Now that the VMK Triple Play (http://www.vmkforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1449) contest is over, I'm ready to announce a new contest: the VMK DoubleDown! This contest is simpler than the first contest and won't take as much time to participate (less than three minutes total!), so I hope even more of you give it a shot. Here's how it will work:

Add your best score from Level 1, Stage 1 of Castle Fireworks and the first screen of the Jungle Cruise to get your total score. The winner is the person with the highest total at the end of the contest.

I will update the high scores table daily. Unlike the VMK Triple Play contest, go ahead and post your best scores directly to this thread. If your scores improve, please EDIT your original post rather than making duplicate posts. Also, please list your best scores for Fireworks and Jungle Cruise separately since I'd like to add each to the high score table this time.

Also, for verification purposes, please take a screenshot of each of your best scores. For Caste Fireworks, the appropriate screenshot is the loading screen for Level 1 Stage 2 which shows your total from the first stage (and confirms that the second stage hasn't started yet). For Jungle Cruise, the appropriate screenshot will show you anywhere on the first screen (the gas counter confirms that this is your first pass through the cruise). Here are two sample screenshots:

Have fun, and good luck! This contest will run through next Wednesday, 7/13/05.

Here are the current high scores:

I just took a quick pass to see how quickly I could complete this contest; seriously, it only took about 2-3 minutes! I think that's the fun part...easy to enter, but difficult to master.

Here are my latest scores:

Fireworks Level 1, Stage 1: 12,915

Jungle Cruise, First Screen: 7,642

Total: 20,577

Now that I got paint back I guess I can do screenshots again! This will be a little more challenging i think then the last. Do we post scores here or on another thread?

Genie-

I'm assuming that when you're refering to the first screen of the Junge Cruise you don't want players to go into reverse...

Genie-

I'm assuming that when you're refering to the first screen of the Junge Cruise you don't want players to go into reverse...LOL, I hadn't thought of that...I just tested this out though, and there's no way to go to the sixth screen from the first screen, and no way to go back to the first screen from the second screen so it shouldn't be a problem.

Yea after seeing that Score, its fake because not even all Perfects get you that score. and the 4 needs a little more edit.

Looking at it again the first and last 9's look fake along with 4.

NOTE: This is a fake, and not real for people who may think this score was possible. I have the highest scores on fireworks, and have not perfected first scene first stage, but have come extremely close.

How do you take a screen in VMK? I know how to take pics with the ingame camera but how do you get pics of the whole screen?

WDWTigger72
07-09-2005, 07:35 PM
Clicking on ALT + PRINT SCREEN will take picture of active window. I would recommend this thread on vmk forums which explains more Screen Shot Taking / Posting (http://www.vmkforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=442) Just an fyi, They state to click on ALT + CTRL + PRINT SCREEN...This is not necessary...Only ALT + PRINT SCREEN to take snap shot of current active window...

You have to put into a program like Paint. There is a thread on here somewhere about how to do that FYI.

OT: HOLY COW! Your signature is way to big! (Don't take the first part offensivly.)

Back on: Press and hold ALT and then press Print Scrn, then press paste on a paint program.

I hate what they did to the Jungle Cruise Game it used to be my favorite game on VMK now it is my least favorite. I hope they change it back to the old version.
