complete working code.

You don't need to be a C64 guy to know that ;)

Yeah - reason I didn't do Thalamusik is because the A8 already has a version by hubbard himself :)

So you can try for example Chimera or The Last V8 ;-)

Wait - i try it, anyway! :)

 

------

 

It won't run, coz you are trying to run it from $f000, that is probably the problem.

 

To place data uder ROM, you can do as i did on the picture.

 

Additional data can be added to the file after ROM-RAM procedure.

 

This file is attached, too!

 

Ok, i'm still not a coder. ;)

 

SORRY - WRONG ATTACHMENT - now it's OK!
