Not in frame rate, but in game play... new [Re: Traso]

At the level selection screen it scrolls slower.

And then during game play, the bugs are slower.

I'll see if I can come up with some vid of older MAME to show.

Played for 10 minutes doing about 15 waves and emulation always stayed at 100%

The game doesn't do things at the same pace.

Is it possible you're remembering way way back before discrete sound was added?

Surely it costs some resources to do that.

[EDIT] Also, when I said "way way back" I didn't expect for you to be talking about 0.104 if I heard you in the video correctly.

This also factors into things I would think.

Clipping hardware in bzone and others is emulated instead of hardcoded. Improved accuracy of clocks and various other bits of cleanup. Changed M6502 CPU and the 2x POKEYs sound clock speeds to 1512000 Hz. Added prom ($0 - AVG PROM).

Right, I should be asking game owners.
