Gyruss and Time Pilot, the way they were meant to be played

speaking of misfitMAME - what is the release schedule like on that project? The website I found (misfitmame.mameworld.net) shows a release about every 6 months (at best). Is that the norm for updates?

I don't think it's predictable. Robbbert at Mameworld/MESS forums handles this, and I think he's much more involved in MESS. He did manage to get the DK foundry edition in, though.

Understood. Thanks for the reply!

Figured out this problem, thanks to Tafoid: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=91023.msg957371#msg957371
Pre-107 MAME needs a different flavor of artwork file for the bezel to work. I found pre-107 Asteroids, Gyruss, & Time Pilot here:
http://mirrors.xmission.com/mame/artwork/
http://www.hellspark.com/dm/mame/software/mame/artwork/?C=N;O=D
Still looking for pre-107 artwork for Galaga (and Phoenix, though that's unrelated to this discussion).
Interestingly, I already had pre-107 artwork for Galaxian & Time Pilot, but not the post-107 artwork for those 2--gotta find those 2 now...
Long story short: looking for pre-107 Galaga & Phoenix, and looking for post-107 Time Pilot (which, oddly, isn't on http://mrdo.mameworld.info/mame_artwork_ingame.html?p=13#here ... is the bezel no longer supported since 107?).
Thanks,
-Jason

No bezels are displaying for these games, even though they have a bezel file in the "artwork" folder in the spinner mame directory & the .ini file for spinner MAME has use_bezels 1. I also copied all the non-zipped files in the artwork directory, thinking that those might be necessary masks or something, but no luck.
Any idea how to get my bezels back for the spinner MAME?
Also annoying is that 2 of these 5 games that run on my "normal" MAME no longer show their bezels when I launch them: Galaxian & Time Pilot. What would cause the bezels to no longer show in MAME115?

Cool hack, but I prefer the original controls. Now if only I had a stick that would properly play Time Pilot and sinistar though...

Agreed--that's why I have *both* the originals & the hacks on my cabinet! :D
