the first loop

I'll bet someone $5 via paypal. First come first serve. Loser must also publicly admit that I am a bad mother fucker.

Have not played the game in months, maybe years, dunno that much about it, only starting today

The old 'Never played this game before, let's bet and see if I can clear it in a week' hustle.

Hey gaiz I never played'd this Contorah? before, give me $9,000 and a week to clear it ;D

Also I hope you will be recording a MAME .inp for us all. And don't go scouring the internet looking for a Dangun clear where the guy enters 'NEO' or something like that at the end.

No need, C Auto. And what are you using to press fire with your thumb?, a pad? Yuck.

DF has only 1 loop Neon (5 stages), and it's brutally hard. IIRC it took mulletgeezer a month to go from a good stage 5 score to getting the ALL.

Recording inputs on DF is also a minor form of torture due to the long start up time, and if you enable the Full-auto it doubles the time it takes.

EDIT: Also, if you use an older version of wolfmame like 0.99 or something close, you'll get savestates which work perfectly.

Could have done without knowing the first part but thanks for the wolfmame tip

I'd also strongly advise you try and score at least averagely well in the first 3 stages, the extra life is triggered by reaching a certain amount of dancing men (can't remember the exact amount, 2200 maybe?).
If you don't push for score too much you should get it somewhere early in stage 4.

Because of the difficulty of the stage 4 boss and pretty much the whole of stage 5, the extra life is pretty much essential for the extra bombs it gives you.

Wat - letting disco mans bounce isn't playing this game. A bounced out disco man is an ALL FAIL and an instant reset.

It shouldn't be too hard to beat any shmup in a week, if you have a ton of spare time, and if the game isn't crazy hard.

I haven't beat Feveron though, every time I played the normal mode.. I got tired of it and went to something else instead, so congrats if you are still playing this game in a week

To see two grown men duke it out on a real Dangun PCB with supergun or candy cab setup for a measly fiver and bragging rights...that I'd like to see. Why not ante up to twenty bucks instead and not just settle for chmup pocket change? Yeah, a proper Sanwa or Seimitsu joystick is better than a lousy PC gamepad. Whatever works easiest for you in the end. ^_~

Saturn pad, stick might be better but I have no room for my gaming stuff in this apartment. I miss my consoles and sticks but it's gonna be a PC and a pad until I have a more permanent and spacious living situation

C auto? The third button isn't autofire for me if that's what you were referring to. I'm using MameUI32 instead of command line which might explain it

It shouldn't be too hard to beat any shmup in a week, if you have a ton of spare time, and if the game isn't crazy hard.

That is my theory, especially using savestates to practice and lifting strategies from replays rather than taking the time to work them out myself. Unfortunately I may not have a lot of spare time this week as I have been neglecting my schoolwork already. Oh well, it adds to the challenge...guess I'm not sleeping or going out Friday night

croikle · Post by **croikle** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 5:46 am

You have to turn C auto on in the setup menu. Alternatively, use the cat, which has autofire built into its shots.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 10:41 am

IMO Dangun is one of Cave's more difficult one loopers to clear, but with savestates and lots of spare time this should be doable.
Good luck on your self-set challenge, Neon!

Agreed. I'd almost be willing to pay someone 5 bucks just for playing this game for a week.

I would take that. Dangun is the best Cave game by far.
