Xybots: stage map bug

Alan Kwan · Post by **Alan Kwan** » Wed Apr 07, 1999 12:30 pm

Is this a common problem with Xybots or is this just some
problem with my machine? In a late stage (stage 7 and up),
sometimes the map is messed up, and I end up playing in a
'bad' stage with no exit. However, the correct stage data is
contained in the ROM, because after game over during the continue
countdown, the correct stage map is shown in the map area.

I'm playing Xybots with v35b2; beta 9 has the same problem,
in additional to a lower frame rate.

This has been fixed in v35rc2. Bravo, MAME programmers!
Too bad the PC controller set-up seems to make it
impossible to play this game with 2 players. Any tips?

The "lower frame rate" I mentioned was actually, of course,
higher frameskip due to default "auto".
