FireFox/Mach3 Patch
ErikRuud:
I am going to wait until I can get it working in the regular version of 0.79s before I try anything else.
So far it is not working. The game starts, I see the disk initialization screen, then the first frame of the video, and then it crashes.

I built the flac library seperately according to the directions on the website. But then I had to copy the .h .a .la files to the proper place in the MinGW directories.
Also the patch undoes some of the patches in NoNameMAME. Mostly for some of the new switch options.
By the way, the mach3.lsr is at a resolution that Daphne does not like.
TheGatesofBill:
If you get it working in the new No Name MAME, let me know and I'll try to include it. I took a look at it, but it'll take more time than I'd like to spend tright now.
Aceldamor:
Man...this is awsome. Keep up the extremely awsome work. ;D
ErikRuud:
Just for the halibut, I tried the frame.bin file that is supposed to be for FireFox and the game ran without crashing. Unfortunately the video was out of synch with the game ???
I'm waiting to see if I can get anymore help from Scott at Boldtower.
I should have time to convert and test the FireFox video tonight.
Lilwolf:
Out of sync? Is it really bad or a second or less off? Try it in Dalphne cvs version yet?
btw, I'm assuming that the videos aren't the same for both the mame version and the Daphne version? Can you convert between them?
I still haven't had a chance to test them out.. Still hoping for some newsgroup lovin...
