Duckstation for The Simpsons Bowling (PSX Based, Similar to Konami GV & Baby Phoenix)

[jcstahl1]

Custom DuckStation-based Windows (only tested in Win10) build for The Simpsons Bowling.

This is a stripped-down, game-specific DuckStation build made only for Simpsons Bowling. It is not intended to be a full replacement for standard DuckStation.

The build is preconfigured for this game and includes the required game files & bios.

 

** Note1:  I accidentally included two folder for bezels.  the "bezels" folder can safely be deleted.
*** Note2:  There is now a second link for an updated exe file that improves trackball/mouse response.  overwrite the exe in the full zip with the new exe.

 

Features / changes:

• Boots directly into Simpsons Bowling with included .bat file

• Preconfigured game folder layout

• Native bezel overlay support

• Fixed arcade-style inputs for coin, start, service, and test controls

• Trackball / mouse support for bowling input

• Simplified setup compared to normal DuckStation

Default controls:

 

Set controls in the GUI under controller settings:

Port 1 - Analog Controller (DualShock) - Button Bindings

Controls used:

• Trackball = Mouse
• Button 1 = Cross(X) 
• Button 2 = Circle(O)
• Start = Start
• Coin 1 = Select
• Coin 2 = L2
• Service = L3
• Test = R3

Maybe someone will do a duck station fork to support all Playstation based arcade

 

I know they run in mame but they need some work to be perfect

 

I will check this one for Simpsons Bowling

I'm actually already researching if I can use duckstation for all PS1 arcade boards.  starting with Konami 573 first since in theory it should somewhat similar to Simpsons Bowling

You mean the "Konami" System 573. But it's understandable.

It doesn’t work in MAME already?

not correctly.  the character voices stop working after the first voice plays.  plus in mame there's the initial nvram issue on first boot where you have to hold f2, press f3, and then continue holding f2 until the game actually boots.

What About Emulation of Konami M2 for This?
I'm Wondering About Polystars that playable for That Fork.

[7zxkv]

M2 is not Playstation based (except for SPU).

[MFT_Man]

The M2 was supposed to be based on the cancelled successor to the 3DO.

Thanks so much for this! I've been waiting forever to hear the voices. I'm on Windows 7 playing with a trackball and it works perfectly. The test menu crashes sometimes but settings can still be saved.
