ed1475 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Mekaw is still saying that it is a bad dump and will not play. Does this rom work on other emulators? I'm using the AdamEm emulator with Windows Millenium Edition operating system and the rom works fine. I'm not sure how well AdamEm works though with XP or Vista.

Mister VCS Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 19,760 what's up with the "patch challenge"? To join the Activision "River Raiders Club" you have to score 25,000 points (see manual) - we could add 1 bonus point at the HSC if one member scores 25,000 or more!
