Request: MAME drivers with timers preventing savestate

In this thread, please report MAME drivers that always display the message "Unable to save due to pending anonymous timers" when you attempt to save.
Already known about:
cave.c - all games
segaorun.c - all games
segas16b.c - all games
segaxbd.c - all games

boxer.c
capbowl.c
cball.c
destroyr.c
fgoal.c
flyball.c
fuukifg2.c
fuukifg3.c
were the drivers which I added state class to (actually, state struct at time  ), saving all the variable, but that were unable to have save states due to anonymous timers
I only worked through drivers starting with 'K' (and a few 'L'), and I had to skip a few drivers due to components in need to be device-fied before save states were possible (e.g. cave dependence on nmk112), so I don't have a full list unfortunately

run mame with -log and then the error.log will be created in the same folder as MAME

Is bug 4107 related to this? If so, you can add aristmk4.c to the list...
Code:
Error: Unable to write save state due to a disk write error. Verify there is enough disk space.
It doesn't matter if you have 1.5 terabytes of disk space left, the same error is given.

it's not related. bug 4107 was simply due to the nvram array not being allocated, so that MAME was trying to save an infinitely large array. fixed.
btw, I'm not even sure that such array needs to be saved now that the driver uses common NVRAM, but I don't think it is worth any clean up since there is no real save state support in the driver...

> Is there a place to find the error.log? Anyway, shdancer. Driver source is segas18.c
segas18.c was the same problem as the other sega drivers (video/segaic16.c) I've submitted a patch for that, as well as for cave.c.
