[samsho2] Enable debug dip 2-7 (sprite viewer)

Post by samsho2 »

Debug dip 2-7 activates a sprite viewer for this game. Can someone make a cheat for it? When I try to activate it via the universe bios it throws an exception. Activating debug dip 2-7 works in winkawaks.

It also works in Final Burn Neo. This is the equivalent setting in FBN.

So I added this cheat to MAME, but makes the game crash:

<cheat desc="DEBUG DIP - Sprite Viewer"> <comment>Debug Dip 2_7</comment>
<script state="run">
<action>maincpu.pb@100001=40</action>
</script>
</cheat>

Can anyone verify if that is the correct way to enable debug dip 2_7?

DIP switches are bit related so you'd need to poke it with a mask, so something like this:-

maincpu.pb@100001=40|(maincpu.pb@100001 BAND ~40)

However, if it doesn't work with universe bios it's probably wont work with a MAME cheat either.

I tried your suggestion but it throws a different error that enabling it in the universe bios.
