It works fine here.

If you are using the 0.141 cheat file make sure you are using MAME 0.141

They've always worked every time for me and still do. I've tested it quickly every time it's been reported and had no problems, maybe there's something that I'm not replicating when I test it or something that's not being mentioned in the bug report.

I've converted the RAM cheat into a program code cheat, maybe that'll work for you. Other than that I have no idea why it doesn't work for you.

Does this work any better?

Code: Select all

  <cheat desc="Invincibility">
    <script state="run">
      <action>maincpu.pw@607D52A=0009, maincpu.pb@607D53D=00</action>
    </script>
    <script state="off">
      <action>maincpu.pw@607D52A=8972, maincpu.pb@607D53D=FF</action>
    </script>    
  </cheat>

1. Open text editor with new text.
2. Copy the following code and paste.

Code: Select all

<mamecheat version="1">

  <cheat desc="Invincibility">
    <script state="run">
      <action>maincpu.pw@607D52A=0009, maincpu.pb@607D53D=00</action>
    </script>
    <script state="off">
      <action>maincpu.pw@607D52A=8972, maincpu.pb@607D53D=FF</action>
    </script>
  </cheat>

</mamecheat>
3. Save this file as "cottonbm.xml" into "cheat" folder.

BTW, this code doesn't work if you set in playing the game. 1st player character dies but 2nd or later gets "invincibility".
It's better to set in title or character selection screen.

I think the timing of "program hack" for SH-x CPU is very tight.
