Kr0tki Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) I would contact the author if I could do it.I'm sure some on the AtariArea forums would help in contacting him. I will try to get permission of Janusz Pelc when 7800 version will be ready - but Avalon already made it open source.IANAL, but the fact Avalon allowed publication of the sources, does not mean that anyone is allowed to use these sources to create derivative works, whether commercially or not. Now I don't know the details behind the release of the sources, I guess Stryker from AtariArea should know better. Ask him if you care (I probably would not ) I still need to write 5200 keypad handler - game is playable now, but "suicide" button still not work on real hardware Do you know the "PAM package"? On page 19 there's a guideline that says RESET should be used to return to main screen. You have designated RESET as the suicide button in the on-screen manual. To keep it alike other 5200 games, the suicide button should be moved to another button, maybe Start? More ideas to consider: - add the Pause functionality, - allow moving with 2/4/6/8 in addition to the joystick, as in the 5200 Frogger. Robbo doesn't move diagonally, so it might be useful for some, considering the great reputation that the 5200's non-centering joystick is known for. - will you retain the title-screen cheat code functionality?

tdididit Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) Janusz doesnt care about it. I was talk with several people and every told the same I get permission for use Robbo Forever, I have our pemissions for use Robbo code what we get for Alex game I think it is enough - need to be I didnt seen before PAM package but there is nothing what could be usefull for me :/ btw. thanks for your english translation. I will send you final version game binary when both versions will be done - now i am focused on 7800 port Edited May 19, 2016 by tdididit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdididit Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 I found "the bug" in my keypad routine. It was a keypad - in both 5200 controllers I borowed from JVas So I assembled joystick adapter with keypad... The question is why middle of pots is at value $40 not at $72 as is in emulators ? ($40 is a POT value picked for GALAXIAN - was keep player in same place) in zip file my simple tool what shows zero page and 2nd page values - I am using it for joy device calibration a52-joytest.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdididit Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) not much but lot of cutting & patchwork i will build one more in different box to fit membrane matrix on flat surface and one with real keypad Edited June 17, 2016 by tdididit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0078265317 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Nice, also looks like a 9 pin on the other end of the adapter. Is it and if so why not 15 pin. Orther wise looks like a masterplay clone. Edited June 17, 2016 by 0078265317 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
