Glitch Buster and Cardboard Jackets

Could almost hear victory trumpets when the playfield dissolved to be replaced by a text screen. After positioning a mirror so I could read by its reflection, I found it said: "Congratulations! you have passed the first test. You are now ready to confront THE ULTIMATE GLITCH"Heart in mouth, I hit the "return" key. More text filled the display. 

I was on my way...Frankly, the fine details have grown vague, wiped clean by a mixture of total exhaustion and the Game Doctor's smart-bomb therapy (still legal in New York State). I remember buying a dog whistle and then calling the serial number on my game disk, and I think I took the bus to Corvallis, Oregon, but I can't be sure. You know, I can still taste that disk. Hopefully, publishers will someday cater to glitch busters by encasing their disks in better-tasting cardboard jackets.It must've gone on like that for weeks, even months. 

Time lost all meaning as I crisscrossed the country, digging up caches of documentation and making enigmatic--even to me--calls to out-of-the-way electronic message boards. If EG hadn't printed plans for a left-handed joystick, I might never have completed my quest.But I did. And when the screen lit up, well, it was almost worth it. Folks say every life has three important moments: When you're born, when you get married, and when you die. Seeing this glitch makes it four.I'd love to be able to tell you about it, but my memories are already disjointed. I can recall at least the gist of the message from space, and the striptease show has also stuck in my mind, but other specifics are gone forever. All I know for sure is that a bunch of EG staffers found me slumped over the computer. They brought me here. From now on, send your glitches to  the FIFA 16 Hack For Android Forman [features editor]. She's still young and healthy enough to stand the strain.

Raiders of the Lost Ark

This version had the following changes: Main game menu can be configured to display filename and extension, filename only, or real game title Games can be highlighted by game type, alphabetically, or by alternating rows Game menu colors can be changed for alternating modes
Main game screen can be displayed in 80x25 text mode, 80x30 text mode, or high-resolution VESA  modesOption for slightly more realistic Pitfall II music Debugger supports breakpoint on symbolic equation Major TIA fixes-emulation is much more accurate Emulator settings moved to industry-standard .INI file Completely new controller support allowing mouse, keyboard, and joystick functions to be remapped Fully re-mappable Gravis GrIP controller support (requires Gravis DOS driver-see chapter 2) Fully re-mappable Microsoft SideWinder controller support-can be expanded to support future SideWinder controllers PCAE and PCAE160 have been combined into a single executable Additional game resolution modes for PAL games and greater compatibility with various video cards
 

Several emulator bug fixes 

Experimental program to assist in detecting new SideWinder controller packet structures Improved debugger online help During emulation, pressing F8 allows the user to type in a game title. Title, game type, controller information, and the vertical position (as set with the plus and minus keys) are saved to the profile file. Thus the emulator "remembers" where the last vertical position was set by the user.
 

Improved joystick calibration routine that should be more friendly to "jittery" joysticks
Thrustmaster FCS, CH Flightstick Pro, and some multi-button gamepads supported (all but the FCS are untested) 

Improved external interface board design
Minus key in debugger moved to equals (plus) key, and also shows the CRT horizontal position
Hitting the minus key in the debugger shows the positions of the player objects, missiles, and ball (when the game screen is being displayed) Slightly improved disassembler should be more compatible with backswitched images

This emulator has these key features:
Very fast emulation due to the Pentium-optimized assembly implementation
Full collision checking
