| Castle Zhagwhar | |
Frenkel » 30-Sep-2009 | |
| | | |
This is probably the last update of this site.
For this update I bring you Castle Zhagwhar.
It's a game for the TRS-80 Color Computer created by Keith Schuler in 1987 and published in the June 1989
issue of the Rainbow magazine. Not much can be found on the Internet about Castle Zhagwhar, but most people say it's
the first game of a trilogy in which Chagunitzu and Paganitzu are the second and third ones.
Now that I've played Castle Zhagwhar in the Vcc emulator,
I can state that this is not the case. Chagunitzu and Paganitzu are both puzzle games starring Alabama Smith.
Castle Zhagwhar is a platform game similar to Jumpman and it stars Gwydion.
The only similarity I could find between these games is that in all of them the player must collect items before he can advance to the next level.
The Castle Zhagwhar zip file contains a disk image of Castle Zhagwhar, which can be used in Vcc.
It also contains the original Basic source code listing of this game, which was published over 20 years ago in the Rainbow magazine.
It's September 2009 and I still haven't found the Dutch DOS game Octopus, released by B & C on 26-Sep-1988.

| Maps of Catacomb | |
Frenkel » 26-Jul-2009 | |
| | | |
Like I've hinted at, I've generated maps of all the levels in Catacomb I.
The maps are on our Catacomb page.

| Maps of The Catacomb | |
Frenkel » 17-Jul-2009 | |
| | | |
I've generated maps of all the levels in Catacomb II.
I might do the maps of Catacomb I later. Why did I do Catacomb II
before Catacomb I? Because the graphics in Catacomb II are easier
to find because they are in a seperate data file, while the graphics
of Catacomb I are inside the main executable.
The maps are on our Catacomb page.
Also in 2009, I'm still looking for the Dutch DOS game Octopus, released by B & C on 26-Sep-1988.

| Michael Jackson (1958-2009) | |
Frenkel » 28-Jun-2009 | |
| | | |
Michael Jackson just died. He's best known for his music, but he has also played in a
couple of movies. Moonwalker is such a movie and it's also the name of a computer
game that's based on the movie of the same name. The game has four levels and I've
created maps of all of them.
The maps are on our Moonwalker page.

| Wolf3D CGA 2.0 | |
Frenkel » 15-Jun-2009 | |
| | | |
I've updated my Wolfenstein 3-D CGA demo with a much better looking title screen.
In this release I've also included an interactive version, so you can run around.
The source code is also released, so you can see how it's made.
The new version of the demo is at our Wolfenstein 3D page.

| Wolfenstein-Adrian-Liberation-Day | |
Frenkel » 05-May-2009 | |
| | | |
Today, 64 years ago the Netherlands were liberated from the Nazi occupation during
World War II. It's a coincidence that on the same day in 1992 Wolfenstein 3D was
released. One of the creators of that game is Adrian Carmack. He celebrates his
40th birthday today. In one of the help screens of the shareware version of Wolf3D,
he says:
|
"Okay, now for the CGA version . . . NOT!"
|
To celebrate all these events I have created a demo of what the CGA version of
Wolfenstein 3D could have looked like. The demo is at our Wolfenstein 3D page.
Also in 2009, I'm still looking for the Dutch DOS game Octopus, released by B & C on 26-Sep-1988.

| Monster Cheats | |
Frenkel » 09-Apr-2009 | |
| | | |
Today, it's 16 years ago when Monster Bash version 1.0 was released. If you read this on 10-Apr-2009,
it's 16 years ago when Monster Bash version 1.01 was released. And if you read this on 12-Apr-2009,
it's 16 years ago when Monster Bash version 1.02 was released.
To celebrate these events I've created a page about Monster Bash.
Most of the hex cheats contents on that page was discovered by
Malvineous,
thanks!

| Monty Python's Life of Cheat | |
Frenkel » 28-Mar-2009 | |
| | | |
Today, the movie Monty Python's Life of Brian is shown for the first time
after a 30-year ban in Aberystwyth, Great Britain. To celebrate this event,
I've created a page for Monty Python's Flying Circus,
containing a cheat that is available for the first time on the Internet.

| Apogee Stuff For Free | |
Frenkel » 27-Mar-2009 | |
| | | |
3D Realms has released a bunch of their
old Apogee games for free,
including Dark Ages and Monuments of Mars.
Another game that is released as freeware is the Kroz series. I helped a bit
with this release and I was given the honor to write a couple of sentences
for the Readme.txt file. I've copied the result to our Kroz page.
Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure is an old Apogee game that is still for sale. The cheats on the
official Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure Cheats page
are not complete. I've put a cheat to end the game real quick on our Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure page.

