I can't see any star.
The code has bugs.

Hey Yuri! Where did you get the Turrican Sprite ???

This somehow reminds me on the 'Starfield Simulation' screensaver by microsoft (I hope you don't feel insulted now

)

@Num3: Where did you buy Turrican 2? I've been playing T1 for days and months, but never played T2

Sorry for the OT, Factor5 (the game authors) give T1,T2,T3 (and other hits) free in their site! (for use with Amiga emulator)

HI!

The starfield does only work with arround 300 stars on my mobile-PC with 2.6GhZ Pentium IV and GeForce4 32MB. Windows 2000, Latest Servicepack.

If I increase the starsammount I see the stars flying for arround 1 second, then the application quits. Increase it more to 30000 I only see a black screen, then exiting the app.

I will test it on my desktop in some minutes.

Mike

Just activate the debugger, you'll see that there isn't any check for array bounds...

On Amiga Turrican 1 is more difficult and longer than T2.

I finished both two on Amiga after loooong playing.
I didn't finished T3, but, you can be sure, someday i'll do.

Here is another fine web where are old Thalion games free to download: www.cus.org.uk/~alexh/

I like C. Huelsbeck music a lot, but i prefer Jochen Hippel's.

The question about turrican 2 is not to finish it...

It's about with how much lifes, bonuses and powerups you finish with!

Damn i know every secreat area, bonus area, boss and pixel of the game...

If you know it just so well, why don't you re-code it in PB?

Num3 · Post by **Num3** » Tue Sep 02, 2003 7:30 pm

Don't have the sprites...

If someone supplies them... i can do it...

At the moment i'm working with Spangly on Extreme Violence Redux ...

You are right num3, The question about turrican 2 is not to finish it...
