Great! I'll give it a thorough beating :) - Noticed that CLEV-cheat-code isn't working. - just had it running while typing 2 soldiers came really close, but when directly in front of me they do not do anything but wait for me to kill them ;-) Regarding release: Have you thought about releasing this ...

Added weapon pickups. Just tried this. Neat! Do I assume correctly that I can get pistol/chaingun-ammo only from soldiers and shotgun ammo only the one lying around (the four iiii) ? Or would it be possible to actually have two different types of soldiers like in the original with just a slightly d...

Woohoo! Weapons! What fun :-) This just keeps getting better and better! Bug-report as always: I cannot switch to machine-gun from the pistol (have to go through shotgun first). Bug or feature? It's difficult to decide whether an enemy has been hit using the chaingun. I see the visual effect, but I ...

Yup, absolutely brilliant it is! Don't know if it is considered a bug: But I can walk through the oil-barrels, in original Doom these are obstacles. Feature-wise: When I (sometimes) run out of ammo I have no way to fight. Is there a possibility to add "Fist" as a weapon when running out of...

Nice idea. My PAL-VIC is S-Video modded, my NTSC-VIC is not. I have a 1901 and a 1084-monitor. You can find the pictures here: http://www.tokra.de/vic/lacepal1901.jpg http://www.tokra.de/vic/lacepal1084.jpg http://www.tokra.de/vic/lacentsc1084.jpg I agree it's hard to photograph.

Very nice to see the continuing progress on this! I like the new "kill"-sounds better :D - the new help screen and credits are also pretty nice. What I forgot to ask before: Is it a technical necessity for the music to stop completely while sound effects are playing? Especially if you're f...

Oops, something is wrong with the latest commit (87) - As soon as I start to turn the in-game screen area gets black and or just single lines. Also I noticed yesterday you added a "kill"-sound to the enemies. Nice idea, but I think the effect sounds "unrealistic" opposed to say t...

Can you confirm that this display window fits neatly in your monitor without cropping the corners? POKE36864,2 POKE36865,20 POKE36866,24 POKE36867,52 I noticed these are the values I used for "Retina Display" which shows 192x416 interlaced. I came up with these values by using the horizon...

I was wondering how much a system to run this would have cost back in the day: VIC 20 - $299 VIC 1540 - ???? (saw mention of "under $1000 for a system of VIC and floppy") 16K RAM - $109.95 8K RAM - $59.95 8K RAM - $59.95 3K RAM - $39.95 VIC-1020 or VIC-1010 cartridge expander - ??? So some...

I sometimes see the same behavior. A quick:

0poke36879,rnd(1)*256:goto
run

cycling for a few seconds corrects this. Your solution may be quicker, though ;-)

I hope something can be worked out with the forum in the future! Would really hate to see it go. It's the number one VIC-20 place to be.

Man! The speed with which you implement these improvements is sheer amazing. All these work very nice. No more frustration on slow turns and non-pickup of the key or medikit. I noticed in the source-code the enemy "Baron" is in there. Is there one in the game as well? What would be nice is...

Exploding barrels are in! Yea! It's fun luring a soldier near a barrel and blowing a barrel up. Luckily barrel blasts don't hurt the player (yet?) I agree with darkatx that some items are a little hard to pick up. If it's possible to widen the area they "react" just a bit I would be in fa...

Or get the C64SD Infinity, which works and looks great on the VIC-20:
