Re: [hatari-devel] Falcon demos tests : part 1

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/hatari-devel Archives ]


Finally, I've taken some time now to test with hatari 1.4.

Bound4 : no change between the 2 versions of hatari (but I'm pretty sure I've seen a version of all bounds demos working with a previous version of hatari)


Bound 5 under hatari 1.4 : it displays a logo "Bound 5"  and then a picture with an animal appears and the demo start to play a music (but no bounding ball). I didn't have to press any key between the logo screen and the animal + music screen.


With current version of hatari : I first thought it was freezed on a white screen with pixels garbage, but after 1 minute or so, the picture with the logo "Bound 5" appeared. It never switched to the animal image and there's no music played (and no bounding ball).

I've tested another time, the logo screen appeared after 3 or 4 minutes (I pressed "Space" and "Enter" at least 2 or 3 minutes before, so I don't know if this is needed to have the logo displayed, I think it's not necessary). It seems to never go to the animal + music screen

It looks like a timing or a trigger behave differently with the 2 versions of hatari.

I've tested your version of bound (I didn't have it) and just like you, it works if I press "Enter" but doesn't if I press "Space".

I've tested bound4 and bound5 but "Enter" doesn't work with these 2 demos.

I think these 2 demos were working with previous versions of Hatari. I'll check tonight.

For bounce demo :

My PRG is called : BOUND_FA.PRG  (70588 bytes) )

I've done a git pull and make before launching it.

I'm using the version linked/listed in
pouet.net & demozoo (72044 bytes):
http://falcdemos.atari.org/archive/crac/1993.bound/bound.zip


I've got the bouncing ball with a mapped girl.

That version has Marvel character in the ball,
although demo screenshot in pouet.net has
something else (probably girl like you said).


Once, I had 2 bombs at the end, when I pressed space. The demo didn't return to the desktop.

But I've retested a few times and couln't reproduce this.

Here is my hatari.cfg file if this can help.

Thanks!  On first try with your config, the demo
worked, next ones it didn't.

After trying it many times, my conclusions are:

* If one presses Space key to proceed from text
  screen to actual demo, very often it freezes

* But by using Enter key instead it seems to work
  reliably

I've added note about this to compatibility doc.


FYI: I always use Space key, unless otherwise
noted in compatibility list.  What about you?

Does your Bound version work reliably also with
Space key?
