| | Like Irem Arcade Hits (see entry 1572), it's another compilation of old arcade games in a DotEmu emulator package--from which the arcade ROMs can be extracted. The Trilogy compilation is available on Steam. The ROM extraction guide is https://github.com/farmerbb/RED-Project/wiki/Double-Dragon-Trilogy : ~~~~~~~~~ These instructions are for a Debian-based Linux distro. For Windows, follow these instructions using WSL. Open up a terminal window and navigate to the to the "resources/game" folder inside your Double Dragon install. For WSL, the easiest way to do this is to open the folder in Windows explorer and type bash into the address bar. Install the required dependencies by running: sudo apt install nodejs zip wget Download the dotemu2mame.js conversion script by running: wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/cxx/81b9f45eb5b3cb87b4f3783ccdf8894f/raw/5b5e677d2d904071888fe7ea08a83c50ab9ba1cb/dotemu2mame.js Run the script using: node dotemu2mame.js . The converted games are saved as *.zip files inside the "resources/game" folder. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ They were ddragon.zip ddragon2.zip ddragon3.zip 1 and 3 run in the current MAME, 0.253. 2 does not; it seems to run okay in MAME 0.119 (from 2007; last one before they started doing 64-bit MAMEs). |
