I tried a couple times trying to crash using the C button with no success. Please create an .INP file which documents what you did to make the game crash. Try playing back locally to see if the game crashes consistently. If it does, please attach that file to the report.

Thank you.

Please try as the step: insert coins(button 5), then button 3 to bet, and start(button 1), into the game, press start to skip the tiles change, press N to get a tile, then C.
Actually the crash can happen anytime, but Button C is the nightmare for the player who tempt to throw the tile.

This may due to the unoffically supported save and load and it hapens when I load the sav. But I failed to reproduce it when I normal start the game without loading. I will try to get an inp. file if I don't use loading.

this kind of problems might very well be due to use save/load functions on games which do not support save states.
there is a reason why MAME pops up a message stating that the driver does not support saving ;)

I agree. I'll give dyq some more hours to provide an INP without using any saves - otherwise it will be closed.

I offer a reward to submit the bug inp on the EZ forum and got one. This time the game last for almost 9 mins, just after get into the 12ve game, the game crashed.
I use my mame32 135u1 to get it played back. Please check.

Here I upload another inp and png to show a short time crash bug (5mins). The another strange thing happened is when the player got Ron and showed the unwanted pic as in the png0065.

Looks like your typical IGS 'protection failed' type crash. Luckily their pre-PGM games were generally easier to patch / figure out. I won't be looking at it myself, I'm just saying that it's not surprising that such a bug exists :-)

I played this game through 10 matches and more and couldn't confirm the problem. Marking as fixed.
