Dynablaster up and running

[steve88]

At last, I got all that downloaded stuff together and got Dynablaster to run on the PC, but purely by chance I have to say, so thanks to everyone for their bits of information and links,

But I would still love to have it on a PC compatible disc, to take to mates houses and play there, if there was one I’d pay a kings ransom to have it, ok a pauper’s ransom

But if I can get rid of the TV flicker when the Amiga is active I’ll be a happy bunny, but lets wait for the flea bay mouse to turn up first, coz apparently you need to click it a few times on loading or on a prompt,

I’ll let you know what happens, so thanks again all.

Regards…. Steve

why don't u try the pc version of Dynablaster? runs OK in XP, and has the same gfx as the amiga version...
I have uploaded it to the Zone!

[Shoonay]

Not to mention DosBox, runs great!
BTW I've uploaded 3 versions already, lol ...

This should probably be merged with the other thread... not much point having two threads about this

Your right, but I wanted it to stand out to make sure It would be read by the people I wanted to thank, but don’t worry, I wont do it again honest..

BTW when I read this “not signed in”

” Super League is coming... - voting for Round 1 starts January 6

"When there were stories I'd read in an evening, a life I could hold in my hand, there were songs I could sing for a season, then bury them back in the sand. There'd be friends up and down every table, of people I'd met in a dream, but when I sit here thinking of times that are gone, this is the loneliest place I've ever been."

It actually disappeared when I did sign in, so what’s that all about then

Confused…steve

I’ve been out this morning to pc world and bought a joystick, plugged it in and fired winuae up, and it recognised by name that there was a new joystick plugged in, so I'm happy about that,

Cant get it to work for the pc version of dynablaster though

Is it a USB stick, I would guess it is, can't remember last time I saw a gameport plug on a stick. If your running the game straight without DOSBox etc. then I would think it expects to see a game port stick and not a USB stick, WinUae being more modern probly maps the sticks correctly.

Try it in DOSBox see what happens

Glad that you finally have WinUAE up and running

Download and install ieSpell and then you can use the "Check Spelling" button before submitting a post

The j/stick is a usb type, the pc game is a separate zip file that I just open click and play, no prompts, no menus and no options,

The other dynablaster zip file opens with the winuae where I can use the joystick…..if that makes any sense..

Oh yeah you wouldn’t believe the trouble I had doing it, but most of that was my fault (ignorance), but thanks to others patients and directions I got there in the end,

Although I can play the game, the only gripe I’ve got is with the type of joystick that was available from pc world/curry’s and comets (just down the road) it’s a logitech attack 3, £19.99. Its one of the types I could never get on with, but beggars can’t be choosers,

But at least I know it all works now,

So thanks again for everyone’s help

Regards….Steve
