Does anybody know if it's possibly to use game cheats that worked on the original C64? Specifically, I found this page: www.gamewinners.com/C64/JumpmanJunior.htmThat gives you some addresses and values to poke in order to get unilimited lives in Jumpman Jr. I tried going to the basic prompt loading the game: LOAD "JUMPMANJR", 1 entering one of the above: POKE 9450,173 and then: RUN but all I get is READY. It's been at least 15 years since I messed with a Commodore. Am I missing something or will things like these just not work with the C64DTV? Thanks, Jason

Cheats will work, but it's a little trickier if you're using the joystick keyboard. Here's a program to give infinite lives for Jumpman Junior:
0L=L+1:IFL=1THENPOKE1,55:LOAD"JUMP*",1,1 1IFL=2THENPOKE39914,173:SYS32777 RUN
Sorry it's so long, that's as short as I could make it.
A bit of info: most of the games on the DTV aren't RUNable, you have to start them with a SYS. Also, the POKEs you find on sites are for a particular version/crack of a game and they probably won't work with all versions.

Are there any other cheats for the DTV for the other games such as Uridum and Zynaps? Have you done the keyboard hack? It's pretty easy to make cheats that will work with that. If you're using the virtual keyboard it'll be trickier (more work) for me to write a program that'll work. Jumpman Jr. was easy since loading the game doesn't overwrite where BASIC programs are stored. Most games on the DTV aren't like that. If you've done the keyboard hack: LOAD "URIDIUM",1,1 POKE 3452,0 SYS 2304 LOAD "ZYNAPS",1,1 POKE 47106,189 SYS 51712 That's for infinite lives. If some people want cheats that can be entered with the virtual keyboard, let me know. They'll be much longer programs though, maybe nobody would want to enter something so long.

Hi macbthpsw, Unfourtunately I don't have the keyboard hack, or any other hack for that. If you don't mind doing the little programs, that would be great. Take your time though, I'm not in any rush. Thanks, Mike
