Chevy Chase GX4000, converted by @CyrilAmstrad 
CPC+ colors
Load screen / whole gamefull joypad control
---------------------------
V2 : modified car controls => more ergonomic
Fire1 : accelerate
Fire2 : brake
Joypad up : gear

Many thanks. I see on the CPC Wiki list of GX-4000 conversions that a new Chevy Chase entry appears. Is it this version?

[XeNoMoRPH]

affirmative 

[iXien]

affirmative 

Perfect !

I don't remember I've seen a post that gave this information. But maybe I didn't see it. If not, a post in this thread is highly recommended as nothing permits to identify new entries and the list becomes to be very looooong 

@CyrilAmstrad teases us with a very nice upcoming and upgraded version of Operation Alexandra too    Is this version available (it's still the CraigsBar version 1.1 in the list)?

I cant play none of  the abduction of oscarz versions, i have my gx4000 connected to the tv through an OSSC, the intro plays but when the game starts the screen is off-center then goes black and the OSSC start to jump from one resolution to another in an infinite loop  .

I think the convertissor makes you trouble because it is a scrolling at 2 pixels .on my original harware with CM monitor or a scart TV , it works well.

I did this game too, but didn't upload it yet, you might want this version too.

The Abduction of Oscar Z

Joypad Fire Button 1 or Button 2 to Skip Into

Joypad 1 Button 1 or UP to Jump.
Joypad 1 Button 2 for Action.
Console Pause Button to Quit Game.

@CyrilAmstrad

Not sure if you want to leave your version how it is or change it, I could change it, but will leave it for you to do if you wish.


I don't mind if your version gets added to the wiki page instead of mine as yours has instructions, can even add both to the rar.

@Phantomz  , Well i will modifiy mine and maybe add something more ( V2)  ;)Then after this moficication and possible add features , we could gather both yours and mine 

[CyrilAmstrad]

Just  last topic , from my side :
I will release Sorcerers from Salavador Cantero , with a GX4000 Joypad version , with a new splash screen and CPC+ in game colors very soon

Nice work with " Chevy Chase ". 


Just played it to the end in winape, nice to see a game with an ending. 


I've made changes to both version to use on my GX4000.


I've made the game default to Joypad, so it's Joypad / Joystick only now.


This lets me just Press Fire Button 1 to Start Game, I've changed the instructions and menu screen too.

You converted so many games, that's nice to show they manage to give you a game that seems important in your own history

EDIT : This message had no more interest. Suppressed it.

Navy moves sound near imposible.. The problem was they used the screen memory to execute the  part of the computer.... And nocart mount the cartridge rom pages in the screen memory. He don't allow mount pages in the lower rom.


So when you try to stole the code a interrupts call low ram code that call high code that was your rom page instead her code and all crash...



Add they use full ram. And they kill the firmware. So you can't use the firmware to display in screen.

At last done. I prepared a RAR file for all the new games patched since the last list update. For games that need it (specific controls, cheatcodes...), I added a TXT file with full information. I added more informations for some games too, like ZOMBI with a little PDF that describes the icons, or BOBBY BEARING in which I give more gameplay informations really missing in the instruction manual. I also prepared a file with informations needed to update the GX-4000 conversions list.

I gave the files to @remax that told me that he will upload all this content soon!

And we have a "grand-master"!    After so many years (well, some years), Navy Moves at last on GX-4000. Well done. I made some tests and it seems to work perfectly but I didn't have time to finish it yet. Hope you'll manage to convert the english version from CNGSoft soon

Thanks a lot, what a great work!

Could this mean that a Frank Bruno's Boxing conversion is possible?
