The official awesome replay thread

[MJS]

Most inps at zekzek's are awesome, but as a big fan of wbml, I find this one very interesting:

He collects 8108 gold, and he uses the same technique as jo's (taking stabs in the air to get 6x gold coins) which I still don't understand how it is done!
I noticed he bought the 60g armor as it is heavier (and cheaper of course) than the 150g and apparently this helps getting 6x gold coins when he let the enemies hit him.
And I've also realized the flying boots wear out after a number of jumps (12 if I counted correctly) and not after a certain amount of time as I thought.

Sorry Ghemant... I lost it. Mahlemiut told me on #MARP... it is from some Asian site. I have the inp, but not here in this PC. Mahlemiut... can you provide again the link?

I can't get this to playback at all using the MAME EXE provided (or Wolfmame 100). It doesn't playback past the first few seconds before he gets killed.

I have an Intel processor, and used options: -noafs -fs 0

Any ideas?

[zlk]

Try to remove the "-noafs -fs 0" from your command line.

Try to remove the "-noafs -fs 0" from your command line.

I can't play s1945 at all in WolfMAME .98 .99 or .100. The last one that works is .97.

A color palette screen comes up for a split second, then the whole screen goes black.

I think this is the one your looking for...
Kawaks 1.45 (works in 1.46)
The tricks are enabled by activating debug DIP switch 6.

Lifeforce (Japan)
10,000,000+
MAME Plus 0.78 (works in WolfMAME, with -nom68k_c_core option)

Can someone explain the whole Nemesis/Gradius sequel thing? Like why did Nemesis and Gradius get different sequels, despite them being the same game (just slightly different hardware)? And where does Lifeforce fit into all this?

could we provide the zip link as well for downloading the inp file, sometimes it's hard to navigate if you don't know the language. here's another one that's already here but old version of mame.
