Hi, community,
I took the time to apply some long promised changes to Elite Advanced. Please have a look at the CARE page for more informations. The Whdload slave will be released soon. Have fun. - NEW: statistics page implemented (options) - NEW: trainer implemented (options) - NEW: colours of stars changed - NEW: delay for galatic hyperjump changed from 30 to 10 seconds - NEW: the library (options) is now "built-in" - NEW: WHDLoad slave available - FIX: bug of original version fixed: stars in right/left view have moved up/down the wrong way - FIX: "ADV" logo in main menu is smaller now (e.g. problems in galactic chart) |

Superb work, I just downloaded it and made an adf of it and was about to upload it to the zone...
somebody already done it! ![]() Again nice work, I don't really play Elite much but it's great to see a project like this continue and produce such professional (and fully working/stable) results. Cheers man. I'll give it a better test once that whdload slave comes my way ![]() Last edited by AmiGer; 08 September 2005 at 12:52. |

Please read the FAQ on my page.
Only the CARE patch files are for free. Not the whole adf/ipf with the original game. |

Good work AmiGer! I remember talking about this last January in 2004. The stats make it refreshing especially if you pick up the same game after a long break.

Is there a way to use the on a disk saved commander with the
whdload-version? I can't find a file on the savedisk. Thanks, Daniel |

Found a way ... perhaps.
It is stored in track 2, sector 0..10 for the first saved commander. I dumped all the sectors into single files with TrackEd an reassembled them with "Join" into "EliteAdvancedSave" . Unfortunatelly Elite hangs after loading this file. Filesize looks good, 5632 (512x11) Bytes, content looks good. Any Ideas?
Thanks, Daniel Last edited by DNA; 13 September 2005 at 21:50. Reason: Information Update |

You're just one step away from the solution:
in the original Elite the last 244 bytes (before the last byte=checksum) of each saved game are xor-ed by a descending value $F3, $F2, ... I disabled this and the checksum check in the slave. I think that's why your system hangs up. I will post a workaround for this the next days. |

It's in the Zone now. I hope it's the correct disk image.

Why was the galactic hyperdrive dropped from 30 to 10 secs? There was a good reason for that!
Not likely to get an answer though after all this time! D. |

You can change it by leaving the save disk in DF0: and saving a new commander. Last edited by Arnie; 21 January 2016 at 12:56. |
