Stargate, RobotronĪnd Joust are currently supported and playable. Steven Hugg provided a Williams games driver. If you use zipped roms remember to include them in the ZIP files. For this version I provide a set of fonts that can be used to avoid jerkiness in Bubbles doesn't start, and Sinistar do weird things at startup. 0.24: Marc Lafontaine provided drivers for Robotron, Splat, Defender, Joust, Stargate, Bubbles,īlaster and Sinistar. Control: 1 2 = Goes into game setup menu and 2 3 = Diagnostic menu. 0.25: Valerio Verrando fixed the Williams driver to support joystick in Blaster, Defender, Joust, 0.29: Changed description of 'robotron' to 'Robotron'. 0.30: Valerio Verrando added clone Robotron (Yellow/Orange label), where quarks are incorrectly called 0.33b7: Changed description to 'Robotron (Solid Blue label)'. 0.92: Highwayman added proms ($0, 200 - video inversion for cocktail table). The valuesĬonfigured in the OSD are saved in the config file for each game. Monitor, you can see the stack in Robotron off to the right, and now you can in MAME as well. Eugene Jarvis mentioned that if you adjust your Williams drivers have been updated as an example. Visible area, the game must have set up the screen size to be larger than the core visible area. In order to see beyond the game-configured The actual position of the screen within its container. 0.106u11: Aaron Giles added X and Y offset/scale controls for each screen. ![]() This will be good for a great deal of games. (Well, Aaron explained it, but I guess it went Including more than one type of artwork in the file. Do - Thanks to Trigg, I realized that one game can have more than one view, Do - The current US Robotron has been replaced, thanks to fine vectorizationsīy Zorg and to the loan by Vintage Arcade Superstore. Do - Fixed the colors and a couple missing elements on the Robotron Cabaret Do - Fixed some errors on the UK Robotron, and matched the colors from the UK andĬabaret version to those of the US version, originally color matched by Ad_Enuff. 0.133u1: Renamed (robotryo) to (robotronyo). Further refinements may be necessary but this addresses the most Should impact some timing behaviors such as later levels in Robotron, where approximately 10% of 0.145u2: Williams blits with bit 2 set take approximately 2x as long because they are bus-shared with When you see "FACTORY SETTINGS RESTORED", hit F2 (Service Mode) to proceed. MAMEInfo.dat entries: robotron and williams.c Recording if they are not shown during the recording. Use F2 repeatedly (cycles through settings) after the Listing archive: C:\MAME\inp\MARP\robotronTG.zipĪll configuration is done via soft-dips. Processing archive: C:\MAME\inp\MARP\robotronTG.zip Please don't judge what little Robotron play there is, as it is 8 am, I use nothing but a keyboard, and I am (obviously) no Robotron player!ħ-Zip 9.20 Copyright (c) 1999-2010 Igor Pavlov I am attaching an example inp of this, WolfMAME 160 naturally. Do all of the above without ever stopping the recording, and no one will ever have any trouble playing back your game (since the necessary factory reset is contained within the inp itself). At the end, hold F1 and F2 to show the settings screen again (which also serves to reset the number of F2 presses to the correct amount). Mark, as I think about this, it occurs to me that the IDEAL way to record a robotron inp is to first go to the settings via F2, scroll down to "Restore Factory Settings," choose "YES," hit F2 again, and then do what Salamandermike says above (hold F1 and F2) to get back to the settings screen to make your changes. Worth knowing, as this can be "reset" by repeating the process (holding F1 and hitting F2). One danger about this: I noticed that once you do this, it will happen EVERY time you run robotron, which could lead to a situation where the inp plays back incorrectly (since if MY robotron only takes 2 F2 presses to reach the settings screen, and yours takes 6 or 7, the inp will be playback wrongly if you try to play my inp or vice versa). Wow, this is really helpful, thanks for posting! I know that all of this is probably obvious to more experienced MAME / Robotron users, but it has been really helpful going through this here. Then it is just one more F2 after that to the settings screen. I like this little shortcut to get to the Robotron settings screen.Īt the "Factory Settings Restored" prompt press F2
