Title: Wacky Races Taito Type X Loader WIP
Post by: SegaOutrun on January 03, 2015, 02:53:21 am
A few weeks ago, a dump of the Taito X game Wacky Races surfaced. Unlike the Chase HQ dump, this one was uncrypted so all that is need a was a modified launcher and keymapper.

Well, a WIP in progress Launcher has been released on a french forum.

you need to enter service and reset the network everytime you load the game otherwise it will freeze. the first time you reset it, will download a directplay driver to your pc.

shift is view, control is break, space is accel, n is "wacky lever", enter is start, s is coin/service and esc is test. For fullscreen, go into wr.ini and change fullscreen from 0 to 1

It far from perfect but its always nice to have another playable game. hopefully a keymapper will be release soon and a fix for the need to reset the network can be skipped.

Excellent news. Yes a key mapper or being tied in with ArcadePC loader would be great.

That umbrella is annoying, right in front of the horizon line  :-\

zero racing games are supported with arcadepc loader. Both Battle Gear 4 and Wacky races load using a modified version of the main.exe.

edit: you can use game loader all rh.exe on battle gear and wacky but, its necessary.

I found it weird that most cars are actually blocking  a apart of your view. i check youtube video and its seems like it made like that. the view button only gives you reverse view

They're two different games, but they do both look very similar though.
