  1. I am offering my point of view. Stop going after me as a person. I respect you and your coding skills and you seem like a really nice person. If this is an exercise to hone your coding skills, or you are having a lot of fun coding this game, keep on going. If you think you are fulfilling a missing niche in the Atari 2600 catalog, you probably aren't.
  2. I never coded an Atari game, but I coded a mod for Tribes 2 about twenty years ago. I also ran the game servers and moderated the PHPBB forums for the community. I was in my 30s at the time and I was dealing with a lot of teenagers. I developed a lot of patience and a thick skin when dealing with very emotional players.
  3. I thoroughly enjoyed the Parker Brothers' version of Frogger. I kept playing it even after I got the nearly arcade-perfect SuperCharger version. Atari's Pac-man was a rushed mess, and I didn't care for it. Remaking that was a lot more understandable, especially after we saw was capable with Ms. Pac-man. I also liked the remake of Defender that was sold by AtariAge. I am still curious as to what @splendidnut comes up with, but I will be judging it against the Parker Brothers and SuperCharger versions. Both of those versions were very important in my youth, so I may be a bit harsh.
  4. Is it possible to make a reproduction of a SuperCharger game using a Melody Cart? I was able to play the Starpath version of Frogger on my Harmony Encore, but not sure if that automatically means it can be burned onto a Melody Cart. Thanks.
  5. Can you put the SuperCharger version on a melody cart? I can run the game on my Harmony Encore. Does Melody Cart count as extended hardware?
  6. Maybe @Albert will pop in and give us a ruling on a Melody cart of a SuperCharger game.
  7. It is intermittent with me. Sometimes a .bin file is blocked for me, sometimes not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  8. I appreciate the effort and I am impressed with your coding chops. But we don't need another Frogger. It is possible to make a cartridge out of the SuperCharger version if that is the goal.
  9. I don't think it is the .bin extension because it is intermittent. Some kind of signature within the file, probably.
  10. It's a problem with the browser, not with the file. The same thing is happening with the Paddlefield game. I get a false positive with both Firefox and Chrome. Firefox lets me bypass the warning.
  11. Fantastic! On to game variation 9. The folks behind this did a wonderful job. Judging by the winky emoji, I suspect you know why... 😁
  12. Hey, thanks! I just had to find the modded roms. Currently 17th on Berzerk. It's a shame you can't force a game variation on players. I can play game variation 1 on Berzerk for forever.
  13. I just got a PlusCart. How do I generate an HSC postfix so I can log in to the high-score club page?
