Unlike console emulation, TeknoParrot doesn't emulate the CPU or GPU. Instead, it translates arcade I/O calls (coin inputs, lightgun aiming, force feedback) to standard Windows inputs. This means performance is near-native, provided you have a decent PC.
Q: Can I save my progress in Tomb Raider on Teknoparrot? A: Yes, you can save your progress in Tomb Raider on Teknoparrot using the game's built-in save feature or by using the emulator's save state feature.
| Issue | Likely Fix | |--------|-------------| | Game crashes on launch | Run TeknoParrot as Admin. Disable antivirus temporarily. | | Black screen but audio works | Switch renderer to or D3D11 in game’s settings. | | Mouse not aiming correctly | Enable “Relative Input” or “Raw Input” in controller settings. | | “Missing DLL” error | Install VC++ Redistributables (2015-2022) and DirectX runtime. | | No crosshair | The arcade game has no on-screen crosshair by design (real lightgun). Use a monitor overlay or enable software cursor. |
