Does this game work? By this I mean is there any upload which exists where the game can be run on a simple setup, without using VM's or any other kind of complicated solution, this is a great game absolutely but detail is hazy at best on whether Joe public can download and run it?

@Waffle_the_Great You are absolutely right, given the rarity of this machine, it is unlikely that the dump came from a different source than what the Teknoparrot Devs were using, which leads me to think that it wasn't as fully supported as what we think in Teknoparrot as it seems presently incompatible with the standalone dump, unless this has now changed.

I think it is on archive.org or at least it was.

In many years of being into arcade emus I can promise I have learned an important lesson, asking for unreleased dumps never speeds up their release if they are private and especially not in public chat.

@XmanAdventures It will have been dumped for sure but I certainly cannot find it anywhere, could be because of its age 2006 release that people had it years ago and lost it, it will turn up I am pretty sure, otherwise it would not have been released as a Patreon game in Teknoparrot I expect.

@compnwl apologies, I do take your point dude about it being an old post, I was just mentioning your post to clarify the point to people, who might be looking to buy new hardware that speed and processing power are not the same thing and you don't need a high end processor to run games at full speed because, you would be paying for features that you did not need for emulation, although this is changing over time in the likes of Mame which is usually able to use multiple threads at the same time as do a few others like Flycast Rcps3 etc but in the context you were talking, what you are saying was absolutely accurate and I did not intend to suggest otherwise, just to dispel the myth that more expensive is always faster for every use and that the law of diminishing returns is one that is still valid.

@stuart2773 I think but I am not entirely sure, that the utils folder will only contain the files needed to install the game onto original machines but the restore disks are on archive 3 of them, these contain that folder on one of the disks if they turn out to be needed.

Looks like quite an amusing little game when you see video of it

@Arcadeguy781 how many fps were the original game hardware, were they locked @ 30 fps or 60fps and what gfx card were they tested on plz?

@compnwl The most powerful rigs are not necessarily the fastest with dolphin, it depends a lot on single core performance, where an i5 processor can outperform a Xeon 8362 32c/64t Platinum chip costing £13,000 running @2.8ghz, nobody could consider this a weaker processor than a mid range I5 costing less that £200 yet it would have weaker performance than a 6core i5 at 4,0ghz in Dolphin, leaving aside the architecture to simplify the raw clock speed is the biggest factor, not the processing power.

looks more like 8 bit system but it might be fun.

@buck116 You would probably be better trying to get a hold of flybit that on the 1cc discord bro, it is more Teknoparrot related here or even in the jconfig section of this forum, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be though because it should be pretty generic to the APM3 controls except maybe a mechanical restrictor on the joystick or similar.

As far as I know it is only one player at the moment.

I was not forgetting it but Feb will be good enough, if it happens, seriously though, the Raw Thrills games are supposed to be a bit of a nightmare to work on and TP only has one guy prepared to do it.

I have both the 1.08 game files and iso, the game works fine in attract mode but when you go to start game, the screen goes black and game crashes, is there any files in the iso that need moved over to game dump in order to prevent this from happening or will there have to be a fix, in addition to sound file fixes, have folder structure same as shown in the example post? So near, yet so far.
