Don't believe what Windows' system control tells you - with Powerstrip you can force the refresh rate to 50 and/or 100Hz on the majority of displays which officially don't support it!

I am waiting. I am not running

P.S. You are making impressive progress! Good for you!

I used UniVBE on my old PC with a CRT, i know a few of these hacks

I already tried plugging the old computers on my LCD but 50Hz is too low (i reached the 53-56).
And this monitor is 10 years old so the 100Hz were a sweet dream at this time

Ah, UniVBE - totally forgot about that. Brings back memories...
Back in 1998 I played Wings, Turrican II and Moonstone fullspeed on a Pentium 133MHz under Fellow!
And thanks to UniVBE I got 100% smooth scrolling on my CRT.

198,800

Graham Humphrey · 19 September 2009, 19:33

Getting there...

skateblind · 19 September 2009, 23:16

201,900

Broke the 200K barrier.

TCD · 19 September 2009, 23:18

Go skatey, go skatey!

Only 80k to go

UniVBE was a great tool in many aspects, an indispensable for the players

Here's my new score: 185.400
I lost at the first track on the Moon, it seems to me very hard !

I have not managed to beat any of the moon levels. I've reached the moon section a few times now and always come last.

Since you both reached the Moon-levels (which I haven't yet) you can now practice them in battle-mode (the game saves your progress as mailman told me on Lemon)...

Yes but if you leave the game, the progression is lost...
Only people who have a registered version of WHDLoad can have this feature.

Playing from disks the games stores this information on the 2nd disk. I assume that playing from ADFs on WinUAE the game does the same...

rexsu · 20 September 2009, 15:47

Not with me, perhaps because i use adf version in the zip format?

skateblind · 20 September 2009, 16:15

I have registered WHDload and it still doesn't seem to save progress or the highscores...

Graham Humphrey · 20 September 2009, 17:23

It saves my highscores and lap times fine...

You shouldn't then. Zipped ADF is write protected.

You need to quit game with QUITKEY assign to the WHDLoad or the game.

BTW: I have been racing a bit and on one of the SPORTS tracks I managed to lap 4 cars. I also improved my score a bit but I don't think it is going to change anything if I post it

skateblind · 20 September 2009, 18:43

223,800

I lapped 3 guys on one of the sport tracks, the most I have ever lapped. I lapped 1 car on 2 of the moon circuits, when usually I would come second on all the moon tracks. I am certainly getting the hang of it. The reason it is not saving is probably the quit key, I will start using it now. I really need to practice on the moon tracks, they are so tight and confusing.

There is still 9+ days left, plenty of time...

Wow, a great effort.

Worried yet mailman?
