Wow...thank you guys for your help and the update.

Has there been any changes with Family Guy lately?  Been trying to run fg_1200af but getting terminated.  I've tried everything I can think of and keep getting same termination error.  Even downloaded new rom from Stern and tries, getting same error.  Rom name inside of zip matches what PinMAME is expecting.

 This is the rom I use with -  SAMBuild_r4639

Thanks. Someone was able to send it to me... Now running into the same thing with Shrek, World Poker and Wheel of Fortune.  I'm not sure what changed, but my roms for these games were working... Now when I check them in PinMAME they say Actual = 0 meaning the filesize in the zip is 0 bytes.

Check your parent ROMs, I had an issue with FG at one point, it was using a rim out of the parent.

There was some extensive rom renaming with the official source in the 3.1 cycle, especially S.A.M. system.

Easiest thing would be to simply re-download.

Or you can audit your rom collection with pinmame.exe and clrmamepro

Or I think the official distribution may still include a bat file that will do the renaming for you.

Not only that. It used to be ok if only the *.zip file was correctly named. Now, the file inside needs to be correct too. At least it was like this just some revisions back, and before that - it was good enough if only the *.zip was named correctly.

Well - then it is weird. Or at least it was. It is not like I re-try this myself on a weekly basis :)

Have at least two cases where I've helped people out from the rom renaming and in both cases they needed to replaced the filename inside the zip in order to get it working. At least that was what they reported back to me.

Implement proper 'fast flips' support for some WPC-S games: Still uses solenoid 31
 (WHO Dunnit)
Implement 'fast flips' support for most WPC-95 games: Takes over solenoid 31, so is compatible with the existing VP core scribts UseSolenoids=2 implementation

st_162(h) would have to be added by  @DJRobX

Once the color ROM patch is updated, then I"ll work on it.    The instructions to determine the FF address are in the source if anyone is more motivated to do it sooner.  @stumblor also knows how to do it, if he wants to take a stab at it.  :)

when you say no color DMD yet, do you mean if I upgrade I will lose the awesome ability to have custom color DMD's by using a .pal & .vni file?  I used to upgrade always to latest vpinmame and never had issues with color DMD before.  Thanks

No, I mean that I have added slots for custom color DMD for Metallica 1.80.0 Pro and LE. At the moment, there exists no patch to the new Metallica game code that adds full color DMD but when a patch is made available then this SAMBuild will support it. Also, support for FastFlips must still be added for Metallica 1.80.0 Pro and LE. Custom color DMD for all other tables works as before.

For the time being, if you want to play Metallica with custom color DMD and FastFlips then simply continue using 1.7.
