        @grant2258 ga2.zip has no issues running it on a Pi4B at 60fps on MAME-2010. For the 3B+, you had to use AdvanceMAME to hit framerate.

            @grant2258 no worries. I'm kind of a freak for MAME compatibility. Can look up anything at a glance:

                Ok, easy work-around that worked for me for 99% of my issues! I was having the same exact issue (still don’t know what triggered the problem, because it just showed up recently and before that I had know issues with any MAME emulators).

                I did some validation and determined that my ‘Tab’ controls config issue was only occurring with mame2010 ... all of my mame2000, mame2003 and mame2015 games had no issues with the Tab config controls.

                Every game that I was having problems with was able to run under Mame 2015 and so I was able to configure the controls with no issues. Not sure why my default emulator isn’t set to Mame 2015 but this is probably a good idea to change anyways, It has to be better to always try the the latest...

                Hope this helps someone else out as I struggled for several hours trying to resolve this one!!

                Game on RETRO-HEADS!! 😀

                  @roslof curious as I am still running a 3B+, does GA2 run on Pi4 flawlessly? It has emulation issues on the older cores.

                    @GreenHawk84 it seems to run well on 2016.
                    Here's my chart. Optimized Names # - Puyo Puyo Sun recently verified. Will be working to finish P, then onto Q-Z next.

                      @GreenHawk84 - It does run full speed on mame2003-plus at a solid 59.95 FPS (with 4 players) on a Pi 4 overclocked to 2070 MHz (I didn't try stock speeds) but it still has some minor shadow issues (literally the player shadows on the ground aren't quite solid black). In fact minor enough I didn't notice until someone else pointed it out.

                      @roslof - Are the players shadows solid in 2016? By the way that's a nice spreadsheet, thanks for sharing! I love the comment on Nastar (terrible) ... I agree, the first one was great and some how they managed to completely foul up the 2nd one 100%! ;)

                        They look correct to me. Here's a shot from lr-mame2016 and a youtube video of the PCB in action

                          @roslof nice, I have been wanting GA2 running correctly on Retropie. Looks like Pi4 is the way to go. I have a Pi4 board, I just need to get it up and testing for my cabinet to replace my Pi3B+.

                            @GreenHawk84 On the Pi3B+ I'm under the impression that GA2 worked well on AdvMame.

                              @roslof - Nice, that looks right, I appreciate the screenshot.

                              @pjft - Thanks for the tip on AdvMAME I'll give it try this weekend.
