I tried searching for this and couldn't find it. How do you switch between games once you've already started playing one? I can cycle through all the games fine, but once I actually hit the start button I can no longer cycle through the other games. I have to restart the machine to choose another game. I read the manual and it has nothing in it about this.

Thanks,
Scott

Thats normal, simply make sure you have chosen the game you want to play before pressing start. You can only then change game again after a game over.

K, just wondering if there was some secret button combo that would let me swap without game over. Thanks!

With a Universe Bios v2.3 by Razoola.....installed in your mobo.

You can do a soft reset(via secret button press) to choose another game without having to tun the cab on and off.

... while in a game ..soft reset the system via the uni bios menu then then choose another game.

Universe Bios v2.3 Released.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I finally got around to releasing a New version of the Universe Bios. I was hoping to get this released sooner but it took longer than I had expected.

WHATS NEW IN VERSION 2.3
----------------------------

Additions / Changes
Hilighting 'Soft Reset' in the ingame menu will now give you new options when moving the 1up joystick left and right. New options are;
Main Memory Viewer
Video RAM Viewer
Menu Color Changer
The screen will now blank out if the ingame menu is left alone on its main menu page (after about 1 minute). Simply move or press any 1Up control to restore the screen. This new option helps prevent monitor burnin if you use the ingame menu to pause your games.
Removed the trackball cheat from 'The Irritating Maze', instead trackball support is always enabled unless the joystick cheat is used.
Fixes
Fixed a minor ingame menu color issue with 'Real Bout Fatal Fury'.
Fixed music offset so 'GhostLop' music can now be heard in the jukebox.
Fixed 'SVC Plus' bootlegs from not allowing character select when in console mode.
Cheats / CRC Database
Added crc info for 'Metal Slug 6 hack'.
Added crc info for the AES version of 'Metal Slug 4'.
Added crc info for 'King of Fighters 2002 Magic Plus (hack)'.
Added crc info for 'Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Super Plus (hack)'.
Added cheats to give 1000 credits in 'Jockey GP'.
Added cheats to give 1000 credits in 'VLiner'.
Added cheats to 'Metal Slug 6 hack'.
Added cheats to play as Rugal in 'KOF 94'.
Added cheats to play as Amakusa in 'Samurai Shodown'.
Added cheats to unlock bosses in 'Art of Fighting'.
Added cheats to unlock bosses in 'Bang Bead' plus more.
Added cheats to shrink characters in kof96.
Added cheats to force single color blocks to drop in 'Gururin'.
Fixed the 'KOF 97' red energy cheat to the correct energy level.
Updated the 'KOF97' unlock bosscharacters cheat to also allow Orochi.
Updated the 'Fatal Fury 2' hidden character cheats, hopefully they wont't cause a crash now after winning a match. There will still be problems on the continue screen.
Added cheat to allow more than one projectile in 'KOF94' and 'KOF96' though it only works well if used with the action speed up cheat.
Added Cheat / CRC support for the following Korean releases.
Art of Fighting 3: The Path of the Warrior
Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers
Fighters Swords
The Last Soldier


..................................................................................

I have an older version Universal Bios Chip installed in the 4 slot of my Candy cab.
To bring up the Menu I have to press Player 1 start button and the select button at the same time(via secret button press
