Maybe an emulator could do something >like this easily?? (Of course if it was an impassibly thin river passage, >infinite lives wouldn't happen-- much cooler to just let it scroll and >scroll and scroll) Here's more info on the same. If you change my first patch to be the bytes A9 FF 85 B8 EA EA instead, it'll keep your fuel gauge full all the time. So you can just fly along the left edge of the screen and see all the scenery. (You have to hold the joystick left to keep the plane completely off the screen, and of course you'll wanna hold up to keep it moving faster. Also remember that if you've a fast processor, you can use PCAE and set it to no max frame rate, to scroll through really fast.) In DOS, here's the patch: debug riveraid.bin -e 3E7 A9 FF 85 B8 EA EA -e 562 4C 68 14 -w -q Also, btw, for the Stella list - this appears to indicate that collisions are *not* generated during the HMOVE blank lines, which occupy the entire left edge of the screen. It appears that the enemy planes can fly through the space occupied by the player's plane, but collisions aren't generated because the objects are hidden by the HMOVE blank lines. -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
