0.142u5 [J. Wilke, ranger_lennier, gamerfan, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]


HardDisk required


WIP:

- 0.142u5: J. Wilke, ranger_lennier, gamerfan, Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added 'Arctic Thunder (v1.002)' (Midway Games 2001). Not working.

- 6th May 2011: Smitdogg - I picked up a couple of programmer adapters with some help from D. Medley, Solid State Laser UK and N. Francfort and was able to dump the BIOS for Arctic Thunder. I also got around to dumping the hard drive and some devs have gotten around to adding some discs I dumped in the past so the next release will probably be a big update to the old roms folder.

- 8th April 2011: Smitdogg - Thanks to a huge donation from gamerfan we got an Arctic Thunder computer, still with the original hard drive. We also picked up a replacement drive for it that is labeled as a later revision.
