Okay Guys, I've shipped the work over to Zap now for confirmation on it, so I think it ready to go.

@TrekMD , just to note to you, I actually did the front and back manual covers as A5, so it's A4 page landscaped for a center fold, and I suggest double side print paper, your text will be too small on the pages I've done, the idea of a 4 section fold on an a4 will make it far to small to read if you get me, when printed :)

TrekMD

So, does that mean that we need to reduce the word count?

No, not at all, my sizes are bigger that the frames sizes you used when writing it up, the font size will need to be upped by who ever is doing it, so they should make it fit to my page size of the manual at A5 size. easy. :113:

OK, that's good.  We should have some game images in the instructions area, so there should be more room for that then, based on what you are saying.

Bare in mind that the guy doing this will do it his way lol so it could be different either way.

Ok I got some feedback that the game had problems running on real hardware. Apparently stuff that happens on the emu simply does not on real hardware so I have sent Jason more details.

ohh what a bummer :20:, hopefully Jason can reverse the issues..

TrekMD

This sort of stuff happens fairly often, it seems.  I'm sure it can be addressed by Jason.  :)

I have no doubts, i thought if it ran on on emu it would on real hardware lol.. How wrong was I.

Most of the time that's true but there are times where the code doesn't play well on real hardware.

I'm thinking there's something about 2k games that doesn't compile right.  I'll try these 4k ROMs tonight.  If anyone else has a flash cart please have a go as well!

The good news:  The builds I offered for download in 2k and 4k run as expected on my Atari 7800 at home.

The bad news: this doesn't discount the odd behavior Randy encountered.

If anyone else has a Harmony or Krokodile cart a third opinion would be awesome.
