    To use Paypal you have to have a checking account or credit card on file with them anyway, so without or without paypal you'd have to have one of the above anyway...

     

    Sorry, just cannot accept paypal and will never go near it ever again, no exceptions.

    OK. I just prefer PayPal but credit card is fine for me as well. Four units for Czech Atari Strike Force ordered!

    MidiMaze file version

    in Atari 8-Bit Computers

    Posted

    Hi all!

     

    I have been asked several times if file version of MidiMaze for 256kB machines is possible. The answer is YES and I'm willing to create it but I would really need some help this time as I don't have 850 interface nor XM301/SX212 modems. Can anybody here help me with some tests on real HW? You would need two machines with at least 256 kB of expanded memory plus proper interface...

     

    Anyway, I'm not 100% sure but I would like to make clear this simple question: how many computers could I connect with 850 interface or XM301/SX212 modems? I suppose just two. Or am I missing something?

     

    And one more question. Did anybody ever tried MidiMaze in network mode using 850 interface or XM301/SX212 modems? I know Midimate ring works perfectly as I played this great game using Midimate interfaces but I have no idea if other network modes are fully implemented as well. Any info would be greatly appreciated...

    RAM 320XL

    in Atari 8-Bit Computers

    Then again, with the RAM320XL you allways get a 320kB of total memory.

    Except in those cases where the jumper is removed and the base RAM is switched out. icon_smile.gif

     

    I think that you still don't get it...

    Hidden invincibility in Planet Smashers found!

    in Atari 7800

    Posted

    OK. After some dissasembling, branstorming and many tries I found hidden invicibility mode in Planet Smashers (as Mitch asked me some time ago).

     

    And now how to do that step by step (tested in emulator and on real PAL HW as well):

     

    1) insert very carefully your Planet Smashers cart into console ;-)

    2) set left difficulty switch to the right position and right difficulty switch to the left position

    3) hold Pause and power console on

    4) just relax, listen to great title screen music :rolling: and wait for toplist screen

    5) wait for 4th best score to appear and then you must set left difficulty switch to the left position and right difficulty switch to the right position simultaneously :mad:

    6) text "Planet Shmashers.... Programmed by: James V. Zalewski Datafast Computer Services 1989" should appear and hidden invicibility mode should be active.

     

    Many thanks to GroovyBee for some useful informations about switchable 7800 carts.

     

    Enjoy!

    P.S. Hey, we really need 7800 emulator with build-in monitor!!

    File version of Mean 18? Yes!

    You rock Fandal.

     

    Thanks so much for doing this. Hopefully someday you could do Midimaze as well.

    Yes, it is possible to create file version of MidiMaze. But I don't have any Atari modem or Midimate interface so I'm not able to test all functions of any conversion and I don't want to release something unfinished. :(
