Guest muff Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 I doubt they've lost the code as they keep releasing it on new formats - on the Vodaphone that Beckham advertises now it's a shame that they've not shared it though :) I'll tinker a little more, and see where it gets us, but in general I'm fairly happy with the current version, so if all else fails I can stick with that thanks for the quote though - I have actually read the article before, a while ago, but didn't come across it again when doing searches at the weekend so had forgotten about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Deemon Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 Muff....was just wondering if you used any of my stuff in the end ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fumaras Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 sorry muff but i found a problem in v0.09a if highscore is higher than 100000 ( :) ;) ) then highscore is blocked at 100000. The score restart to zero and count normally. For exemple i see: 1P................................highscore 6840.............................100000 normally i should see 1P 106840 and highscore 106840 (the saved highscore is 100000) PS: I see 1 galaxian, 2 bells and 3 sort of white key with small ball blue at top of the white key. what is this sort of "fruit" ?

I hope so I'm off to increase the limits, there will be a new version available tomorrow muff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fumaras Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 ok thank you muff, else all seems ok now and i hope you can make a pause function for the game later... (the key is ok, it was just to now exactlly what is this form because i wasn't sure it's a key... thanks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest muff Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 re:pause function I suppose when your getting 100,000 points you probably deserve to pause it for a second :) will look at adding it into the version for tomorrow muff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest adrianfox Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 muff I was playing arcade version and I noticed a few little things that should be easy to tweakif you have the mind to: - The arcade version is a little faster around 20-25% to move pacman from one side of maze to the other on Level 1 - when you go onto second level, it should pause a second or so with "Ready!" giving you chance to press a key so it sets off in a different direction - The ghosts in the arcade move up and down in their pen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fumaras Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 ok thank you for all muff. yes adrianfox and i add that the great difference i saw (because it's very more hard if...) is when you catch a blue ghost, the ghost reapper in is base and leave immediatly.

Guest muff Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 I guess these requests are the penalty for making the rest of it so close the arcade version :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fumaras Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 probably :) but your game is very interresting like it is ;) and my request is just to make the game a little more harder because if ghost leave his base immediatly*, it's more difficult to catch the point near the base. Actually, it's enough easilly to catch a flashing point, catch some ghost and take the point around the base during ghost wait in their base :wink: . (* in this way, i'm not sure it's necessery to change the highscore :wink: , very hard or impossible (?) to go to 100000) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aiwapro Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Wow, it's a great game. Control is a whole lot better than the last version I downloaded. Is it me, or do the ghosts move too fast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benjymous Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Any chance of a sound on/off option, to save having to turn down the phone volume when I'm playing in the office? (Great game, btw :lol:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benjymous Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Adrian, that's a great quote, were'd you find it???? I'd love to include the actual algorithms they used (although as I said above mine is actually not a bad estimate) so all details on this are welcome I think one of them always goes a random direction, and the other always turns left (or right?) when he bumps into a wall. Can't be certain tho, but playing with the original should help you work it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gorskar Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Very minor bug I've noticed: If you eat a fruit just after eating a ghost then the ghost's score appears for a second where the ghost was eaten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest muff Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 new version up - V0.10a - see first post in topic to see change list + link to file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gorskar Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 because it has already showed the score for eating the ghost, and then disappeared. You then eat the fruit. The score for eating the ghost REappears a 2nd time for a second (at the point where the ghost was eaten). Surely this is not meant to happen??

Guest muff Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 I really need some feedback on the new ghost behaviour I've had a report from Dade that it's not as good as before, and I tend to agree, but will hold changing back (if I can - as lots of code has changed around the behaviour code that may have affected it) until I get some feedback... at least for a few hours anyway :lol: muff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flash Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Muff, Don't know if it's me or not, but playing the new version (V0.10a), ALL the ghosts seem a damn sight smarter! They've now worked out how to trap you in a corner! They appear to be working in a group, as opposed to having individual characteristics ;-) Of course it could just be me being crap ;-) Flash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jaknife2000 Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Hi ya Muff, I appear to have gained my installing then running issue again with version 0.10a Install the app, check my ram (Task Manager), over 5mb free. Run the app, and bang, pops back to my home page. Reboot the phone, and it all works. Strange. VERY pleased the pause is in there now tho. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest muff Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 jaknife2000: I have no idea what is causing this, all I can say is that it does happen on these phones from time to time (they dont appear to manage their memory very well) I really doubt that it is SPVman, as I install it to my phone far more times than anyone else out there, as you guys only see the public releases, and I do loads of test versions between public versions also, if it was a problem specific to SPVman, I think more people would have mentioned it sorry, but I think it's just one of those things muff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
