but japanese system in 95% of neo geo games is the same of the default bios.

Top hunter and pulstar is the same games in japan/usa system.

other settings are default (number of lives, difficulty, time etc.)

Do remember that the controls vary across the regions in Neo Drift Out. Mostly cornering is a fair bit easier using a US BIOS, and I think the japanese BIOS will differ too. Also remember that you can see what BIOS is used using wlfview.

Hehe, interesting. Where I say that I want to be judge?

Guys, I totally don't have time for watching inps. I will try to prevent conflicts (as sawys wrote), we will see what I can do.

The main uploads page only lists scores ranked 20th or better by default.

At the bottom of the uploads page, change "Worst position to show" to whatever you want, click "Set as default", then click "Do it"

hey guys, I would strongly discourage using the newest version of WolfMAME for this competition. The reason being that there is some weird bug that popped up in MAME Plus around version 0.102, and has been affecting various Neo-Geo games. It's like the old 0.63 bug - people seem to be split into two sets, and anyone in the same set as you can playback your inp, but people in the other set can't. We still haven't been able to figure out what exactly is causing this bug, and whether or not there's any way around it.

I mention this because Pulstar seems to be one of the games affected by the bug now. I tried to watch Gemant's inp but couldn't, whereas someone in the other set apparently can (and yes, I made sure the bios was correct). I think 0.101 or anything earlier than that is a better bet than 0.102 or 0.103.

(off-topic - you can bet that 0.102/0.103 will NOT be used for the Knockout tourney because of all this. so hold on to those older versions.)

For the second day France is first. But Gemant make great inps on Pulstar, Charlie Ninja and Top Hunter. Newabo for italy and JYD and Red Star for France haven't send any inp yet.

Wonder

I try to watch my pulstar inp and I see correctly.

that's what I mean. Your recording will play back for you and anyone else in the same "set" as you, but I can't get it to work no matter what. This bug doesn't exist in 0.101 and earlier.

EDIT: uhhhh... okay, nevermind what I wrote before. The problem was figured out by NotMan tonight, it was the presence of a memory card file in the memcard directory that was screwing recordings up. So everyone just make sure that you don't have any memcard.000 files in that directory. (don't worry Gemant, you didn't do anything wrong)
