You guys know you can move left & right while looping, right?  :dizzy:

really?



AlienInferno:

Quick question.

My rom 1942b shows up as "1942 (First Edition)" and the rom 1942 shows up as "1942 (Revision B)".

Which one should I be playing?

Like I say, there is something wrong with my cab, might be the XP install. No has been able to get to the bottom of it. I tried all sorts of installs, each one had problems. Sometimes no sound, sometimes only one USB port worked, or whatever. This install, the only problem is that if I hit button one and two at the same time, the position of your sprites freezes. You have to 'double tap' the joystick to unstick it. Really, really frustrating on Scramble  :angry:

Next time the guts of my cab need replacing, I'll just buy a cheap laptop with it's nice new legal OS already installed  ;D

What I wouldn't give for a brand new motherboard that takes win98se without a hitch. I miss that mobo...

Oh, and alieninferno, they always describe the exact rom in the first post. In this case it's 1942B. Don't worry about what it shows up as.

Only for (roughly) the first half of the loop, once the plane is descending I believe it locks the position in which it's going to land.

To tell you the truth, I rarely use the loop. At least, not during the regular levels. When I encounter the big boss plane, I will use a loop there.

Revision B is the one that is listed above.

But, I don't really think it matters. There aren't any gameplay differences between the two revisions. I believe they were only hardware revision changes, but the game code is the same.
