[exzisus] Game Bug or Mame bug?
#242485 - 01/03/11 12:51 AM


- Insert coin(s)
- Hold UP+LEFT
- Press Start
- The main (walking) sprite appears at the bottom-right corner.

Other combinations:

UP+RIGHT --> Sprite at the Bottom-Left
DOWN+LEFT --> Sprite at the Upper-Right
DOWN+RIGHT --> Sprite at the Upper-Left

This happens only in the main set (not exzisusa).
Tried on mame32 (command line) and also mameui32.

The fact that this only effects one set and that both sets share the same initialization/machine configurations and really only differ in actual rom code - it's likely an original bug that isn't an emulation bug. The conversion set (exzisusa) likely contains a fix for that oddness.

Stupid question: maybe that revision had a 4-way or a restrictor plate or something?

@Stiletto:
I think Tafoid is right. I also think it's a code rom patch.
I suppose that if exzisusa had a 4-way joystick, you could not move in diagonal direction during 'in game'.

Good point, hadn't thought it through...
