The important Keys Info page has a lot of useful things you can use like also Warp Mode with Toggle Warp Mode <END> + <PAUSE>

The speed the updates are coming... it won't be too long to wait.


I was going to request the Damocles Mission disks to be added to your collection, then read this...

Any chance you changed your mind since then?

I spent many months playing and mapping every inch of that game.

Well it's highly likely to be a long wait; the issue is actually finding any decent games left to add in...

A massive ball ache... people would need to know the exact procedure for loading these mission disks, otherwise would think it's just "Damocles: Mercenary II" that I've set up, despite the configuration name.

So I've updated my "DeLuxe Galaga [ECS]" and "DeLuxe Galaga [AGA]" disk sets to include the trainer (items in the shop are free)

Been a lot of work though, as I had to:
  • Figure out how the trainer works and how best to apply.
  • Create scripts.
  • Create menus.
  • LHA everything up and span across two disks.
  • Test thoroughly.
  • Blah, blah, blah.
Anyway, all done

Regarding the trainer, with the AGA version you just launch my custiom script via pressing "F2":
With the ECS version, the same thing doesn't work so you need to go through a quick process after starting the game:
Finally, I've now renamed the games properly i.e: "Deluxe Galaga" --> "DeLuxe Galaga".

So, please just do the following:
  • Delete the configuration file "C:\WinUAE\Configurations\Deluxe Galaga.uae".
  • Delete the configuration file "C:\WinUAE\Configurations\Deluxe Galaga [AGA].uae".
  • Delete the <gamedir> "C:\WinUAE\Games\Deluxe Galaga".
  • Delete the <gamedir> "C:\WinUAE\Games\Deluxe Galaga AGA".
  • Download / extract this file into "C:\WinUAE".
Hope you guys appreciate all the work that went into these

Oh gosh, I had totally forgot about the gem that is DeLuxe Galaga! Thank you for the work that went into this, I finally got to see further than I had ever seen in the game before, and got to use weapons I'd never got to try. That game is just so much fun. Thank you.

Same

Hence why I thought it was worth the trouble of adding in the trainer; even though it was a good day's work...

Why is there a capital L in Deluxe?

Screenshot on title menu has a small L

And the games website has a small L too?

Looks like Deluxe Galaga has a lowercase L.
DeLuxe Galaga AGA has an uppercase L.

Bah, I've updated the screenshots for both "DeLuxe Galaga [ECS]" and "DeLuxe Galaga [AGA]" to look a lot better

So just download / extract this file into "C:\WinUAE".

I went off the HOL names...

Yes I'm aware that the title for "DeLuxe Galaga [ECS]" is lowercase; and the title for "DeLuxe Galaga [AGA]" is uppercase.

Hmmm, I might rename the ECS version back to "Deluxe" though...

Will have a think.

Ok, so have now renamed both the [ECS] and [AGA] versions back to "Deluxe Galaga".

This is like most of the TOSEC disks, WHDLoad version and also "Deluxe Pacman"...

So, please just do the following:
  • Delete the configuration file "C:\WinUAE\Configurations\DeLuxe Galaga.uae".
  • Delete the configuration file "C:\WinUAE\Configurations\DeLuxe Galaga [AGA].uae".
  • Delete the <gamedir> "C:\WinUAE\Games\DeLuxe Galaga".
  • Delete the <gamedir> "C:\WinUAE\Games\DeLuxe Galaga AGA".
  • Download / extract this file into "C:\WinUAE".

The Hong Kong Phooey IPF can be replaced with "Hong Kong Phooey (1990)(Hi-Tec)[cr Angels - Genesis - Defjam][t +1 SR].adf" (CRC32: 0xF29276B7).

I've completed it with and without cheats. Also killed myself to check that, etc. Seems to be 100%.

I used your .uae file so it can be a straight ADF replacement. No config change necessary.

The reason why I use the .IPF is that from memory, all cracks miss the title screen:
I guess I could switch to the WHDLoad version which has the title screen and unlimited energy trainer.

That's totally fine pointing out that the Skid Row version is 100%; thanks.

I too would like a trainer so will probably use the WHDLoad version in the next "Update Pack"
