Summary	04506: nemesis & clones: Misaligned sprite and background in the 2nd stage.
Description	In level 2 there are misaligned sprites/background (turrets) when you move up and down.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Information	Originally this report included two reports. there are some weird behaviour in nemesis 1) Level 1 boss have a strange behaviour. It hits the top of the screen after a while it's core become grey and you can kill it with a single shot 2) in level 2 there are misaligned sprites/background (turrets) when you move up and down Here are some save states. Beware these are "about to die" saves :) I think there a major timing problem in here I've seen some videos of level 1 boss without such behaviour the problem is quite old. I have tested a old MAME version (maybe 138u1) with problem Of course I can be wrong but it needs confirmation Thank you The first one is not a bug.

No.07832 Fujix Administrator Oct 14, 2011, 11:42	Updated the report for the second issue. The first one is not a bug.
No.09811 zaxxon Tester Sep 18, 2013, 15:17 edited on: Nov 29, 2014, 17:04	Hi all, i have uploaded a new working save state for the nemesis 'level 2' issue (plus gradius save state included in the zip also), because the current older attached save states no longer work in mame 150. note: i did a re-test in mame 150 and on level two of nemesis and clones when the game starts to scroll up and down, the sprites/objects are misaligned/laggy EDIT: i uploaded a new save state because the previous 150 save state no longer works in mame 156
