[Arcade PC] Photo Finish Racing (ICE)

[Harry99710]

Photo Finish Racing by ICE

 

Controls:

N,M,K,L,O - Coins for each player

Z,X (?) - Make horse go faster for each player (i'm unsure what the rest are)

F1 debug info

F2 game info

F3 show framerate

F4 show cursor

 

Additional info (thanks catnoodle):

The game requires a serial port to run

If your computer doesn't have one, use a serial port emulator

e.g Virtual Serial Port Driver from Eltima Software https://www.eltima.com/products/vspdxp/

Update : 

 

 After the recommendation of a couple people, some in discord and mametastic. i installed a program called Virtual serial port driver 9.0 by eltima software, booted right up after i configured it.

 

 

Here is the website for the program https://www.eltima.com/products/vspdxp/

 

and here is how to configure it : https://streamable.com/m8llmk

You'll need a serial port on your computer for the game to work, or else it will cause "Failed to initialize communications port" error.

If your computer doesn't have one, use a serial port emulator (like Virtual Serial Port Driver)

Hopefully this means more ICE games can be made playable, id love to see Ghostbusters working

Anyone figure out how to increase the speed of the horses? None of the keyboard keys seems to do anything. Just the coins seem to work

[bojo5150]

any luck figuring out what keys make the horse go faster?
