Boulderdash 2 Cave K level 5 (msx emulator on psp)

Post by imqqmi »

I've been playing through many levels of BD 2 and so far have been able to play from cabe A through to P at level 1 and some at 2. I'm now playing it at level 5. Level K however wants 27 diamond but there really are only 26. Is there a way to finish it? Is there a way to free the boulder at the start to drop it on a shifting diamond converting wall?

Thanks!

Sounds like it could be error; in the original BD2 there are 28 diamonds available on K/5. Did you miss one or two by any chance?
Boulders are round.
Fireflies are square.

Thanks for replying. Nope, I can use saved states and I've been running through every corner in that level to no avail. 26 diamonds and nothing more :(

Would it be possible to set the required 27 to 26 so that I can continue playing? I can use an hexeditor but I'd need help finding the pattern.

Thanks!

That's odd :shock:. I bet hex editing would work, but I have no skill in that. Maybe one of the experts will know what to change, though.

Hi imqqmi,
in the original version, as RTADash said, there are definitely 28 diamonds to collect. What version do you have? Perhaps someone can post a map of K/5 (I still don't know how to do this :( ), so that you can compare it with your level and then you tell us which 2 diamonds are missing? I don't really now how to change the required diamonds...

Cheers Dustin
