Crab attack II is really hard. It's a mouse destroyer of a game, so I recommend playing on a laptop where you can freely tap on a trackpad without fear of destroying a mouse button.
I got to the trilobytes in beach 2 and still have no idea how to get past them. I asked the developper Andrew...
I've ruled that out fairly quickly, I know about this and have to do it with my SE (pre analog board full recap, haven't tested after recap) buy not with my classic 1 (pre full analog board recap...still have to do that one).
I'll disassemble my pb170 fully and check for bad stuff. So far...
The solution was proposed by the project lead on his website:
I had to stop using emumode.txt on my uSD card - all I had to do was delete this entirely from the root folder level of my uSD card. This is in conflict with the way you select the boot mode with the physical device interface.
I also have a copy of Mouse Stampede 1 somewhere on my disks. It was a simply drag and drop copy, not the original commercial disk. It might lay somewhere in one multiple game diskette, or inside one of my failed hard disks. I was surprised to see Mouse Stampede v2 that late in the era (1994?!)...
CHECK THAT NASTY S
Still getting a chime + gray pattern + no ''?' diskette icon behavior (no external SCSI either), both before and after doing the double recessed reset for 10s.
Simply transporting the HD30-SCSI25-OvereasyII-BlueSCSI assembly I have from the non-working PB170 to working PB180 proves that it's not that issue. I made sure I was able to boot my Mac Plus with it, as well as have the HD image mount from my PB180.
That's possible, but wouldn't you still...
Can't seem to give my PB170 interesting boot options. The internal HD is dead.
PB180 Behavior:
Everything works instantly with my PB180 (same power adapter, same external bluescsi assembly, working internal HD though).
PB170 Behavior, initially:
w/ external BlueSCSI plugged in: I got a gray...
Go watch it. A lot of very young kids watched it back in the day when they were 2-7 years old only to be trapped by truly tragic and grown up themes throughout the movie. Many people report being marked by that film, in a mostly good way.
Process for graphics: I use Photoshop CS 2 to convert to...
✅THINK C was used
✅Studio Session was used
✅Discouraged alternate buffer hack was used
Thanks to @Crutch and @YMK over on this thread: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/scrnbase-and-its-alternate-screen-address.2299/page-2#post-19807
I was able to squash my bugs regarding a fast switching...
It's not a game engine yet, but it could be.
No, I was working (for now) on a sing-along type app for The Last Unicorn's theme song.
It follows the song at the syllable level. The graphics are changed with screen flip so as to never show any weakness in the graphic speed department.
I'll made...
