real ghostbusters questions, and hard to track down issue
does anyone with a real ghostbusters have the 'green ghost' powerup in their game? i've had two different boardsets and both only give the proton powerup. i've tried all the different difficulty settings and whatnot and nothing's changed.
also, per mame, i should get a missile shooter from one button and proton stream from the other. when i play, i get a full proton stream at the beginning where it starts out about halfway powered in mame, and also, i get one fire out of the missile blaster per life, where it shoots out a mega blast that kills everything in sight. anyone have this?
wondering if it's a rom difference or what?
finally, here's the real thing that's confusing me. when using the proton stream, it makes a high pitched squealing noise. about half the time i get static from this sound. the first board i got (from quarter arcade) had this issue, so i returned it, and the second board does it as well. anthony at quarterarcade mentioned the board i sent back worked with no issues and sounds were all fine. so i'm thinking it may be somewhere else, like my harness.
at this point, i'm running the cheap jammaboards harness but i replaced the +5 with 4 18 ga. wires, the +12 with two, and the ground with six all together. anyone have any ideas on this?
edit - per the manual online, i did try running it with the +5 at 5.15 on the board (measured at a rom) like it suggests, no change.
