Another shootem'up needed...

Shoonay · 14 August 2004, 16:40

This one looks like this...
I've played it in an arcade back when i didn't had any home comp/console, it looks like Commando on C64, the view is the same (up), but with much better graphics. There are two controllable hero's - both kinda lookin like Mr. Schwarzenegger

with muscules and "stuff", each with a different coloured peaces of material on there heads - like Rambo

You just go up, fight with your hands, do a 'tornado kick' like MK, backslash and stuff, but when you pick up a gun you can shoot with it.
As much as i remember there where bossess after each level, like a killin' Chopper or a tank and stuff... it wasn't [Metal Gear Solid]

Ah! you are thinking of Ikari Warriors, available on the Amiga.

PS: I could be wrong, anyone else?

...or not...
...i got some strnage feeilings that that's not the game i played about 10 years ago. In Ikari3 i can't even circle my around - he can only face up, and cannot pick up things. As much as i remembered, i could easy face any direction, and there was a 3rd button to pickap stuff.
Oh yeah, and the player sprites were much bigger and tough lookin'

Then play the arcade version with mame. I can confirm the game you described is Ikari 3.

Ikari 3 and Ikari Warriors are different games (because one is Ikari 3 DOH!) and only Ikari Warriors is available on amiga. (and ikari 2, with a different name)

edit: If you are already running the mame version and can't turn around, you need to configure controls for this game and assign a key to DIAL function. Unfortunately it won't play as good as a real arcade joystick unless you have a joystick that can rotate around.

Shoonay · 14 August 2004, 18:30

i did play the mame version and just cannot configure my joystick... is the [standard] chosen from the default input layout ok?
it cannot recognize any of my 6 joy buttons

You need to press tab during emulation and assign each joystick function yourself.

that's exactly what i'm do'in... only the digital stick positions +/- are recognized and no buttons

Hillsy_ · 14 August 2004, 19:30

It does work on MAME, I have a sidewinder joypad and I put the DIAL functions to the L trigger & R trigger. L rotates the guy anti-clockwise whilst R rotates the guy Clockwise. Have you tried your joypad on other MAME games, are they working fine? I think I had some problems with the Ikari Warriors games, but perserve, it will work. It's been such a long time since I tried the MAME games..I must be getting old..

Shoonay · 14 August 2004, 19:40

ok it now works... as for me, a bit strange... but there's unlimited credits and who cares

PS: Is there a way to save hiscores in MAME?

Marlon · 14 August 2004, 19:48

You DO know this isn't a Mame board? Anyway..

To save hi scores you need the hiscore.dat, available from http://www.mameworld.net/highscore/ - just unzip the file to your Mame folder and you're sorted.

Shoonay · 14 August 2004, 21:14

I DO know this is NOT a MAME board but this theme just went to these tracks... and all that...

Thanks BTW
