Hey... just picked up an upright Virtua Racer lastnight. Can looks great and game plays fine but there is a graphics issue. Two issues that I see. First, the "background layer" of graphics (grass and sky) seem to be fine. Colors are good and they are aligned correctly. But the "top layer" of graphics (i.e. the actual gameplay) is shifted a couple inches to the left. You can see the blank right side of the screen for that layer of the graphics. Additionally, the colors in that top layer of graphics is all screwed up. The road might be fine in a couple of screens but as you drive it turns all sorts of strange colors. The same with the trees and other off the road things. See attached pics.
It was recommended to me to re-seat all the chips on the board which I did and it had no effect. oh the above listed issues. Any other ideas or other things I should check. If not I'm assuming there is a corrupted rom or a bad connection on the game pcb. So, does anyone know what rom chip might be giving me this hard time and where I could find the file to have this chip burned for me? If not, I'm probably looking at just needing to pick up a new boardset, correct? Anyone have one for sale/trade at a reasonable price? What is a reasonable price for this boardset?
