Wrathchild Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Hi, As the film was on T.V here in the UK yesterday, it reminded me that in the past I'd looked at the loading routines to see if an AtariMax 8Mb version would have been possible. Instead I have simply hacked in a small routine to offset the appropriate 'disk/side' into the single ATR and remove the message asking to insert the correct disk. Following an online walkthrough I was able to complete the game. There is still work to do as the game save / load to a blank disk that is initialised and detected by the game still needs to be tamed. Therefore you should be able to give this 1st attempt a go using an SIO2PC/SD or other methods of mounting an ATR. Enjoy, Mark DarkCrystal_1stAttempt.zip 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrathchild Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Saving and restoring possible and also with the messages to insert the correct disk (it only using drive 1). I don't feel it is 100% robust so any reports (and steps to reproduce, altstate files etc) welcome. DarkCrystal_2ndAttempt.zip 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari Nut Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Thanks Mark. Have you thought about maybe doing Mission: Asteroid and The Wizard And The Princess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
