No.22440 Robbbert Moderator Nov 14, 2024, 08:14	This issue doesn't seem to happen any more. No idea when it was fixed.
No.22480 Robbbert Moderator Nov 22, 2024, 20:52	Further testing shows that the crash is fixed, but there's still a bug. After choosing patch, move to the third slot (it says "rom"), and press right-arrow. MAME will quit back to the command-line with Fatal error: Unknown slot option 'nss_tvi' in slot 'exp'.
No.22481 Robbbert Moderator Nov 23, 2024, 06:10	I'm closing this as fixed, and moving my bug to a new report. The OP doesn't seem to be around any more.
