    Last Ninja, Chaos Strikes Back & Dark Castle

    I have spent a few hours trying to get Chaos Strikes Back to work, but to no avail. I remember it was a pain to start a game with the original, but this shatters all records... Here is what I do: - start disk 1, select 4 characters & save to disk (a disk I have created with moron - test.st). I...

    CaSTaway GP feedback

    Hi, I just tried the Med res trick & it works just fine. Thanks for the tip. As for the saves, I suppose it doesn't really matter if you end up including save states. Thanks for all the help, Loic

    Amberstar

    Hi, I have been trying to get the game to run forever. Here are a few facts: - the German version works perfectly. unfortunately, I don't speak German - The English version is the install version. Fine I say, I can deal with a simple install... - I have 3 different version, one is the official...

    I tried the game in a PC emu & I have the same problem, so I assume this is hopeless :(

    Skeezix, you are so vain :) Glad to see we finally found a valid argument for save states.... Good luck, Loic

    CaSTaway GP feedback

    Here are some things I have been looking for (I know, I repeat myself - it comes with age...): - linear contrast change - selectable resolutions - mainly to avoid the small green screens that appear in some games (hounds of shadows, magnetic scrolls games,...) - save states. There are a lot of...

    CaSTaway/GP incompatabilities

    Just to have this on the thread. All these have been tested severall times with different files & these problems are consistent regardless of the version: - Last Ninja (4 disks) & 1943: When I use the Joystick, it is impossible to go in a direction & press FIRE (quite problematic to be standing...

    Barbarian (Palace)

    Hi, I have tried two different versions (stand alone, not from menus) & each time I press either F1 or F3, it goes automatically into demo mode. I tried pretty much everything, but I absolutely cannot start the game... Can ayone point to a 100% working version (preferably stand alone & if...

    Last Ninja, Chaos Strikes Back & Dark Castle

    Ok here are three more games that are causing me problems: - Last ninja: The game load fine, but when I try to Kick or Punch, it doesn't work (quite problematic since a good part of the game revolves around fighting). Any idea why this is happening ? I am using the Joystick: I press fire & a...

    Dungeon Master.. expected behavior?

    I agree, that is an extremely good idea. I have had the need for such an option on a few occasions (the most notable being while loading Gods - the stand alone version freezes at the loading screen) Maybe several indicators (all switchable) could be added: - disk access - heavy unpacking (so we...

    Keyboard + misc)

    Hi, for the keys, so far I found: - / for hounds of shadows - Shift for north & south & that's the ones I figured out. There are probably some more like these two... Loic

    HowTo: Adding to the games database

    Hi, I will test the waters with the cynix menus (should be extremely fast) & I will deal with the SuperGAU (now we're getting serious...) right after that. If things go well, I should have that done this weekend. No promise, though... Loic

    Save State

    Hi, one save state per disk should be enough, although multiple would be nice. One thin, though, is that the saves need to be in a separate directory. As it stands right now, the save option saves in the main directory, which can be cumbersome... Being able to reload the state automatically when...

    Save State

    100% agree, save state would be Heaven... I have plenty of time, but I am unwilling to go through the overly frustrating lack of saves in some games. Saving only at save point (or not being able to save at all ) is an artificial way of making the games longer (welcome to the console world). A...

    Keyboard + misc)

    Hi, Here are misc things I found might improve the emu (some of them are repeats from other threads - sorry about that): - While testing various games, I have noticed that some require more than the basic set of keys to play. Any chance to to emulate the full keyboard (so far especially Shift &...

    Airball

    Hi, I have tried to play airball on CaSTaway. I can load the game just fine, I can select my controls & then, when I try to play (by pressing fire) it goes into demo mode. Am I doing anything wrong ? Has anyone successfully played the game ? Thanks for any help, Loic

    Castaway Games List

    Yes, I have had the problem occasionally. You need to turn off your GP32 & then reboot everything. I have uploaded more games to my SMC, so I don't have Elvira 2 anymore, but the first disk is 840K. I know I have tried 2 versions of the game & I never had a problem with any... Time to update my...
