It was really like this: "Has Sound*" *does not have sound

I posted this in the old thread, but I don't know if anyone saw it. Or they saw it and did not care Here it is again, just for good measure: -Norby

LOLwut? Are we still worrying about this? All shall be revealed: -Billy

Which part was the ET pit scene?

I like it mchenry. I found this though: http://www.geekfridge.com/images/MoltenCoreCartridge2600.jpg I wish they would get it straight. Is this black label or red label game? The world needs to know. -Billy

Quick technical analysis: The splash screen seems to have been done using a standard 6-sprite-wide technique with color changes between each item. Looks ok, but it must take up a ton of ROM. This must be a bankswitched game. Also, the flames under "Molten Core" kind of look like a dead chicken with 6 legs. I think Sulfuras, the Hand of Ragnaros is at least recognizable on the bottom there. Playfield from top to bottom: Names: Looks like the sprites were put into x2 mode, positioned next to one another and then updated during the scan lines to draw the names. The fade effect from top to bottom is decent. Stat Bars: Looks like it uses the same setup as the the names, as they are suspiciously the same width as the name. Again, a fade effect with different base colors Big Gold Bar: Not sure what that monstrosity is about. Could be used to hide artifacts from the sprite repositioning, and an attempt to make it look nice during a bunch of burned scan lines. Playfield: Clearly using a mirrored playfield. If you look closely at the screenshots, you can see that the center playfield part (PF2) is the same on the left and right. This probably makes it so you don't have to updated PF2 twice during the scan line and gives you a little more time to work out if the players and/or monster is enabled. It should also save memory. These rooms must be memory hogs as well. Players: Must be using the ball graphics. Monsters: Using one of the sprite graphics, note it is the same color as one of the ball/player graphic. This means you could easily add pairs of monsters. Shouldn't the Majordomo and Garr have minions? XP/Rep bars: Looks like playfield graphics with overlaid sprites the same color as the background to give it a separated appearance. Flame Graphics: Don't know how those were done, really nice looking animations though, it must be hella-flickery on a real machine, though appropriate for gflames. Bears: Wow, 7 bears, with graphics in a different color appearing over them to indicate aggro. Must be really flickery as well on a real machine. Looks like there is a playable game in there. I wonder how far along the game logic really is. Can't wait to see the Beta. -Billy

I put the 2003 cart up there just to torture you I guess I missed the 2004 cart somehow. -Billy

Now that I look at it, it is a Taiwan Sixer, thought I had taken it apart and saw the big aluminum shield, but I could be mistaken. -Billy

A Sunnyvale heavy-sixer: S.N. 73643F A Sears heavy-sixer: 82074216 True story: My mother sent me the Atari heavy-sixer from a garage sale or some such. It came with a nice original joystick and Combat and Video Olympics in the original gate fold boxes, along with all the cords, all in really nice condition. When I called her to thank her for it I told her it was great, the only way it could have been better if it had been in the original box. She then told me she had thrown away the original box to pack it in something smaller.

Tree Hugger is kind of on hold, unless some other homebrew authors want to help me out with some of the screens. "Pave the Greenbelt" is about 50%, "Whale Sport" stands at about 20%, "Spotted Owl Hunting" and "Oil Spill" are really just vaporware. And besides, I really want to do a port to the Atari 2600 of the TI/99 Parsec next. Billy

Actually fixed this time... -Billy
