How about this little gem of a game, it's like Duel Test Drive but with bikes

Not able to run this on my A1200, A WHDLoad version would surely be appreciated.

Do you really like that game? I think it should be buried with E.T. cartridges.

Well I guess part of it is blind nostalgia on my part, kind of have a soft spot for it. One man's junk is another man's treasure.

I did not play this as a kid, maybe I should. "Dancing" bike, not smooth track animation, weak sound is too much for me now.

lordofchaos · 22 April 2012, 20:03

Yeah it's pretty hard to get the bike around the roads at the best of times but not impossible...Perhaps some of the WHD'ers can perform their magic and get the game running smoother...OK well maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part

I started slave for this a while back, but it still needs quite a bit of work. Not sure when I will get around to completing it, but it is in progress.

Cool, well that's certainly encouraging to hear.

I think this game is OK. Incredible soundtrack by Wally Beben and those crazy jumps that you could modify

Nice menu graphics. Crazy little game.

WHDLoad would be nice

I mean there's WHDLoads for absolutely horrible games like Dangerous Streets, Running Man etc. so why not this

I just have to add the custom disk support and saving records/scores. Summer is here so it may be a little while yet.

Any news on this particular game Abaddon? I know you have a gazillion requests going on at the moment so no biggie if not.

Abaddon · 18 March 2013, 22:50

I have not looked at it since I posted. Hopefully I will get to it soon.

Edit: Made a bit of progress on this. Added support for custom disk creation and playing. Still need to add saving of stats and check for snoop bugs. Possibly add trainer as well.

Abaddon · 15 April 2013, 19:40

Here is the first beta.

The trainer is not active yet. Enter ZXYZ for you name for top speed on all courses.

lordofchaos · 17 April 2013, 14:27

Awesome, I look forward to testing this later this evening, thanks Abaddon!

I had a couple of races on the game using my real A1200 (68030 32MB), it was great to play it after all this time :-) Didn't encounter any real problems, however the music doesn't seem to be playing correctly, sounds like some of the samples are corrupted or not playing back correctly, raw data sounds between notes.

Sounds like the typical DMA wait problem most of the old replayers have, should be easy to fix.

Abaddon · 25 April 2013, 05:21

I will post a new version this weekend. I have added a DMA wait as StingRay mentioned in the prior post, which resolves the issue on my 1200 w/ACA1231 and 1200 w/aca030/56 (guess I should have turned the sound on while doing my initial testing). Also had it tested on the 040.

Will be adding a trainer

BTW: This game sucks

Cool, well I appreciate the work. Yeah the game isn't that good but one man's junk and all that..

Abaddon · 28 April 2013, 23:22

Here is the updated slave. Let me know if you still have issues. I have added infinite reties for the trainer.

Played for about 30 mins, no issues so far and the music is playing correctly

Thanks for the update Abaddon!
