Albert Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Okay, that's actually pretty cool. Now, HOW DO I GET THE @!#% CART?!!? (Seriously, every year I buy myself an expensive Christmas present...that's going to be this year's. I know, it's not exactly expensive, but 1) money is really tight right now, and 2) whatever the price is, it's definitely worth a huge bundle more.) Patience. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakasama Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 @Baksama - It's funny, I was actually thinking of trying to add some of the NES mazes at one point, but I decided against it. Thanks! Well, that's too bad but at least I can play the NES version anyway. It would've been cool to play the mini and bizzard mazes on the 7800. Keep up the good work.

Chickybaby Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 [Emotional Female] I see many people pointing out faults with the game and wanting more and more, but why?! It's cool to have so many people helping with testing and fixing flaws and doing box designs. Heck PacManPlus is doing it all for the love of the game! I have rarely seen people do this kind of work and put it out in public as it is evolving. It's effing amazing if you ask me and I just wanted to take a moment to thank him deeply for everything.

[/Emotional Female] I agree 100%. I couldn't pull myself from a game of Puck-Man last night (in the quick amount of time I had) in order to play Food Fight (one of my favorite games of all time) in the HSC!

Dauber Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Hell, if PacManPlus declared it "final" three or four bins ago, complete with bugs, I'd still be begging to buy a cart of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickybaby Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Marc, They look absolutely beautiful! The gray/silver border is a nice contrast to the blue imo at least and I love the blue colors in general so it has to be one of my fav label/box combos of all time! Great art again Atariboy!

PacManPlus Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 Hi guys: Sorry I haven't been on, but we have two client conversions running this weekend and I've been working on them. @Chickybaby, 128byts, Dauber, Gregory DG, Breakpack, gambler172, birdie3, baksama et al - thanks for the nice compliments. @Chickybaby - I agree with you - on the box, it is a nice contrast to still have the silver/grey around the picture. @gambler172 - It sounds like you were playing the 'Plus' mode of one of the games. It actually is supposed to happen like that in the 'Plus' version. @Marc - THOSE BOXES LOOK AWESOME! - you have PM And again I have to thank AtariBoy2600 for his awesome work on the graphics and layout, and Brian R. for the text.

BTW updateding the box, label and other for PacManPlus and hope he use it. Yep, your artwork looks really great on a box (although the 7800 number should be 3 - 4 mm more down, it's very close to the top flap). Best, Marc.

Heres the UPDATED one this time the 7800 number are lower so it could not be to high up on the box label. Also PacManPlus ask me to add the AtariAge logo and URL on both the box and manual^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacManPlus Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 Hi Guys: There is going to be a manual, but unfortunately no box.

Trebor Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 (edited) One last thing!!! Nabuko78 released which appears to be the best 5200/7800 color palatte yet. It changes hues beautifully across games in a way which best represents what the actual console displays for those same games. For instance, Ms. Pac-Man (original release), both maze and ghost monster colors are the closest to the actual console than any other palette previously. However, respecting Pac-Man Collection, the leftmost ghost monster's color does not change. It remains that greenish color instead of the more blue hue it should display. Here is some screenshots of Ms. Pac-Man inside Prosystem Emulator which hopefully makes clear what I am stating. First, here are screenshots of both Ms. Pac-Man original release and then in Pac-Man Collection with the default color palette found in Atari 7800 emulators (Including the ProSystem and MESS emulators): Second, here are screenshots of both Ms. Pac-Man original release and then in Pac-Man Collection with Nabuko78's color palette: Take note of which screenshot best represents how Ms. Pac-Man look on an actual 7800 playing Ms. Pac-Man. IMHO, Ms. Pac-Man original release with Nabuko78's palette indeed is the best. On the other hand, the maze color difference is definitely what is intended, and I actually prefer PacManPlus' color/hue choice. However, the leftmost ghost monster color should be more blue than green, no? If the leftmost ghost mosnter's color is purposely set that way, then I completely respect that decision. I'm just trying to help. Hope this post makes sense and is of some assistance. -Trebor P.S.
