Rick Dangerous Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Does this exist somewhere. I could be bothered to flash this to my skunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh3-rg Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Love the cheeky use of THAT FONT - nice one. So there's this and CJ's Invaders Raptor demo... kind of wonder if I should bother carrying on with my own invaders game. Looks nothing like those two though, so... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh3-rg Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) Think it requires some 60Hz testing - the Removers text is off the screen on the menu (mostly). Game blackscreens at both 50 and 60Hz as soon as the game is started on this particular machine I have set up with a skunk2 (anywhere from instantly to approx 1.5 seconds after game screen is shown). Game says "Press Fire" - the de facto fire button on Jaguar is B, might be best to switch to that from A. If whoever the mystery coder is wants a tester who knows his arse from his elbow, won't just say "well done, great!" but offer useful feedback and has multiple revisions of hardware for both PAL/NTSC/50/60 then e-mail sh3-rg at ntlworld.com If this has been coded entirely using the emulator as a target, there are a few things to be aware of that might be getting missed. EDIT: VJ died running this. A converted JiFFI ROM made it as far as running via skunk - black screen after pressing A.

sh3-rg Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Red screen in VJ. Enjoyable video though. I had an old version of VJ that would always red screen with a bjl-style file the first time I tried to load it, but worked the second. Try it twice, just to be sure if you see that if you're not using the latest builds of VJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felyx Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) Thank you for the addition of the download link on Youtube. Convert the file with Jiffi to J64 then it works with Virtual Jaguar but freeze during the game after one minute.

Felyx Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I could play it but I admit I didn't payed attention to what button I pressed so you should be right: it works as long as you don't press A button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 OK, if you graze the A button like its some sort of reaction timer test you can get the game to start, and sometimes the invaders will even move and fire shots - but the instant you try and do anything yourself.. boom! If whoever wrote it would like some help or, as sh3 said above, if they'd like some useful feedback, I'd be happy to help out or discuss here on AA.

sh3-rg Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Oh that's a good sign at least. Trying stuff on hardware when it's never been out of an emulator can be a bit demotivating if to doesn't go to plan, but it might not need a whole lot of fixing.

I've posted on the video regarding the results above, maybe he will make an account and post here (or at least reply on yt). Just noticed the YT video says it's done in Project Tempest. That's not the best dev environment if that's how he's made it, VJ & skunk combo FTW. Edited March 31, 2015 by sh3-rg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh3-rg Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 http://www.atari.org.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?id=12380&p=2 more info PL forum Google translate did a fair job at translating that, but it seems like this has been an ongoing issue for his game? That's a shame :/ Without an account I cannot grab the different builds or see the photos of it running on someone's machine... Is there a version that works on skunk/VJ? Emulators are a little forgiving in some respects, some more than others. Project Tempest is possibly the worst emulator to use for development, it's just not going to give an accurate picture of what hardware results will be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felyx Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) New try this evening this time I paid attention to what button I pressed: Then the game start by pressing A, A is the only button to fire and it works in VJ (on Mac Intel) but only for something like 20 seconds then the game is freezing. i have not burn a CD but to make it works on VJ I used Jiffi to get a j64 file. You should have heard about jiffi, it is just the best things ever from human kind that changed our lives (with Einstein's E=MC2 ) Edited March 31, 2015 by Felyx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riggs Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hello everybody! JMSI was developing with an emulator-Project Tempest, and it was a very, very bad idea. I have been spending a lot of time to make it working on a real Jaguar The "Youtube version" is not the latest one, but it worked on a few Jags, you should _load_ it with Skunkboard into the Jag's RAM , don't flash it- it will crash! I'm on holiday for 2 weeks, so be patient, and wait for updates Regards riggs P.s. Thanks for the Feedbacks 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Thanks for making an account and giving us more details, Riggs. I need to try on some of my other Jaguars, the one I'm currently using does not want to cooperate. There are definitely people here who can help you track down the issues preventing your game working on different machines. Oh and very nice to see more people making Jaguar games \o/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riggs Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Hi guys! I'm back There is an update: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=37972930586552755677 it works(!?) on the Jaguar, but you have to load it to the Jag's RAM, do not flash it! Of course feedback are always welcome 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Not working here, after pressing A there's a brief show of the space invaders then a black screen, nothing ever gets moving. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
