Crackpots- Activision - Atari 2600 - PAL Version Hack - 2600+ - DOWNLOAD IN DESCRIPTION

UPDATE: Apparently there is an official PAL Version of Crackpots by Activision with big thanks to Game Designer, Dan Kitchen for confirming this on the comments here. (Thank you again, Dan.)

After digging up and searching deep online. I came across archive.org that has a list of Atari 2600 ROMs on there. One caught my eye on there that showed a "Unknown" Publisher of the game Crackpots from "archive.org"

After downloading it and opening it up on Stella. I was surprised to came across a legitimate PAL release of Crackpots ( minus the Activision sprite logo and with the wrong colours making it like a NTSC50 release) I said to myself "You beauty"

I gather around by opening this ROM on Hack-O-Matic 3. went ahead with checking the addresses.I emplimented the Activison logo with the rainbow banner on it along with the "Copyright 1983" HEX data into this ROM. Saving bits and pieces as I go of course.

Now everything here is now been done up with the following fixes:


● Corrected the sky colour and sunset colours

● Made the buildings int he background a caramel brown.

● Restore the Activision logo with the correct rainbow banner colours

●Bricks, bugs and pot plants with planst now have the right colours.

● Player character has a more beige colour skin than a yellow skin like it's NTSC version counterpart.
