Golden Tee Live 2014 anytime soon? The Teknoparrot team were popping these out every few weeks for awhile. What happened?

Hopefully taking a break to work on other stuff.  I mean, they did add 8 Golden Tee games in less than a year.

Thanks for sharing, you know how we can assign these bezels per game using one instance of reshade?

different bat or ahk files to switch the bezel & launch the game

Hi JC, could you please reup the bezels? Thanks

I added links to my original post.  don't know why they quit showing.

Made some new bezels for mt1 & mt2 if anyone wants to use them.  Tried to mimic the look of an original cab just a bit.

and how can it be made portable?

with standalone Play you can make a blank text file and save it as portable.txt in your emulator folder.  with TP it's unnecessary to do so.

I want to spend my 2 cents about namco 2xx/1xx emulation : this has been causing trouble, annoyances and ruining the nights of developers and those who would like to play it without any problems for a while now ... but patiently for a few years now that the adventure began, we have been waiting without haste for every little improvement or fix that is not always released every breath ... this has been happening for years (and let's also add the configuration, conversion and adaptation of each individual rom) ... so now that all this has been integrated into the Parrot (in the simplest way, I believe, click&play) we cannot expect that every single problem discussed in recent years will be fixed in 24 hours by the TP team.

 

I hope I have made you understand my thoughts about not reading fix requests for this or that problem every single day. What has been developed in almost 3 years cannot be expected to be ready soon, immediately and working with everything less than a week after TP integration (and the same goes for Triforce and any porting of other emulators).

This is a perfect response Hippo! 

As for the comment about shooting themselves in the foot and the discord being overwhelmed, how is it really any different than any other new game they add?  Literally every time they add something, the discord gets flooded with "why don't my game work?" comments & complaints.  Be happy they're trying to improve emulation for those two systems, since the real Dolphin devs want nothing to do with Tri-Force, and the Play dev seems more interested in making the console games work on mobile devices.  So without TP doing what they're doing, we may have never seen any more improvements with those systems.

I'm having a lot of issues setting up both the Wangan Midnight build and the lightgun build. I opened the latest Demulshooter which is supposed to have the Chihiro games added to the game list, but they aren't in there. I have the release folder from the download in the same folder as Demulshooter, and it’s not working. I also tried setting up Demulshooter using the commands in the help section for each game on Github, and I kept on getting errors. I feel like I'm missing something, but I'm not sure. Do you have to have CXBXR open and then click on the game.exe file? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 

extract demulshooter into the release folder from hippopippo, and setup your device in the demulshooter gui.  double click the game exe.  it will launch the game, demulshooter, and reshade for bezel if you have reshade installed.

help vampire night has audio issues in teknoparrot. can reaver fix the audio issues with all namco 246 games including vampire night

Most of the system 246 games have problems.  It's going to take time for them to fix them.  Please be patient and no need to bring up every single issue with every game during the stream.  Reaver and TP devs are aware of the issues and are working on them.

any of these other emulators they add will be free to use just as they are standalone.  they're all open source and adding any of them to the subscription requirement would violate the various open source licenses.  they're just concentrating on improving the arcade parts of those emulators and any changes or improvements will probably never be pushed to the main line emulators

I taught Teknoparrot main focus to PC based arcade, system 246 are PS2 based so it's working as emulator not a windows layer then you must have a higher spec to play this emulator or game over man!

Reaver is working on improvements and had already made some decent improvements in some games.  Give it time.  It's only been a few days.

Oh okay. I understand what you're saying now. Maybe Mr. Reaver can add the support for that version on Teknoparrot. I'll ask him on the livestream Saturday on Kick.com

It's already being worked on by the TP devs.  Patience is a virtue.

1.06 is the same system as 1.05/OF. They both run on Namco ES3. It would probably be the same game configuration on Teknoparrot just like Rev 1.05?OF

What are you not understanding here?  Yes they run on the same hardware, but it's a newer version with updates & added content.  The 1.06.35 version still needs to be added by TP before it can be played.

Ummm. Mario Kart DX USA is already supported to Teknoparrot. Rev 1.05.21 OF works on it.

and he clearly stated 1.06.35/OF which add content and characters.  TP has not added support yet, and he's holding his dump until it is.

I've noticed no differences or improvements comparing the latest Play standalone to the TP fork they include.  Other than easier controls configuration.

Thanks for sharing miki91!

All that remains is to decrypt the exe.....

the exe is easy since it's Unity.  it's getting the assembly c sharp decrypted that's the challenge.  Game also runs on 2 separate PCs working together.  Same with King Kong VR.

is mario kart dx 1.18 offline ? i cant get online anymore

It was put to a vote, and voted on by other users during one of the livestreams a few weeks ago.  More games free sub subscription more quickly, at the cost of all online services with TP are now subscription.

Spoken like someone who clearly doesn’t have a clue how to do it either.

Download the source code
Uncomment the code block in the GetState function

Compile

How would I go about doing this? I thought it was used through gecko codes, but not one seem to work. Never used this emulator before.

if you have to ask how to edit & compile source code, it's probably not for you.

1 hour ago, Ericg384 said:

How do you bypass the link portion on startup of Mario kart GP one and two?

currently only possible if you modify, remove the wait state, and compile the source code yourself

you also only have to enable mp2 & mp3float 

Are you a Teknoparrot subscriber?  All of their online services now require it, even if the game itself does not.

I have the new AfterDark Game that does not require a subscription
to TP!!

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CKzMY3ESOOugRFduUIngJDM2Ry1GU2OC/view?usp=sharing

id call it a standalone but its technically not as it needs TP

everything is in the folder, launch TeknoParrotui, and adjust the settings and the game location (game is located in the roms folder)

i have made a convenient exe so you can simply launch it with that (once you configure the game locaiton in TP)

theres a installer file in the root folder that ends with "INSTALL THIS" this resolves audio hissing issue if you run into that

**KEEP THIS AS ITS OWN FOLDER / GAME** DO NOT OVERWRITE YOUR CURRENT TEKNOPARROT MAIN EMULATOR**

Enjoy! From Vic_VP along side an anonymous person in my discord that supplied parts of this

Just don't ever update that TPUI or will require subscription if you do.  It's not really a secret. When After Dark got added, they forgot to actually add the subscription requirement so it worked without sub until Pocky pushed an update.  So it's just using that particular version of the TP software that you can never update or it will then need a subscription.  So it's not some special version that someone made, or hacked.  Just an old version that the TP team made a mistake when they pushed the update.
