Is Simpsons Bowling working?

Pages: (1/5) > >>

dema:

I was reading on the mame.net gamelist that Simpsons Bowling is now working, with the sound partially working. Has anyone tried playing it to see how well it works, and does anyone happen to know the minimum PC requirement to run it?

sofakng:

I saw that too, but my copy of The Simpson's Bowling displays an error during the ROM check.  (not MAME's file audit, but after the game loads it does a check...)

It says something is "BAD" and then says to consult the manual :(

Thats a bit strange though, because MAME says my .CHD file is perfectly fine (it loads it fine).

Hold down "F2" during startup to initialize the EEPROM.

Interstingly enough this works and you only have to do it once and you have to hold F2 down through the whole startup routine.  How did you know that this needed to be done?

You don't read the mame.net forums, do you?
