San Guo Yan Yi: Huo Shao Chi Bi stuck in infinite loop

[Jacky412]

Hi I am on the latest megadrive core and the game "San Guo Yan Yi: Huo Shao Chi Bi" is not working correctly. It will load into the start menu but as soon as you press start it will stuck in an infinite loop looping the intro over and over and again.

This game works perfectly on real cartridge on real megadrive console.

This is a video of it working correctly on real megadrive console:

I think it's unlicensed game. They usually have protection chip. It has nothing to do with core itself, just such chip is not emulated. They use different chips for each game. Usually there is a patch for such dump of cartridge removing the protection.

It's an unofficial port of this game - https://segaretro.org/Tenchi_wo_Kurau_II:_Sekiheki_no_Tatakai - so you could at least experience what the original game is on MiSTer as well in the Saturn core for now :)

Thank you. If that is the case I shall close this issue then.
