The Key of Avalon 2.5: War of the Key

Emulation Information

Triforce

Triforce Support was added in 2512-395. Builds older than this will not work.

Client/Server Networking

The Key of Avalon games use a client/server system with up to four clients connected to a single server. All of this works in 2512-395 or newer. By default, The Key of Avalon instances running in Dolphin will attempt to search for the server on the same computer. This can be edited by modifying IP Address Redirects in the Triforce tab of the configuration menu.

Avalon Deck Reader

The Key of Avalon games use a deck reader in order to load a player's cards. As of 2603-100 support for creating a deck of cards has been added.

In the Triforce folder, tricard_GAMEID_deck.json can be edited to tell the game which cards are loaded in the deck reader

{
  "cards": [
    {
      "index": 12
    },
    {
      "table": 1,
      "index": 13
    },
    {
      "index": 18,
      "quantity": 3
    }
  ]
}

Up to 30 cards can be loaded at once. Not all table and index values are valid. By default table 0 is used as it is the most populated table used by The Key of Avalon games. Some valid cards in earlier games are disabled in later revisions.

Problems

Prize Cards

When playing the game, it is possible to earn certain prize cards. Currently there is no way to claim these cards. The prize card count can be cleared in the Segaboot menu to remove the message at the top of the screen.

Missing Touchscreen Input Controls

The Key of Avalon games use a touchscreen for controls. Fixed by 2603-37. Touchscreen controls can be configured to the right stick in the controller configuration. Touches are mapped to the Right Trigger.

Broken IC Card Support

This game uses IC cards for saving data. Fixed by 2603-100. IC Cards can be found in the Triforce folder within the user data as tricard_GAMEID_slot1.bin and tricard_GAMEID_slot2.bin.
