Reaver's TeknoParrot 0.7 Quote ********************************************* * TeknoParrot 0.7 * ********************************************* -- http://www.teknogods.com -- Changes in TeknoParrot 0.7 Public Build: - Initial D6AA experimental support, happy midsummer guys! It has some problems: test menu doesn't work, jvs i/o can jam etc. --------------------------------------------- Changes in TeknoParrot 0.6 Public Build: - Since VMPSoft cannot code a decent software and Dream Raiders work ok, this is now public. - See you later this week with Initial D6AA --------------------------------------------- Changes in TeknoParrot 0.54a Patreon Build: - Experimental support for Sega Dream Raiders - NOTE: You need to patch the PE header so it loads always on ImageBase 0x400000. - I tried on various OS and some always had problem when ImageBase was non-standard. - So for maximum compatibility just patch the PE header one time and play. - NOTE: Enter test menu first to disable motion, blower and controller feedback! - For mouse mode now Service and Test works with normal keymap! (numbers: 8 9 0) - New serial system for Patrons, very easy to use. - Fixed bugs in ParrotLoader where it would crash when wrong dir was entered. - Included register.bat for easy patron serial registration. - Fixed a bug where settings.tg would get sometimes saved in multiple folders. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.54 Public Build: - Fixed issue with Let's Go Island where with mouse the gun trigger and start would get stuck. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.53 Public Build: - Fixed crash issues with keyboard by removing experimental driving code with keyboard. - You can now play Let's Go Island with mouse! Left click shoot, right click start. Cursor is hooked to the window. - Please use DXWND to hide the cursor from the screen (there is option for this in Input) - If Let's Go Island crashes please use dxwnd to set windowed and resolution to 1024x600 (or bigger) - If you want to play full screen, create custom resolution from your graphics card control panel (not TeknoParrot!) - 2nd player can still play with the gamepad with you :-) --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.52 Public Build: - Fixed a bug in Full Axis steering. - Fixed bug in gas and brake where they would get stuck. - Fixed bug in gas and brake where they would mix up badly. - Fixed a bug where brake would not zero completely even if you let go of it. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.51 Public Build: - Fixed a bug where joystick controls wouldn't work when not all joystick buttons weren't mapped. - Fixed a bug where you could enter joystick mapping without setting a joystick. - Added multiplier for Gun Cursor (Gun Multiplier in mapping) to make cursor move faster. - Added support for reverse axis for wheels with reverse axis on Gas and Brake. - Keyboard steering adding, very experimental. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.5 Public Build: - All Patreon changes, THANKS TO ALL PATREONS!!!!! We will see you in 0.5a. - Fully customizable joystick controls, including wheel and pedals. - Unique bindable buttons for special things like: Sonic Item, Sega Racing Classic Gears/View Changes and Gun Trigger / Gun Controls. - Recoded most of the DirectInput listener, now code is much more easier to maintain and easier to read. - Fixed TONS of bugs around the program. - All test menus now should function correctly. (Except Sega Sonic, will be coming a bit later.) - Controls are now much more fluid - Let's Go Island also has normal functionality even with 2 players. (Before was double speed) - Recode Let's Go Island control handling. - Sega Racing Classic Gears now work by just pushing button instead of holding. - Added about box with Tekno Colonel Patreon names.

(amAuth emulation) - Fixed some emulation issues with previous games (just cleaner emulation) - amNetwork emulation improvements, netplay coming soon! - Updated SharpDX and SharpDX.DirectInput - Fixed DumbJvsCmd, now it takes game profile as command line parameter. Run to see params. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.4 Hotfix: - Steering now works again, one package was emulated wrong. Check Github for more. - Sega Racing Classics steering now works properly. - Unit tests fixed for emulation as well. - All Direct Input devices are now detected except normal Keyboard and Mouse. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.4: - Preliminary support for Sega Sonic All-Stars Racing (disabled until more testing) - Rewritten JVS emulator to support multi packages - Wrote unit tests for many JVS packages and variations. - Now all JVS I/O errors should be eliminated.

NOTE: This was not because of the emulator but because of the differences between WinXP and newer windows. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.3: - Sega Racing Classic supported! (DO NOT ENABLE NETWORK OR IT WILL FREEZE FOREVER, missing network emu code) - Test menu now works for all games. (YES this includes saving settings) - Completely recoded DumbJvsBrain and now it's called DumbJvsManager - Full UI interface and no more needing to use command line at all. - Easy to setup joysticks from list, once saved they will be remembered. - Keyboard support, only uses keyboard for that player that has "No joystick selected" - com0com now get automatically set when user presses "Auto setup JVS emulation ports" (admin required) - It even has button to test the jvs emulation ports. - Added 3 unit tests for JVS emulator, more to come later - Refactored all code and moved all common items to DumbsJvs.Common - So if people can want to make own launchers it's easier to use only the dll. (DumbJvs.Common) - Improved JVS emulation code a little bit. - Games can now be directly set in the launcher and launched from the launcher easily. (Commandline coming later) - Jvs emulation is only present when game is running, once game exists it also exists. - Emulator now reroutes game COM4 to COM13 instead to avoid conflics. - Emulator core improvements. - Pressing ESC now quits the game. --------------------------------------------- Changes TeknoParrot 0.2: - Core fixes - Melty Blood Actress Againt Current Code supported! --------------------------------------------- Changes in DumbJvsBrain: (This rar build will come a bit later once all bugs are ironed out) - See github: https://github.com/ReaverTeknoGods/Dumb ... its/master --------------------------------------------- ==Default Keyboard Controls== TEST: 8 Service1: 9 Service2: 0 P1 Start: 1 P1 Directions: Arrows P1 Button 1-6: Insert, Home, Page Up, Delete, End, Page Down P2 Start: 2 P2 Directions: WASD P2 Button 1-6: TYUGHJ ==Known Issues== - Sega Racing Classic only works properly on AMD GPUs on NVIDIA you will have corrupted textures. -> Use Game Loader All Rh to help with issue. - Sega Racing Classic will freeze completely if you try to enable linked play (Missing amNetwork emulation) -> amNetwork emulation coming soon! - Keyboard controls are not working for Sega Racing Classics -> You can fix this by downloading DumbJvsBrain source and enabling it from code comments.

Do you have a download link for this art and do you have fade in for Rocketlauncher and video snaps both game and platform?
