Space crusade A1200 version

Galaxy · 10 August 2005, 08:12

See the third disk scan at http://hol.abime.net/2021/diskscan

Anyone know if there was actually an A1200 version of this game?

CodyJarrett · 10 August 2005, 08:32

If I remember rightly, Space Crusade always had compatibility issues with the A1200. This might be a fixed version.

kriz · 10 August 2005, 12:47

yeah, i never got it too work properly on my a1200, now with whdload it does though ...

btw. What is this a1200 version?

Galaxy · 10 August 2005, 13:39

It was contributed to the hol. Can't remember by who though...

As CodyJ says it is likely to be a fixed version - I certainly am unaware of there ever being an AGA version of the game

Methanoid · 11 August 2005, 10:27

No, no extra versions. Was not AGA compatible until that nice NOMAD man released a AGA patch to the "scene" and no doubt now works fine via WHDload as everything seems to....

So explain that disk labelled A1200 version then?

Enverex · 11 August 2005, 14:21

Homemade copy of the game with a neat printed label...

kriz · 11 August 2005, 14:54

then shouldnt it be deleted from the hol ?

Galaxy · 11 August 2005, 23:57

I doubt it is a homemade label myself

andreas · 12 August 2005, 02:09

I doubt it too

So; any news...!?

I'm just playing Aga fixed version of Space Crusade
on my vanilla A500; and find it not to be combatible
with the Extension disk ?!
Btw; How to actually Save a game state..?!
I completed the first mission; even with my whole
party dying. ( the score was about 280 ?)
Anyway; when I selected the next mission,
I had to re-select my team (Imperial Fists),
and the game had "forgotten" the case of my team dying
(Same names again) ?

as in the manual there is no reference about this A1200 disk, i think it was a fixed disk to run the game also on A1200 and higher.

macce2 · 04 May 2022, 03:42

Ok, once again; stupid me !
I have played the game a little many years ago;
but didn't remember how to access the disk options menu.
You'll have to select one of the three Mariner groups first.
Only after that the little decoration looking(!) image / icon
On the upper part of selection screen comes alive and you can
access a new menu.

Nope.

I would suggest it was a compilation version, company who licenced it from Gremlin, tested it barely on a1200, decided "it works" and highlighted it with writing a1200 on the disks.

Probably also put a sticker on the box

Unless Gremlin released a bespoke AGA version, they didn't fix anything for a1200, because I offered to do that for them, but they turned me down flat, but they did ask if I was prepared to complete PM3 Deluxe for them instead.
