RQ: Strikers 1945 II Stage order

Post by 7711 »

Hello,
I've looked everywhere for this but can't find an answer, so I guess I must be retarded or the answer is obvious for everyone elses but here's my question :
Is it possible to control the stage order in Strikers 1945 II ? Because I really wanted to try 1ccing a Psikyo game and I kind of like this one, but having to progress blinded is really killing me.
Haven't looked for it but is it possible to do it in Gunbird 2 and Dragon Blaze ? Because if it is I'll just switch to either one of them.
Thanks in advance (:

It's random after the first credit. You can reset the order by doing a hard-reset (Ctrl+F3 in MAME).

Oh okay, never noticed it.
I guess it should help me a bit, but I still wish I could practice the game my own way... Some of the firsts stages really kick my ass.
Thanks for the reply !

The PS2 ports of Psikyo games let you select stage order. Alternatively, you could savestate at the ship selection screen to get the same stage order every time, but that would limit your recording options.

So none of the original arcade games have this option ?

No, the arcade games don't have any level select options, other than resetting for the default stage order.

Thanks a lot !
I guess I'll just wait to have a ps2 arcade stick to really get into Psikyo games then, kinda disappointing.
