How many levels are there? I've only had time to play once and that go was curtailed thanks to my son demanding to take the controls (he's 4, so you can imagine how well that ended ) To be fair, he did keep on restarting and attempting the first level - that's more than I can say for the few commercial jaguar games he's sat in front of!

How has this not been posted yet? Retro VGS
sh3-rg replied to racerx's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Exactly. They shot their load early again. Big sites have picked up the news because it has an angle - Coleco, yet the crowdfunding is some time away. Last time it was the Jaguar case. When the KS goes live, it'll likely be largely ignored the same as last time as it won't be newsworthy enough -
Contents were on the Jaguar PD repo, but untergrund.net is down...
-
So it could be a cart hardware revision issue, a Jag CD-related issue or something else such as Jaguar revision vs those issues or something else entirely.

EDIT: FFS Schizophretard, lolol, I expect to be beaten by one minute posting on GAF, but not AA glad I didn't post lyrics as well now hehe original post: Leaked ad concept: Sounds like some kind of miracle hair(piece) growth formula. -

Coleco... name doesn't really resonate with me on any level. Maybe that's because I'm not from the US, I dunno. Is it a triforce of failures? hah, I saw that, some people's views are more than a little clouded by their inner feels. Not something that could just be excused due to being too young to know better. -
Your list is missing Orion's collection on cart and as CJ said, Downfall+. Rocketeer is not a release. There were carts made of other things like betas and stuff, probably through/via js2 forum. Can't think of anything else.

Would buy on Jaguar Cinepak CD

Oh wow that was an 11 year necrobump... DMA! DMA! DMA! :0)

Translucent RED Jaguar Console Shells - ORDER NOW
sh3-rg replied to Parrothead's topic in Atari Jaguar
Gaz was sent fronts only by mistake? Semi-related: When I ordered a large number of cart shells from Telegames UK a good while ago, they imported them from the US (no idea where exactly). They were new ones, in original cartons, not pulls, but the guy told me there was a pricing error and the price he quoted was per piece of plastic, not the two halves (lolol) but said as a one-off he'd let it slide. Seemed utterly bizarre at the time, but now just one of those things that adds up to producing Jaguar carts being an utter pain in the arse from start to finish... no way were we ever going to pay 2x that price for a repeat order. -
Hey Mathieu, that's not even the worst of it - the poor guy never even got paid for his work! Not a penny. Other stuff later occurred that was just as annoying, but won't go into that here. Careful, I spoke with Fabrice about AK and it was probably the last thing he wanted to talk about - still not a happy chappie at all, after all those years.
-
Funniest thing I read on AA in weeks! It's actually all CJ, not a Reboot thing. But yeah, the Bitmaps had some really good games that would translate well to the Jaguar.

OK, when you see them all lined up like that... notbad.gif

Translucent RED Jaguar Console Shells - ORDER NOW
sh3-rg replied to Parrothead's topic in Atari Jaguar
I asked Mike about a bulk order for cart shells. While there was a discount for bulk buying, the cost to meet a large run of a game was not something that looked doable or sensible... to the point where, if it looked like more releases might happen it'd be cheaper to have our own custom mould made and produce our own plastics (which is still a stupid amount of money and not going to happen either). -
Translucent RED Jaguar Console Shells - ORDER NOW
sh3-rg replied to Parrothead's topic in Atari Jaguar
That's how it'll be, the molds are modified now and that's what they produce. -
Thanks for sharing that.

http://www.gamesradar.com/worst-games-all-time/ It made the top 10, won't spoil the exact position.

Agreed. After playing it again in the last few days it all felt a bit too plain and samey.

