Updated issue summary.
These are test files written while Haze been been trying to work out emulation issues for the Seibu COP (co-processor) for these games. They take the form as:
copdat_(setname).data
copdat_(setname).table2
copdat_(setname).table3
copdat_(setname).table4

yes, test files are being written.. they're potentially useful for working out protection related features. I don't see the problem, the games are all 'non-working' anyway.

Not a bug. Non-working drivers are free to write log files or whatever even in full releases.
