I beat the 23 year old Punch Out RECORD!!! But......

I can NOT freak in' believe this!

First up, I have owned a punch out cabinet for over 10 years. The monitors need new cap kits so I didn't want to set any records on sub par monitors. Not to mention, to video an entire 13 hour marathon on a cabinet with NO breaks can be a PROBLEM!!!

So I decided to go ahead and beat this record on MAME.

Here was the Breakdown of my results

START TIME - Saturday July 4th 11:16Pm - FINISHED Sunday July 5th at 12:31 PM
13 hours 15 minutes grand total!!

17,0734,60 Total points ONE life. I gave up where I started. I let Glass Joe beat me after I hit 17 mill. "NO rematches" Set to twin galaxies dip switch settings

Previous record from 1986 was 15,999,990


At any rate. After recording the entire marathon I am eager to transfer the results to DVD for twingalaxies. However, when I play back the HUGE .inp file it only plays back the first 1 and a half matches. Half way during the second match my fighter completely stops fighting?? I tried playing it back a few times now and sometimes it makes it to the THIRD match them my fighter stops fighting???

Its like the RECORDED file changes almost everytime? I assume It is all there cause the files is huge! So why wont mame play back

I hope a converter or something exists to correct this issue or im totally choked!!
 
From what I read, a friend of mine, Rick Carter held the current Mame Punch out record.
He posts regularly on www.classicarcadegaming.com forums under the screenname of permafrostrick. I am sure he would be more than happy to help you figure out your inp recording woes. I am sure he also welcomes the competition.
