Voodoo Nightmare incompatibility

Official Ninja · 25-07-2025, 02:29:36

Hello!
It has been discovered that Voodoo Nightmare will not take joystick input on USA version of TOS1.04.
Any chance this can be fixed?
Thank you!

I just checked - it has regional protection. And I don't see US version at atarimania, only UK .
Will make fixed v. this days, but it will work at 50 Hz refresh rate only .

50Hz solves the problem. Forcing that in the launcher will work.
Much appreciated.

I just tried it out. It still has the problem. I have to run a program to set 50hz before launching the game for it to take joystick input.

Thanks!

It worked well in Steem with US TOS 1.04 .
I made different fix - now no need to set 50 Hz refresh rate, I corrected game's refresh rate test in it's code.
And it works good at 60 Hz refresh rate too, as I see . So, DL it again at same place.
File VNLA in subdir FILES is now 56006 bytes .

Maybe a problem with download link? VNLA is 56130

Also, I've since switched to my STe with USA TOS1.62
I can test on both if needed.

Of course I checked it after upload. It seems that somewhere that file is cached and it is not updated, so you still DL old version. Or some other problem.
