<edit> OK, I think that it may be a ROM issue - same issues when running directly from command prompt - will search for new ROMs

Have you got a joypad with analog sticks on it? (Like on the PS2 and 3?) If so this made my MAME games go funny because of a bad calibration. If not, check your PM's.
Well I never - unplugging the old PS2 faithful did the trick. No issue with this on 0.106.

Keyboard / dreadful score it is then :)

I did have the above problem like I said, but go into Windows control panel/game controllers, and really configure/calibrate the joypad, move the analog thumb sticks around when it says Press all directions on the Dpad, try to get it in the centre and move it in all 4 corners.

This sometimes works.

Also, how do you record with .140 lol

pm sent re roms.

re recording there is a good page found via the "Help" option in the middle of the MARP main menu, then choose windows commandline. The "record" and "playback" batch files should already be in your MAME 140 folder, so you don't need to add them manually.

I'm command line challenged so I'm using the gui (I think it's Mamepgui 1.5.0 but I'm not at home right now to check). I guess I never checked to make sure it was recording properly as I spent all of my small amount of free time last night just getting the darn thing set up. Once set up though, the gui is sweet.

MAMEPGUI and QMC2 are both good, cross-platform frontends for both MAME and MESS. Just set the NVRAM folder to NUL (or /dev/null for Linux/OS X users) and that should cover any NVRAM issues.

If someone can please just check my submission under "ballas" on the scoreboard. I think I recorded correctly. Just want to confirm this.

First of all I saved the file on my pc (consulting it online is actually a pain)

Open it, select all the cells to convert and copy to clipboard (it does not matter if you cannot see all of them on the screen)
Open whatever graphic manipulation program you have (I use GIMP, but everyone powerful enough should be fine) and "Paste to new image"
I guess Windows' Paintbrush is not powerful enough, but you can try ;)
Save in an appropriate format. For few colors images like this, GIF or PNG are very good, take a look:

This game just plain sucks. I am usually into shooters, but this is way too frustrating.
RAX, please dont make me play this again :wink:

I searched Google for:

slapfigh a77_13.6a

and found a nice site without having to scroll. ;) Note, however, that Google does manipulate the results based on your search history so you may not be so lucky!

Ops, I edited when I tried only quote this post... :? let's go again...

Considering this game have many tricks and secrets, I will detail one very important... this one:

"- Get extra star when starting a new life is allowed!"
Before you start a new life (the 1st one, or after you was killed), before the next screen appear, hold Button1 + Button2 + Up/Right (diagonal). You will hear a sound and you will be with one star (if you already have one when you died, it's useless). I think most of you will use this tip to help you in some of the other tricks! Good luck!

@RAX: I will try it when possible (PS.: your link open only a blank image here!).

Hey guys, I really hate that we didnt stick with games unique to wolfmame 106. Me and Hatchett were playing this tournament on a nice mame cabinet and now we're having a hard time getting a different version to function on the cab without a front end we can actually see and use on the old rastar monitor we're using.

Can someone tell me how to do a record/playback function using the old mame ui without a frontend. Im so use to just rightclicking the game and choosing to record. I have very little experience outside of the mame windows UI. Suffice it to say without being able to do this I cant run this version of mame on my cabinet and thus will most likely submit a pretty rotten score on this game.

Any help would be sweet, thanks

Download and unzip/extract the wolfmame140 program listed in the first post in this thread.

Extract it to C:\wm140

In the C:\wm140 directory, create a directory called roms, in there put the alcon.zip and slapfigh.zip roms.

Now, click on start / programs / accessories / command prompt

In that window, keep typing cd.. and press enter

Keep doing this until it says C:\

Type cd wm140 and press enter

Now, typing this in and pressing enter will start your game recording the inp

mame slapfigh -record slapfigh.inp

After recording, typing this in will play it back to check it

mame slapfigh -playback slapfigh.inp

You might have to configure your cabinets controllers for the direction and buttons, to do this type in

mame slapfigh and press enter

Then just pause the game, press tab, and select Input (This Game) then change the up, down, etc etc then exit MAME, then type in the how to record the inp above.
