you're a legend! Congrats man. I can't wait to see what you are going to do next!

Downloaded the latest version and tested it on my MODE. The new features are much appreciated, but I still encountered freezing. This time on the second level.

with the latest build using Start i get pause screen but after pressing Start again i cannot enter debug menu.... any idea?

strange, I can not identify the dependence of freezes, for some reason not all freezes
I personally completed the game twice yesterday, on an easy level and on a hard one without restarting the console

It doesn't. It just pauses and unpauses. In this video however, he is able to pause and enable Debug menu with two X + Y presses.

Maybe the best solution is to map the Debug menu input to something else? Like, pressing another button like A or something else with the game paused. I recall this was actually the way to bring the pause menu option in other Metal Slug games.

Also, what's supposed to be the default number of lives per credit of this game? For sure it's not 14 lives, seems way too much.

Oh right, so it's not enabled by default. This way, I suppose it's Start to pause, then Start again to enter Debug menu? And then I suppose Start again to unpause.

Any easy way to do this with the .cdi release too?

He has freeplay enabled so we do not have limited lives, not sure but maybe the limit was 14 credits? I think we have to adjust this with the debug menu enabled. Would be cool to add credits with a button combo.

Thanks Megavolt85
I've burned the image in x8 mode and the disc failed to be recognized.
I'm trying now in X2 to see if this make any difference.
I assume it's an auto boot cdi.

By the way, i'vve tried the CDI version with Redream and it crashed immediatelly (Redream could be the reason though)

START->pause
START->debug menu
B->return to game

Thank you it works fine. Now you can easily disable autofire (can you share the hex edit to have it default off ?) and also easily restart Dreamcast and enter gdemu menu using the last option on debug menu. looking forward your the tutorial on how to map buttons.
