As long as you remove the resistor to kill the charging circuit that’s fine

I have recently been doing some repairs on some 4 slot boards and had a board where the multi had major sound issues on KoF98 and freezing/rebooting along with graphics glitches on Pulstar
The board had a backup RAM fault and this has been replaced, but I also did a full recap while it was on the bench
I have now had the multi running KoF98 for about 2 hours and Pulstar about the same with all 4 slots populated (multi in slot 1 with Thrash Rally, Zed Blade and Metal Slug 2 populating the other slots)
Post recap - it has had no issues whatsoever. I changed between games and went back into the menu to load different games to try and break it and it’s still going
tl;dr if you haven’t, even if you don’t think it needs it - recap your board and see if it helps with issues with the multi cart

How do you save game states in game? I feel
Like missed a step somewhere.

You do not save states in the game

So how do you save game progress? My cab has working memory pcb and memory card. It works with my other carts
It should be working the same way. How each game saves depends on the game software. Most games don't ask you to save until the counter runs down to 0 on the continue screen. The multi itself has no say on if the game will save or not.
And maybe add definitve names for the recently released homebrews like Shinobi and GoldenAxe

I'd make it more dynamic, instead of preset, never know what the future holds

I'm trying the multi mvs but I have an issue with sound of metal slug. The mobo is a mv1fz single slot with original bios and the audio suddenly disappears. I tried 3 different micro sd samsung 16 gb but the problem persists. The voltage on the board is 4.95 v. Do you have any suggestions?
lower the voltage more, down to 4.7 even slowly in small steps and see how it goes.

I decreased the voltage of the power supply of my aero city to the minimum (4.75v). I tried to gradually increase it up to 5v but unfortunately no changes... the problem persists,
the audio suddenly disappears and then reappears after a few minutes.

If the MVS still works try going down below 4.75v until it stops booting. I have the feeling that it will work if you lower it more.
Which version of FW do you have? The one that came from factory or did you upgrade something?

Yes, that's correct, they come with the latest firm.
Keep lowering the power level please and let us know how it goes.
