  • VMAX4 Galaxian Thunder Mountain PAL

    From [email protected]@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 17 14:10:11 2018
    Hi,
    Does any one have a flux / pulse based capture of a 1541 disk of Galaxian by Thunder Mountain for a PAL C64 in either P64 or FDI format? This needs to be an image that is not originally sourced from a G64 or GCR images.

    I am having trouble getting Galaxian in G64 format from the preservation collection to load a development version Hoxs64 with new experimental VIA shift register support. I can get past the shift register decryption but get stuck on track 22. Curiously,
    the game loads correctly about 1 in 100 times but I would like to rule out the G64 capture as being an issue after seeing other G64s with truncated tracks.

    Thanks in advance.

    No. But I have about ten different Galaxian images plus Pac-Man by
    Thunder Mountain-Namco in my collection. At least what I can tell from
    the file names.

    I tested four of them but none mentions "Thunder Mountain" in the splash screen. Suppose I don't have what you want. Sorry.

    Case closed.

    Is this available online somewhere? Or can you upload the image
    somewhere. Failing both, can you just email it to me? Would love to have
    a look.
