Dkongx (Donkey Kong II : Jumpman Returns

[Thenasty]

Was happy to see this added in v4.0 and Itried it.

Does it really WORK ?

All I get is a screen (settings) with some BAD messages and say Press Button etc... but when I do, Game is not working (screen is all garbled).

Hope someone tells what the status with this game is cause it states in the Whatsnew, It's working.
Made sure I got the ROM and checked each CRC and all matched.

Just in case, I am running Advmame in PURE DOS.

You are right, it's not working...

[Thenasty]

Thanks for the quick reply Andrea.

Also when I tried Hammer Away (also states that it is working), it's not working.
(New Working Hammer Away (#120) [arcadez2003])

I just gave up on it.

Glad the Mspactwin is working (filename should be converted to 8.3 (mspactwi). The saved hi-scores is mspactwin.hi (9.3).
Like I mentioned on my previost post, I just load DOSLFN to mspactwin working.

Thanks, maybe on the next version.

I been using DOS ever since and I never upgraded. I only use Advmame in my cabinet.

Thanks for all the hard work.

Are you referring to the release 4.0? The work in progress build should have Hammer Away working and Mspactwin renamed to Mspactwn.

Anyway, you can get the prerelease here: https://ftp.advancemame.it/

You can check the pull request list to have an idea of the changes: https://github.com/amadvance/advancemame/pulls?q=is%3Apr

The version 188 at https://ftp.advancemame.it/ should have now dkongx working.

Thanks for the Update Andrea.

v4.0-188 dkongx now works (just a little glitch on the sound of Kong screaming (before game begins. Garbled for some reason).

Hammer Away Sound now Works.

Thanks for making the Ms. Pacman Twin True Dos 8.3 (mspactwn.zip).

Have a question I can't seem to figure out about dkongx.

I have this script to push P1-Button1 to bypass that Seetings Menu when game boots up.

dkongx/script_play delay(50); simulate_event(p1_button1,50);
it does not work.

Is this the correct syntax ?

Thanks again.

[Thenasty]

ok for those who are running dkongx, here is the script to quickly press P1 Button1 so the player have no chance to see that Setting Screen on Boot Up.

dkongx/script_play simulate_event (p1_button1,1500);

Thanks Andrea for all the Hard work.

Dunno if it's been reported, I think Fire Barrel Hi-Score is not being displayed.
Dkongx : Kong scream/yell is garbled in the intro.

Thanks Again.
