Judge Dredd -----> How to save?

Postby roioros » Wed May 03, 2017 3:57 pm

I need help, I do not know how to save in this game.
The main menu has an option to load a game but I do not see an option to save the game.

I was able to reach the third level (but not being able to save a game) then I always have to start over again.

Any help?

:thanks:

Infos i found - This game uses passwords, in some levels you can find a floppy disk pickup. If you pick this up and you die, you'll get the password for that stage. But not every stage has a password.
Says here saves go in - <path-to-game>\DAT2\SLOT*.DAT
<path-to-game>\DAT2\HISCORE.DAT
Saves are numbered 0-8. .INF files contain save file names (not needed to load saves).
GAME.DAT contains an autosave of the last level loaded.

I think the passwords are used by the versions for sega genesis and super nintendo.
This DOS version never mention anything about passwords (There is no place where you can enter passwords)

The game never created me an autosave nor did it let me save a game.

Very strange, someone who has tried it, could at some point save?

Then, to be able to save first is necessary to take a floppy disk item and that only appears in a few levels?

That's awful :(

Would be fabulous if someone could hack it and make possible to save a game with a key (in the keyboard) in any place where you want.

I believe SVN (or some other build) of DOSbox supports save-states, try those unfortunately :(

Yes, the port of the "DOSBox" from the korean "Ykhwong" support savestates, although it is a little unstable, I could try.
