Macross PCB, Different Version's?

(1/4) > >>

Falken Hawke:
As I was burning in the replacement RAM on my board, I was watching Del's Arcade YouTube video featuring Yotsuya's Macross cabinet.


I noticed that his attract mode is different from mine. At first I thought it was a DIP switch setting but the only setting is for demo sound which made no difference on or off.

I would like to ask anyone else who has this title if your attract mode matches Yotsuya's.

I just got curious when I saw the difference so would like to see where the rabbit hole leads 😁

TIA

How is yours different?

After the Macross title screen, my board switches to one of two cinematic cut scenes before displaying the high scores.

I saw one of the cut scenes showing in the picture you posted for your completed project posting so it does show up.  I'm really curious about why they didn't in the video.

Have you tried setting the dipswitches to free play like Yotsuya's cab in the video?

Free play doesn't skip the cut scenes in MAME v0.152 or v0.238, but it might do it on original hardware.

- If free play skips cut scenes on your PCB, that could indicate a minor error in the emulation. (Nothing currently reported on MAME Testers.)

- If free play does not skip cut scenes on your PCB, it appears that Yotsuya has a PCB/ROM variant/bootleg not currently preserved in MAME.

Falken Hawke:
Already done, findings have not changed.

I also filled the top 10 high scores with no change so I'm wondering if the game was played to the end when the video was taken.  After all, if it's running in Zapcon, someone probably played it through.

For me, checking that will have to wait.  I don't have the skill to play through the game quickly and I have other things to complete as well.
