[jrpacman]+ Updated XML files for Starting Level and Bootleg additions

Post by pac_man_fan2 »

I couldn't very well forget about the jr. pacmans, what a PITA these are to work on.
For: jrpacman, jrpacmanf, jrpacmbl

- Replaced the Starting Level cheat to be in-line with my other routine. Along with it being consistent to the other pac's, if you started on level 2, that "Player One" text overlaps 2 dots, rendering the level un-finishable. I've spent many hours finding that text and removing it! The Bootleg was an additional challenge to find and remove the P1 text. The bootleg one causes a off color horizontal line at the top, but it gets the job done.

- Added Infinite Credits to the bootleg.

- I've been unable to get the "Finish this Level Now" to work. Jr.pacs stores the number of dot counts in at least 3 places, that I can find. Even with that, I havnt figured it out yet. Maybe a 2nd set of eyes on this would help?!? :-)

Don't know exactly what you've done with the later cheats, as the file is no longer online. But comparing files is not a method I use to add cheats...I'm going to call it a day on adding cheats for the next release now.


There is a FInish this Level Now! cheat for jrpacman which seems to work fine alrady in the cheat collection...
Here's an alternate finish this level cheat for jrpacman I made - enable it and then press 1 to finish the level. Can't see a problem with the original though...

Code: Select all

  <cheat desc="Finish this Level with 1P Button">
    <script state="run">
      <action>maincpu.mb@985D=EB</action>
      <action condition="(maincpu.pb@5060 BAND 20)==00">maincpu.mb@985D=E5</action>
    </script>
    <script state="off">
      <action>maincpu.mb@985D=EB</action>
    </script>    
  </cheat>
