greenspun.com : LUSENET : MAME Action Replay : One Thread

...Congrats, you have made absolutely great page on G2. That must be the coolest single game-page I've ever seen. There are some very helpful hints for getting into secret-room. And those pictures!!!!

I've tried to get into secret room on early levels with no success. The earliest so far has been after level 20 - from treasure room!, shooting two secret walls and immediatly after that exit moved "under me". Is that really a fact that using mame it's not possible to enter SR on early stages? What about "watch what you shoot": Can you shoot more than two foods or hidden walls, and still enter SR?

You know of course that using mame35Final, It's nowadays possible to play the game well over 20 levels(slapstick protection stuff). Stalling doors takes 19 seconds. With a key little more. Stalling walls into exits takes 360 seconds (or was it 300). Potioning deaths gives you 1000,2000,4000,6000 or 8000 points, but I haven't figured out yet how the order changes, when shooting deaths? Today played a game of 187 000, but there were many 1000 point deaths included. Maybe tomorrow...

I'll have to ask my friend to look at your page, he might have some GOOD hints.

Tommi this is from a history.dat file. You can find it at http://cubeman.snipercade.com/index.html

"To manipulate the point value of Death, shoot him. Death's point value takes the following progression: 1000-2000-1000-4000-1000-6000- 1000-8000, and then back to start. His value keeps from the previous game."
