Sexy Parodius Graphics Issue with MAME v0.168+

[FabulousVioletGuy]

Recent versions of MAME screw up the visuals on stage 3A of Sexy Parodius. I made a little diff that you can apply to the konamigx.cpp source to fix this if you wanna play the game on MAME and actually see all sprites on that level:

Here's to show you what I'm talking about:

I've noticed this too, so thanks for the patch!

Hello, we are in 2020 and i can't find a konamigx to fix this bug in sexy parodius. This is my favourite game. I have a konamigx but it's maybe not a good one. HLP ME PLZ !

Find a konamigx rom set?

I never had issues on MAME32plus!plus! 0.119 outside of one missing background layer in the last stage. Best alternative to play Sexy is from Saturn/PS1 port via emulator, works flawlessly without graphical issues.

I remember MAME lacking the falling pedals at the very beginning of stage 1 last I played (which was years ago now). But yeah, the PS1 / Saturn port is a good alternative. Ditto for Salamander 2, which had some issues with stage 3's background IIRC.

PS1/Saturn port of Salamander 2 is the best one. You can select Loop 2 right from the menu without clearing first loop, you need to finish first loop tho. Again, MAME32plus!plus! 0.119 runs SL2 fine and full save state support too, albeit with stage 3 transparent background (not too game-breaking) and fucked Vic Viper sprite, which can easily solved by playing 2P side.

Thanks for your answers but i want to play on Mame. Maybe FabulousVioletGuy will help me...

Being that the relevant MAMEtesters ticket has remained open for five years, I don't expect to see a fix anytime soon.
