Space Firebird sound problems.

I have just spent today on a re-install of my Mame cab and took the opportunity to update my pretty old version of Mame to the latest version of Arcade (an arcade only version based on the MameUIFX source).

The sound on this game has never been perfectly emulated but with this new version of Mame I have lost a lot of the sounds that I had previously, I get no firing or explosion sounds at all, but these were present in the much older version I was running before.

I have downloaded a fresh set of ROMS but it has made no difference, I have noticed that the bootleg versions are the same too, so I am guessing it is maybe a driver problem.

If someone else with an up-to-date Mame version could fire it up and see if theirs is the same I would appreciate it, I don't want to fanny around with it further if it is something I cant fix.

Have you added the samples to the samples folder, I think space firebird uses samples for sound.
Click to expand...

I dragged across the samples folder from my previous install so if it needs them they should be there, I will double check though.

So it looks like the contents of my samples folder got corrupted when I was dragging files back and forth between my NAS and Mame cab PC, I cant even open any of the zips without explorer having a lie down :)

I am going to grab a fresh set of samples and nuke my existing folder!

Thanks for that, you steered me on the right path.
