PacManPlus Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thanks, Supercat - those two changes you did are definately awesome I'm sorry I wasn't able to figure out what happened with the scanner, although it was odd that it only happened on the real thing. :-/ Also, I think I have the PAL version complete. Like I said before, I did a 'diff' between the NTSC Stargate and the PAL stargate and just applied the same changes to my ASM file. Could someone from PAL land give this a try? Thanks!

PacManPlus Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 I am able to make 5 NTSC Defender Arcades for anyone who wants to purchase them: http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=120304 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacManPlus Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 I see six people so far downloaded the PAL version of Defender Arcade - anyone find any issues? Thanks, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrofan Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I currently can't test it on real hardware because I'm waiting for an empty 8K cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacManPlus Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Ok thanks - just so you know, this is a SARA Chip game (added memory) - it won't work on a standard 8K board... I was hoping someone who has a PAL CuttleCart / CuttleCartII would be able to test it... Thanks again, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Are you talking to me?!! What are the settings and I will fire it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacManPlus Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) Hey Mimo - Not directly, I was hoping that anyone with those carts would reply I don't have the Cuttle Cart II settings in front of me (I'm at work) but they should be the same as the NTSC 8K version (F8SC). Thanks! Bob *EDIT* - Misspelling Edited January 28, 2008 by PacManPlus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimo Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Yeh, sorry the colours are slightly different, but that is par for the course with PAL Also I am comparing NTSC s-video with PAL rf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrofan Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 If I want to make a cart of Defender Arcade (PAL) for myself (I hope it's allowed), what do I need? What kind of original Atari cart can I use (SARA or SC) and what is to do beside burning the 8K-eprom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacManPlus Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 Hi: You need a specific eprom board to do this. That is why I am limited to how many I can make. Those boards (that take an Eprom, SARA chip, and GAL) are at the moment not being made. So I'm scrounging up everything I can get to make 10 more.

cosmosiss Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Are we making another run? I'd love one if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telengard Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 (edited) Finally got around to trying this out tonight and all I can say is WOW (and no flicker yay!). If only this is what I had got in June of '81, who knows what might be different. thanks for all the hard work, I'm really enjoying this. ~telengard Edited November 30, 2008 by telengard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Sorry for bumping a old thread, but I was thinking about this hack earlier. I was curious if the new scanner and title screen were ever implimented in this if anyone figured out how to do it? Also, I always liked RT's idea of a ship explosion when you die, I'd love to see someone do something with that someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacManPlus Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Thanks guys I'm wondering, being that so much stuff was removed to make Defender Arcade, if I could get rid of the need for 'SARA' and make this a standard cart. I need some way to figure out what the extra memory was used for. This way, there's no need for special carts. Once I'm done with Frenzy I may revisit this again to see if it's possible.

GideonsDad Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 This was probably already mentioned on a previous page but I downloaded the most recent .bin (I think) and all I see when attempting to play this in Stella is the title screen, then the radar and one "citizen" at the bottom otherwise the screen is blank GideonsDad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
