[ens04]

i got the cheat file from http://cheat.retrogames.com/ and I put it on the mame directory. I'm playing Ultimate Mortal kombat 3, my question is how do I activate the hidden characters?? i press tab, then go to Cheat, the enable/disable cheats, now what should I do?

Enable the cheats you want to use, then start the game. Some cheats needs to reset the emulation first, but not usually

Some of the cheats will work on certain period and some won't. Don't rely on cheats too much though.
