Tapper - how do you pick 2 player, or advanced?

[nems]

I'm trying to play Tapper (as converted by kenfused) on the USB multicart. However, the * and # keys do not allow me to change from 1 player to 2 player, nor change from beginner to advanced. Does this work for anyone else? If not, is there a later refined ROM with these options working?

Hmmm. changed a byte. See if this makes a difference.

kenfused thanks for the quick response. Unfortunately still no difference. The # and * do not respond when running Tapper on a real 5200 (I tested on two different 5200's).

I also double checked that my # and * keys are working per Pete's Test cart, so it does not appear to be a user (i.e. controller) error on my part.

 

However, when running Tapper in emulation (Atari800Win PLus 4.0) both keys do work.

That game so needs to be redone though. It just looks so ugly. Vertically separated objects is something the system excels at, I think they could have added a little or possibly a lot more color.

Perhaps you should do it.... on the 7800.

Just tell me the patterns to how the customers come out. I know some levels can be cleared quick or take forever just because you get out of timing and they keep generating.
