[firehawk] bug fix

Post by **Pugsy** » Fri Feb 22, 2008 7:49 pm

Thanks to Vec2017, for pointing the problem out with firehawk. The cheats in the cheat file did work fine...but something has changed in MAME. The existing cheats work fine when you change the Location from Normal to Program Space. Unfortunately, it seems this effects most of the games in nmk16.c - hopefully they are all as simple....

Everything works great, although I did notice two things, and this just may be on my setup:

1) If you turn the cheats on *before* starting the game, PL1 or PL2 start won't work. I was able to circumvent this oddity by simply not turning the cheats on until the first level starts.

2) Player's ship flies offscreen on the point score screen after each boss fight. Again, simple workaround - either turn the codes off before the point screen, or turn them off while on the point screen - the ship will eventually fly back up from the bottom.
