Did you try reaching out to the person that hosted the video and see where they got it?

#16 4 years ago

Chad Posted it so he got it from the hidden code

So, it’s still in the ROM but never implemented? Would love to run this in my game!

#20 4 years ago

Ok so... why not use Chad's code then? Unless I'm missing something.

Sounds like it was unfinished?

Speeder Mode

How to obtain: Speeder Mode is lit by hitting all five X-Wing targets, the Force, or by Jabba’s bounty and collected via shooting the inner orbit.

Scoring: Automatic 10M.

Other: X-Mode is lit on the playfield, but it is actually Speeder Mode on the display. On top of that, Speeder Mode is a tease with no real interaction (use the fire button to make a shooting noise – hold down fire button to end the animation early). There is speculation as to why this once ‘video mode’ was cut from production – possibly a rights issue with ‘video mode’. Calling it Speeder Bonus would have been a better fit.

Was the code in beta units then ripped out do to Williams/Bally IP issues??

#24 4 years ago

Yeah if we can get the original ROM, the idea is to copy it (several times) and send one to Chad so he can add it to 1.07

From what I understood of the changelog, it was present in 1.04, but not fully functioning as a typical video mode since the original code wasn't completed.

Question, doesn't Chad have the proto ROMs?

Quoted from ForceFlow:

From what I understood of the changelog, it was present in 1.04, but not fully functioning as a typical video mode since the original code wasn't completed.

1.04 display ROM or game ROM?
The game ROM just has bits of code to the display... Does a sound ques...
then reads the switch matrix for the fire button closure... it loops back
waiting to ether time out or if it detects the fire button to score the points and exit.
