This cheat was added incorrectly to the cheat database.

Code: Select all

  <cheat desc="Beat Level Automatically">
    <script state="on">
      <action>temp0=prg.mb@0FDE</action>
    </script>
    <script state="run">
      <action>prg.mb@0FDE=32</action> <!-- This ROM cheat was made by nolberto82 - 8FDE -->
    </script>
    <script state="off">
      <action>prg.mb@0FDE=temp0 </action>
    </script>
  </cheat>

It reads differently than the one nolberto posted above and it also crashes the emulator.

Sorry I don't understand what the problem is...

Drivers change over time, memory areas and regions change as do the game shortnames.

For instance "machridra" no longer exists in 0.259 (or several versions before)
The ROM area changed from maincpu to prg a long time ago - you should always tie the MAME version you are using with the nearest MAME cheat release. It is not guaranteed to be 100% though. I try to update the cheats as MAME evolves and breaks cheats - it's a thankless task.

The game in 0.259 is "nvs_machridera" and the "Beat Level Automatically" in the 0.259 cheat collection works correctly with MAME 0.259 and it does NOT crash the emulator.


I'm guessing you are using an old MAME version?

[ReyVGM]

You're right, I am using an older version. I didn't think that would cause an issue since every other cheat has worked fine so far.

Sorry about the improper report then.
