No problem.

 

I was reading that on the history dat file of MAME, where the creators of Strider went to Mitchell and created the game. Interesting stuff.

 

We are just giving ideas and examples of things that are fixed and available, but in the end it's not in our hands if it will be possible to make them playable on CoinOps, but let's hope so.

 

Added some more games, and add to put only 1 screenshot now per game since i was at the limit of images per post

 

Another thing i noticed is that many drivers had some major clean ups, where you only had a bootleg version of a game playable before with stolen sound and music from other games, and now the 'original' versions are finally playable. Not sure if it's worth the effort, but i could add that later at the end of the topic.

Yeah, and Boogie Wings too, besides all the others.

 

Added some Sega and Data East games, and more Raiden sequels to the topic, deleted some. Still a long way to go.

 

In the end, we should have a nice list of stuff that are now playable on MAME PC and could be ported/fixed to CoinOPS depending of the work needed for every driver. I bet some are more simple or complicated than others.

looking at the sega games you added i would reckon it wouldnt be a case of just adding the driver,mame on xbox would need a whole core update as turbo outrun,super monaco gp....are all fd encrypted games which i think it was the mame0.88 before they were all fully emulated.

concerning the raiden fighters games hk$(mameox128)originally put the driver into mameox to get raiden fighters2(2000)working and that game is on cheaper hardware than the original sebuisp1 arcade board.

raiden fighters jet does load in mameox128 and you get the title screen and it runs in attract mode but as soon as you hit the start button it crashes.

concerning the fd encrypted games(turbo outrun...)nes6502(zsnexbox porter)is working on a new version of fba,called fba legends.which is basically going to be 2 fbas in one.it will have the original final burn which plays the sega games like powerdrift,afterburner,galaxy force...and there is also going to be a port of a newer version of fba which will play all the fd encrypted games.

Nice to hear about the FBA version and i like the name.

 

Regarding Sega games and the others, that's why i'm trying to put all the mame logs that tell in wich version of MAME PC were they fixed and made playable (between version 0.89 and 0.95) and i have no idea as usual of the work involved to porting the drivers and code to the Xbox and CoinOPS. Maybe those versions of FBA will help on that?

 

The Raiden Fighters games were fixed later on MAME PC (0.93), so maybe that's the reason they didn't worked before on the xbox, or could be too much for the console to handle who knows.

 

In the end, they are all sugestions, building an utopic library and idea where we can play most games on CoinOPS without the need to change between different emulators.

 

I really need to check FBA after going through the rest of the mame drivers.

MIDWAY DRIVERS OFCOURSE!!! lol so we can FINALLY enjoy ALL the MK games with sound and perfect frame rate!

Osman (1996 Mitchell) - Never played it looks badass.

[Gilou9999]

I was thinking about

 

US Championship VBall, one of the best beach volley ball game EVAR! (super spike v ball on nes is an adaptation, BAKOOM!), unfortunatelly it's laggy on ignite, i don't know if there is a xbox mame version that emulates it well

Playing beach volley with Schwarzy is really cool

Weird, i remember playing it well before, not on CoinOps mind. I really love that game also, it was at the same arcade near home where was Thunder Hoop and others.

 

EDIT: Deleted the Raiden games on the first post, since all those games had issues that i didn't like even if they were playable, like missing sound fx and waiting 9 minutes for some games to start.

Tight game here, Buggy Boy AKA Speed Buggy (1985) lately fully emulated since 0.130
