Cave1K crashing

Recommended Posts

Just tested the NTSC version on my PAL JR. Score was sent after every collision and game restarted on button pressed.

?

There a 3 scores from you in the High Score Club list.
https://highscore.firmaplus.de/?game_id=12 (Game Variation: "Moving Walls")

 

Did you played more than 3 attempts?

Is the PlusCart going back to the menu, or how does it crash?

Also the time diff between the first two attempts is 2 seconds, are you sure you reloaded the game between these two attempts?

I tried three times.

Each time, as I crashed (there was a collision)... the atari crashed.  Screen corrupt/no frame formed.

It was a basic complete lockup/crash with complete garbage on the screen.

As to the timing -- I do not recall, sorry.

More info on this.

Of my 3 PlusCarts, one with version 0.15.4 works perfectly every time.

The other two, with versions from DEV, both fail every time. 

When there's a collision the screen goes all glitchy -- and eventually totally crashes.  See video.

Could this be the 4K/32K ESP8266 buffer size difference?

Can you update the 2 dev PlusCarts to v0.15.7

OK, I selected "upgrade firmware" and it never returned from the spinner screen (about 3 mins)

this usually happens when the first byte of the firmware VCS ROM has changed..
0xD8 must always be the first byte of firmware_xxxx_rom arrays..

Noted, but I have not touched this and I'm sure you haven't either.

So, in this case it must have been some other cause.

Not a big issue - my cart upgraded OK.
