Moon patrol not working?
Long time since I played moon patrol, so I decided to try it yesterday with the 090u3 build. It says there are a few roms missing. (I do have a complete romset fully checked with clrmamepro.) I decided to try earlier versions of mame. Same thing there... 078 is the earliest version I have tried. I also tried with all kinds of roms - from older sets - but still it doesn't work. Anyone else who has noticed this? Maybe it has been broken for a long time?

Tried with various versions and I'm always missing file 2a. The file names changed somewhere before mame53 it seems. My oldest after that is mame37 and it asks for various roms files that have slightly different names than the current ones plus the 2a file. I know I've played this before a while ago, so perhaps that file was included at some point in an older romset? Kinda like how mspac has an older set that you need for certain replays?
Edit: There were changes in 78 to 79 and from 37b6 to 37b7, probably other places too. Why the heck do they always rename/modify all this stuff, what a headache.

Mine works on Wolf .90 & .78, due rom name changes on mame .79.
The only thing that game is missing is the missing background graphic of moon base when you reached the end of level Z. This was been that way for a long time. No wonder the Mame dev hasn't fix the bug, yet.
Don't you hate it when the Mame Dev added rom name changes on the Sega re-write.
