Re: Lost in the desert
I'll put some time aside to have a proper look later in the week, then. (You'll probably need to zip up the rzx, as it'll corrupt if attached to the submission form as it is).

Re: Missing Atari 8-bit titles
I'm 99.99% sure these two games are the same (I changed the title in our database to the latter):
http://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C9447/Simple+Adventure.html
http://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C9436/Mini+Adventure.html
That may indeed turn out to be the case, but with different titles ...

Re: Missing Atari 8-bit titles
On a side note, I find it weird that Page 6 is listed as a company for the non-magazine stuff. I don't believe a single non-type-in adventure was ever distributed exclusively through the PD library and most of the titles were just picked up from various sources. For example, Arcade Adventure was ...

Re: Recovered Adventures
Yeah, the game is completable without any additional fixes... There are lots of tweaks that could be made to it to improve the experience, but that's really beyond the scope of a third party, I think...

Re: Recovered Adventures
The use of the holdall and worskhop/contraband routines now involve a little more backtracking to retrieve the bag (outside the workshop) and the go behind the bunk in cell 1 to smuggle out the spoon and the tobacco, which is an nice addition.

Re: Recovered Adventures
Yeah, the holdall is now used to hide any contraband items from the guards. All I need to do is work out how to take items out of the holdall!! (and, indeed, if the author actually programmed that bit in)
Edit: It's GET DRUGS OUT BAG etc.
Contraband items seem to be (looking at the new process 6 ...

Powerstar (Atari)
User Stonic has contributed this partial solution to Powerstar... which seems like it may need the expertise of a couple of Atari adventure experts to help him finish. ;)

Re: Recovered Adventures
Hmm... getting the drugs out of the room with the safe now seems to be problematic. I think I need to look at the side-by-side I did of the two versions of the code to check the changes. :)

Re: Recovered Adventures
I'm afraid the post-playtest version still contains bugs, because at the beginning it's not possible to pick up the large key when the officer has dropped it and left the room. The question "Please state which?" cannot be answered appropriately.
I'll look at doing a proper fix for this version ...

Re: Lost in the desert
Yeah... I logged that particular error a long, long time ago. Still not fixed.
Very quickly looking... my original comments still stand, I think. Once those conditions are met the flag 28 is set by the CLAM BOY event, so that GET BOY can be used to "pick" the boy up.
Will check more later if there ...

Re: Lost in the desert
Okay... I'll dig deeper tonight... there wasn't much time before work this morning... :)
GET BOY EQ 28 5
PRESENT 57
GET 57
MINUS 1 1
MESSAGE 89
DONE
I'll trace the stuff related to GET BOY then and see how it ties into that "CLAMP BOY" event table entry.

Re: Lost in the desert
Having a quick look before work... I think I'll need to go back to this though.
Here's the code for "CLAM BOY"...
CLAM BOY EQ 28 4
EQ 5 50
MESSAGE 74
LET 28 5
Flag 24 is set to 4 when the WATER has been POURed at location 45.
So, I'm guessing the issue will be with Flag 5 being equal to 50 ...

Re: Recovered Adventures
I've played it to the point where I have to open Benson's locker, but even though I have the locker key and I know Benson's name from the puzzle, the locker won't open!
Do you have any idea why?
We've just discovered what seems to be a post-playtest version of The Rock now, so I'm hoping it'll ...

Re: Missing Atari 8-bit titles
On the subject of Atari games, Garry... You mentioned an "official" 2005 version of Graeme Yeandle's Magic Castle recently. Is there a source/reference regarding that official status?
