I'd like to congratulate all those who sent in entries to the contest. I was really impressed with this years entries compared to what I've seen in the past. You've all made my job of juding rather difficult. Great work guys.

Some comments on the Atlas boot-loader. The soft-reset feature of the games on the C4 CD doesn't really help those who do the swap trick. When the Saturn resets I have to get up and reswap after each game. It would be better if Atlas left a small program resident in memory that the gamepaks would jump to when they exit. This little program could reload the bootloader without resetting the console so a reswap is not required.

The zooming instruction text moves a bit too fast to read easily and goes off the screen just a tad on my TV (relatively new 27" NTSC set). It was also a little confusing when a game woudl switch from being in the circle to being the one at the bottom. This will obviously be easier once the programs have pictures, but it would help if the pictures moved over there smoothly rather than just teleporting. Still a very cool bootloader.

A number of the entries had text that went off the edge of my set. I'm guessing this is probably a PAL vs. NTSC thing. I don't plan on letting this small detail have any impact on my judging, but it would be a good thing to good thing to be a bit more sensitive to in future efforts.

That's right, I discovered that, too. It's because the Atlas app is booted the usual way with it's IP.BIN being at the start of the CD. All booting stuff is controled by the demo demo loader lib (FLD) which comes without sources. If there is a way to work around this would have to be examined.

Rockin-b, the url of my store in the CD is wrong...

Ups, you're right, I'm sorry .

I downloaded the contest cd and there are a few bad things happening to my game : in the intro screen, the plasma effect won't show and the title, players and options screen are messed up, making it impossible to know what you do. Rockin'b, was it the same in the standalone version a gave to you ?

The only difference I found out was the plasma title screen, but I already told you about that and send you a preview version (did you check it out?) before even the judges got to see it. I also asked you if you would like to have a standalone version judged. Please note that neither you or I know whoose fault this is.

The judges CD has been modified with customization data to become the final C4CD. I have not yet tested this one (I'm away, sort of), but I will check and compare all 3 versions again.

(I played the winner's tetris, and the score stays at 128 points, no matter what I do . Is this normal ?)




[post=142477]Quoted post[/post]


Currently, the score system is WIP.
