Sam & Max Wak-a-Rat

Post by Aokubidaikon »

Aaaaah how frustrating! No way anyone will be able to hit 20 out of 40 rats using the GP2X's joystick at the Wak-a-Rat game at the carnival...
I guess the only way to get past this bit right now is exporting the save-file to PC and use the mouse to win.

Really?, it is harder with the GP2X stick for sure but it can be done :). The other option is to do what you suggest as that works just fine.

Or perhaps use a breakout box and an USB mouse (if it's supported). :)

It is ;), that also works. Infact I do most of my coding for the GP2X with it running in a small windows on my PC via TV out , having a keyboard and mouse on the GP2X is damm handy for coding and testing not just playing games.

Mouse is supported? Great! I'll try to hook one up and give it another try! I will get those rats!

I just wanted to thank DJWillis for his work on the GP2X port of the ScummVM engine.

I had never played Sam N' Max before, and so am doing that now on the GP2x. Unfortunately, I had no luck at all with the wak-a-rat game.

I was using an older version of the GP2x port, upgraded to a new one, bought a powered hub to go along with the ArtTaylor USB cable I ordered, and the mouse worked great!

Save file didn't work with the new version, but I wasn't very far into things anyway. :)

Thanks again. I hope the mouse support will make this much easier - I wasn't having any luck with the joystick. Best I could do was about 13.
