Found a 2.00R version and patch (bs21pat6.zip)
But the patch fails to find its EXE ?!?! Found a Russian version of 2.10R (in an ISO) that sort of works IE The game starts --- behind workbench... and the controls have a mind of their own Last edited by Nobby_UK; 04 May 2017 at 01:30. |

It is prob... down to the emulator
In Game it is like keys are pressed (Strafing - How is that done ?) and In Menu like up or down is pressed. [ Show youtube player ] |

Thanks! If the menus work, you can check the Controls in the Game options. Customize has has the current mappings, and if you see garbage there, then you probably copied the config.bs6 file from the DOS game. The config file is not compatible between the two versions, because it wasn't really on my mind to make it so. If deleting config.bs6 fixes the problem, then I'll make it compatible with the dos version, so others won't run into the same problem.

The first update is here. I added a screen mode requester, so the game can be played on RTG screens besides the native chipset modes. It also now uses the default AHI music unit for sound. The text presenter issues are also fixed, now the Story page shows up correctly.
Planet Strike is now also available, it needs the 1.01 registered version, which is the latest one AFAIK. It's a darker, grittier game with fewer but better designed levels. Check out the first post for the links. Last edited by BSzili; 05 May 2017 at 22:02. |

Tested 'Planet Strike' version 1.00
It became 1.01 under your EXE The music was quite Hissy... because it was 16 bit as opposed to the 8 bit of the earlier game ? |

I made a small update for Planet Strike, and doubled the volume of the rendered sounds. Make sure to delete the "adlib" drawer so the sound effects and music gets converted again. This should make the music less noisy.

@BSzili your work is fantastic, I have a lot of your ports on Amiga and also MorphOS.
I'm curious what the porting process is like. Would you ever consider writing a howto or a generalized guide? |

See output grabs (where I got the 16 bit idea)
EDIT Updated --- Not much better Still shows 16 bit in Output Last edited by Nobby_UK; 12 April 2020 at 23:43. |

I see, that's the audio mode. I guess selecting higher quality can improve the AHI mixing, even if the samples are all 8-bit. The latest version uses whatever you select for the Music unit. |

You should not shoot the White Coats
(Some give coins for the food dispenser) unless they shoot at you. Here's what I see : [ Show youtube player ] |

That looks more like it. I made a small update, and removed the double buffering for RTG modes to make it compatible with Vampire screens.
