For RFJ I'll be using Ixion because it is a man's ship, complete with fat-ass hitbox

This man speaks so much truth

Okay, got this lagless MAME nonsense and DDP International ROM. I have no idea how to use MAME, can anyone help?

All the games in my list are in grey and nothing happens when I click Play on any of them. All I have is DDP International, so it makes sense for the others, but I don't know why I can't play that. The ROM is in its .ZIP file in my ROMs folder, and my friend gave me this NeoGeo BIOS thing or whatever and said I needed to put the .ZIP in the same folder as DDP...I did, and still nothing.

Does anyone know what could be wrong? I want to get killed by beeeeeeees ;_;

Open MAME, click on View at the top, and then select Refresh. That should detect the ROM.

Wasn't there also a rank increase just for picking Ixion, or does that only apply to Boss Rush?

Didn't play today since I was playing FF XIII again. Final dungeon is a pain.

don't mind me I'm trollin again

decided to bomb more than usual
reached the final boss for the first time with 4 lives and a bomb
died twice because I bombed before risking anything

it didn't feel that hard tbh, the bosses are pretty weak

also Dimahoo/whateveryoucallitinmoon is awesome
we need to make a scoreboard for that someday

Okay, my friend gave me another version of MAME to use, and I can open DDP fine and all, but now I can't do anything. I can stare at the title screen and watch the demonstration, but I can't control anything. Do I need a gamepad for this or what? I've tried every key on my keyboard with no result

An Odd Sea Slug · « **Reply #549 on:** April 14, 2010, 08:21:16 PM »

Did you hit the tab key? Hit that and go into control settings (for this game) or whatever its called and take a look at those. 5 key inserts player one's coins by default.

how am I supposed to see myself

it's like battle garegga all over, except that the bullets aren't not visible enough, your shot and the powerups are too bright

WAIT THAT'S A BULLET NO ITS A POWERUP NO WAIT THATS MY OWN SHOT FUCK WHERE IS MY FIGHTER ANYWAYS

Azinth · « **Reply #552 on:** April 14, 2010, 09:51:54 PM »

Eh, I find the visibility to be pretty fine for the most part. Except Sim 30. >:[

Bananamatic · « **Reply #553 on:** April 14, 2010, 09:57:33 PM »

haven't got further ~~because I don't creditfeed like some Gamespot reviewer~~ than 30

I don't get how some shots can be shot down
weird game is weird

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #554 on:** April 14, 2010, 09:57:43 PM »

Real Battle is where that problem is really bad. but yeah, Sim 30 sucks for that too. Too bad you need to go there if you want a good score.

Aisha · « **Reply #555 on:** April 14, 2010, 10:49:41 PM »

shadowbringer · « **Reply #556 on:** April 15, 2010, 03:07:59 AM »

progress status on RFJ for this week (I've not been able to play as much as I wanted).. I've been able to activate mega medal+8x multiplier (3 tanks+fairy) a few times, but still not as consistently as before (before = 1 week during RFJ's week on STGT'09, where I spent the first 4 days or so trying to learn how to do this). Some mistakes are getting on my way, though, and I'm once again clueless after Simulation 01 :p (like before getting used to Sim 05)

Bananamatic · « **Reply #557 on:** April 15, 2010, 02:32:47 PM »

apparently I almost got a 1 ALL on RFJ
how do the levels work again

are there several endings and more stages?

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #558 on:** April 15, 2010, 02:45:52 PM »

Possible stage orders are

1-5-10-20-35(All1)
1-5-15-20-35(All1)

1-5-15-30-45-RB1-RB2(All3)
1-5-15-30-40-RB1-RB2(All3)
1-5-15-20-40-RB1-RB2(All3)

Then there's going to 50 from stage 40 or 45 instead. This will lead to an All2.

All3 is the best possible clear, while All1 is the worst one. There's also 2 seperate All3 types, but clearing Real Battle either way is an All3. If you die during Real Battle 1, you will get a 1,000,000 point clear bonus if you clear. However, if you don't die in Real battle 1 unlocking the TLB requirement and 1cc, it'll be a 10,000,000 point bonus.

LtC · « **Reply #559 on:** April 15, 2010, 02:46:56 PM »

Like this

This is propably the most unfun game to play for score there is. I'm not even dodging anything in this game, just moving to places for micluses, quickshots and such. Bosses you can just pointblank+bombspam to kill them in 5 seconds each. The end stages aren't really that important because there is no end of stage bonuses, which make them kinda worthless specially if you drop your medal chain.

Sim30 is lovely, I can't even see the bullets. In phase1 the bullets hide into the explosions.

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #560 on:** April 15, 2010, 02:52:10 PM »

Also, in looping versions, which we are not playing, any deaths in the first loop will count against the Real Battle requirement in the second loop. It's for this reason that there either aren't any known 2-All3 runs or they're very hard to find. The best that I've seen someone mention was a 2-All2 that did Real Battle on the first loop then end up on Sim 50 on the second.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #561 on:** April 15, 2010, 02:54:10 PM »

This game made me think about playing Battle Garegga for score.

Yes, it's THAT bad

KOA · « **Reply #562 on:** April 15, 2010, 03:10:43 PM »

Dimahoo is a lot worse. :<

Bananamatic · « **Reply #563 on:** April 15, 2010, 03:21:06 PM »

dimahoo is better than sex

Matsuri · « **Reply #564 on:** April 15, 2010, 04:01:04 PM »

Dimahoo is as bad as Garegga when it comes to scoring.

RFJ's scoring isn't hard at all.

Azinth · « **Reply #565 on:** April 15, 2010, 04:40:15 PM »

Isn't Dimahoo supposed to be regarded as like, one of the worst designed shooting games of all time? At least I thought I heard that once.

So, I got DoDonPachi to work! The problem was that I forgot I had to put in credits so it didn't let me do anything until then (thanks guys~).

Then came HOLY FUCK

Perfected the first two stages blind, then died twice on Stage 3, then ended up having to continue right before I got to the Stage 4 boss. Ended up with a 5cc because I can't see shit on Stage 5 and the boss cheats :V

This game is really fun, I wanna 1cc this...is there a way to change the difficulty? It says Normal on the title screen...are the other difficulties just the second loop or whatever it is?
