Donkey Kong Country 2 Bug

Post by tedbradford »

Bug 01: Upon entering the Captain's cabin on the first level (Gangplank Galleon), the game returns to the main menu/map instead of going inside the cabin.

Bug 02: Gangplank Galleon's minigames are buggy. Strange artifacts appear randomly while playing them. Also, sometimes the finish is cut off by the screen.

Bug 03: On Gangplank Galleon you cannot finish the level. After the "no Rambi beyond this point" sign, the screen cuts you off so you cannot go any further.

oh, use a earlier revision of the rom, i believe v1.1 requires OpenBUS which is not properly emulated via zsnes yet.

blah this only affected Donkey Kong Country 1.

Until Zsnes 1.52 (or whatever it's called) comes out, try SnesGT 0.230 Alpha 0 as there are no bugs in any on the DKC games. If anyone doubts this, I'll show a gameplay video if I must.

I'm running Ubuntu, and there doesn't appear to be a Linux version of SNESGT. :?

I've tried compiling it from the source code (from zsnes.com) and I've downloaded it from Ubuntu's Multiuniverse repository.
