Its the Season 5 Final! It's Week 10 and its going to be tough, as we're playing current season leader TK421's nomination: Rygar by Tecmo in 1986. ![]() Twin Galaxies has a million plus score to aim for with MAME, though there are higher arcade scores, probably down to the change in difficulty level. We won't be using those either, as the default is 'easy'... Default settings: 1 Coin/1 Credit Lives = 3 Unknown = Off Bonus Life = 50000, 200000, 500000 Unknown = Off Unknown = Off Difficulty = Easy 2P Can Start Any Time = No Allow Continue = Yes (You may wish to change this to 'No' for ease of use) No continues allowed, no auto-fire allowed Scores to be in by 12:00 noon on 26/11/06. Final Scores at 12:00 on 26/11/06 1) 2487470 - TK421 = 100.00 points 2) 1520090 - MadroXounds = 77.92 points 3) 684740 - Kaiserpc = 58.50 points 4) 597250 - Opa-Opa = 54.11 points 5) 567660 - A.J.Green = 50.88 points 6) 535040 - Supermario = 47.60 points 7) 492190 - Zaphod79 = 44.10 points 8) 401070 - Sureshot = 39.64 points 9) 317660 - Elgin_McQueen = 35.33 points 10) 234460 - Necronom = 31.03 points 11) 208710 - Smurph = 27.88 points 12) 192470 - Merman = 24.92 points 13) 189510 - RS200 = 22.23 points 14) 146670 - Fairziff = 18.74 points 15) 139710 - SirClive = 15.97 points 16) 100880 - Stomach = 12.55 points 17) 76360 - Antiriad2097 = 9.43 points 18) 67770 - Markopoloman = 6.63 points 19) 48170 - Ghostbiscuit = 3.60 points [size=7]Congratulations TK421 on winning the final week AND the season! :ph43r: [/size] |

I've played this before, albeit briefly. Seemed ok from first impressions. If it's as good as Black Tiger, I might put in the effort to take on TK again

Why so sad Opa? Its not like any of us really stand a chance of beating TK this season - the only way it'd be possible is if you won and TK421 scored less than 2 league points. Not going to happen is it... From what I remember, this was an enjoyable enough game down the arcade, though as usual I was never much good at it. |

When I was a younger man than I am today my local Video store (a new concept, a shop that rented out films, just like you could go to the pictures and watch) had 3 arcade cabinets next to the Betamax section. I spent all my "after school" time in that mini arcade and have to say, was one of "THE" players in that small, little world, and then came RYGAR.. I watched in awe as one of the bigger boys played Rygar on 10p for hours after school one day.. He could fly through the levels, collecting power ups that made him seem almost God like.. I wanted to be that good at this game, I spent all my dinner money for months trying to get close to one of the only people who could Kane me on that machine.. I never got anywhere near... I picked this game hoping that it might get me a few points and even make me look as good as the Bigger boys, looks like this game might be my Unicorn...

196290 Hmm, seems like my new dual monitor setup doesn't like printscreen if I'm using extended desktop. Then, when I did change to 1 screen to test it out, it closed MAME! Luckily, I did press f12 before that so got a png. Looks like I'll have to do things this way from now on. It does work again if I turn one off, but nevermind. Edit: cracked it, alt+printscreen is the thing to use. |

201940 A fun game - but the main thing i remember out of this in the arcade was the nice little trick that worked on the one in my local arcade Put 20p in (game was 10p a go) , start a 1player game , as the writing was scrolling out the intro message press the 2player button , you got a 2 player game and still had your remaining credit (so 3 goes for 20p :-) Was never all that great at it despite the extra practice

okay, I'm sure it's been answered before but how do you open the .inp file with mame32 or mamefx? When I try and open it, it just complains about missing rygar files? Is it just me or are the controls quite unresponsive for this? sometimes when I push a direction, or fire nothing happens! And then I die! Still sh*t at this Nearly at the point of not bothering with this anymore

You had a different version of the ROM. In MAME, the 'Set 2' is actually an earlier version than the 'Set 1' we're playing. Set 1 is a bugfixed version which removes the credit flaw you found. [size=1]Scores updated in first post[/size] |

I am kind of tempted not to play this weeks game. I have a very low first attempt score and that is probably all I will do. Looking at the scores already posted it looks like anyone who doesn't get the million points bonus is getting a shit score anyway and that doesn't motivate me to play it. |

Some of us play just for the sport, not necessarily for high scores. Just gives a better feel for a game, lets me make an informed deciision on it rather than just a quick play then dump it. F'rinstance, Arabian Nights is absolute cack, and I can say that having spent quite some time on it. Far too much time tbh. |

I'm sorta with Sir CLive on this one. I think the game is great but what's the point if only certain people know where this huge bonus is? Shouldn't the community be helping each other out to the location of the bonus?? This is all IMHO of course. |

I think TK421 has been very helpfull with this game.. Download the file he has given the link to and study it for a little while. I think it is great that he, along with everyone else offers help to anyone who asks Heres to season 6 - may TK421 be rubbish at the games we pick
