Drivers sugestions and related fixs for CoinOPS ReIGNITE

[Enkak]

As the topic description says, this is an ongoing progress, since i'm going through all the drivers currently supported on MAME PC. I'm on 0.129, will download 0.130 later, that seems to have even more fixs as usual.

 

For the moment i'm interested in fixs for some of the examples here, and adding new 2D games not currently supported on CoinOPS. I'm not particulary interested in 3D games on MAME, but feel free to sugest them and i will add them to the topic. The more people helping the better, so those fixs needed for other drivers and games like Midway, Namco and so on, let the developers know those problems too, and possible fixs.

 

With luck, BritneysPAIRS has some material here to check when he returns.

 

If this isn't the best way to do this, let me know.

[Cospefogo]

I second the Double Dragon 1 and Double Dragon 2 driver fix!

 

I do run the games in CoinOPS, MameoX 128, Mameox 0.72 and MameX B6 - and for sure - MameX B6 is the perfect one for both games. They run very smooth and the only slowdown is the original slowdown present on the REAL HARDWARE (when you have more than 3 enemies at same time on the screen).

 

Cospefogo.

[Enkak]

Yeah, it's weird that i was testing those games today on MAME PC and they seem slow, at least from what i remember de original hardware and older versions of MAME too, both on PC and Xbox.

 

And i still have to check those sound 'bugs' on some older sega system drivers, among others. But at least those games like Shinobi, Golden Axe 1 and so on, seem very playable.

[XtecuterX73]

I hope BP still has the spreadsheets that i put stuff on for him. There are some really great games that could be added with hopefully minor work and changes.

 

I'll get to gathering some info and do what i can to help put input into this thread.

 

HF-

[Enkak]

That would be cool.

 

Since i came back only some weeks ago, i've no idea of what were in that spreadsheet and other stuff. There's lots of cool games that are now playable. The thing is that i don't know how much work will be adding or fixing the drivers.

 

But at least we can give these sugestions, and it's always cool to see the pictures. I love these colours that are so typical of arcade games.

[mirsad]

"Spiderman"

Which is based on the sega system 32 driver has some problems aswell, such as transparant backgrounds overlaps and shadow problems. Play through the first level on coinops and you will see.

There seems to be a problem with "World Heroes" games, from the first game to "World Heroes 2 jet"

 

When I play "World Heroes" the game is running at about 30-34 frames per second, and lags, world heroes 2 and jet seems to be the same, but "World Heroes Perfect" works fine because it must be a diffferent driver.

A+ research and presentation, Enkak. There's something to like for just about everyone on that list.

Thx.

 

When i finish to check the rest of the drivers i will post more examples here if any grabs my attention of course concerning games that weren't playable before.

 

I decided to do make these with screenshots because it's easier to identify the games, and because i really love the look of them.

 

mirsad, regarding the World Heroes series, that's weird. They are all SNK Neo-Geo MVS hardware, and run on the neo geo driver i think, but since they are 'always' changing stuff on that driver on MAME PC, maybe something broke on those games? Or maybe it's the xbox ram, but even that it's weird, since World Heroes Perfect should be a more demanding game.