Today it's 3 years ago when Major Stryker got released as freeware. To celebrate
this I've updated our Major Stryker page
for the second time this year. This update involves the cheats for Major Stryker.
It turns out the cheats for Major Stryker that can be found everywhere on the
Internet, including on the
official Major Stryker Cheats page,
are incomplete. I've found more cheats and I've published them on this website.

| Angry PC Speaker Nerd | | Frenkel » 15-Feb-2009 | |
|---|
| | |
|
There are a lot of covers of the Angry Video Game Nerd
theme song available on the Internet. So I wanted to create one too. I could
have played the song on the piano, record that and put it on YouTube. But
there are already a couple of piano covers there. Instead, I recreated the
song in Trixter's Monotone.
That's a tracker for extremely simple sound devices, like the PC speaker.
If you want to listen to the song through your own PC speaker, download
Monotone from the Monotone website and download AVGN.zip
from this website.
Update 27-Jun-2020: Years ago, I've created more songs with Monotone and put them on YouTube.
Due to popular demand, they can now be downloaded from here:
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit,
Het refrein van het Koningslied and
Slayer - Raining Blood.

Update 27-Jun-2020: I'm still looking for Octopus.

| Happy New Year | |
Frenkel » 08-Feb-2009 | |
| | | |
Happy New Year! You probably know that Duke Nukem 1
borrowed images from Mega Man and Turrican, and Duke Nukem 2 borrowed from
Turrican and Savage.
Well, Duke Nukem 1 and 2 aren't the only Apogee games that borrowed artwork
from other games. Major Stryker is another one. It copied art from the
shoot 'em up game Sidewinder.
The evidence is at our Major Stryker page.

There are some cheats for the DOS version of The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants floating around the Internet on numerous cheat sites.
In every single case they are either incomplete, not working or not for the DOS version although the site will say they're for the DOS version.

On the Classic DOS Games Forum,
ugetab found a cheat for the Thor Trilogy. I've put this cheat on our Thor Trilogy page. I've also put something
that I've made for the Thor Trilogy on our Thor Trilogy page: map layouts. To create these maps I quickly coded a level viewer that's also
available on this website. It turned out this program can also be used to edit the levels of all three episodes of this game.

| Happy New Year | |
Frenkel » 16-Feb-2008 | |
| | | |
Happy New Year to everybody. To start of this year with something completely different than usual I have a question for you.
I am looking for a game I used to have on a floppy disk that I can't read anymore. I have asked for this game at the
Dos Games Forum
like I'm supposed to do according to our Guestbook and Contact page,
but I didn't get any response.
The game I'm looking for is called Octopus. It was released on 26-Sep-1988 by B & C.
(This could be B & C Automatiseringsdiensten, but I'm not sure.) It's an action game for DOS in Dutch with ASCII
graphics. I can't remember much of this game, but I do remember that it was a fun game containing mini-games and
sometimes the words "back 2 base" would appear on the screen.
If you have Octopus or if you remember this game, please contact us.

| Christmas Time | |

| | | |
It's the time of year to say "Merry Christmas everybody !!". For my yearly contribution I've created a little script
that adds a Christmas themed box to the menu, showcasing our Secret Agent mod.
The nice thing about the script is that it checks for the date, so come Easter I don't have to pay any attention
 . Calculating just when it's Easter is a difficult matter though...
Enjoy the holiday.

| Cheat the Oscar | |
Frenkel » 04-Oct-2007 | |
| | | |
Trolls isn't the only game that Flair Software made. They also made Oscar, which uses the same engine as Trolls.
It turns out that what I've found in Trolls also works in Oscar. It looks like the guys at Flair Software are fans of Quentin Tarantino, but
they don't know how to spell the name of one of his movies right.
Go to our Oscar page.

I've read on the Trolls trivia page at MobyGames
the following:
This message can be found in the program executable:
"This game was written on a very slow schneider 10mhz 286 with lots of wait states. If for some reason on your very fast xxxx 25mh 486 this game
seems to be fast or unplayable, do no blame us for it was a penny pinching boss who would not buy us reasonable pc's to work on. signed THE

Renegade page.
This is the final part of our series of cheats for Taito games. I've announced to publish cheats for Qix,
but I won't, because I don't know them. All I know is that Qix opens the file BETATEST.DAT and reads the
first 15 bytes from that file. But I don't know what those 15 bytes should be or whether they are used
and whether there really are cheats in Qix. If you do, contact us.

It's written by William Rieder who also ported Taito games to the PC. The cheats for Oil's Well are

Some time ago, I was looking with the DOSBox debugger which files are needed to play Operation Wolf. I saw the game tried to open BETA.DAT.
After some research it turned out William Rieder, the programmer of the DOS version of Operation Wolf, has put some cheats and an easter egg
in Operation Wolf. I've found out how to activate the cheats, but not how to activate the easter egg. Get the cheats and more information
about the easter egg at our Operation Wolf page.
After some more research I found out there are more Taito games that have cheats which are activated in a similar way as the cheats in Operation
Wolf. There is even a game William Rieder wrote for Sierra On-Line that has cheats which are also activated through a BETA.DAT file.
I will publish the cheats for Bubble Bobble, Puzznic, Qix, Rambo III, Renegade and Oil's Well soon, so stay tuned.
