When you want to save on a full memory card and the system asks to delete a save, what happens if the save you delete is too small? Also can you remove and insert a new card at this time?

You need to delete another save until there is enough space. No idea if the system supports changing the card at that point.

This is because the version of zintrick you are using is a poor hack with incorrectly set up graphics and data. Use the other version.

Thats because the other version is not in MAME. I have no idea why though because its a conversion I did long long ago. Its just like the conversion in MAME already (fake proto), only difference is my conversion is much better and is not trying to pass itsself off as something it is not.

When you transfer all memory card data to a new card, what happens if the new one has not enough space or contains data for the same game?

I guess it will give you an out of space error or ask you to overwrite.

If you transfer all data, it always wipes everything existing on the card first.

If the card is too small to receive the contents of the copied card, it will error.

And if you transfer only one save that's already present on the receiving card (with different data), what happens?

Can't remember off the top of my head if it will ask you to confirm replacing it or just tell you it already exists with that name. Either way, you can do it.

How about a save that's created before you're asked to save, like for options saving or else, what happens if your card is full?

I dont think games create a save that way but if they any do they will probably ask you to make space like what happens with saves.

I was surprised to find out you still can't disable the splash screen on an AES. I always disable it for a more stock feel. Is this option ever coming to AES?

You can disable the splash screen on AES, because the AES does not have any backupRAM however you need a memory card to be able to do it.

Raz, I would like to make a feature request. Would it be possible to change the credit counter LEDs on an MVS cab to spell out FREE when the hard dip is set to free play, rather than the default 0s?

I am not sure if that is possible, I don't know if those LEDs are limited to numbers only or not.

Hi Razoola, could i program the unibios on a 27C4002 instead of a 27C1024?.
Both has the same pinout except pins 38 and 39.
27C1024 pin 38=NC pin 39=P
27C4002 pin 38=A16 pin 39=A17

Regards
