[@boilerhousegarage]

@BushyStallion It likely won't work from a CD-R, check forums to see the problems people have. It will need to be on either an emulator or console modded with an ODE.

[@VOAN]

A good port but many things the dev needs to work on: 1. Accurate scream for the female characters when roundhouse. 2. Fix the camera reveal of the ceiling spikes on the Kombat Tomb stage fatality. 3. Raiden's torpedo should ends with a spinning back flip, not an instant jump. 4. Hit strength on the roundhouse kicks needs to feel stronger, here they take similar damage as uppercut. 5. Slip voice from the opponent when come into contact with the Ground Freeze from Sub-Zero. 6. Some slowdowns from some special moves and animations. 7. Pit II stage fatality is missing the fall break sound when opponent hits the floor. 8. There's no parallax scrolling on the Portal stage, this doesn't need to be change as it makes the stage feel more 3-dimensional. In the official versions, usually the parallax scrolling pushes the floating platforms and the shadow priests a little bit to the side making it look kinda awkward. 9. Shao Kahn as the announcer doesn't yell encouragements like the other versions yet so no Superior, no Outstading, and laughing when characters got caught in combos or in Danger Mode. 10. No cheerings from the crowd at Kahn's Arena when the two bosses are beating the player. This feelings like the Saturn and the PS1 versions and it needs to be fix. 11. There should not be any fatality count for the two bosses. 12. Shao Kahn needs all his taunts and trash talks in the game. Quotes like: I rule this world, I am Shao Kahn, Are you trying to win, You suck, Is that your best, hahahaha, You weak pathetic fool, I come for your soul, and Don't make me laugh should all be added. 13. Shao Kahn having his hammer from MK3 is nice.

Please try to remember this version isn’t trying for “arcade accurate” as it’s implementing more of an original feel in relation to the system it’s on.

[@boilerhousegarage]

I'm a massive PlayStation 1 fanboi, but have to admit, there was something about the 3DO when I bought a cheaper (£199.99 IIRC) one after the PlayStation's release. Many of the games like Road Rash, Gex and especially Total Eclipse (pretty much unplayable on PS1) were badly ported over to the PlayStation and are considerably better to play on the 3DO.

[@snkfan]

[@aaronadams4097]

Actually the visuals for this are rather stellar. Never had the 3DO but I could remember seeing in ads in magazines back in the day and thinking about how good the games looked. Sadly this console was just never on the radar because of cost and it wasn’t made by Nintendo or Sega at the time

[@ItsTeezoUBZ]

That upper cut drives me crazy. Everytime.

[@DejoyTV]

EXCELLENT this version coming along nicely!

[@wootks]

Really shows the 3do can do well with the right programming effort put into it. It seems like most 3do games were rushed to market. Things were moving so fast in that era that if your machine was hard to dev for you just got really shitty ports.

[@boilerhousegarage]

Sort of. Many were rushed as the system was out long before any games were ready for it, but it was easier and cheaper for developers than all the cartridge-based systems, including Jaguar and almost as easy as the PS1--but that was considerably more expensive for licencing. If you try the games that were on 3DO and then play them on PS1, you'll find the former are surprisingly better quality with the exception of games like The Need for Speed and Doom, which were completely remade, not ported over.

[@wootks]

@@boilerhousegarage Yeah so few people had a 3DO that developers were never going to spend very long making a 3DO game. The 3DO hardware is not bad, but it did seem like the devkits in the early days didn't really win anybody over and most kids got a PS1 once they hit $299 or less. I completely dismissed the system during that time once I saw the Doom port. If they were not going to take a mega popular game like that serious, I knew other devs would not with other games on the platform. It's not like I had $700 to burn on a niche system anyways. Things would have been more interesting if they were able to stay in the market though. That era was so competitive that even industry titans like 3dfx and Sega met a similar fate as the 3DO as time went on. It was an era of system power doubling on the PC side of things every few months vs the 10-20% improvements gen-over-gen we see today. I am all for the 3do getting proper ports it deserved back in the day though. This MK port would have blown my mind back in the day!

