DK Score Submissions

[DonkeyShlong]

I'm having a real issue with OBS and WolfMAME.  I'm trying to do dual capture but when I try, my frame rate drops no matter what settings I try    It makes springs almost impossible to do properly.

I assume I'm good to use MAME64 so long as I have both a camera recording my screen and control panel input, as well as the application capture in the top right?  I figured this would be a more conclusive way as I'm in the video also.

Wrong thread, please remove..

Submitting new PB, done tonight on Twitch - 555,000

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/506687503
Game starts at around 00:45:00 and ends at about 2:04:00

I took video of the CP/PCB/Remix Kit also and restarting the game just in case.  I did verify for my first submission here and this was done on the same cabinet.

Great score, sir. Especially considering the early deaths...epic last man! Your score has been verified and updated on the HSL. Please continue to go good.

Thank you sir.  I appreciate the time and work you put into this community!  It feels good to see my score in the Kong tracker!

I took on board the advice given to me by a few members here (thanks Sith and Jonesy).  I ignored an early stupid set of deaths, and went for it.  I got over 350k with one man and got over 500k.

I have been having a real hard time keeping focus and my nerves about me when recording, but I'm slowly getting used to it.  I hid my score so that I could focus on the game, and it really helped me play like I know i'm capable of.

I accidentally got a peek of of my score one I started getting into rhythm, and it fell apart.  I rushed the pies for quick points and being on the last life knocked my confidence a bit, and I lost it in a silly way.  I believe I've got what it takes to get to the KS, so that's hopefully my next update 

I don't think it's too shabby of a score for a months worth of playing.  Any advice from my video welcome 

I'm going to my local arcade on Saturday.  Unfortunately my phone isn't capable of recording for more than an hour.  If I get a high score or KS, am I able to have a friend record the last part, then ask the manager to verify?  Would I need him to open the control panel and show the insides within the same video?

If you can only film part of the game, then you need to do the following:

1) Film as much of the end of the game as possible
2) Immediately start a new game and play until you reach 7,000 points (to demonstrate proper game settings)
3) Do not power cycle the cab before doing the above step
4) Let the attract mode run for at least one full cycle so we can see the copyright info
5) Do your best to have someone open the cab so we can see the control panel and PCB
6) Do all of this in the same video

Thanks.  I'll keep the post on my phone just in case

Buy an extra power brick there like 5$ should get you through the game.

I seem to remember someone saying that they did this, and phones tend to cut off at 1 hour, battery good or not.

Nice score!

Hello this is my first post and first submission 

I have not recorded the game so only have the INP file from MAME, I hope this is okay and that I have understood the rules correctly.

The game is a 326100 score which is a PB for me and even though there is a lot of mistakes I am happy with the progress I have made so far in this game!

Well done, sir. Verified and updated on the HSL. If you can score 500k, you're well on your way to a KS!

This appears to be the wrong INP...only plays back to 85k. Hopefully you still have the 849k INP and can post it (please put it in a zip archive if you do)!
