The list of programmers credited for both the Playstaion and Saturn port of Batman is quite short:
Sadly Carl Wade passed away in 2011 at the young age of 40, a fond memory of him by his friend and co-worker Stephen Broumley was a function he added to batman called TheWholeKitAndCaboodle when the player completed the game 2.
It just goes to show the importance of preserving the development of these games, just like all art it is an outlet for the creators to show off their unique personalities and humour.
The PS1 version has no references to “PSYQ” at all and all the file extensions are completely different, so it looks like a rewrite of the game rather than a port.
The main game executable SLES_005.25 contains 318 functions when disassembling.
Contains a few different executables:
BM1.EXE (2677 functions) - Main game?DOS4GW.EXE - DOS memory extenderFRONTEND.EXE - Batman Menu? (780 functions)I.EXE - Game InstallerNote for FrontEnd.exe you need to set IDA Pro to MS-DOS executable (Not the default LinearExecutable and Pentium 4 processor). But for BM1.EXE stick to LinearExecutable.
