Here here!

Bah! Shoulda played it on an Atari 800/xl for it to be played properly.

Geez, I spent $70 on that game when it first came out and found a cheap way to beat it the first night. Hey Linkovich, would you consider putting a link to your JagCD repair site in your sig?

Just as soon as I bash others for not taking care of their system, my CD player takes a vacation. Its reading with the ?. Its always done this every now and then, but now it seems to be for the duration. I'm going to try the not plugging the power supplies in before having them together. And um, how is the laser intensity adjusted? Hmmm??

How in the hell are you guys breaking your Jaguars? I still got the same one from 1993 and it runs fine. I take care of it. I still got my 800xl I bought back in '84 and it runs fine.

I have memory save problems with Pinball Fantasies. Its like a bad connection in there or something. It will work for a while, then erase everything and not work, and then work again. And then do it all over.

It had nothing to do with Battlesphere JW. You're just an asshole. Just kidding. :wink:

E-bay Cocaine.

There's another thing I gotta buy. Dammit.

Nonsense! Spend! Spend! Then Jpeg the Polaroid snapshot of the lump she puts on your noggin and post it in this thread! It'll be hysterical!

Is it Andrew Whittakker? Do I win a prize if I guess right?

Thanks Nukey Shay! I musta missed those threads! Last time I edited it took about a minute. This time it booted me. But I guess they are going to change forum software eh? That'll be cool to see what the new setup is like. Is it going to look exactly the same? Or a different layout for the forums itself?

Is there any chance we can get the edit function on this board fixed? 90% of the time when I try to edit one of my posts for mistakes or omissions, things go terribly wrong. Like just a few minutes ago it completely disconnected me from the site after waiting for five minutes after hitting the submit button. Now I get here and find out my edit didn't take.

Anyone remember the Gameboy Color for the SNES? Remember how it was a cartridge that fit into the SNES with the circuitry it needed to emulate the Gameboy? Then you fit the Gameboy cartridge in there and played it on your SNES? Anyways, I was thinking something like that would of been cool for the JagCD. Instead of emulating anything, it would of pumped up the Jags main RAM and Video RAM and then you plug in the little memory track inside of it to save CD games. Ah, to dream huh?

I love a good debate. How about you Link?

The Predator AI in AvP is very good. But the Alien AI seems minimal. Any flanking you see is accidentlal because they are coming out of a room beside you. Or maybe happen to slide around a round table and some of them end up on one side of you. Usually though, they get stuck on these obstacles. They are always facing you because they are one dimensional bitmaps for the aliens. Andrew is making claims that they can run off and warn the others or something like that in one of the interviews. They'd have to be able to turn around and look away from you to do that. Has anyone seen one of the Aliens in AvP running away from them backwards? I haven't. Althouh i is cool he is giving interviews for the community.

I wholeheartedly agree with you on this.

Well, maybe he's just not a very good stalker.

Well, I think Doom runs great on the Jag. But if you don't think it works good, you gotta remember it was their first time programming on the Jag. They were just learning it.

That's hysterical. I think in the Middle Ages that was considered romantic.

As Agrandeu said, this was their first time on the Jag. In the JEO Battlesphere updates as it was being developed, Scato claimed with what they had learned about the Jag they could get the Jag to do Doom at 320x240 at 30fps 'EASILY'. This is paraphrased from memory but I'm sure the rez I gave and the speed are correct, and that the word EASILY was used. But there is a chance I could be mistaken. What I remember as the main problem, is the high speed video memory to do something like Quake. The Jag may not have adequate video RAM to throw the textured polygons to the screen fast enough. I think the analogy was that if a Jag had the same amount of memory as a Pentium 100, whatever that would be depending on the machine. Say 32mb and 1mb video ram. The Jag would match it or beat it in performance. This is my memory and understanding of what I read in posts on JI2 and other places.

I believe about a little over a year ago on JI2 T-bird said the Jag's overall processing ability was about equivalent to a 100mhz pentium. But this was over a year ago, so my memory might be in error.

I see you have a new copy of Syndicate available. And also a copy(used) of Theme park with instructions. Those are some pretty competitive prices. I do believe I will be doing some trading with you shortly.

Well, I've learned something from this thread. Those who picked Wolf3d over JagDoom are all out of their minds!

Doom over Wolfenstein for me. Doom has the lighting, the angles, the textures. Also the characters in JagDoom are 3 dimensional, whereas in Wolf3d they are only two dimensional. Even the PC version of Wolf3d the characters are 3-d. The missing music for me is nothing since I also have the PC version and the PC in game music is nothing great or memeorable. I want music, I'll listen to the radio. :wink:
