A vectorised version of Donkey Kong for MAME. A hack of the original arcade game which suppresses the normal video output completely and renders high resolution vectors to the screen instead of pixels. The techniques used could be applied to other classic arcade games.
The plugin makes use of the drawing capabilities of LUA scripting language (available in MAME from version 0.196 to current).
Tested with MAME version 0.241
Compatible with all MAME versions from 0.196
The Plugin is installed by copying the "vectorkong" folder into your MAME plugins folder.
The Plugin is run by adding -plugin vectorkong to your MAME arguments. I also recommend that you use opengl video e.g.
mame dkong -plugin vectorkong -video opengl
or you can enable the plugin in your MAME configuration.
