Spacey Invader Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 With the driving controller you can rotate in one direction without limit. So you just rotate the knob to turn, you don't have to 'center' your wheel (countersteer). Paddles can't rotate at will, you have a limit (400°?). Funny that paddles work much more like a car wheel than the driving controller. Since you can't use the driving controller, I'm only playing with keyboard. I think it's unfair to compare a controller specific designed for Indy 500 with the generic keyboard - or even with the joystick. Don't be silly Lid, use the driving controller! Appreciate the sentiment though. Win this thang if you can ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win this thang if you can Well, I won't make it easy. 38 I guess it's a strong score for keyboard and you deserve to pass if you beat me. On the other hand, I tried the stelladaptor and it worked with Stella + driving controller (otherwise I would have to unpack my Atari). And I tell you, that's REALLY unfair. I think 43, 44 is close to the maximum one could achieve with keyboard... and even then it would be a losing score.

Spacey Invader Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Barring a miracle, I'm out of time this week. I concede ... Barring a miracle. You say the stelladapter recognizes paddles and such? My adapter doesn't see anything except a one-button joystick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to adjust the sensitivity inside of Stella, so it feels more like a real Atari. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keilbaca Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I will be live streaming attempts this weekend. This week, I am getting the area ready for streaming. Got an HDMI capture card, with an s-video to HDMI upscaler. It's going to look like an emulator when I'm done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LidLikesIntellivision Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Nice! I've yet to get to the 4th stage. I got my score by perfect comboing the first two stages with the seeds and killing Wil E. I guess the best strategy is to not let any seed behind. It's difficult to recover the 1000 points per seed and get a good score. To pass the 3rd stage I had to dance with the coyote. 76700 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
