Kaz atarionline.pl Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 Charlie Chaplin asked about compatibility with NTSC and required memory. XXL confirmed that game is working on PAL/NTSC with 64 KB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaz atarionline.pl Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 You should add one of those Google translate gadgets like Planet-Atari.de has done. Finally I add the Google translate icon at the bottom of the page, and Google in-page searching engine at the top. Thanks for advice.

More details soon. Count me in for a cart version too ... Looks good ... just wish it would be scrolling .... soft ... would that not be possible? I think it's awesome that there's still things coming for the Atari 8-bit ... love the computer to death ... Take Atarian care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CharlieChaplin Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Hello Kaz, thanks for the info !! I thought the NTSC machines could have problems with the 240 pixels vertically... but maybe only the title screen of Hobgoblin is using it ?!? Afaik even some PAL tv`s have problems with overscan pictures and don`t display the last lines on the top and bottom (I once owned such a buggy/cheap tv, it was a PAL tv by SHARP and could not display overscan pics correctly)... But its great to hear, that this game conversion works with 64k RAM... -Andreas Koch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetboot Jack Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) Ooh - I'd love a cart, when were you thinking of making one available..? sTeVE Edited September 27, 2008 by Jetboot Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irgendwer Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Very nice! The only thing I don't like is the music. It sounds like wrestling the game down and I think it's overkill. IMHO the scrolling is not so tragic. CU Irgendwer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaz atarionline.pl Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) "Almost done" means no big changes in the game. Scrolling is the same as in the original game (Atari version bases on BBC Micro code). It looks worse in YT video than on Atari/emulator. NTSC/PAL issue - according to xxl game is working with both systems, no synchronization problems, etc. However, you will not see full screen on some computers/monitors. It is not a problem - only the title screen has 160x240, main game is working in 160x224 (play area even less).

xxl Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 > Very nice! The only thing I don't like is the music. you can choice between music and sound fx: http://pl.youtube.com/watch?v=lX9jdKzyJ3g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I think the music suits it well... sounds like it's in stereo though, so mightn't be so great on standard machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like in stereo, because stRing is very good musician . However this msx is mono and play correctly on standard Ataris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelen Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 This looks very good ! Can't wait to see and play the game on my own Atari ! Thanks for the translation button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Sounds like in stereo, because stRing is very good musician . However this msx is mono and play correctly on standard Ataris. stRing's usage of pokey is very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
