Here's how to play this game without any glitches

first, buy the cabinet with the game (don't give up now!!)

then get a coin

adjust the seat to your liking

@TheBloodEagle27 Actually the first step is to make sure you have room in your house to lug that huge beast of a machine around. :)

Second: buy the cabinet with the game (don't give up now!!)

Third: get a coin

insert it IN the machine (not ON the machine) :p (inserts three coins into machine since it's 75c to play.

adjust the seat to your liking (adjusts seat to find the right notch)

VOILA!

Or set the machine to free play mode.

What kind of computer knowledge does one needs to fix such a lag?

like, graphic engineering or something like that?

[skydragon8525]

Don't computers with the latest technology have the ability to play this game on MAME? A gaming system with an Intel Core i7-980X and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 should be able to play it.

[eVoluci0n]

@skydragon8525 that's not the issue. the game hasn't been emulated properly. there are major graphical glitches that have yet to be corrected. until this is fixed, not much can be done.

[Harvtarv]

Well, someone was patient enough to do a glitchy race like your race.

[eVoluci0n]

@Harvtarv I saw. It's near impossible to even play with horrible glitches and scenery blocking the players view. When pressing certain controls / buttons, the screen will zoom in / out. Totally not worth it.

[mistamontiel]

Man. I only knew about this on N64, such a shit cartridge.

I ran into Duffy's bar, and I saw this there, the arcade machine. Fucking gorgeus.

The rig was real neat, I didn't get to sit in it, not sure if it had a clutch, the gearbox was neat as shit tho man. Wished I played it.

[samsonite8881]

Where is your playthrough? I've been waiting a really long time. Where's the first part of it?

[Tiamat583]

is this game playable on mame? crusin usa and world are.

[eVoluci0n]

@Tiamat583 -_-

[Tiamat583]

@eVoluci0n

I guess not.

[FreestylePortLive]

in n64 version no have much cars =/

[Nelson9078]

How'd you get the LED at the bottom of the screen?

[PARANOiASurvivor290]

It's like a beta version of Cruis'n Exotica...

[eVoluci0n]

@PARANOiASurvivor290 - Uh, no. They don't push out betas with graphical issues lol

[PARANOiASurvivor290]

@eVoluci0n

No, man, not like todays multiplayer betas where the game is nearly complete. I mean old betas like Sonic 2. Still, in 5th/6th gen. games, there were betas with graphical glitches...

[kitsa42]

I thought this WAS playable on MAME. Interesting that it's not. Thanks, dude. :)

[pokemontrance]

If you cant play Exotica, can you try Off-Road Challenge ?

[eVoluci0n]

@pokemontrance - I could, but it suffers from the same fate as Cruis'n Exotica. The game works and runs well, but there are graphical issues that hinder game play. :-(

[speedy9199]

@eVoluci0n actually the only problem with Off-road challenge that I found was that the cars sometimes disappear.

[eVoluci0n]

@speedy9199 - yes, because there are video emulation problems. Graphics are an issue as well, with some being distorted or colored incorrectly

[speedy9199]

@eVoluci0n but it's nowhere as bad as crusin exotica.

[eVoluci0n]

@speedy9199 - no, it's not, but I refuse to play a game where I can't see my own car and where it's going, let alone others lol

[pokemontrance]

@eVoluci0n Oh man. That sucks.
