Ok, I uploaded another (worse) one that should playback correctly now.
I think I know why the previous wasn't replayed properly. Just let me know.

Loses first round.

Does it play back correctly for you?

What frameskip are you using, if any?

Welcome to MARP.
I guess I'm getting a bit confused with all this. This one works for me, but with a little problem I just discovered now.

Let me explain in detail. I am currently using the (in)famous Windows ME. I instaled wolfmameplus twice, one with my old hi and nvram files (for high scores keeping) and another one clean (named CLEAN Wolf) than only points to the roms dir from the other. (I think this doesn't have nothing to do with the problem, but it's good to say).

So I wanted to record my bbbxing input. I opened an MS-DOS window (don't know how to call it in English, opening DOS inside Windows ME), go to the CLEAN Wolf folder and type record bbbxing bbbxing. I rocked through the game and then I went back to check it. Type playback bbbxing bbbxing and everything went OK.

But if I open mame32ip100.exe from the CLEAN folder in windows (by doubleclicking) and select "Playback input", it doesn't playback properly (loses in first round).

I hope that this is the problem. So they come a few questions to my mind: Am I doing it wrong? Should I open the windows exe and select "Play and record input"? How do you guys do it?

Thanks to all, and sorry for the problems I am giving and for my English.


EDIT: the first rival should be the fat guy and not the Korean one.
EDIT2: and I am using autoframeskip

Try using a fixed frameskip rate. (Whatever is necessary to get you the speed to be acceptable.)

That is most likely the problem.

OK, I would try to upload another one in a few minutes.
Thanks again.

frameskipping most likely isn't the issue here. you hit the nail on the head in that you need to make recordings that playback in "clean" versions of mame, with out nvrams etc, that's the biggest playback issue here :) So, in order to do that you need to delete your nvrams or nvram directory before recording to make a good public inp (hmm i thought wolfmame was good abot ignoring existing nvrams).

good luck and have fun here!

I said that I already got a clean folder with no connection to my nvram folder (also the record feature tries to change the possible nvram's files to make it easy to do) so that's no the issue, I guess.

I upload here in the forums (I hope this is allowed) two games with limited frameskip (0 and 8) in order to see if any works. Both are supposed to fight first with the fat guy and lose in the third match (in the fskip0 I quit before losing, but in the fskip8 is a TKO).

Sorry for the problems again, I just want this to work well before making more replays.

Unless one uses the -allownvram option, it's perfect about it, and unless our friend here did, it's not the problem here.

Frameskipping, especially since he used auto, is a strong possibility, however.

Both of them start out fighting Kim.

Tried toggling the 68k core, and the .63 bug trick.

Tried running windowed. No change.

I was guesing it wasn't frameskipping because i thought this wasn't an analogue input game, normally only they are affected by frameskiping. I'm now suspecting a bios country issue or something init file related if that recent recording didn't do the trick, can you upload your mame.ini file Omenda?
