Revision as of 11:52, 13 April 2006 by Eriktorbjorn (talk | contribs) (Updated with the latest FW findings. (The game is completable now, by the way.))

Notes

  • FW is completable (albeit currently only if the copy protection is activated), OS is not.
  • There are a couple of known glitches in FW:
    • Sprites are often not masked properly.
    • In some places, restoring a savegame does not properly restore all the graphics. The first example of this is the office when the map is shown.
    • When opening the secret passage early in the game, the "hero" sprite is drawn in the upper left corner.
    • Menu colors are wrong during the intro. Possibly in other places as well.
  • The INVENTORY command is not implemented.
  • The savegame user interface is incomplete. Savegames cannot be named.
  • OS exists in 2 version: a low-color (atari) and a hi-color (PC).
  • CinE has only been tested with the PC versions.
  • There is a hack in CinE to bypass both FW and OS protection screens. FW bypass is made by booting the auto00 inlined in the code, OS is bypassed by forcing a specific value in the engine (this is the actual methode used to restart the game while not returning to the protection screen)
  • Cruise for a corpse is not supported by cinE, but by cruisE, an independent engine
  • Savegames are not compatible with the original PC version.
  • Only the Adlib music is used so far, but a MT-32 track is available in the resources
