Subject: VHW, Rope Problem solved and JSW64

 

Firstly, thanks for your help regarding the rope problem. A little
change in colour helped - thanks for your advice Alexandra.
Secondly, although I've (belatedly) got John Elliots JSW Ed 2.2.0
and the JSW64 engine up and running, i've decided to press on and
keep Vampire Hunter Willy in its original 128k form. The current
incarnation is about 15% playable (although 6 of the new screens are
currently unreachable), and though it would certainly look a lot
better using the JSW64 engine, it would take a long while to go
through and replicate what i've already done. I am planning another
title while i'm doing VHW, and that will definitely use the JSW64
engine, though this one may possibly be a Manic Miner hack.
Secondly, I require a little help (again). Just a simple problem
(hopefully), but as you will no doubt see on the title screen, there
are two huge white blocks that appear when the game is first loaded
(above and below the *Hit Enter* message respectively). They
disappear when you play the game proper and return to the titles.
Is there anyway to get rid of them when the game is first loaded?
Muchos Appreciatos people. And again, apologies for asking for yet
more help. I guess i'll get things sussed in time...
