    Why not maake your own chapter in the swordquest series

    or make a hack of megamania with spaceinvaders Characters?

    though the latter would be very hard due to lack of sprites! :D  8)

     

    You mean like this??

    Ah...but are they ethical? :ponder:

     

     

     

    Back during the Commodore 64 days I was one of the biggest pirates on the East Coast. (Captain Zap/BBS Forbidden Planet). When I look back at that, Yes, that was un-ethical. I was stealing brand new copy-righted content and distibuting it for financial gain.

     

    With Hacking, I have stated all along that I do it for fun and not for financial gain. Each Hack that I have released on cart was actually done as a financial loss. Along the way I have stepped on a few toes of other Hackers but I have gone out of my way to seek their OK after building on their previous work. I would never release a Hack of a new ORIGINAL Homebrew out of respect for the author ( who is most likely a member of this community at AA). I do have Hacks of most of the Homebrew games for my personal use, but will not release them.

     

    If an author of an old Atari game asked me to pull a hack of their game, then I would do it immediately. Rob Fulop of Demon Attack fame is my favorite progammer of the Atari era, when I was doing my first ever Hack Extinction! I tried to get an OK from him before releasing it and never recieved a reply. So you see, it's all Rob's fault for not stoping me at the very beginning!! :)

     

    Man I rambled a little bit there...

    Hacking. Is it un-ethical? Maybe in a few cases. Over-all it's just more of a gray area.

     

    BTW. I do own original copies of all of the games I have hacked. I no longer pirate software and probably have one of the largest original game collections around.

    Thanks for the offer man ill just try to calm down so like your sure that IPS patches are legal?

     

    oh well ive PMd tempest and the site administrator about this so if the thread gets killed ill probably start another :)  

     

    Thanks man im gonna try to get some sleep!

    mojofltr please im really getting depressed now ive had no sleep and probably wont get any unless u dont stop

     

    :???:

     

    I don't really know what the problem is, but it is nothing to get so worked up about. Just go to my website below, it is filled with Atari 2600 Hacks and I have'nt lost 1 sec of sleep.

     

    Check around, Space Invaders is the most common game to Hack. I have collected over 30 Hacks based on Space Invaders alone. I have never heard of one person having any troble posting a Hack. (Unless it is from another Hacker :roll: ).

     

    I don't know who you are getting your info from (or how old you are), but this seems like a big over-reaction and some of the other guys are just having some fun with you(with you, not at you).

     

    You're Space Invader Hack was a very well done job, it's a shame that it looks like we won't be seeing anything else from you.

     

    If you want some black and white answers to some questions about hacking, you can e-mail me and I'll give you some info.

    Just trimmed out nearly a page of memory.

    As you can see, the program was ALWAYS sending a value to the volume and distortion registers (even when no frequency was being played).  The added instructions will skip over those, and clear the sound :)

     

    I always wonderred about that.

    Intellivision Lives!.....But for how long?

     

    You control a fleet of mobile Intellivision Blasters at the bottom of the screen, under constant attack by wave after wave of Atari Bad Guys. Your goal is to accumulate points by knocking out as many Atari Enemies as possible, before your fleet is destroyed.

    Can the Intellivision Fleet survive the onslaught of Atari?

     

    Can you name the enemies on each level?

     

    Just a warning, I have made it more difficult.

    so, this is still WIP, right?

     

    When I get some free time I will convert the rest of the colors.

     

    It's really funny, instead of finishing this one I have made different version with characters from other games. I have Pac-Attack(Pac-Men attacking a Ghost),Ghost Attack(obviously the reverse of the first one), Have A Nice Day(Frown faces attacking a happy face), Ford VS Chevy (Truck Wars), New color version of Headhunter(Skulls attacking a headless Skeleton), Fuji Fighter(Atari symbols attacking), Space Invaders the Real Sequel(what Galaxian really is). And a few more that are so wrong that I won't mention them.

     

    See, I really do spare you guys from a lot of my bad hacks. Well, most of them. :ponder:

    I have been getting a few e-mails about missing out on the Hacks that I offer on cartridge. If you want to guarantee yourself a copy, just sign the Guest Book at my website. I will e-mail all members first about a new release before it is offered anywhere else. I may be able to offer a few more Death Race Cart and Death Race DVD packages to members in April(5 or less).

    Allright, I could'nt help myself. I started fooling around with Galaxian to make a Vector Version. I really don't have the time to go thru all the code, so here is what I have. If someone can finish converting all the colors to green, please do. Or just post the locations if they are known.

     

    Need to change:

    Score Color

    Bullet Color

    Lives Remaining Color

    and get rid of the red eyes

    The color on the game over screen that has the Galaxian can be changed also.
