      @fedekrum In case you intend to use FBNeo again, i just converted that cheat and added it to our cheat pack.

      Follow the instructions at https://docs.libretro.com/library/fbneo/#cheats, make sure you read those instructions properly since i keep getting reports because people are using the wrong folder and/or looking in the wrong menu.

      Afterward the cheat will be available through the core options, you just need to enable it there and it should be reapplied every time you boot the game.

      It might be important to make sure your version of FBNeo is not outdated, meaning updating it from sources is recommended.

        Your conversion can probably also be used by lr-mame2003, right ?

                      I have isolated the cheat (is not combined with other cheats anymore) and changed the format to proper temp variables and added a "run" status. This is probably the correct way to do it rather than my last version of the XML.

                      I updated the link on my first post.

                      @barbudreadmon, does it makes a difference to you?

                        Here is a video of a valid move with and without the cheat.

                            The fact that I have isolated just philmurr's cheat to fixes separated from other cheats
