Spider Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 Excellent thank you. :) The speed increase is quite noticeable and makes it more playable. I used to sometimes play the original at a higher speed than normal to make it more 'lively' but with this version its a nice balance 'as is' jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterion Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) Well, I finally got around to updating this. I managed to wring just a touch more speed out of it, in both 48k and 128k modes. Testing the Central Cavern air timer gives about two seconds shaved off of the previous version and back-to-back testing between the two reveals a slight, but still noticeable increase in frame rate. An updated Turbo JSW will also follow in a day or two... B) M Edited June 18, 2018 by Mysterion Spider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 It's up there now, dude. :thumbsup: M :) I see! Just tested it (thankfully the older version is still there at the moment!) and its definitely faster, top job! :thumbsup: Mysterion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterion Posted June 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Thanks, dude. I look forward to somebody who can play it better than me sticking a longplay up on YouTube. I'm still stuck on the Revenge Of The Kong Beast... :rolleyes: M Spider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Thanks, dude. I look forward to somebody who can play it better than me sticking a longplay up on YouTube. I'm still stuck on the Revenge Of The Kong Beast... :rolleyes: M If its any consolation I used to really struggle sometimes with Menagerie until I realised I could simply jump on a crumbly and wait (easy solution but no the best or quickest by any means) to sort my issues with that cavern. Both Kong screens I have not really had that much of an issue with, it is easier to not flip the second switch at a price of losing points/score though. The WareHouse I will struggle to complete and SkyLabs usually causes me problems although studying the pattern a bit does help. Solar Power I can do but its a kind of 50/50 if there's enough air for me! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
