Game that needs 2 buttons support

[DanyPPC]

I made a list of games that are good candidates for supporting 2 buttons:

- Trog AGA (for jump)
- Wacky Races (for jump)
- Cliffhanger (for jump)
- Continental Circus (for accelerate)
- Ghosts'n Goblins (needs a better fix, from 2nd level fire and control don't work well)
- James Pond 2 RoboCod (ECS/AGA for jump)
- Lollypop (for jump)
- Quick and Silva (for jump)
- Viking Child (for jump)

I don't know if there are other games that need same fix.

Lollypop iirc you can enable two buttons in options?

in this game you need to press 'Enter' key to gain access to the extra locations apart the main levels (mandatory to collect all the objects needed to enable each end of level bossfight)

maybe that key could be mapped in a cd32 joypad config (if is not already)

Zool's controls featuring both hacking and shooting weaponry are a context-sensitivity nightmare with one button (it's another part of why I so strongly loathe the game). Also, any game with a single-use superpower weapon alongside the standard ones, or a 'press something to convert your tokens' upgrade system (eg Project X) would be enhanced by being able to do so without lunging at the keyboard.

you can create one mantis bug report for each game if you want support from whdload.

A post like this is interesting but will soon be buried (plus there are a lot of other threads like this one)

BTW patching a game like Zool is a nightmare as the game wasn't designed for this (a bit like First Samurai and its infamous wall climb moves that require UP). Fortunately, CD32 version provides a 2 button scheme IIRC. Second button doesn't equal "up" all the time, game needs to be reversed to understand when to substitute up for jump and when not to.

Odyssey would heavily be improved with a CD32 pas support. Strange that Audiogenic didn't include that from the start as Bubble N Squeak (even the A500 version) and Exile support it.
I'll do a mantis for this request

I requested this some years ago.

Yes, mantis is a good service for whdload request, but some gamea that I mentioned arent even on the list of Mantis.

If you think you discovered a bug, write a detailed report of your problem to the author of the install. For this use the bug report form which can be accessed if you click on the author on the download pages. Or submit a report in the Mantis Bugtracker. Try to report your problem accurate. If you get an error requester by WHDLoad please also make a CoreDump (just press the CoreDump button on the requester WHDLoad shows) and attach the .whdl_register file to the issue made in the Mantis Bugtracker. Problems reported via the form on the download pages will be imported some days later to the Mantis Bugtracker. During that process an user account for the reporter will be created (if not already present). All further communication regarding the report should then happen via the bug tracker so that the relevant informations can be preserved.

File the bug/request on whdload.de via form, for a game that isn't listed yet on Mantis.

Thanks, it's an easier way.

I made my request.
