    Default Odd color change in Asteroids Dx in Hyperspin

    This is just a curiosity. I wanted to see if anyone here might be able to explain it though.

    When I run Asteroids Deluxe (any revision) through the Mame exe directly, the vector graphics have a bluish tint (compared to the original Asteroids' white vectors). But when I launch Asteroids Deluxe in Hyperspin or Hyperlaunch, it looks white, like the original.

    It's not really important, but I was just wondering.

    It could be actually running the original rather than the Deluxe version, maybe a small error

    You can tell by the year it was made on the start screen 1979 = Original / 1980 = Deluxe

    The games don't really look much different

    I already checked dip switch options, there was nothing that would change the colours or any cheats

    The other option is just poor emulation

    Thanks for the reply, Zorlon. I had looked at the date, it is running Deluxe. The only thing I can think of is some odd setting in Hyperlaunch, because it looks right running directly in Mame. I think it's probably more a question for the Hyperspin gurus, but unfortunately, the HS crown don't allow rom discussion over there. Maybe I could try phrasing the question completely hypothetically.
