Twiddle - Turbo Team - 58,270 - LOL - (MAME)

Fucking tank driver won't get out of his hole so everyone else killed me.

Bonus: Had to paste 3 images together because MAME won't screencap all of them.

I'm laughing.

Turrican - Oldschoolers - 1.355.760 - ACFI - (50hz PS2)

First crappy score.

Need serious help for this game - unlike Yahho-! I'm pretty much a Darius newbie. Don't know any location of hidden silver crests, 1ups and such.

Again, is the PC port acceptable? I'll probably use MAME anyway, but just in case.

No miss, no bomb, capture x 5 (missed the octopus).

Shocky - Oldschoolers - 3,069,750 - ABDHLQV (PS2 Taito Legends 2)

Finally, a hori! And no juggling involved! That damn octopus caught me off guard in V

Could have gotten a very nice capture bonus...

(Mods, could we have a separate subforum for tournaments? Would make it easier to find the relevant threads...)

Hey guys, I suck at capturing.

Probably not going to update in a really long while. Drama in my family going on at the moment.

Wow.. so any hi-score from a game is acceptable this week? I should just post my latest UD scores and be done with it!

A tip for those having performance problems [insert penis jokes here [insert "insert penis" jokes here]]:

I normally use the command line MAME because a lot of the GUIs aren't optimized. However, you'll want autofire for this game, so using MAME32Plus is more or less a must. However, the official (I think) MAME32Plus builds aren't optimized, so they run like shit. For example, the i686 command line MAME can run this game at 170-180% on my computer, whereas it runs at only 70-75% with MAME32Plus (and the fact that it defaults to "Draw Every Frame" instead of autoskipping bothers me, especially in a tournament setting, since it actually slows down the game instead of making it choppy).

Anyhoo, the first Google match for "mame32plus optimized" is this page, which has optimized builds. Now the game runs smooth for me, autofire and all. Or maybe there's official optimized MAME32Plus builds, but I'm too lazy to look.

And for that, you're to be forced into playing XDR for a week.

Can't possibly be worse than this game.
