Summary 04598: All sets in kyugo.c: Wrong gfx after a reset when the screen is flipped in cocktail mode.
Description I report my old post to describe the problem and to see the screenshot (however it is easily reproducible).

http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=271709&page=1&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&vc=1

This line at the end of MACHINE_RESET (kyugo) should fix the problem:

kyugo_flipscreen_w (space, 0, 1);
Steps To Reproduce - Change cabinet dipswitch to 'Cocktail'
- Insert some coins
- Press 2 (start 2 players mode)
- Wait for player 1 to die
- Press F3 (game reset) while the scren is flipped
Additional Information Note: I wrote 0.144u4 in the (required) version field because I didn't notice in which version it happens actually.

I appreciate the bug report. It is unfortunate, though, that it cannot be considered an emulation bug. (Cocktail issues with F3 Reset).

Reset is not a guaranteed action. There are many arcade PCBs which do not have an explicit 'reset' button, which is what F3 does. The long-standing rule regarding RESET BUGS is that only those which crash or hang the emulation are considered. A full reset (SHIFT+F3) is the same as fully powering down the machine and restarting it quickly - bugs that come about using that are reportable.

http://mametesters.org/rules.html under "Reset and Pause bugs are not bugs unless they crash"

Closing at this time.

There were a number of other issues which I believe hap addressed in fixes to source from your discovery at the .info post and that is appreciated!
