Alien vs Predator, Captain America/Avengers and Mystic Warriors have in common?
Javy3:
They are games that supposedly allow 3 or more players to play simultaneously but I have yet to find a rom that allows it. I have downloaded a variety of Mystic Warriors and Captain America/Avengers and have only been able to play 2 players sim. at most. Is there some step or BIOS I am missing or did they just not get translated to MAME?
Malenko:
make sure you are playing the 4 player rom (if that applies) and that the dipswitches are set to 4 player. Any issues with TMNT or Xmen?

That's what I mean. I can't find a 3-4 player version of any of these games. I have plenty of 3-4 player games that work and I found with no problem like X-men, TMNT, Knights of the Round, Snow Bros. 2, etc.. But for some reason there are a few games that supposedly are 3-4 player possible games but I just can't find the rom for them that allows it. That's why I wondered if there just never got to mame or if something else is needed?

Looks like you need to toggle the dipswitch in MAME for 4 player mode. Bank 2 switch 6.

AVP is either a dip setting, or in game menu setting, I forget which exactly. This is one reason why I love LEDBlinky. When I was first setting up my 4 player machine, I'd scroll through the games and the controls would preview light up showing me which games were 3-4 players. If I started a 3 or 4 player game (as indicated by the controls), but it only allowed 2 players to start, usually the number of players could be changed in the dip settings or in game menu (Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon comes to mind too).
