Way to go Tanner!  Glad to see you submitting again
In the summer that you came
There was something eating everyone
And the sunshine fund was low
We couldn't greet you with a simple hello

Want to make sure my settings are right in MAME for submissions before I get a good score and find out something is messed up. All dumb deaths.

Date was 1/10/2018. Comments/advice on general play style welcomed. I do know how to not die in every spot I died, just silly unforced errors. Goal with this approximate level of pressing is 1.15, and If I wanted 1.2 I would add g6 backjumping,more multi-girder rejumps of triples, and I’d stop panic grabbing. Oh, and I wouldn’t be happy with 0 point deaths because I jumped a few frames late on elevator making retreat impossible.

But to be fair, I really just want to make sure that my settings are right so the game I want to have will actually be accepted.

Your submission looks good! Your INP has been verified and your score has been added to the HSL. I've listed your name as "dnickolas", so let me know if you want something different. The only thing I would recommend (for my own sanity) is using a different version of WolfMAME. 0.179 has a bug in the way the recorded speed is displayed. It makes it a real pain to verify that INPs are above the 90% average recorded speed threshold (yours was good, 100.000504%). 179 is the only version with that bug, so you can go back a version or forward a version and you'll be fine.

As for comments/advice, I'll have to leave that to better players.  All I can say is...don't die. ;D

OK I’ll go to .191 then - I’m on that on my other machine anyhow and thought this one had it.

Thanks a lot - now I’m free to try more runs.

This is one 1M+ score I think a lot of us were very eager to see! Congratulations sir! Your PB has been verified and updated on the HSL! Glad I could catch most of it live. Now it's time for the 1.1M grind.  :D

Great work, Estel!  Hopefully I'll be joining the list before the year is over.  Sorry, I mean to say before my life is over.

Welcome to DKF! Unfortunately I was unable to play back your INP.  :( The INP looks like a WolfMAME 0.189 INP, and I used the Windows and Linux versions of 0.189, but the playback desyncs very early in the game (meaning the game dies off, but I can still see your inputs as if you're still playing). Did you use a different front-end for WolfMAME, or a different build?

I compiled the WolfMAME V0.189 sources on my Mac and use this build for playing and recording DK sessions. To be honest I do not have a clue why the resulting INP does cause such issues on a Windows or Linux system... Bad luck for me, maybe I'll switch to the Windows build of WolfMAME running in a VM on my system and try that out.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your effort and letting me know of the issues!

Cheers,
Guido

Ok, that makes sense as I've seen that issue before. Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac to verify scores (a newer one anyway), so if it's not too much a trouble, creating a Windows/Linux INP would be greatly appreciated. We certainly want to get you on the scoreboard, so we'll work something out! Thanks for your patience!

So, another try. This time the inp was recorded on a Windows 7 machine running WolfMAME v0.189 and can hopefully be verified. The score itself is not as good as that from my first submission but it's still ok (at least for me), so let's try and get it on the scoreboard ;)

OK here's another run. Also not great but it's a "low pace" run a bit deeper. About 650k, level 15 or 16, this time on wolfmame 193 (apparently that's the new one - I upgraded both machines to that now). Hopefully this one is better than the 179 I used last time. A 450k man is the best part of this.

Not even top 100. Boo.

Everything looks good! Great score, sir! Your INP has been verified and your score has been updated on the HSL.

Hello,
I'm brand new to the forum and just trying to submit my first score. I think I've attached the inp file, but not sure what the other files I need are. Any assistance appreciated, thanks.
