  1. I just send this to BP, but I thought I might just as well post it here too. Am I the only one who thinks the NES mapping is strange? Shouldn't X be B and A be A? As it is now, games like Super Mario Bros is at least for me really tricky to play.

  2. I know Dark forces is playable in PCSXBOX, so I hope it's easy for BP to fix it in CoinOPS.

     

    About Mega Man 8, XBMC changes the name of the game when I FTP it, and I can't seem to change the name. I'm quite new with the Xbox stuff, so it might be easy to fix.

  3. I've tested a few PSX games. These are working great so far:

     

    Castlevania - Symphony of the Night

    Mega Man X4

    Mega Man X5

    Mega Man X6

    Mortal Kombat 4

    Mortal Kombat Trilogy (sound is a little strange sometimes)

    Quake II

    Ridge Racer Revolution

    Tekken 3

    Wipeout 3 (sound is a little strange sometimes)

     

    These are not working:

     

    Final Doom (Freezes at the "loading..." screen)

    Mega Man 8 - Anniversary Collectors Edition (the long game name isn't allowed)

    Star Wars - Dark Forces (Doesn't load. Too bad, this games is fantastic!)

    Worms Armageddon (Doesn't load)

  4. I agree with the people above! CoinOPS runs most things great, but there are also lots of stuff that probably need to be worked on (N64_MarioTennis64 freeze for one), so let's get GamesROOM ready as soon as possible and do the rest afterwards!

  5. I don't know about A or B, but this is the list of games I really think deserves to be in CoinOPS GamesROOM. Of course this is just my own opinion, but feel free to agree or disagree!

     

    GBA:

     

    Chu Chu Rocket

    DK - King of Swing

    Jazz Jackrabbit

    Kuru Kuru Kururin

    Legend of Zelda - The Minish Cap

    Pac-Man Collection

     

    GB:

     

    Donkey Kong

    Kirby's Star Stacker

    Legend of Zelda - Link's Awakening DX

    Legend of Zelda - Oracle of Ages

    Legend of Zelda - Oracle of Seasons

    Metroid II - Return of Samus

    Super Mario Land

    Wario Land - Super Mario Land 3

    Wario Land II

    Wizards & Warriors Chapter X - The Fortress of Fear

     

    NES:

     

    Hudson's Adventure Island 2

    Ice Climber

    Othello

    Paperboy

    Track & Filed II

    Zelda II - The Adventure of Link

     

    PSX:

     

    Final Doom

     

    SMS:

     

    Kenseiden

     

    SNES:

     

    Final Fantasy II

    Final Fantasy III

     

    Mega Drive:

     

    Micro Machines II - Turbo Tournament

    Phantasy Star - The End of The Millenium

     

    To me all these games serve a purpose in the collection. While I'm a fan of the Mega Man games, I do think it's strange to have all 6 NES games in there, while leaving out Ice Climber, which we played to death in Europe back in the day, and Zelda II, which may not be close to as good as the first one, but still an amazing classic. Track & Field II - fencing, taekwondo, arm wrestling, need I say more? I thing SNES Final Fantasy II & III and MD Phantasy Star are just as much, if not more classics than Earthbound for example. And I'm not giving up on Donkey Kong GB, as it's one of the best arcade adventure games ever made. Every game collection should have a good port of DOOM, any version of classic board game Othello and every available Zelda, Mario, Wario and Metroid game released for a Nintendo systems. I believe Kirby's Starstacker, Kuru Kuru Kururin and Chu Chu Rocket are extremely fun and addictive puzzle games. Paper Boy for NES is IMO better than the arcade version.

  6. I just tried a stripped version of Ridge Racer for PSX. It's less than 4 MB (!), yet it's working great! Thought BP sent me a corrupt file at first, but obviously it doesn't need to be any larger. This is very promising, as we will probably all be able to store and play lots and lots of PSX games on our boxes as well! :)

  7. Ill hopefully get around to finishing documentation in the weekend...this bit bores me but so much is new it needs to be done....

     

    sorry while all the toying around was happening I continued with my build.... I do new stuff most days

     

    I'm looking forward to it!

  8. LMAO again & again.

     

    Dude, you really talk like those intellectuals we have here on TV.

     

    Simple, this place is great fun for when I'm bored. ...and it's even funnier when you give an existentialist twist to all this. :)

     

    And english isn't even my native language. How flattering! :)

  9. Indeed. Let's keep this for the record. To see how he can lose his temper.

     

    I like him so much. May he keeps on the high-standard posting.