[@boilerhousegarage]

@wootks Yes and that could perhaps be seen as the 3DO's archilles heel on its other foot, as developers were free to release whatever they pleased on the system due to the unique licencing model. There wasn't any quality control from the 3DO company nor the manufacturers of the systems (another unique business model). Good point about Sega. Even Nintendo had to change their target audience/market rather than directly compete. Teenaged me was lusting after an Atari Jaguar back in the day, but as soon as I saw the pre-release PlayStation, I started saving towards it instead. The 3DO reminded me of the earlier Philips CDi, as I saw how much they cost and knew they were out of my reach.

[@wootks]

@@boilerhousegarage Yeah I really wanted a Jag back in the day just for AvP.

scaling down the assets to fit the 3do's resolution is the way to go but still this is a stellar effort.

[@greensun1334]

The arcade original runs at 55hz in 400x256 pixels resolution, and this port is 60hz and 320x224 pixels (probably) and still uses original sized characters, that's why the sprites look bigger and also their idle animation seems slightly faster.

[@boilerhousegarage]

I have an FZ-1 modded with an optical drive emulator, so I can play the reworked Doom and I'm looking forward to this. Careful with trying to burn to a CD, as the 3DO is very very picky on what it loads. Despite no copy protection, most people find they can't make CD-Rs work on either the FZ-1, FZ-10 or Goldstar 3DOs.. I've got Super Street Fighter 2, but only have the standard joypads, so with MK2, I might just fork out the £100 for the Capcom 6-button controller.

[@haunteddeandollsuk]

does the 3DO not have an SD card mod thing such as fenrir for sega saturn ? or Gdemu for sega dreamcast ? then you can just load the game onto SD card after downloading it on the internet 😅

[@boilerhousegarage]

@haunteddeandollsuk Yes, that is what the optical drive emulator is. You can use an SD, microSD or a USB memory stick. Perfect for just downloading the iso and playing directly, which is how I play optiDOOM. The mention of burning them to CD made me point out that it rarely works on 3DO. The drive just doesn't like CD-Rs for some reason.

Unfortunately it's not just that fireball, the frame data for all moves is pretty off. It almost feels like a different game.

His NFS video where he shows the 3do version running 11 fps is silly too, that game relies on your cdrom drive to stream during racing and his system clearly hadnt received maintenance. My 3do runs it at around 20 fps give or take. To make it simple, the 3do would perform BETTER with multiple layers and it would save ram in some cases. It's cheaper to have multiple layers, than it is to fill the screen full with 320x240 worth of pixels for the 3do to render. Stages like Ken's, with the boats at the docks, you could cut that stages ram consumption in half. I could go into full breakdown how that works but KZbin will hide my comment

@@samgao for an explanation that should be short enough to not be removed, the 3do has the CEL engine to draw sprites/quads, and the VLDP. The VDLP can render a static 320x240 img or an assigned color at 60fps, while the CEL renders what is on the actual playing field. What you're seeing in this 3do version of MK2 is use of the VDLP for MK2 's static background layer, then cel renders the layers. This technique is also used in Way of The Warrior. For Ken's stage you'd set the VDLP for the light blue color of the sky, then have CEL render the layers and characters. Hope this explanation makes sense

@BushyStallion 🏆😸🍕🍕👍

[@TwistedIdentity]

The screen being so zoomed in bugs me

[@BIGGIEDEVIL]

There are so many issues with the game but I’m still down to play it

[@jaredt2590]

Ah making the killer app it never got.

[@sammyramirez6869]

I haven't seen a puma shirt in a long time 😂 but great playthrough

[@BushyStallion]

Costco special bro, 14.99 for the shirt 😂 thanks for the comment 👊🏼

[@UptownPirate13]

U been cookin bro.....wait til i get fightcade 1v1 me

[@BushyStallion]

Will do. What’s preventing you from getting FC already? It’s easy to setup and get running.