Could Road Rash (3DO) be ported to the Jaguar?
sh3-rg replied to Rick Dangerous's topic in Atari Jaguar
I think it's reasonable that if you make a claim, you present your results accurately, otherwise it is misleading. He's been spouting his 60fps texture mapping claims in the interwebs backwaters for a year or more. Given what he's offered now, that's kind of... Your PC specs make no difference at all - your machine can either run VJ at full speed or not. In your case, it appeared to struggle with the first video you posted. I was only interested in your PC specs as VJ itself seemed to struggle to report 60fps, which given my old gaming laptop that has run 8 instances of VJ at 60fps, it seemed like you might be running it on an only desktop calculator or something and therefore we'd have been presented with something even less useful than offered. And FFS - seeing "60 fps" in the VJ window, DOES NOT mean the software is running in a frame, jesus. This is why emulation is worthless when showing off your greatness: VJ is not cycle accurate. It's a really valuable and probably my favourite Jaguar tool available, but it is not something ratified by ANSI able to produce a 1:1 experience with the real thing. It's like a Jaguar on whizz, coked up the the eyeballs holding a can of red bull in each hand. Yet sometimes, if you do devious stuff with the DSP, you can even make it run slower! There's a reason why the special one prefers his stuff to be shown off in VJ as opposed to capturing actual hardware output. But whatever, let people lap it up, imagine the great games you'll all be playing a few weeks from now, *thumps up* Thanks for that. Here's some very basic info on emulation: http://emulation-general.wikia.com/wiki/Emulation_Accuracy See specifically "cycle accurate" and imagine the implications of an emulator that offers you a Jaguar Atari themselves could never have dreamed of producing due to its raw power. Because it's cool to hang out with stupid old ginger men who lurk the interwebs pretending to be teenage girls... well, I can't speak for everyone, but still. Surely you mean pushing Jag emulation? Amirite? tl;dr Keep drinking the Kool Aid kids. Fill yer boots. Drop a few sugar bombs in there. #BELIEVE -
Could Road Rash (3DO) be ported to the Jaguar?
sh3-rg replied to Rick Dangerous's topic in Atari Jaguar
I don't see it as being petty. The difference between Virtual Jaguar output vs Jaguar hardware can be quite drastic, there's more than enough reason to insist on doing things in a meaningful manner, especially when someone is shining the spot-light down on themselves and making lofty claims. When it's simply a matter of taking advantage of the setups many users here have, even more so. You have a gaming-spec PC running VJ - as much as your video does show regarding what he created in one weekend (a mere 16 hours!), from a technical perspective, the video has no merit. That he chose yourself to produce this vs 4+ other users who could capture the RGB output from hardware is telling IMO. If you would like an example of this phenomena, take a look at my Checkered Flag emulation video and compare it to actual hardware. that's the kind of gulf that can exist between the two, but not nearly the limit of it. This kind of mistake would easily be forgiven if it was a matter of him being unaware of the differences and lack of worthwhile data to be obtained, but it's at least the third instance of this very same outcome. And at this point there is only one sensible conclusion to be drawn. I only replied to you directly, didn't I? That was my intention or at least that's the way I thought I left it. Did you take my post as an attack on your good self? No, I totally understood your motives and even walked a similar path in the past - offering services to the guy and attempting to give him the benefit of the doubt - in order to force his hand a little... only to receive the usual outcome. My words were regarding the special one himself and the super special permission he gave you to record the video under emulation. If you wish to see examples of petty or worse - look no further than the 4-letter-word tirade he spouted at me for merely suggesting we obtain some meaningful Jaguar hardware output. Look to the constant puerile use of "haters club" and "sub-8-bit" mincing he constantly trots out... that's petty. f Clear the screen? Double buffering? Clipping? I imagine all those will come free and won't slow anything down at all /s This is the only real issue here and the one I have posted regarding in this and other threads he is involved in - their only worth is to seek to deceive those who know no better and further bolster his claims of leetness vs lol-8-bit lamers he sees all around him. While that sentiment isn't lost on me, maybe given [REDACTED]your general xunty disposition (lolol), maybe it's best to just stay the heck away from interacting with this joker as you're both fueling his fire and risking your own well being. It might be keyboard warrior fun and games to him but the repercussions for yourself are not worth the risk. At. All. In fact I'll do the same, wash my hands of this sorry mess... Let him promise the earth, make his excuses and fade back into obscurity in the best traditions of Jaguar vapourware peddlers of days gone by. That way, the only people who get hurt are the genuine fans, and maybe the only way they will learn these lessons is in fact the hard way. -
Could Road Rash (3DO) be ported to the Jaguar?
sh3-rg replied to Rick Dangerous's topic in Atari Jaguar
Not this. People didn't necessarily want anything at all. What they did not want was more of the same meaningless emulator "proof". What people want anyone (not just him) to show, is something that can be viewed and assessed in some kind of meaningful context. The why is not "lol, why did you even do this?", the why is "why am I watching this video of a routine under emulation, on what we now know is a beefy i7 PC that seems to be struggling" when that situation is entirely avoidable. Pointless. Do you think there might possibly be a reason for his over-reactive meltdown, laden with all the effs and hate and whatnot, the one that had to be deleted but remains preserved as quoted. The one that came in response when I pointed out that at least 4 users here have the ability to capture frame-by-frame accurate RGB Jaguar hardware output that would be unequivocal in the evidence provided vs any claims made? Ask yourself this - why would that be? What would anyone possibly have against that? Maybe because it wouldn't suit his narrative as it'd shoot down his hyperbolic self-promotion on the spot when the actual results on hardware expose the reality of the situation? Given his history, you don't even see this as a possibility? At this point it's little more than a troll, designed to mislead the technically-bereft gamer into believing black is white. You make vague claims but offer no specific examples. Who said that? From a technical perspective, it proves nothing, it only prompts further questions - and this suits his tried and tested modus operandi. As for all done on a weekend - believe what you will - he's been championing his texture mapping routines for the best part of the year, the claims of them running at 60fps are nothing new to this or any other AA thread. That he has taken it upon himself to appear here, restate them and proceed to follow the same well-worn path of not-Hero and not-Klax, which barely even raised an eyebrow to those who know better, just sighs and a collective shaking of heads. But then we're not his intended audience. That would be the likes of yourself who do not know better are therefore easy prey. But why the same old song and dance? Most people don't require the spotlight to be on them before working on a few routines, they just get their head down and crack on then present something when its ready with no obfustication or smoke and mirrors. A history of no game output. A history of riling up trouble. A history of claiming to be able to do x in y weekends. None of this seems at all familiar to you? He will do what he always does - emoragequit in as loud and obnoxious manner as possible, point fingers on the way out and spend the next 12 months slagging off AA and all who sail in her. Vladr be like: LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! DON'T LOOK AT HIM! LOOK AT ME! WOO WOO I'M THE BEST LOOK AT ME! ...without even an inkling as to how ridiculous it looks... as the rest look on knowingly. -
Tea. Earl Grey. Scalding...
