the_maq, the issue with runahead is fixed now, thanks again for the report! :)

p.s. anything using k056832, k053250, k054338, and gx mixer (xexex, gijoe, mystwarr/metamorphic force/gaiapolis/moo mesa, bucky, asterix, dbz, early/mid-90s konami stuff) has a new state format, so don't load the old states or.. else!  If you're playing a game using states, finish it first before upgrading.

best regards,

The intro of Big Karnak (with the horses) sounds bad with low-path filter on.

Stifu, thanks, it's fixed now.  Also noticed that dips were wrong for lives and coin/credit, so fixed those as well.  After loading bigkarnk, go to dips / hit [defaults] then [ok] and reset to get the correct settings, or delete config/games/bigkarnk.ini before starting.

RunAhead bugs
Since this feature was added a few weeks back, behind the scenes I've been nonstop fixing drivers for runahead bugs.
state-wise the driver must be 100% perfect in order for runahead to work.  Common problems observed:
Game won't boot, or weird boot-up error
Game missing sprites or sound
Anything weird that fixes itself when you turn RunAhead off

If you run into one of these bugs, there's no need to take pictures and/or make a state file** - just post the rom name here!
** unless its later in the game, or something that is really hard to notice

I've fixed hundreds of games so far, but sure could use some help finding others that slipped past me! :)

best regards,

I tested the ROM (ssridersuda), it works correctly... are you sure to have the right ROMset and the latest FBN "WIP" version? Moreover, did you delete the related config (old) files in *FBN/config/games folder (ssridersuda.ini and ssridersuda.nv)?

the_maq,
do you have a current exe?  I fixed a bug that could cause that very problem a few days back.  try removing config/games/ssridersuda.nv after upgrading :)
If this is infact happening with the latest exe, try deleting the nv file and see if you can re-produce the problem, and let me know how if you can.

best regards,

Ok got a glitch. The YM2151 sounds for Nitro Ball have either gone missing or are being drowned out by PCM. Its very strange.

Thanks, I've cranked up the volume a bit on the ym2151, it's really hard to get this game balanced because there are so many things playing at once.

I think there could be a bug in Jackie Chan - The Kung-Fu Master (rev 3); there's a visible "tiling" effect in the background when the camera moves around, dividing the play area into visible squares. I cross-referenced it against MAME, but the effect didn't occur. I've included a screenshot and save stat; hope this helps  :smilie:

Hang On (Rev A)

The game doesn't go into free play mode even after selecting free play for both coin A and B (I tried restarting several times) :confused:

I think the freeplay on hangon never worked, the inputs/dips were probably just copied from outrun back in the day (in fbneo and mame) - sorry about that :(

Hi, apologies for the repost, but it appears that there is no activity on the 'dink's FBN Development & Fixes' thread.
Anyway, here is my bug report:

Great 1000 Miles Rally: Evolution Model!!! (gtmre)
[Lakka 3.4 / RetroArch 1.9.9 - FBNeo Core V1.0.0.03]

Vehicle select screen glitches car portraits for about a frame before displaying them correctly.
Initial frames when screen first loads also seem glitchy.
Small vehicle graphics also glitch when their colors automatically change.
