Game Problem: Rolling Thunder 2

[metzger]

When I try to run Rolling Thunder 2 on MAMEUI32 it does the ram tests up to 9ramtest and then zilch.
I've tried screwing around with the service mode and the dip switches to no avail.
Any ideas?

Works OK here. What mame version are you using?. There was a driver/rom update in Mame 0.123 that fixed a ramtest bug.

MAMEUI32 0.130u2
I'll try some other emulator.

Hate to double post, but updating the emulator fixed the problem.
I feel like a jackass for not doing that in the first place.

Its 'the' most common cause of roms not working in mame. Because they update the emulator and the roms so often it can be a nightmare getting compatible roms for the version of Mame you're using.

Its worth taking the time to learn how to use a rom manager like ClrMamePro if you use Mame regularly as it is a quick way to audit and check your roms.
