Added save protection, now it's 100% safe.

Never really liked DK...but stfN1337 did a nice job with one more set on 7800!
Yakurena 24 Apr 2019 02:10
There's a problem with "Third L Round", it doesn't unlock when completing L3 ... On the other hand, the "Deathless" cheevos unlock even if I died during the concerned level ...
stfN1337 24 Apr 2019 07:13
Which emulator and which ROM?
Yakurena 25 Apr 2019 01:21
I tried with RALibretro and the cheevo didn't still unlock ...
Yakurena 25 Apr 2019 02:07
The ROM checksum : 19f1ee292a23636bd57d408b62de79c7
stfN1337 25 Apr 2019 17:42
Fixed.
Yakurena 25 Apr 2019 20:53
Always not :-/ I tried again with the 2 emulators, without result ... I begin to despair ...
stfN1337 25 Apr 2019 23:02
Fixed again. I forget to change code behind C (for L3 round) instead of D (for Stage ID). It was spelled mistake. It works this time.

Did not work for me. Achievements show in config options, but do not unlock.

@richiewrong: Which ROM and which emulator?
shroome 5 Sep 2019 17:15
I am using RetroArch - ProSystem core works great here. Thanks for the set

What happens to deathless achievements?
stfN1337 22 Feb 2021 12:08
Demoted deathless achievements because I can't fix them. I'm sorry. :(

Mario just doesn't move the way I direct him to in this one. It's surprising but he moved better in the 2600 version. I'll be pressing up, and he'll just be still on a ladder and a barrel will inevitably hit me lol

This wasn't the worst Donkey Kong port, but it wasn't the best either. I have no idea how the barrels work in this one, and the spring in the second level is just pain.
