Summary 00035: rohga: The game freezes at the mission 5 boss.
Description At the beginning of the mission 5 boss, the game itself throws an error and stops (but the music continues running).

- rohga : confirmed- rohga1 : played to the end without problems- rohga2 : confirmed- rohgau : played to the end without problems- rohgah : played through all of level 5, no probs

I just noticed that every set of rohga has different 68000 code from each other, maybe the protection could not be the same for all revisions.

The protection on some of the Deco games is pretty evil. On Double Wings, it gives jump addresses etc. on the bosses, and I think Rohga does something similar. I imagine it's giving an invalid jump address, jumping to it, and throwing the address exception.

I haven't changed anything to do with the protection.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was just a buggy set tho

rohga1 and rohga2 *claim* to be the same version, but are actually very different code, might be they accidentally put out a broken set of roms at one point..

protection emulation has been completely redone. this should be verified in 0.149u2, if it still happens then it's probably a game bug in that set.
