I immediately noticed some problems on the sprites

Transparent objects and shadows were solid and some sprites had glitches

Konami maskroms are known to be unreliable so I ran immediately the maskrom test reveling that rom @25g was faulty.

Before desoldering I checked also the custom underneath which sometims has pins lifted but it was good.

Upon a close inspection I saw some rust on 3 pins of the maskrom @25g which in my opinion could be the reason of the fault

Therefore I decided to desolder it and resolder a 27c160 programmed with the correct file
