He now graces the consoles working on a certain Rally car sim, can't remember which one although Dirt seems to ring a bell. Loved Poltergeist and Thunderbolt on C64 at the time. He went onto be involved in likes of: Pyscho Pinball (Mega Drive) GRID DIRT Forza 1-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice !!! Looking good in NTSC, as well (real HW).. I would only consider a less busy / congested background pattern, so closer-to-foreground objects are rendered with better tonal separation (eg. a bit more dimensional) Keep up the great work !!!

I would second this comment. That is - if you are able to find a better alternative that works better - then do so. The creatures/whatever are lost a bit with that wall/brick pattern - and the white blocks could be done better? If you are able to experiment - find better alternatives that makes the screens/game look better - instead of a straight conversion/copy that doesn't look it's best on this Atari hardware.

Heaven/TQA Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 isnt the Atari 7800 Joypad "standard" for A8 with 2 fire buttons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 It can't be read, both buttons just read as STRIG. I saw an ST mouse mod with changed resistor value (?) that allowed the right button to be read and still work on ST but I don't know if something similar can be done to the 7800 pads.
