0.80u1 [David Haywood]
WIP:
- 0.184: Lord Nightmare added Air Rescue's uPD7725 DSP and load its roms. Disabled for now, since the uPD7725 CPU core will need some features added before this can work. Added uPD7725 (8Mhz) CPU3.
- 0.163: Properly emulated the double PCB stack System 32 games with shared RAM bridge board (Air Rescue and F1 Exhaust Note). Previously these relied on a hack to make the code believe the 2nd stack was present but this caused issues, now they're correctly emulated as dual screen games without any hack. Allow individual x/y flipping on tilemaps, 2nd screen on Air Rescue needs this [David Haywood]. Added V60 (16107950 Hz) CPU3, Z80 (8053975 Hz) CPU4, 2x YM3438 (8053975 Hz) and RF5C68 (12500000 Hz) sound. Added mainpcb:screen (416x224, 60Hz) and slavepcb:screen (416x224, 60Hz).
- 0.155: ShouTime and The Dumping Union added clone Air Rescue (Japan). Added PCB info [David Haywood]. Changed parent description to 'Air Rescue (US)'.
- 0.140u2: Fixed rom names.
- 0.102u2: Anonymous made some minor cleanups to the System 32 driver. Air Rescue and F1 Exhaust Note now share common multi-PCB faking logic.
- 0.99u8: Anonymous fixed Air Rescue - Game now playable.
- 0.97u2: Replaced Paddle control with Stick, 2x buttons and 1x coin slot. Removed 'Unknown' dipswitches.
- 0.84u5: Replaced Stick controller with Paddle.
- 0.80u1: David Haywood added 'Air Rescue' (Sega 1992). Uses an unemulated math DSP and may also require emulation of two system32 boards at once, not an easy task.
- 8th March 2004: R. Belmont - Dumped Air Rescue. David Haywood - This looks pretty but the game seems to be protected and/or will require emulation of 2 system32 boards at once, not fun.
