This shoudn't happen, it said in one of the text files that it need to be installed (very minimal files) for saves to work.

I investigate tonight.

Controls, by default it's set as mouse. From memory left mouse button is accelerate. You can change to joystick though in the options.

Oh ransom1122, you are being a muppet

...I should have noticed earlier from your screenshot and the "InstalVGP" icon.

Have a look at this image:



You are launching the game from the big "VIRTUALGRANDPRIX" folder hey? That's the CD-ROM, you need to start the game from the "VirtualGP" normal looking folder; where my mouse cursor is pointing at.

Tested saving input options i.e. joystick and all good

Also tested the mouse, right-mouse button is accelerate.

Hi DamienD

I seem to have missed update#6, and now the link is dead.

I need to work less and spend more time on EAB forums.

Thanks DamienD, what a wonderfull job you've made

[jabybau]

Hey Damien I need your help....My pc crashed totally and luckily I saved your winuae installation files on a usb hd but none of the 7 update files so if you could write to me in pm we may arrange to do sth to get these ones and have your perfect winuae again with me...
cheers

update: maybe I can manage to restore it so not to bother you further...let you know mate!!!

[DamienD]

You all good or need a PM?

I'm struggling with my corrupted hd now and I have been saving it to some external ones, hope it'll turn out for the best and in case so negative I'll send you a msg mate....these days...
thanks a lot for your interest...

[DamienD]

You don't want to be having to do that.

Clean files... you already have the base release, PM sent for 7 x updates

[DamienD]

Given that mcgeezer has released a new, huge update to Bomb Jack Beer Edition; it would be rude not to update this immediately

So do the following:

... Delete the directory "C:\WinUAE\Games\Bomb Jack Beer Edition".
... Dowload the attached and extract into "C:\WinUAE".

[ransom1122]

Thanks ..

Part of me thinks this game will keep getting numerous amount of updates

I take it that this update will be attached to the next update pack you make as well?

Did you not read mcgeezer's post?

It's now very close to completion so very much doubt "this game will keep getting numerous amount of updates"...

Yes, it will be in the next official Update Pack whenever that is

Yeah I did, personally I gave up on update 3 of the game.. Seeing that more and more were released each week. I will wait for final release. Anyhow It's great to see it included in your Collection..

I guess it's a good job I didn't give up after update 3.

All I would like is that I get a little bit of inspiration back from the community by way of positive or negative comments about the Beta's.

Even one comment makes a difference in inspiration - looking at my threads I can't see any from you at all.

Like you say though, it's your opinion and I respect that.
