Hello!

Just tested the new alpha mission core. Game is running but it shows 2 pictures of the game (split screen)

All other cores are not having this problem. Is there a specific setting in the osd?

Monitor is a VNS 2000 running mister fpga over vga 15khz RGB. Perhaps there is a special ini setting as

far as I remember Alpha Mission was running at a 61 Hz. Question is is it a monitor or core issue

regards,

Alex, is your overscan setting turned on or is the wallpaper you are using the wrong resolution? It looks cut off at the top.

I have just noticed that the merged mame file names have been fixed. They are within the dev/mra folders:

The .rbf needs to be renamed to AlphaMission_20220506 to get it to work.