[@gregoryleonardo2163]

Yea fightcade uses the MAME versions and u can challenge people online. Use an ethernet connection tho it runs way better and other players know if you are wifi only and wont play u@bushystallion

[@DerekMoore82]

Try it with original sfx enabled, because I think original means "new" original creations, because these sounded like arcade sfx.

[@BushyStallion]

I never thought of that lol you may be right gonna have to check that later today when I get a minute to play again. Thanks for the comment! 👊🏼

We need a Mortal Kombat 3 Sega 32x hack. Someone needs to do it

[@arcadeslum5882]

sega 32x cd lel

[@BushyStallion]

It’s been done. MK2 32X Arcade Edition. I could always showcase it on the channel 👊🏼

[@grgmj1980]

The gameplay mechanics are way off, the hit boxes and hit damage are way off. Also the graphics are zoomed in too much, the character are spaced out too much before the action starts. I can point out numerous other issues. I’m aware that this is a work in progress. I don’t know if the end goal is to get as close to the arcade as possible, and if that’s the case, this game needs alot of work. Graphics and sounds are great but if the gameplay isn’t good then we are witnessing another SNES MK1.

I was wondering how long this was gonna take! I love the big ass sprites. Um! Sexy! Does the increased size affect the game fluidity?

[@Darknight0681]

Those “big ass” sprites are the result of using the arcade assets without taking into account the overall lower resolution of the 3DO output. This messes up gameplay due to the amount of space on screen to maneuver being compromised. I get the feeling the more stuff he tries to tighten up, the more this issue is going to crop up. Wish they just scaled the visuals down accordingly. Like no system at the time had the resolution to pull off a 1:1 conversion and devs back then were smart enough to compensate for this to varying degrees of success.

[@TechRyze]

@@Darknight0681 Would be nice if they're was an option to just let the characters walk another 40px off of the edge of the screen on each side. That should fix it. 40px is quite a lot though, so maybe just under that amount. I'm sure that someone will mod it into shape in the next few years if he releases the source files at some point.

[@BushyStallion]

I personally don’t think so but there’s still a lot of work that needs to be done. Thanks for the comment 👊🏼

[@bredmaster]

Arcades ports were so disappointing (most of the time) back in the day, that inspired a whole generation of coders who are writing the wrongs of the past.

[@captainshiner42]

They were only disappointing because of the disparity between the power of condoles and arcade cabinets. That's the only reason.

[@bredmaster]

@@captainshiner42 No, if anything, the recent hacks of the Street Fighter and MK games on Genesis proved so much more could have been done. Mk3 genesis turned out better than the SNES version though, so at least we got that.

[@captainshiner42]

@bredmaster True.

[@michaelcharlesthearchangel]

I can't wait til we have AI updated versions of original MKI and MKII with 3D photo realistic graphics lifted and upgraded from the old games.

[@BsHaDy21]

Cool game but playing mortal kombat without fatalities is wild. It’s kinda what makes it.

[@BushyStallion]

The Fatalities are gonna be implemented soon. Apparently it’ll take about a week or two for each character however.

[@danielharpermagic9279]

Looks like no one cared about fps 😢

[@archive3do769]

Huh? It's 60fps

[@TORREYTHEPROUDNATIVEAMERIKAN]

🥷

[@LegBreakMMA]

Damn it's pretty buggy hey....

[@BushyStallion]

Lots still to be ironed out, it’s one man doing the programming so it’s a slow process, but it’s looking good 👍🏼

[@mrnicktoyou]

Why do you have the likes disabled? I want to thumb up.

[@BushyStallion]

That’s KZbin not me. I never disable that, KZbin has a million updates and they constantly mess things up lol I appreciate the want to thumbs up however, you rock 👊🏼
