Hi,
Today I tried Linux Loader for the first time, and I'm really impressed with it

I've tried Virtua Tennis 3 and it doesn't have any of the problems TP have with the game

Also, it has working card emulation

Only problems right now are:

- VT 3 doesn't have sound

- Coins are not introduced properly.... After press coin button, instead on have one coin I end with 9 
Is there anyway to solve these two problems?

Thanks in advance

 

UPDATE: Also loaded After Burner with the same result (no sound)

 

The coin problem can be solved using "Service" key to insert coins

I hope the devs finish integrating the remaining games. I would like to get rid of Teknoparrot for Lindbergh games.

They're certainly working on it,  not easy to implement all the titles bugless as only them can do, on TP everything is buggy, just my guess but that's exactly what they wanna avoid in their releases, hence, it takes time... this team is killer.

Everything works perfectly actually, never had a single problem on my end... in the other hand, on TP every virtua fighter game has the graphic of the last stage completely garbled, patched or not... ridiculous, almost every Lindbergh game still needs a patch... what a work...

Outrun 2 (Lindbergh) Texture Tool
An application for viewing, extracting, replacing, and upscaling textures of Outrun 2 (Lindbergh).

This tool provides a graphical interface to work with the proprietary container formats used by the game.

The game files, once moded, will only work with Linux Loader. We added a protection layer so the textures cannot be used by other loaders that never credit other people's work. So if you see modded textures in a loader other than Linux Loader and no credit was given to us, means our code/work was taken.

 

https://github.com/lindbergh-loader/Outrun-2-Texture-Tool

You can for example do this, or convert all the textures to HD.

You need to launch disk0/prog/main.exe ... It's not a .elf file, anyways, besides that, the game has a dual screen with some extra touch functions,

not sure it's playable without a touch screen if the mouse emulates the gun...  HOD EX works like a charm tho!

my ahk to launch game is :

Run, linuxloader main.exe -g F:\linuxloader-v3.0.8\roms\lindbergh\PrimevalHunt\disk0\prog

 

for hotdex :

Run, linuxloader hodexRI.elf -g F:\linuxloader-v3.0.8\roms\lindbergh\HOTDEX\disk0\elf

[GameSpecific]
# Set Primeval Hunt
# Mode 0: Default (side by side)
# Mode 1: No Touch screen
# Mode 2: Side By Side
# Mode 3: 3ds mode 1 (Touch screen to the right)
# Mode 4: 3ds mode 2 (Touch screen to the bottom)

Cool stuff, thanks a lot!  ..just wondering if it's just a workaround and the game is still missing some functionalities...

 

[nosoucy62]

but in primeval hunt no crosshair in game.....

anybody have a solution ?

thanks

[lords]

Don't forget to extract the new linuxloader.ini and controls.ini out of Build v3.0.10, for the new commands to work.

[Nodoyuna]

Still didn't work here...
The loader says I'm missing a couple libraries
