TeknoParrot updates!
Added 2020-04-12 08:23:41 +0000 UTCSo many updates coming recently that it is crazy, here are some takes from latest work.
Outrun 2 Special Tours Super Deluxe is now playable with AMD GPUs thanks to Nezarn and his restless work with the shaders. The fix can be found in our discord.
Also Nezarn fixed the ranking saving, nice job.
Harm has made various improvements with audio emulation of Gaelco games, Tokyo Cop is pretty perfect but Ring Riders and Championship Tuning Race still requires a bunch of work.
Also Ring Riders, Championship Tuning Race now have a resolution patcher and AMD fixes available thanks to Nezarn. Also Input emulation has been vastly worked on by Boomslangnz. This even includes PIN saving and such wow.
Championship Tuning Race and Ring Riders to be supported will take some time, as Ring Riders has bad graphics artifacts and Championship Tuning Race requires some online emulation for saves.
Star Trek Voyager also now has full control emulation thanks to Boomslangnz and we will be releasing support for this game as soon as audio emulation is complete. That can take some time as Harm is our only audio wizard and he is currently busy with Gaelco games.
There has also been lot of work on Super Top Secret game, which is a game that we don't want to disclose information about currently. But we can say that this is one of the most popular games in a certain region of the world. Wow. We have already done massive amount of work with it but as it requires bunch of databases and stuff it takes a lot of time :(
Linux ELF Loader has seen a vast amount of improvements internally, we have built various libs from source, implemented test code for VcXSrv which should make even more game supported and added emulation for new APIs and libs. Work on this is mainly done by Reaver, Nezarn and nibs.

Comments
Walking dead arcade, halo arcade, crusin blast I can't stress enough, and Jurassic Park. .
2020-05-15 04:17:40 +0000 UTCTime crisis 4 would be nice as well.
2020-05-15 04:07:49 +0000 UTCWe don't need street fighter 3 3rd strike and king of fighters on teknoparrot. Those titles can be found on mame . teknogods need to focus on raw thrills raving and rail shooters . the more modern titles. You guys are doing an excellent job with these so far. Don't waste energy on games that can be played on mame or Japanese titles We Americans not familiar with.
2020-05-15 04:06:27 +0000 UTCI hate being redundant, but I'm anxious to know when can we expect more raw thrill titles like terminstor and crusin blast? I love these title so much I bought a 300 watt subwoofer and amp to give me the arcade sound for by arcade cabinet.
2020-05-15 04:02:55 +0000 UTCSega rally 3 finally is somewhat working but crashes right before the race starts. When can we expect a full fix?
2020-05-15 03:59:28 +0000 UTCLike the gentleman said above. Jurrasic park arcade. Would be awesome title to release.
2020-05-13 02:09:44 +0000 UTCWe need good titles like jurrasic park, crusin blast, walking dead arcade, not titles like king of fighters and street fighter that can be played on mame. We need to focus on raw thrills arcade titles more.
2020-05-13 02:07:53 +0000 UTCwill crusin blast ever come to teknoparrot
2020-05-11 01:54:39 +0000 UTCi just want to play mario kart ;((((
2020-05-09 13:36:05 +0000 UTCNo but you could buy it and send us the PCB. The PCB could be bricked tho if hacking fails. https://www.thepinballcompany.com/product/jurassic-park-arcade/
2020-04-14 10:31:56 +0000 UTCIs there 1? Im no tech expert thats why i asked 😁 maybe should of said could be and not would 🤣

2020-04-14 09:02:55 +0000 UTCGreat work is there anything news wise wheather jurassic park would be dumped and playable on teknoparrot 🤔😁
2020-04-14 08:58:55 +0000 UTCGuessing this quarantine has given you all time to do some overtime on this stuff, this is great work!
2020-04-13 01:01:20 +0000 UTCGreat update! Excited to see what the secret game will be!!
2020-04-13 00:03:19 +0000 UTCThey will be announced once they are playable, these are progress reports. 🦄
2020-04-12 19:10:50 +0000 UTCit seems tuning race is playable sans audio, is it possible to load the game or do we have to wait until its fully done? because it doesnt show up in the list of games in the ui
