I have a Taito Ghost n Goblins board that has bad sprite graphics. The game powers up fine, runs, sounds good, backgrounds look great but the character sprites are all missing from the screen. There are some garbled sprites scattered about on various parts of the screen at all times. I have removed and cleaned all the ROMs, it looks like I will need to get a new burn done for this one in particular. Does anyone know which one it is?
I have heard of some people troubleshooting stuff like this with MAME but I think that involves compiling yourself to run the game with missing ROMs etc etc. I searched around a bit and looked at MAWS but it didn't really say much.
Thanks!
EDIT - I found a schematic for the game on this board (http://www.dsbelec.iinet.net.au/GhostsandGoblinsSchematics.pdf) and after reviewing it, i see page 19 has info about the character generator ROM. I will begin my troubleshooting here and see where it leads me. Any suggestions appreciated!
Thanks
