Nothing new? :(
When set in NTSC mode the screen gets cropped since it was forcedly centered and moved down for PAL mode (which looks sqashed in proportion though!). The vertical overscan should be corrected through a startup option...

Yes, a custom option to better center the game vertically would be really appreciated...

A custom option to re-center vertically the game ignoring default settings would be the best solution when playing in NTSC.

Ross did a fix to play the game in NTSC.

Is it possible to apply his fix to the slave?

Hexaae has uploaded Ross Darkseed fixes for both floppy and CD32 version for you now.

If you are going to update the slave i think Ross would be happy if you gave him credit fot it.
