@@d4nin3u I was just thinking this morning also to start doing some tuto, I actually prepare some visuals to cover the fundamentals of TGM timings and the skillstops. We should see in the coming future a significant arrival of new players who will quickly discover that they can't achieve nothing serious from a PS4 or Switch controller.
For TGM and TAP, is shmupmametgm still the way to go? Recent versions of mame play TAP at the correct framerate for instance, but I wonder about input lag and such.
That's news to me so I can't really tell you. The main reason shmupmametgm was/is popular was the extra frame of input lag saved so that'd be my main criterion. I did not follow recent MAME releases and just used shmupmametgm out of habit I guess.
Thx, this worked for me. However I don't get how to properly play TGM3, when I want to make a new player account it asks me for a password, what does that mean?
It wants a 6 button press sequence as a "password" to protect your account. E.g. "CBACBA". You can use buttons ABCD (ABC being the rotations buttons and D being hold). In your case it doesn't have to be complex, just don't forget it ^^. I probably didn't emphasise it enough in this video (and I might need to remake it/take it down due to Arika threatening legal actions), but TGM is an arcade game played on an arcade machine, publicly available to everyone. If there wasn't a password, everybody could login as you and ruin your qualified Master rank for example. (Fun fact: you can have different accounts with the same name as long as they have different passwords).
I used type x config for a while before I was made aware of alt input. Is there any way to use a joystick with alt input without using key remapping software as this only allows for four directions of input. I tried to configure it based on the setup that was already there but that didn't work.
Whenever I launch tgm3, the game is at a really high fps. Any methods of making the game cap at 60 fps? I found somewhere that you could use a fps limiter, but its not working.
Flow are you using an Intel graphics card? For some reason they tend to do that (not all of them, I was in luck with my previous PC) and unfortunately I don't know a fix...
I'm getting a Launch Game.bat instead of a tgm_launcher.exe for my game install. My keybindings also don't work, in fact, none work except for the insert coin button. What do?
did you download altinput.zip? That contains the tgm_launcher.exe. You could run typex_config to configure key bindings for what you have right now, but that has worse input lag so use altinput if you can
@@d4nin3u TGM 3 was ran on the Taito Type X arcade system, which actually was a embedded Windows XP, and there are other games that also ran on the TTX, and has a similar trick: Street Fighter 4 (2008) Blazblue (2008) King of Fighters XII and XIII (2009-2010) Battle Fantasia (2007) King of Fighters 98 Ultimate Match (2008) Giga Wing Generations (2004) Power Instinct 5 (also known as Goketsuji Ichizoku Matsuri Senzo Kuyou)(2009) Otomedius (ran on the Konami PC Based)(2007) Silent Hill: The Arcade (ran on the Konami PC Based)(2007) Arcana Heart 2 (ran on the Examu EX-BOARD)(2008) Daemon Bride (ran on the Examu EX-BOARD)(2009) Arcana Heart 3 (ran on Examu EX-BOARD)(2009) and finally Chaos Breaker (2004) Note that Examu EX-BOARD, and Konami PC Based are also made to be Windows XP embedded. And even loaders like Arcade PC Loader and Teknoparrot have the ability to run them perfectly. I even have TGM 3, and it runs gorgeous, in fact I got all of these games I mentioned here, which are the same results. What do you think of all of this, with the fun facts, and the list?
If your PC is not very performant unfortunately yes. I can point you to ZinC though which might be suitet better for your PC if you want to give that a try.
yehhew bod Nope. Most likely the sign of your PC not being able to keep up. While you are in game press F11; this should bring up a x% counter in the upper right corner. If it says 100% you're good. If it says anything lower while playing, Mame is lagging behind and hence weird stuff happens.
i got tgm 1 and 2 working just fine using shmupmametgm, but when trying to run tgm3 launcher it will show up as a black screen for a little bit before crashing, i tried running as admin and running in xp compatibility mode but it doesn't help much at all. Is there any solution to this or do i just have like a bad copy?
you probably don't need this anymore, but going to send the solution here anyways, maybe for other people with the same problem. The solution is fairly simple: you're probably using laptop and on almost every laptop there's integrated graphics card and dedicated one. If you're getting black screen and the game crashes right away, the chance is that your laptop uses integrated graphics as a default GPU, therefore the game doesn't like it, and crashes. To fix it you should go to Control Panel of your dedicated GPU (to look up what your GPU is you can go to device manager) and change the settings so the game uses dedicated GPU (look up how to do it in google, since it depends on if your card is by AMD or NVIDIA). Same applies to desktop PCs with CPUs that have integrated graphics. There's a chance that you won't have a dedicated graphics (in that case you're probably using desktop PC and your only way is just to go and buy one), but that's what helped me (there might be other problems than that).
I've seen them on coolrom. use the "alternate download link with ads " that will bring up a page with the rom download. If you use the first download link you see it may try to download an exe file.
Yup. And that's why I'll have to take it down by the end of this year :P. Enjoy while it lasts I guess. (I have to admit though: I'm amazed that this video survived until today.)
@ValveGMD I set it to private when the ban wave was announced to come, but it turned out relatively harmless and after a while I decided that probably nothing is going to happen. Which thankfully was true
Due to copyright and similar legal stuff I don't want to provide a link for the file. If you google appropriately you should be able to get it *somewhere*.

Thanks for this, I had TGM3 Already but didnt know about the 2 Plus add on, this helped!
Thanks to you, now I got addicted to the Tetris TGM games.
Thanks, man. Texmaster is good to training the ARS.
awesome guide. Thank you so much.

"fuck_this_game false"
Hahaha! That was great. Thanks for the tutorial! I've been wanting to try this specific tetris for a while :D
tgm3 runs great if you disable vsync and use a frame limiting software like bbswin or rivatuner ss, almost no input lag
on TGM it says "Illegal boolean value for sound; reverting to 0.", how do i fix it?
Is there a way to set player 2's controllers to keys on TGM3's alt input?
I am noticing this now: 12000 views ? from 62 subs ? The efficiency of tutorial in general is incredible.

can you use a controller with the TGM 3 method?
How can I set up joystick with tgm3?
darn i cant find Termino Velocity anywhere and the link in desc is no longer working
tgm3 works great if you disable vsync then use bbsreader to limit the game to 60 fps, almost no input lag
Please emphasize? I'm interested
Great

You can reduce the Monitor's refresh rate to 60 or play the game in full screen

I don't, but since it's an XBOX 360 game you might find something in that direction.
Use the Xenia XBOX 360 emulator.
