I would guess it's illuminated when you have nitro available and goes out when you run out.
Nitro - The only lamp I see in the instructions is the one inside the nitro button. View buttons - active view button is illuminated Total amount to play entered - delay, then start button lights up when start screen appears Judging by the one on the left, nothing is going on during attract mode.ĮDIT: There is a little bit, but only during a specific part: see avi file here: I know it has a digital speedo and led tacho, but I'm not particularly familiar with the blink patterns of the view, start, nitro and race leader buttons.Ĭan't say I invested much time in ensuring this is the best one, but here is a video of some of the lamps.
If any of you have some spare time to kill something that would be helpful for the mamehooker end of things would be some video of the cabinet in attract mode. Since it's not nearly as much work, I don't mind doing this for the other games as well pending that I can spread it out over time of course. so once I'm satisfied with the data collection I just modify the fxt wrapper, do a few cosmetic changes and it's ready to go. Keep in mind I've already written the program. So I need to part out the views and find the FF data, which seems to be in there and pre-normalized from the other data I've been finding. Turns out it's simple like in Outrun 2k6, you just write the gear number you want. I decided to look at it another 10 minutes and managed to get the gas and brake analog values as well as determining the method to re-institute the dedicated shifter. The hacking is going at a blinding speed. it appears to be in offroad thunder at least, only not hooked up.
I'm fairly confident I can get FF working. Well it's essentially the same version as this one, only the required system specs are much lower. I'll go ahead and get the view value and the rpm so those can be fed to mamehooker as well. Otherwise I can write a wrapper fairly easily. So if anyone can help me out let me know. reading it and writing it are two different things.
#HYDRO THUNDER PC ISO CODE#
Unfortunately code caves and assembly aren't my field of expertise. So three lines of assembly and it's fixed. 4 to get the 4 integer resolution, subtract 2, to put the left values in the negative range, and store it in the game engines steering value, which I also have the address to. they took a game expecting a float of -2 to 2, an analog, float value and fed it one of 3 digital values even though they read a gamepad to get an analog, float value.Īll that needs done is the joystick x axis, which I have the address to, needs to be multiplied by. Eventually it converts it to one of three values. Now the game does all sorts of nonsense to this value which I'm largely ignoring as it isn't important. The X axis is 0 (full left) to around 65,000 (full right) or read as a float 0 to 10. The game reads the controllers via HID interface, which is nice because all the values will be the same.
#HYDRO THUNDER PC ISO PATCH#
Is there anyone out there that's good at assembly hacking? The reason I ask is that while I can certainly write a wrapper for the game the change that needs to be made is so small that an exe patch might be better. I found the analog value for the wheel, blocked it, and confirmed that I could adjust it manually in an analog fashion. The game also has a “credit” system where each event, online and offline, gives you cumulative credits based on your performance that gives you new watercraft, levels, and challenges for different milestones.Ok, that was surprisingly easy. The game supports both local split-screen multiplayer for up to four players as well as an online mode for up to eight players, including a new game mode known as “Rubber Ducky” where two teams crash into each other to make sure their VIP (the player with the rubber ducky boat of their color) crosses the finish line first.
