Re: Tempest 2000 joystick support

I downloaded the Gravis utilility for their gamepads and I could make some tests in realtime. Button 3 and 4 are only recognized if you choose on the OSD menu "2 Sticks" instead of "2 Joysticks" Not sure the difference but now I can play Tempest 2000 properly with an arcade joystick. To me it's the second best version after the ...

Re: Tempest 2000 joystick support

@mikeboss: the DOS version is the more faithful version to the original Jaguar. YAK was really pissed off by the PS1 port, read here: https://web.archive.org/web/20091026182214/http://geocities.com/~irata/tx3.html PS: cannot speak about the Saturn port as I didn't play it. The most annoying thing of the PS1 port is that the controls are not as tigh...

Re: Tempest 2000 joystick support

Tempest X3 on PS1 is a bad port unfortunately and not faithful to the original Tempest 2000.

it was not programmed by YAK and they changed gameplay heavily

Also the controls are very laggy in comparison to the Jaguar and DOS release.

Tempest 2000 joystick support

Hello, I am trying to play Tempest 2000 with a joystick. Tempest 2000 requires at least 3 buttons ( fire, zap and jump) but there is no way to use the third button even if I choose 4-buttons joystick from OSD menu. It only recognize 2 buttons. If I choose the Gravis Pro gamepad in the OSD menu, the game starts to push buttons casually, probably bec...

Re: Amiga/Microvitec 1438S Multisync as the Only Monitor on The MiSTer?

Re: Slap Fight Not Downloading

Alcon is the export version. The CPU roms are also different and on the original game there is a different part number MCU, but I really don't know if there a difference in gameplay

Alcon was also made as a proper Jamma pcb , while Slap Fight was only pre jamma if I recall correctly

Re: Congo Bongo Released

Congo bongo use an 8 way digital joystick Sorry, I’m not sure where you’re getting that Congo Bongo was an 8-way digital joystick. It was a 4-way stick, rotated 45 degrees, and it recognized diagonal inputs (just like Q-Bert). Since most people will not use a 4-way stick in that fashion, I’m requesting a software option, dip setting, whatever….be ...

World Rally Fever Help to Run It

I downloaded this game from Exodos collection and added manually to Total Dos launcher.

It stops loading after the Microprose / Team 17 logo

Has anyone succesfully tried this game in AO486?
It's a cool Power drift like racing game

Re: AO486 14092022 update instability

I reverted to the old March core and the games were working again.

Decided to try again the new core and now both games work. Don't know why as previously I tried lot of times by powering off, reset the core and so on.

AO486 14092022 update instability

Since the last update of the A0486 core I noticed some instability issues and some games don't start anymore.

examples:
Ecstatica crashes very often
Ecstatica 2 doesn't start anymore

I reverted back to March core and everything is fine.

Does anyone has same issues?

it seems the new update of the core breaks direct video. All games are fixed to 31khz instead of switching to 15khz when needed My understanding is that latest build from the core developer is missing the video changes made by Kintrix so reverts back to 31khz only. It’s a shame but the solution is to to use an older build. it's really a pity. if y...
