What were the problems you were having when you had a splash video play in the beginning for big box?

[@DonellHD]

Teknoparrot games appear behind big box on my pc if I use startup video for my teknoparrot platform. But it may not be the same for u.

@rex 1. Add the game through teknoparrot 2. After you've done that check your teknoparrot/user profiles folder and WMMT6R is right there for u.

Oh Hi Donel HD, I'm having problems with how to save the game and when I complete the last step as shown in your video, start the game and it says "Game location not set". I'm starting to find it a bit difficult to figure out how to start the game, and that's all there is to it So can u help me ?Thx U so much

[@DonellHD]

Sounds like u skipped some of the video. Because u would have seen me put the games in teknoparrot as well.

[@marcocotena8527]

Hi, I set all controllers mapping and its perfect, but if I format pc or change pc i must remap all my controllers on every games. Very bad news. Have a solution? Thanks

Unless u use the same controllers and keyboard you have to remap

when i go to game excutable there is no file for Luigi's mansion

[@DonellHD]

luigis mansions exe (Vaccum.exe) always gets detected as a virus. which makes it dissapear out of your directory. its not a virus. Just add it to ur virus exception list so it doesnt make it dissapear again and add it back. it is necessary to play the game.

Thanks so much for the info, I will try it again.

I saw you installed Luigi's Mansion game, I need your help. Some time ago I downloaded the Luigi's Mansion game but the game was not shown in full screen. On the contrary, the screen could be seen enlarged, that is, only a part of it could be seen. Could you tell me how to put the game in full screen, see everything?

You have to go into the ini settings and edit the resolution. I changed it to 1920 x 1080 (the width my pc is set to. And then save. Make sure u overwrite ur ini make a backup of the ini first just to be safe. The ini settings should be in the Luigi mansion folder

When I download teknoparrot it doesn't come with the roms I get that most don't want to share where to get them, problem is I can't find a reliable place to get them where I don't have to pay hundreds of dollars and just cross my fingers that it works at all. Whats the point of 'conserving video game history' if only privoledged people with a rediculous amount of disposable income can buy it? For the prices I've found, I can LITERALLY BUY the original hardware for over 90% of it......

[@DonellHD]

No my friend it doesn't come with roms. Just search the archive sir.....

[@conandude76]

@@DonellHD Archive either points me to sites that charge money for crap that doesn't work, or to files that get to 95% or so, then sit in the queue for weeks without moving. Was kinda my point.
