Prince of Persia

[drfloyd]

should a create the committee for PRINCE OF PERSIA 3.5 compatible ?

[tricky]

It would be nice to have it run on the Compact and also from SSD

[drfloyd]

the committee for PRINCE OF PERSIA "Final Edition" grow up !!!!!

Well it seems like I can hardly let the POP fans down now, can I?

This is a Release Candidate for version 1.2 that hopefully works with MOS 3.5 and Master Compact. I hesitate to call it a fix, more a massive hack so any testing on real hardware would be gratefully received before I update the official version on the Bitshifters prod page. Please let me know if you find any problems!

For those interested, it seems that DFS 2.45 does use more of Hazel than the regular Master DFS, specifically it looks at certain values placed in page &DA00 to determine whether DFS is active or not, and therefore whether to bother servicing the call to OSWORD &7F that loads the sprites and level data etc.

Loads and plays on 3.5 on my Master - haven't tried it back on 3.2, mind - and I've just played for a minute or two

Works perfect in 3.5!
And I discovered that it also works fine (and fast) in Retroclinic's DiskTrap mode. (an SSD loaded in RAM and the DiskTrap method fools the OS as if the RAM is an actual Disc. (or something like that))

[danielj]

3.2 fine too, just to reassure myself!

...and it also works fine on MOS 5.10 as well.

Found a little bug, using OS 3.5.
Could be a general bug of the game, but didn't experience this before.
In level 2 I got killed by the 3rd guard and fell at the same time in some spears. (killed 2 times in one go.....)
And now the game does not give an end tune and hangs. Only CTRL+A brought me back, not the 'press action to contimue' popped up or worked.

Cheers

Just spotted this post - it does run on the Compact (if you have a DFS rom in it). Maybe you meant it would be nice to have an ADFS version, but it sounds like that might not be possible.

I can't comment on the above bug report though, I have not managed to die like that yet!

I do have DFS in my Compact, ADFS unplugged, but the original didn't work.
Same USB stick, FF version worked on my Master.
Maybe you mean this new version - I haven't tried it yet - my Compact is currently buried in the back of the garage.

THANKS Kieranhj !!!!!

It Works !!! (MASTER 128 3.5 with GOTEK)

THANKS !!!!! I can add it in my TOP 10

I’m pretty sure both versions worked for me. I have got DFS 2.45 - don’t know if that makes any difference.

[drfloyd]

I love again my ROM 3.5

[sbadger]

Works on my Compact, MOS 5.10, DFS 2.45

[drfloyd]

LOVE THIS GAME !

We need more games like this for the powerful MASTER 128.

I’ve admired this work for a while, having never seen it in the flesh I’ve just gone on what other people have said, and the screens and video’s I’ve seen, of course.

It looks absolutely amazing, really great work.
After decades of wanting, but never owning, a Master, the new addition to my BEEB family should hopefully arrive tomorrow.


When it does, you can be sure this will be one of - if not the, first things I try on it. Ohhhhh, it’s like Christmas Eve, which also happens to be my birthday, funny, it doesn’t feel like my birthday though

Works fine on my BBC Master loading from Disk or Gotek.

Doesn't run from SD card, I know, PAGE Problem.
Solved using MMFS 1.45 ...


I love this game, really!!!

I have played this when I was a Teen, hundred times ...
After habituation on keyboard input I could reach level 7.


Thank you for porting this great game!!!

Yes!
I would like to see a port of "Spacxe Taxi"