     

    LMAO

     

    Actually I don't think you're laughing. Isn't your behavior a big cry out loud? Don't you think you appear as a bit desperate for attention? What are you trying to prove and to whom? You didn't fix MK with sound, did you? If you can help, why don't you do that instead? If you can't help, why don't you do something else? Bitterness is ugly.

  10. When you finish this terrible and uninteresting work, I hope you will rest a bit and finally go see a doctor.

    Because you rehash a lot and it worries me a bit anyway.

     

    This is actually getting amusing. Who needs to see a doctor, the one making an effort which lots of people find interesting, or the one who desperately needs to express how uninteresting he finds the effort to the very same people and author? Pretty clear to me. It's like trying to explain to a laughing crowd how boring the joke was. You only stand out as an arse.

    Oh lookie... How amusing to read such a courageous but ignorant little twat... Just try to learn what's behind the scene and happened long before you, lamer...

     

    It's the natural course of development. If you had invented the wheel, would you be complaining at the people driving around in cars? Yes, you probably would, and I would find that amusing too.

     

    Now let's all look forward to BP's fantastic CoinOPS Epic!

  12. Personally I think the lock is a bad idea, although I can understand why you do it. However, punishment rarely works. I love the console part, and I guess lots of us do. For those who doesn't I don't see why there has to be a lock just because a few annoying persons give you a hard time. Haven't been around for 3 months, so I guess it doesn't make a difference. Still, I think almost everyone appreciate your fantastic work, lock or not, and I see no good reason to have it.

     

    Cheers! :)

  13. OK a few people have mentioned naming of games grrrr was first....I can change it easy enough id guess....in highinsight I was talked into using xtras stuff and it wasnt really the right choice I knew that then really but a few people wanted this so...a bad idea as this has caused me alot of work as many games where missing....do you guys want me to fix the naming conventions etc it will mean old roms probably wont ???

     

    also adding a few new features :)

     

    ...old roms probably won't... work? If that's the case I don't care about the names.

     

    And sorry about the readme. ;) I've spanked myself several times and won't ask obvious questions again.

  14. any other sorting options or naming tags you want?? or can think of

     

    I think The Legend of Zelda (SNES= should have it's full proper name with the added - A Link To The Past. Actually, IMO all games which have a subtitle would look better in the menu with the added "-". Like:

     

    Castlevania - Bloodlines

    Castlevania - Dracula X

    Casltevania - Circle Of The Moon

    Castlevania III - Draculas Curse

     

    etc.

     

    Ofcourse, these things are not really important and might be a matter of taste. That's why I thought maybe adding an option to rename stuff on your own would be a good idea.

     

    Another thing I came to think about is an option to reduce the video screen size in the menu. I played around with the options and thought I found it, but there's no difference from what I could tell. I really love some of the old Game Boy games, but they look terrible on a full 40" widescreen. Just as I prefer to reduce the screen sice when playing them, it would be nice to able to do the same with the videos in the menu.

  15. Added option to

    Add to the end of home games (previous option of * only)

     

     

    Galaxian

    Sonic the Hedgehog *

    Uridium *

     

    or console name

     

    Galaxian

    Sonic the Hedgehog (Megadrive)

    Uridium (Commodore 64)

     

    Cheers!

     

    I'm actually biddig on a second xbox with much bigger hd just for this build.

     

    I've shown CoinOPS Showroom for a few friends, and they all seem pretty convinced that they need to get an Xbox 1 right away! :)

  16. This is probably too late, but a suggestion for future releases...

     

    Since gb and gbc games use a screen sice which is very different from gba, the user is forced to correct this every time changing between those formats. I think it would be great if you had one screen setting for gb and gbc, and one for gba. Also, if possible, it would be cool if super gameboy colors could be switched on and off for those old gb games.

     

    Wouldn't a reset feature in the mame ingame menu be useful? You start a game, get killed instantly, and want to start over. Sometimes killing your remaining lives to get back to the start screen feels like forever.

     

    Some original titles with secuels in CoinOPS are named "I". Personally I think that looks strange. Maybe an option to rename the titles in the menu would be useful?

     

    Anyway, keep up the great work! Thank you!

  17. If it's not too late to add games, I've got a few more suggestions of great games not yet included.

     

    GBA:

     

    Chu Chu Rocket

    Kuru Kuru Kururin

    Pac-Man Collection (It's got Pac-Man Arrangements included, which is fantastic)

    Pokemon Pinball - Ruby & Saphire

     

    NES:

     

    Blades of Steel

    Ice Climber (The Game that the first NES owners in Sweden got included. A true Classic!)

    Track & Field II

    Zelda II - Adventure of Link (I know, it' not arcade, still an amazing classic)
