      @arcadez2003 that is a good suggestion. I dont think I changed anything but will give that a go. Do you know where I can get an FBA copy of this or is that not allowed on this forum? Apologies if the latter. Thanks.

          The rom should be the same as any recent MAME version.

            @barbudreadmon The ROM is the same. It is MAME 78 running off MAME 3000. It isnt running. I will have to look further into why it isnt running properly. It does boot up though but white screen only. Will try clearing out anything that may have saved.

              @common763 I don't understand what you are saying, the FBNeo rom (which is the same as latest MAME version of this rom, and definitely different from MAME 0.78) must be run with FBNeo. I don't know what's MAME 3000.

                  Hi there common763. I decided to tackle this one and can confirm the game indeed does work in mame2003. I can obviously tell you meant 2003 and 3000 was a typo. I would recommend you update the binary from the retropie setup.

                  Im not sure if you roms are in RetroPie/roms/arcade or RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro either way there will be a directory in there called mame2003 clear the contents of cfg and nvram and let us know how you go on.

                    @grant2258 yes meant 2003. I did what you and Arcade suggested. I cleared config/nvram and updated binary. rebooted and game worked fine. It had to be the clearing that fixed it. Thanks all. Appreciate it. Going forward will do that first when having issues.

                      @common763 glad you got it sorted mate. If you want to play this on fba neo @barbudreadmon is saying you will need the most recent rom for it from current mame if you want to try it out with on that

                        @grant2258 appreciate it. my setup is pretty much good to go. I have all my neo geo on FBA, and depending on the arcade game a mix between FBA and Mame3000. Thanks again. Have a great day!
