Thomas Jentzsch Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Thanks to Joseph Di Yorio (The Piper) giving permission, I can now post the ROM of his Ewok Adventure NTSC prototype here which he has found around 1998. If you want to play this one, you have to tell the emulator to use Parker bankswitching (e.g. z26 -n3). Also included in the attached file are two (NTSC and PAL) conversions I made which use standard Atari F6 bankswitching. So it is possible to put them on cart using standard 16K boards. ewok_adventure.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Time for some new CC2 entries! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Time for some new CC2 entries! I already had this on on mine. I don't even know where I got it from either. I just now noticed that it isn't on the AA database. It is an okay game, but not tons of fun or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Now I know where I got it from. It has been posted on the Conversions Page for quite a long time now. Nothing new here exept for the F6 versions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susuwatari Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 So the NTSC version has been dumped for a while now? Last I checked, the NTSC version that has been around for the past few years are actually PAL version hacked to work on NTSC TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I didn't notice that at first, I thought the conversion was converted 100 percent to ntsc. They do look different on the trees from the conversion to the actual ntsc.

sniperCCJVQ Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 IIRC, this was released by Christian Scott more than a year ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 This was released ages ago. So is that the actual NTSC dump or is the conversion? They are quite different when you look at them next to eachother. (e.g. z26 -n3) Actually it is -g3 to set it to parker brothers bankswitch. (-n3 shows the number of lines and the FPS) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscott27 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 nice pic of the cart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
povlok1 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 nice pic of the cart ya, and its already got a glue spot on it,, just like a actual p/b cart:) (lower right corner) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscott27 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 thats an unintentionally authentic touch. i found that over time the labels react with the epoxy used to seal the cart edges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATARI TROLL Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Thank you Thomas for posting although some say this was posted a while back, the downloads you provided work with mac stella 1.1 & 1.2. So again, thanks for posting because that so called this was posted and dumped a year ago didn't work a year ago for the mac users. So thanks for the update!!

Thomas Jentzsch Posted June 8, 2004 Author Share Posted June 8, 2004 So is that the actual NTSC dump or is the conversion? No, this dump is real, making my old NTSC conversion superfluous now. The two bankswitching conversions are based on this new NTSC dump and the old PAL dump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually asking Bushie if that cart was made out of the actual ntsc dump or the conversion you made a while ago.

Mayhem Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 So to clear up here, the 8k BIN is a dump from a real NTSC version of the game and not the conversion to NTSC already available, and the two 16k BIN are turning the two current Parker Brothers banking dumps into Atari F6 versions instead, correct? On a related note, I'm currently putting some new games into MENU.TXT for CC2... is there any easy way to tell if 8/16/32K BIN need F4, F6 or F8 banking (and also with a superchip)?

Exactly. On a related note, I'm currently putting some new games into MENU.TXT for CC2... is there any easy way to tell if 8/16/32K BIN need F4, F6 or F8 banking (and also with a superchip)? No easy way, but there are some indicators. Most games use Atari's bankswitching (8K=F8, 16K=F6, 32K=F4), some companies like Parker, Tigervision, M-Network, CBS and some Activision games use their own bankswitching. For quite complete informations (including extra RAM) check this file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Cheers for that, I suspect most of them are using the Atari banking method so I will check my current file to see what's what. For example Marble Craze = F4 probably...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
