I haven't had the opportunity to check this out yet. Has the sound balance been fixed in Leo? I don't think he's added the SFX options yet, as it's still open on his GH.

I was wondering if you have had a chance to try Dream Soccer out yet. Meanwhile I have opened a New Issue on Github.

Thanks!

Very happy with the audio adjustments.

Is there any way to play the JP versions of these games now, or is this something that may be in the future? There's some pretty noticeable differences
in some of the games. In the Hunt has a later stage as stage 2 in the World version, R-Type Leo has no respawn points in the World version, and you just come back when you die (which isn't bad, but still), and Undercover Cops is missing some moves. There may be other differences in the other games, but I'm not an expert. Great core, though. Having a lot of fun with this one.

If you have more information please tell us about the differences in other games. You can find the JP versions in the _alternative folder.

Those are the only differences I know of, off the type of my head. Well, in R-Type Leo, in the World version, you have to press the bit button again to get them to go back to your ship. In the JP version, they just head on back without pressing a button.

I have not had the chance to play Dream Soccer, yet. I did check out some of the other games last night, though.

The wife and I dumped a bunch of virtual quarters into Hook a few nights ago and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Thank you so much wickerwaka, great job!!!

So, I have manually updated the files and all the video glitches in In The Hunt have gone. However, when I play Dream Soccer I can still see just a few of them. Occassionally roughly a quarter of the screen gets all black and when the ball gets out in the proximity of the other team goalkeeper the right part of the screen starts flickering. I will try to post a few pictures to show them.

No video glitches with the other games apart from the issues with Superior Soldiers mentioned a few posts above.

I seem to be having the same problem. In my case however, neither deleting the rbf and mra files and rerunning update_all or grabbing them straight from the GitHub page seem to fix it. Usually happens after a series of mines explode, resulting in a massive amount of garbage I. The screen and crazy slow down. I’m running the 0510 rbf. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Funny thing is that it seems to be running fine on one of my MiSTers, but not the other. The one it is not working on in paired with a MiSTerCade.

Interesting, I was not able to replicate your issue. In The Hunt seems to be working fine at least in my case. I will try again to see If I get the same problem as you.

This is what I get with Dream Soccer.

The Dream Soccer issue is known https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Arcade- ... /issues/10

The In The Hunt issue is unrelated to this. Are you sure that all extra M92 rbf files have been removed?

Can you provide a list of files that need to be removed? I deleted the following:

  • Iremm92 0510 .rbf from the _arcade/cores directory
  • Irem m92 associated game .mra files form the _arcade directory (gun force, ninja baseball Batman, in the hunt, etc)
  • Irem m92 associated alternative game .mra files from the _arcade/alternatives directory
  • Irem m92 associated rom .zip files from the games/MAME directory

Anything else I should look for? I did not look for any of the older .rbf files to see if they were present. It’s my understanding that the update_all script removes those when a newer version is detected. Thanks for all your efforts in making a great core! I really want to enjoy this as much as everyone else seems to be doing.

I just checked….the only irem .rbf files in the _Arcade/cores directory are as follows:

  • IremM62_20230226.rbf
  • IremM72_20230227.rbf
  • IremM92_20230510.rbf

I’m going to try to US version in alternatives and see if that behaves differently than the world version that plays by default.

I just made it through the second stage on the US version without any graphical issues or slowdown. This is certainly different behavior than what I saw when playing the world version which would show graphical problems and slowdown consistently in the first stage. Not sure why it is acting this way, but I’ll keep playing the US version and write back if I notice any other issues.

@wickerwaka,
Many thanks for the new updated core and for fixing the issue with The Dream Soccer! Much appreciated.

Wonderfull work ! Irem M92 is one of the best arcade system and the core is so good with CRT H/V adjustement and now cpu turbo.
I do have a problem though, i cannot start gunforce 2, the game doesn't start, i just have the self test ROM / RAM OK but upside down.

Ok it was just the dip switch that goes random for an unknown reason. I tried all title and everything is fine. What i would like to know though, is why the arcade organizer do not pick the first Gunforce and Undercover cops in the organize folder.
It's not the first time i have this issue, the first time it was my downloader.ini that wasn't set properly, and some rbf/rma weren't updated (jotego). After correcting the issue, everything get updated as it should and the arcade organizer pick the titles. I'm pretty sure my downloade.ini is set right now, as i have the arcade-iremm92 tag set in filter and the core was update properly, but still i have two title missing in the organize folder.

I haven't had a chance to try this out yet. Will I need to delete the old M92 files to stop getting graphical glitches in In the Hunt?

Also, thank for the core. It's a really great one.

Hi guys!

Can someone confirm that with the game Lethal Thunder (Thunder Blast) the score counter does not work it stays on zero

regards,

I haven't verified it, but I would not be surprised if it is broken because I found an issue in the M107 core that is similar. I will release updated cores in a few days.
