Well, after a first wave of confirms, 3 remarks :
1°) all inputs playbacks ok, except two I don't manage to playback (dax's 136440 and sjk's 130030) ... I have a message "exiting due to signal SIGSEGV ; page fault at eip=9846e07c, error=0004" ; can anybody tell me what is happening ?

2°) I've accidentally confirmed jlr's 52560 but it is in fact 52260 ; can jlr or someone edit to the good score please ?

3°) I'm still unable to tell if all these inputs has been made with default settings (diff=normal) ; there is 7 levels for the diff and it is impossible for me to tell if diff=normal for each inp ; could someone make a dip checker like for previous tourney ?

1) that means mame crashed, i can't play them back either with winxp haven't tried 98 since i think you phil have win98.

3) chkdips has been asked of ben jos, so it will be done some time before the tournament ends i think :) he will proly mail it to laga and he'll mail it to the tourney judges to check the dip switches.

Hmm? Not sure whats wrong phil, she plays back for me well enough. SJK's score played back fine for me as well.(BTW his score checked out.) Used alphamame32 .63. The game has no sound. Do I need to record with no sound? I'll try re-submitting a better score

Well this is strange . Mine and SJK's are the only ones I can playback. I get an error with eveyone elses and mame crashes. What am I doing wrong? Do I need a fixfile for ixion or something?

About the dip checker, we'll now wait for Ben Jos program. I hope he'll be able to send me that thing soon

About dax's 136440 and sjk's 130030, mame crashed with me also, using Millenium.

Does this have something to do with what we used to input? I did not use a mouse and I can't get anyone elses to work too...

Sorry, your new input (115630) is still crashing ;
does someone have an idea of wht is wrong for sjk & dax ?

What about now?

I went ahead and zeroed my score until someone can figure this out. Im not sure what the deal is with this game. SJK, try playing my submission back, I bet it will work for you. In my next submission Ill submit my cfg as well but I don't think the problem lies there.

Not sure if this will help but here is what my ixion looks like:


1948a.u91
1941a.u72
1949a.u93
1939a.u68
1954a.u92
1944a.u51
1955b.u29
1943a.u50
1952a.113
1945a.u77
1953a.u90
1938b.u28
1946a.u78
1942a.u98
1940a.u69
1947a.u79
1951a.112
1937d.u27
1950a.111

maybe this will help, maybe not

it would if you tell us the CRC's of the zip, look at the CRC collumn in winzi p.

Dont know if may help. but i see the same behaviour with Phil's and BBH's dmame inps when i tried it in mame32

I don't see a "CRC" colomn.
Here is what I get when using winzip

oh you might have to go to the View->ShowCollumsn and turn it on, it's proly turned off by default. those are just the file sizes. But a better way now that i think about it is just to do mame -verifyroms ixion, if this checks out with NO output, then we all have the same stuff. I was having some strange outrun crashing problems with outrun tgmame but i could play it back with mame32 (but then again i tried it again and regular tgmame didn't crash) so i had no idea whats going on. Although the outrun problems i had were crashing at the very begining of the game not after the credit was entered.
