Hello, I need help with Dreadline. I updated my Intellivision Sprint and put all the files into my USB drive. Everything shows up, but when I click on the game the graphics are all jumbled up. You can hear the game just fine and even start the game, but the graphics are all jumbled up and glitched. I've tried installing on a different USB drive all by itself and I get the same result. Not sure what to do. Thank you for your help.

Problem has now been resolved. I was only downloading the update from Atari.com. Someone at AtariAge informed me that I needed to get the newer updates from AtariAge. Once I did that the game now works perfect. Also, thank you for such a cool game. I love the graveyard background with fog and the awesome picture reveal at the end. You've made a very fun game. This will be great for my Halloween show I do on my Youtube channel.
The latest 1.2 should be enough to work.
The main issue is that the emulator inside the Sprint was not reading the JSON properly, in particular the line that says "jzintv_extra".
That is vital for enabling expanded GRAM for Dreadline, otherwise graphics will be messed up.
Mechatron does not incur the same issue, but certainly having the latest firmware can't hurt.
