Sadly Punch-Out !! have some GFX glitches since it was added in FBA 0.2.97.30 :



According to MAME, it seems Punch-Out!! has a different GFX loading routine than Punch-Out!! (Japan)

[JacKc]

Punch-Out !! Fixed

Nice work! (I meant to say that when you added the fix to the svn)

[JacKc]

Thanks iq_132

Fix will be commit soon to SVN but before trying to add punchouta and spnchouta clones to the driver

EDIT : Fix submitted to SVN with Punch-Out!! (Rev A) and Super Punch-Out!! (Rev A) added !!!

Battle Shark (World) (bshark) - game freeze after stage 2.
Dragonball Z (rev B) (dbz)- game freeze
Testing on 64 bit version of FBA

Battle Shark (World) (bshark) - game freeze after stage 2.
Dragonball Z (rev B) (dbz)- game freeze
Testing on 64 bit version of FBA

Would you be able to give me save states for these (before the freezes happen?)

[Arcadez]

Would you be able to give me save states for these (before the freezes happen?)

Battle Sharks guaranteed to stall during the mission screen right after level 1 which is quite short i can do ya a savestate
if you want though

[Arcadez]

Battle Shark save on the mission screen it should freeze shortly afterwards

[dink]

gamez fan, bad news re: that savestate, check your pm!

[dink]

Hmm, something has gone horribly wrong with Battle Shark, its locking up now before the game even starts.  weird, eh?
When I say lock up, I mean, the screen freezes or goes blank, and in the debug window, the cpu#1 spazzes out with "68K #1 Read byte => F00000" and it counts upwards.

Any ideas, guys?
EDIT: things are looking good - I got it to stop hanging!

FBA 64 BIT version has bad, muffled sound compared to 32 bit - all games. 

[dink]

EDIT: nevermind, see note below!

Avengers (us set 1/parent) in d_lwings.cpp:
Right after beating the last boss, the congratulatory screen is kinda scrambled with the wrong image in FBA.  I found a longplay video (by M.Janet) played in MAME, and the screen is OK.  Need a little help with this one
p.s. after the savestate loads, wait for 2 screens to see what I mean.

From the MAME source:

Code: [Select]

Notes:

  avengers061gre2: corrupted graphics in Avengers' ending not fixed.
  This bug is not in the Japanese set "Buraiken".
  It might just be a bug in the original: the tiles for the character
  image are just not present in the US version, replaced by more tiles
  for the title animation. The tile map ROM is the same between the two
  versions.
EDIT2: more proof there's nothing wrong, here's a screencap of Buraiken's (Japanese Avengers) ending...

well lets see,

Art of Fighting 2
Football Frenzy

are 2 games I noticed it in , it seems to happen at random in the emulator.

In AOF 2 it was when YOU WON or YOU LOST appeared on the screen and with the high pitched TING noise, the noise was crackly.

In Football Frenzy it happened when you were picking out a play.

This happened a few times before with other neogeo games with high pitched noises , cant seem to make it happen at will .

Sorry dink, I'm very bad at describing things well

Edit: I THINK I found the problem.........4 point 3rd order FM interpolation was on.........

I finally found the solution to this problem, sorry for taking so long!!  Technical info: it didn't check for clipping in the first stage of the PSG mixing with interpolation on.
