0.175 [ShouTime, The Dumping Union]
0.81u4 [Guru]
WIP:
- 0.181: ShouTime and The Dumping Union added clone Side by Side 2 Evoluzione RR (Ver 3.1 J). Renamed (sidebs2j) to (sidebs2ja).
- 0.175: ShouTime and The Dumping Union added Side by Side 2 (Ver 2.6 OK). Renamed (sidebs2) to (sidebs2u).
- 0.148u3: Added the sub title Evoluzione for the Japanese set of Side by Side 2. Correct the rom labels for it as well. This is supported by both eBay auctions, flyers and the game itself shows the sub title as well as speaks it during the initial title sequence [Brian Troha]. Changed description of clone (Ver 2.4 J) to 'Side by Side 2 Evoluzione (Ver 2.4 J)'.
- 0.146u4: Added vertical 2-way Joystick. Removed buttons 4 and 5.
- 0.146u3: Give Taito JC about 10% optimization on 3D scenes. Those flickering texture palette glitches (sidebs/sidebs2 especially) is a rounding issue, big improvement now [hap]. Added buttons 4 and 5 and coin slot 2. Fixed rom names. Changed description to 'Side by Side 2 (Ver 2.6 A)' and clone (Japan) to 'Side by Side 2 (Ver 2.4 J)'.
- 0.143u4: Changed description to 'Side by Side 2 (North/South America)'.
- 0.124u4: Changed description to 'Side By Side 2 (North/South America)'.
- 0.124u2: Yasuhiro Ogawa added clone Side By Side 2 (Japan).
- 0.111u2: Added Paddle and Pedal.
- 17th December 2006: Ville Linde - I've been working on fixing bugs in the TMS320C51 core and trying to understand the 3D hardware in Taito's JC System. So far I've managed to figure out the polygon format and texture mapping. As a result Side by Side 2 already shows the road polygons and some other stuff.
- 0.106u9: Fixed cpu2 rom loading.
- 0.105u1: Added TMS32051 (50MHz) CPU4. Fixed gfx1/2 rom loading. Changed palettesize to 65536 colors.
- 0.97u5: Ville Linde added very basic 68040 support to the 68000 core. Replaced 68020 with 68040. Added MC68HC11 (4MHz) MCU. Changed visible area to 512x384.
- 0.81u4: Added 'Side By Side 2' (Taito 1997).
- 2nd September 2003: Guru - Side By Side 2 (Taito 1997, Taito JC hardware) arrived from Pelle.
