Robot Odyssey original user guide in pdf format available

I don't know if the original user guide for Robot Odyssey exists anywhere else, but I have it in pdf format if anyone wants a copy. Leave a reply if you need it.

Saccade There is a patcher here to do this fix for you - it may work for you:
http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/sho...45&postcount=6

if not:
http://groups.google.co.uk/group/trg...exes.zip?hl=en
these exe's should work if you overwrite the ones you have with them and use PLAY.EXE to start the game, as usual.

I don't know why they're any different to the ones here, but the crack above seemed to screw something up.
These are patched exe's from another copy of this game.

there is a similar game called droidbot or something close, that is a java clone
The name of java clone is Droidquest. But this game is not 100% finished. Some bugs present and graphics absent.

Thanks a lot! But your patch has one side effect. Under DosBox emulator graphics rendering have interlacing after your patch applied. So, IMHO, it is better not to fix rendering at all.
Moreover, I think not everyone can apply this patch easily. I prefer to play this type of games under DOSBOX emulator. Based on your patch I made simple one, which removes just copy protection and leave all other parts of game:

ROBOT ODYSSEY copy protection fix.
Original patch: http://svn.navi.cx/misc/trunk/python...sey_patcher.py


GAME.EXE

Find offset: 0x1A8C0: EB 18 90
Change: 31 C0 CB

LAB.EXE

Find offset: 0x15690: EB 18 90
Change: 31 C0 CB
==============================
Enjoy.

solution

There is a protection. I tried this script - it works fine.
http://svn.navi.cx/misc/trunk/python...sey_patcher.py
I instaled nasm and active python in order to execute the script.
You need to patch GAME.EXE, LAB.EXE and TUT.EXE.
See the comments in the code of the script for details.
(I chose command line options -k -r 20 -f and it works fine on DOSBox)

I am having same issue

I can't solder in the real game either. Does anyone have an answer?

can't wire the bots!

I was so thrilled to find this game after having played it over 20 years ago!

However, when I got to my first wiring job in the subway, to get the token, I found to my dismay that my soldering pen wouldn't work! I couldn't wire a thing.

Curiously, I could wire just fine in the tutorials. Any idea why I wouldn't be able to wire in the main game? I couldn't wire in the sewer either, though of course you don't need to til the subway.

help please:)

I just found this game and I love it. I used to play this for hours and hours and I never got past the subway. Now that I'm 29 I think maybe I'm going to beat this game finally?

However - for some reason I cannot solder in the innovation lab. I seem to remember this being a bug even when I was playing from the disks on my tandy. How do I get that to work? I really need to be able to practice stuff in the lab.

Thanks for any help and thanks to abandonia!!!
