Doesn't playback here either.

Goes nutty are a while too, with Coin Error and so on.

Different results, but he always starts in Panic Mode. Zeroed.

His next recording is also suffering from this coin error stuff and starts in Panic Mode:

Well I can always get it to work somehow but I think recording with no sound helps like last time...

[edit] tried another one with no sound, I think that helps

RTC issue, I would guess...

does an RTC issue guess mean you tried either one of these? just trying to get the unconfirmed body count higher.

It looks like now i can playback stagemode puzzloop recordings but not panic mode, ugh! can the rtc issue be in one of the split games?

can anyone at all confirm (or deny) any puzzloop pm recording score from the following link list?

Hmm.. well I don't know how to tell the modes apart atm.. I downloaded the top score and gave it a whirl. The mode was moved upwards once, and not only did it not score the wonderful 70k+ advertised, but it reached a maxium of 1,780 [with and without sound] and a COIN ERROR [3 credits]

At game over, it starts a new game up...

Could this be requiring NVRam? Or is this just so horrendously fucked up atm, that it should not only be zero'd but archived for the time being?

I don't think anyone can playback the panic mode ones. I know I can't...

ok this is truly sad.... Haze can we send in a funky playback problem bug report?

puzzloop stage mode recordings playback fine but puzzloop panic mode recordings will not playback and will be zeroed untill mame works right (will put in special rules.)

I'm also going to opinionize (and maybe make a poll if there is some decent) that this game (because it is slow) be recorded in alphamame only. any thoughts on this, puzzloop fans?

I agree for all games will be recorded on Alphamame or 35TG, because there are too many stranges scores now in marp :-(

I think somebody (Kale?) came up with an RTC patch for it .. if you try that and find it works fine I can put it in the code for the driver, if not I don't know how to fix it....

I believe it's already in 0.63.
