Hello, I haven't noticed a topic about this, so here it is. I have Galaxy Fight for the Saturn and have played it on FBA-XXX/Pro, though it has been a while since I've played it on FBA. I recently tried it out using Mameox128 Plus v. 20060505, but it seems like the graphics are distorted/flickering (for lack of a better term). I think the problem is due to the transparency effects as well as from the foreground scrolling and other such effects. Example 1 - Musafar's stage - The rain seems to cause the characters to flicker excessively. Example 2 - Alvan's stage - the scrolling/swirling grey mist along with the constant lightning flashes also seem to cause the characters to flicker excessively. I tried out these same stages on the Saturn version just before posting this, with no such issues found; I do not remember seeing it when using FBA in the past either. Is there a particular setting in Mame that I should use while playing this game in particular? I don't seem to notice any problems like this in other games, though I'm not saying they don't exist. However, I don't know many other games that have both foreground scrolling as well as transparency effects, so perhaps that's the issue? Again, this seems unique to the Mame version, so I'm just wondering if it can be resolved through changing the settings or if it'll just be something that'll have to wait for an update down the road. Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks for checking it out, HK$! I hadn't tried that game out on previous versions of Mame, so I had no idea it was an older bug. Thank you as well, BritneysPAIRS. I'll look into that next time I load it up. I appreciate the dedication and thoroughness you all share in regards to making Mameox the best it can be! Let me know if you guys need anything tested out anytime!

Thank you, Prican. It looks like I have some updating to do! So, if I'm not mistaken, the 'other' games use the.84 set. Only the CPS 1/2 use.98. Aside from the txt file about the Neo Geo games, is there any information as to which set we need? My set is basically compatible with +T+'s Pro set from a few versions back. However, this latest Mameox128 doesn't like several of my newer Neo roms and a few of my older ones (such as Ninja Combat). Hopefully a dat for the Neo games will be available, since comparing my sets to a txt file is a bit time consuming. Keep up the great work!

Hey all, Just wanted to say that this release of Mame is excellent! Thanks for all the hard work, as it is much appreciated. Mame looks to be close to the best it's going to get on XBox, so the removal of screen tearing is great! I was wondering if anyone has been able to create a.dat file for use in RomCenter? I flipped back a few pages and saw the neo geo txt file, but I just thought I'd ask since RomCenter is a bit easier to read. Several of my CPS and Neo games that worked in Mamedox 1.1 either no longer work on this release (different and/or missing files) or they work despite having different CRCs. Additionally, I noticed that the performance of some games isn't what I recall in the past. An example is Darkstalkers. Felicia's icon in the character select screen flickers the whole time and the gameplay is quite choppy, neither of which did I notice in previous releases. Please note that I'm using the Euro set, which seems to check out ok while loading. I have the aspect ratio 'disabled' and Vsync 'enabled'. I haven't had time to check other games, so this is very preliminary. Thanks again for everything!
