Response to How do you complete karnovj - I don't believe it emulates correctly

from Tim Morrow (tjmorrow@bigpond.com)
Flop, Thanks for replying. Unfortunately you didn't exactly indicate how you killed the last boss so it is not much help to me - can you please explain, I'm very interested. Secondly, did you complete karnov or karnovj - I was asking about karnovj? I've finished karnov with score 999999 uploaded the recording today with comments - just wait for a day (how long does it take?) and you can try it out - it will show you how I did it. Karnovj is harder to get 999999 because you have less enemies in the game but I have done it (but not finished the last boss). Thirdly, I'm claiming that the dip switch settings aren't being emulated correctly since it doesn't play like either the arcade version I played in the late 80's nor like on my arcade machine at home where the last boss takes just a boomerang. Fourthly, if you download my recording it comes with a description of how to use the boomerang on the final boss. Check it out and let me know what you think. I'm more than happy to discuss strategy etc if you are interested. Basically I know of 2 ways to get 999999: 1. As in my recording, get to stage 9 without losing too many lives and then do some points leaching. 2. An easier method is to repeat the water level adnauseum, killing the two TRex's just as the time runs out. You get heaps of K's every time you repeat. Do this until you reach your last life and then continue on with the game.

Finally, how come your fantastic scores aren't recorded - I'd love to see them!!! If they are recorded and I've been looking in the wrong place, let me know.

Cheers, -- Tim
