Crash & Burn still has the infinite demo loop bug in the latest version of the core. You can’t access the main game because it keeps rebooting at the demo.
I’m posting this issue here because the topic in the issue tracker was closed for some reason without the issue being fixed.
It was closed because it should be fixed. I addressed it by porting the hack flags from the last release of 4DO which is referenced at the bottom of the ticket.
If you’re saying that the hack setting isn’t working please reopen the ticket. Posting on the forum isn’t likely to get my attention.
Ok, thanks for the response. I will re-open the issue.
OK false alarm. The issue got fixed but you have to enable it in the core options and save it so it stays enabled after rebooting the game.
I had the same problem but was utterly confused by your instructions, so here is what he is talking about:
I’m not actually sure step 3 is necessary, but that’s what I did initially and it didn’t work, but I left it enabled.
This isn’t working for me. To clarify, it WAS working until this morning when I decided to move RetroArch to a different hard drive. Even after uninstalling RetroArch from the old drive and performing a clean install on the new drive, Crash n’ Burn still shows the Total Eclipse demo loop (which also happens to run too fast) even when I enable the “Timing Hack 1 (Crash n’ Burn)” option. This option always stays enabled (I even verified this within the retroarch-core-options.cfg file).
I’ve tried closing/reopening the game, closing/opening RetroArch, and even rebooting my Windows 10 PC, but nothing fixes the problem. I’ve also tried different BIOS files for the different 3DO models, but still no go.
FYI, the “Use per-game options if available” setting doesn’t appear under Menu -> Settings -> Configuation (even if you’ve enabled “Show Advanced Settings” under the User Interface option). The closest thing I found was called “Load Content-Specific Core Options Automatically” which was already enabled.
I’m at my wits end here… please help!
