If a recording's not working with win37b5 (why that version?), it's probably because you didn't remove the NVRAM before recording. From m36b14 on, NVRAM has to be deleted prior to making recordings on Neo-Geo games. If you don't want to deal with that, use a version released before then, preferably mame35 or m35tg3.(posted 9104 days ago)Am I the only one who can't playback INNUENDO's m36b8 recordings? I always get a "WORK RAM TEST" message, it only plays back for me with m36b7. Anyway...
The "leeching trick" you're using to get points is very lame, and you know it. Having a higher score when you die on Stage 4 while I got to Stage 12 isn't that fair, it's not a true test of skill. At any rate, I wouldn't expect that score to last too long in 1st place. Just a friendly warning, you might want to start playing it the way it was meant to be played.
