Soldier of Light

Muzkat · 28 August 2001, 06:25

I'm running Soldier of Light (an old game but a good one) on UAE and it always seems to have a graphic glitich which makes the bottom quarter of the screen flash. It's very annoying. Can anyone else help? I've tried it on various versions of UAE, including the latest release, but it still ain't good. Thanks.

I know your pain, Muz.
I gave up..and tried WinFellow. It works perfectly

I have uploaded a perfectly customized WINDOWED, not full screened, WinFellow for you. Do not adjust ANY settings or configs in regards to disply or RAM, because it'll mess things up.
Try it.
Make sure you place Kick 13 rom in too!!

Is Soldier of Light the coversion of the arcade game "Xain'd Sleena" ?

Twistin'Ghost · 31 August 2001, 08:40

Yes, as a matter of fact, it is. The Technos coin-op appeared in 1986 (the Japanese version Xain'd Sleena) and Taito did the English version, Soldier of Light (as well as publishing the Amiga version in 1988, which was developed by Softek International/Ace).

Has anyone completed this? What am I supposed to do on the 4th level (Dristarg)? I get to a point where it won't scroll any further. According the map on HOL that is the end of the level. But nothing happens and I then run out of time.

Is it last level ?

Yes, it is the last level. Anyway I found it: there is an orange thing on the wall you have collide with first, before going to the end of the level.

I used to play and love the Arcade game back in the day. Never player the Amiga version (had a c64 at the time) but seeing the ports on youtube, they all seem like pretty lazy ports. (Amiga version doesn't look to horrible, but compare the graphics to say Shadow of the beast and you get the idea).
I loved how they made a Run & Gun and a horizontal space shooter so seamless.
Maybe a contender for a Scorpion Engine remake
