Homebrew Bubble Memories message on mame2003

[DDinghoya]

Hi everyone

When I loaded Bubble Memories(bubblemj of v0.78) on Wii mame2003

"push test switch back up data failed" on screen.

As I know, for PC as below method;

"The first time you run the game, it will say '...BACKUP DATA FAILED'. Press F2 to enter test mode and exit to start."

However, I could not find input or mapping menu for test mode key on Wii mame2003.

Would you please inform to me good method?

Best regards,

Currently you must use a keyboard to "press" the service button. There is a bounty fundraiser going to make the service button remappable: https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-plus-libretro/issues/147

However there should be a workaround already in place that allows people like you without a keyboard to "bootstrap" past that problem. Are you able to test this same romset with MAME 2003-Plus?

If it also exists there, it would be good if you could file an issue on github at http://github.com/libretro/mame2003-plus-libretro

@markwkidd
Fortunately, you don't need a keyboard(it's not implemented in Retroarch wii). You can remap F2 key to any button.
And I guess he's talking about the inofficial mame2003+ builds I've posted here.

@DDinghoya
Open retroarch menu :
OPTIONS->Display MAME menu->enabled

Resume and in MAME menu :
Input (this game)->Service Mode->'Press the button you want here'

Don't expect high fps with this game...

Thank you for your strong reply!

Right! I used your Mame2003 core "B" for Bubble Memories.

At first, Choose Core and load bubblemj rom on Main menu, and then move to Quick menu -> OPTIONS I could not find "Display MAME menu" on screen.

Please attached file.

You're using an old version(0.2 ?) and that option wasn't there yet. You can download the latest v0.4 here : https://gbatemp.net/threads/mame-2003-plus.499497/

If you want to keep your version you can do this :
Open Mame menu with Wii classic controller ZR. From there you can access game info. To remap to another button : Quick menu -> Controls -> Button 8.

Thank you for your strong reply!!!

I tested 2 ways and then done by your second reply!

I found out it and no problem as below on MAME v0.4
. OPTIONS->Display MAME menu->enabled : Ok
. Resume and in MAME menu : Ok

Unfortunately, I could not find "Input (this game)" therefore, Sub-menu items could not be verified. Please see the attached file.

Anyway, Ooh my god thanks a million!! I cant express my gratitude for you!!!
