São Paulo, BrazilHi,
I want to run this game and I noticed Ewil uses an autosplitter. Is is available anywhere?
Hi, I'm looking forward to start running this game in the future. My suggestion is to remove load times using the autosplitter.
Hi everyone,
In the past two days I worked on this:
https://github.com/pedro-walter/topgear-autosplitter/blob/hangon/superhangon.asl
Check the README for instructions on how to use it. Just instead of the topgear.asl, use superhangon.asl:
https://github.com/pedro-walter/topgear-autosplitter/blob/hangon/README.md
The most important is that the sector calculations are correct as reviewed by petaQ on my recent run. I did not test other arcade modes but I believe they will work fine.
I will keep improving it on the next days and adapt it to work both for Arcade and Original, clean the code and also fixing bugs. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
Hi everyone, apologies for taking long to reply.
I don't have a Genesis anymore, used to have one when I was a kid. So emulator it is. Is there any emulator that can run it precisely? Otherwise I'll stick to Emuhawk.
RTA I think is the proper way to do it since we can crash on purpose to generate funds, but it needs to save more time than the time lost getting into the race. So I doubt it's worth much, specially the first ones that are quite short.
About Africa, who knows? I might very well give it a try :)
Do you guys know any memory variables that change when each race is finished? That's all I need for an auto splitter if we are going RTA.
Thanks for the warm welcome! And the quick reply :)
Great tutorial, had no idea that going to the inside would be faster in-game time wise. Guess it aplies to Original mode as well? And it seems you already poked around with the memory addresses, those will be valuable to make the autosplitter. I will also look for other variables in the Original mode for debugging and quickly testing different parts and their advantages.
No matter how buggy the game is I'm sure there's a way to autosplit it, just might take some time to figure it out specially since you guys already know how the bug works.
Thanks for the FAQ, I'll dig into it and see what we can figure out on a route. Doubt that the fastest way will be crashing on purpose because that takes quite a long time and the time saved by upgrades should be only seconds, but research will tell.
Since Original has no one running it I think it's a nice groundbreak but Arcade is also fun and can help hone skills. Plus I played Original way more than Arcade mode.
Hi,
I love this game and I'm planning to be a runner in the Original Mode (maybe also arcade in the future). A few questions before I dive in:
- What are the difference between revisions? Found something about Rev00 and Rev01, but the ROM I found says Rev A!
- Do we have an autosplitter? If not I might start working on one, both for arcade and original.
Also, any tips would be appreciated as I try to understand how everything works.
