Cannon Fodder - differences between versions ? - Page 2

BippyM · 13 April 2007, 13:14

screenshots guys.. post screenshots of the diff versions

Anubis · 13 April 2007, 15:18

Why do you need them?

killergorilla · 13 April 2007, 15:38

HOL only has conversion shots for 4 systems, the more the better!

Anubis · 13 April 2007, 15:44

I can do a lot of shots for some games on other systems, just need to know what (what size, format etc.) and whom to send it.

killergorilla · 13 April 2007, 15:51

Well they need to be done in their original size, check games such as Shadow Of The Beast ane Lemmings as they have a lot of conversion shots.

Anubis · 13 April 2007, 16:03

That shouldn't be a problem. WHo to send images too? (Belg?)

killergorilla · 13 April 2007, 16:09

Belg doesn't mind adding conversion shots because it doesn't involve any editing

Just don't ask him to add a PD game

Anubis · 13 April 2007, 16:13

Thanks for good idea!

Speaking of Cannon Fodder, last night I tried SPS version (860) and with WinUAE 1.4.1 sound gets weird and it crashes before it asks for 2nd floppy.

WHDload version works fine, so I played first 4 missions.

How many levels are there in total for this game?

killergorilla · 13 April 2007, 16:35

What settings did you have Anubis? SPS titles can be very strict on which setup they will and won't work on.

Anubis · 13 April 2007, 16:47

Plain A500 setup with 512 chip + 512 slow ram, KS1.3. (tried quick set also)

With WinUAE 1.3.2 sound gets better, but still didn't work.

I tried couple other things, but couldn't get the game to work.

Can someone else try it?

That's what I do, Belgo's da man

He hates me for all the FM Towns screenshots I keep sending him for HOL inclusion... I can't help it, anytime I get a new game that is also available on Amiga I send 'em

You should have cpu compatible ticked and also use 1mb chip.

Anubis · 16 April 2007, 13:39

That 1mb chip fixed it.

Thanks Belg!

The GameBoy Color version isn't bad. The intro is, in fact, better than the PC one. The presentation and technology for the intro, menus, all that razz, is utterly superb - it's exceedingly well put together. The gameplay suffers a bit from new tweaks, such as if you lose all of your soldiers (and you can only have a max of two at a time) new ones will parachute in at the same location, which means if you're careless you can get through all of your recruits in one particularly tedious mission. It's annoying, and it let me down. I'd probably give it a 7 out of 10 (compared to the Amiga version, which gets a 9).

Here is a list of all SNES Mouse games.

Wiki is great resource. Thanks for the link.

Hmmm I am using Snes9x v1.5 for Mac OSX (I know 9x for mac heh) and the mouse moves around and pans, but the guys don't move or shoot. Using both ports on the emulated Snes, Jools and Joop die early deaths
