Got a strange graphics problem with Fighting Hawk?

This isn't a LB problem but thought I'd ask here as we've got a very knowledgeable bunch on this forum.

One of my favourite games is Fighting Hawk. For some reason, on my latest cabinet build, the game has massive graphical problems (see screenshot)

This is running on both MAME 0.220 and 0.222 (as I upgraded MAME thinking that it could be the issue).

However, if I run the same ROM on MAME 0.201 it's fine.

This isn't an LB problem as I've tried to run it just through MAME with the same results. I've also turned off the bezel in case that was an issue and it's the same problem.

I've compared the mame.ini files between the versions and there's not a lot of differences.

I'm a bit stuck? Has anyone ever seen anything similar to this? Can anyone advise anything else I could try? Or is it just that Fighting Hawk is broken in the latest few releases?

Thanks

I'm on MAME 0.222 and i get the same. I assume there was regression for that machine in 0.222, this does happen as emulation is improved it brings in previously unseen flaws. Just the nature of something that is iterated on every month, one thing may be fixed, but the knock on effect of that may break something else.

Hi Neil

This is resolved in the 0.223 version (https://mametesters.org/view.php?id=7696)

A guy on Reddit (star_jump) kindly responded to my post on there. Just thought I'd let you know in case it was a game you enjoyed too :)
