Pole Position on MAME

[landsmarra]

Hi all,

 

I am running MAME .61 and for a long time now I have noticed that any variant of Pole Position has incorrect acceleration and tire screeching sounds. I have downloaded the latest sound file for it but it still sounds the same...incorrect.

 

Anybody know if the sounds haven't been emulated correctly or is it something I'm doing?

 

Thanks.

heh.. lots of things/sounds in mame are wrong. Just check out Phoenix. Likewise I wouldn't be surprised if some sounds in Pole Position are off

MAME .61 is very much out-of-date now and they're up to .66.

I suggest upgrading your old version of MAME because it fixes so many bugs that were originally in hundreds of games.

 

If this isnt the case then you must have a bad ROM.

Go and register at http://www.mame.dk/ and download a later ROM Dump of Pole Position.

 

If Its still not the case then download a Bootleg ROM File of Pole Position (Make sure you keep your parent ROM in the same directory, or it won't work at all)

 

If thats still not the case, then Pole Position isnt emulated 100% and we start have to wait around (like me for some fixes) for later versions of MAME!

 

Hope this helps!....
