Message displayed on Jurassic Park during T-Rex testing


The adjacent message is displayed on the DMD after successful boot up, and while the T-Rex is being tested. During this time period, the T-Rex tests cannot be bypassed. The only other things that can be done are entering diagnostics or adjustments and settings. Unfortunately due to the duration of the T-Rex test, this can hamper troubleshooting if the game needs to be turned on / off multiple times.

2 Game-Specific Issues

  1. The T-Rex head moves more slowly when turning left than it does when turning right. This is normal and was placed into the most recent ROM to reduce wear and tear on the motor that drives the head.
