Tracker Hero AGA Beta released

[Vulture]

Kudos for a great game! As Cammy said, the only pre-built choice is Paul's, works great!

Does this game work with an CD32 controller so the four coloured buttons works as the "guitar" buttons? Hopefully someone understands what I'm trying to ask .

And where do you find the mod's that have the dat files already in the "datas" drawer? Especially the turrican2_intro.mod.dat file confuses me, since the turrican2 soundtrack is not originally in .mod format.

Thanks

yes, I just tested with a CD32 controller. The coloured buttons match and work perfectly with those in the game!

Thanks mate, I certainly would have not looked from ClassicWB, it a long time since I had that installed on my 1200

What fixes updates are in this new version? new video on youtube?

[amigadave]

The author of this game has asked me to use it as part of the Amiga Game Competition at this weekend's AmiWest 2010 Show.  I have found someone that can bring a PS2 guitar to the show, but he only has the C64 adapter, not Paul's Amiga adapter.  Is there anyone available that can send me an adapter to use at the show?  I will mail it back to you on Monday after the show is over.

Thanks,

[lionstorm]

too bad you can not even use of joystick !

it is either keyboard (ouch) (can not modify), CD32 controller or PS2 guitar...

although it is seems a nice game, what about a 2 players version ? is it planned ? :-)

Dave, as it says on the website, the Toni Westbrook PSX64 adapter will probably work.

Both adapters work through the joystick port.

The controls supported in this version are:

-Keyboard
-CD32 pad
-PS2 adapter + PS2 guitar
-PS2 adapter + PS2 dance mat

The PS2 adapter tested is the one made by Paul Willingham. I'm not sure how other adapter will work, maybe the mapping is not the same or they don't support CD32 buttons.

Is anybody knows how PSX64 maps the PSX pad buttons to the Amiga please let me know!

[Cammy]

I guess people don't even read the thread, this has already been discussed.

THE SHREDZ64 ADAPTER DOES NOT WORK WITH TRACKER HERO!!!

If you all wait a few more weeks AmigaManiac.com will be selling the correct, fully-compatible adapter based on Paul Willingham's design. I don't know if it's such a good idea to contact Paul for an adapter anymore since he will probably be busy with the first batch of 50 PIC chips which will be used in the bulk lot of adapters that are being made for AmigaManiac.com.

I really hope someone who already has the correct PS2-CD32 adapter can donate it for use at the games competition at AmiWest, Tracker Hero is a great game to play with a group of people, and if you guys bring your kids along they'll almost certainly know how to play it straight away and hopefully have fun with it too.

[Cammy]

The Shredz64 adapter can only emulate a 1-button joystick, so I'm guessing it either uses some data-polling which is interpreted by the Shredz64 game as the different buttons, or it remaps each of the buttons to a direction on the stick. It would probably be possible to write support for the interface into Tracker Hero but until it's directly supported, it won't work.
