Wrathchild Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hi, the Atarimania image is an 'atx' file, therefore a VAPI image requiring a supporting emulator to play it. A cracked version would be useful though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Philsan. Very much appreciated. Allan The instruments panel is re-done. There is now a computer guide that tells you things about your flight. I'm not yet sure what else but I just started playing it. Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twh/f2 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) I have the original boxed game and on the back is written: "Speech synthesis is also included on the Commodore 64 and Atari 8-bit version". But then in the instructor option chapter they write: "The instructor gives you assistance and directions with text messages, and (in the c-64 version only) actual speech." I just checked the C-64 version and the speech synthesis is acually really nice and offers a lot of diversity. Except for the tower-voice, it sounds very similiar to the synthesizer used in the Atari version of Kennedy Approach. The speech could be easily done on the 8bit Atari too, but I guess the Microprose management decided to drop speech of the Atari version in order to support Atari 48kb users too. How I hate that!! It was already 1985 and the game companies still produced games that did not use all the available 64kb :-(( grtx, \twh Edited February 5, 2010 by twh/f2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyBritish Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I have a sealed copy of Kennedy Approach arriving monday..still amazed at how good the speech was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyBritish Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Also have a copy of planet miners on the way from same programmer. Wonder if he wrote nukewar as well. Planet miners is like a stock market simulation except you are trying to mine the solar system so there is the added twist of time between planets etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
