No.23442 hap Developer 12 days ago	#6 is fixed after lowering refresh rate here: https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/867ae9a635dc810861ec9700a741a918e47dd15d I can confirm the other 5 bugs with your INP file on 0.278. I can't repro it by playing the game myself after my above commit. Try -cheat and lower the refresh rate to 59, check if the bugs goes away?
No.23443 tenpar Tester 12 days ago	Glad the inp file helped. I tried to change the refresh rate with the Slider Control menu but it did not work. I tried building with all the source I got from Git and it seems to work fine. (The inp file was not available). Thanks for the fix.
