Newer unemulated version of Major Havoc Return to Vax
#396461 - 06/17/23 12:55 PM


The latest (final) version of Major Havoc Return to Vax is 1.8. The version in MAME and HBMAME is an earlier version though I'm not sure which one.

ANYWAY, here's the link directly from the author's website:
http://gamearchive.askey.org/Video_Games/Manufacturers/Atari/roms/havoc_R_to_V.zip

Here's the ROMIDENT from MAME and HBMAME.

MAME
Identifying havoc_R_to_V.zip....
136025.908 = 136025.908 mhavocrv Major Havoc - Return to Vax
136025.917 = 136025.917 mhavocrv Major Havoc - Return to Vax
136025.916 NO MATCH
136025.915 NO MATCH
136025.918 NO MATCH

HBMAME
Identifying havoc_R_to_V.zip....
136025.908 = 136025.908 mhavocrv Major Havoc - Return to Vax
136025.917 = 136025.917 mhavocrv Major Havoc - Return to Vax
136025.916 NO MATCH
136025.915 NO MATCH
136025.918 NO MATCH

The author normally makes a PR, but maybe he's still working on it.

Once he started working on "The Promised End" he seems to have abandoned his site and this version. So that should make R2V the final version (at least for now) since he's been working on The Promised End for a couple of years now, incorporating a lot of that into it.

I added that version in, but although it runs I'm not really sure about it...
- There's nothing on the screen about it being Return to Vax
- There's nothing to say it's version 1.8, it just says 4.0 like the one in MAME.
- So...

I'll reach out to him and find out.
