Cosmic convoy cheat wanted

Post by koseidon72 »

Hello to everybody!
This is my first post :)
I love a very old c64 game: Cosmic Convoy but since is very difficult to play I've been looking for some tricks or cheat.
Unfortunately, untill now I didn't find any.

This is the link to get the game and where you can see a screenshot of it:

www gamebase64 com/game.php?id=1699&d=18
(remember to put the dot after www and before com)

I've only found the way to stop our convoy that is:
poke 25384,173
and the way to speed up 10 times the convoy:
poke 25367,10

There is a way to survive against the attack of the enemies (disable sprite-sprite collision) with some cartridge such as Action Replay but the problem is that our convoy can be destroyed before it reaches the destination and so game ends.

I had no success trying to disable sprite-background collision

Anyone can help me?
Thanks
:)

Thanks!! You're great! :D :D

Only one thing that I'm curious to know.
Do you think is it possible to visualize the destination planet before the convoy has reached the right end of the bottom map?
Is it also possible to block our ship on the visible area once the destination planet appears instead of running out on top of the screen?

Is it difficult to find the pokes that control the planet and its movement?

Thanks again!

I really don't understand the question, the game is a simple/dull one so planetary movement shouldn't be an issue.

If there's a problem with the pokes above describe the problem please and I'll have a look at them.

Yes, you're right, but I was asking if you can give the pokes that controle the big sprite planet at the begin and at the end of the game, so it can be moved. It should be interesting to see what happens.

It's a request if you kindly help it.
Thanks

It´s the same thing. If the planets are "poked" away, the own fleet will start and end at the same position.

This is, what I guess. Oh, no, wait. There will be black holes. :o

It's not true, because planet are object that could change the game. I've tried to erase part of planet sprite with the final cartridge and game changed

Sorry, I just can't see the point of what you want it'll either make levels uncompleteable or shorter...if you want to finish the levels faster it's easier (for me) for you to just stick warp mode on in an emulator and if you want to crash the game I can give you an endless number of pokes to do that.....

The original request has been satisfied.

The later request is not a valid request for the reasons I've outlined here and in the other post.
