playingwithwilly Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 (edited) Discovered this gem on Emuunlim today. Has ports of Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy III, Join the Jet Set, Willy's New Hat, Manic Miner 7, The Deadly Mission, Willy's Holiday, Willy in Space and the Continuing Adventure. If you have an old DOS machine kicking around I highly recommend it, but I don't suggest running it on 32-bit Windows with DOS support as the game is designed for machines with little memory and will run fast. bonus.zip jsmw11a.zip Edited November 16 by playingwithwilly jetsetdanny and Spider 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 Thank you. I have seen the w11a on the (brought in about 96 or 97 I think?) CD 'Spectrum' from Craig Rothwell. It combines several games. There is some kind of cheat also (needed) but although at one point I did know what it was its escaped me at the moment. I'll have a look at these tomorrow. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsetdanny Posted November 23 Report Share Posted November 23 Thank you for this contribution, playingwithwilly! 👍 Craig Rothwell's version has been discussed twice already on this forum. There is a separate topic dedicated to it: Plus it was discussed in this thread, starting here. The discussion includes the link to Craig's archived page with the cheat code. Andy, would you be able to move the posts from this thread to this one to avoid a duplication of topics? I've just tried doing it, but I'm not quite sure how to do it and wouldn't want to mess things up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Some investigation. Its not (probably) an i386 vs x64 issue. Tested on the following: Windows 7 Professional 32bit Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit Windows XP Professional 64bit I cannot be sure due to issues with virtualisation if the graphic issues I encountered are caused by my test or the file itself. The options setup for graphics mode only appeared in XP which is helpful because at least you can see what to press for 1-6 mode. However I was not able to find an easy to manually edit config file to transfer to the other two to retry them. I should point out my virtualisation setup does have graphic issues anyway. With that said, it played 100% on XP64 , I didn't bother with XP32 as its going to work on that. As to why it refuses W10 and W11 at this moment I've not investigated that far. The varying screensizes are my doing not the game, the window is resizeable. Win 7 32: Win 7 64: Win XP 64: jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
