- 16th August 2014: Luca Elia - I rewrote the bmcpokr skeleton driver to bring to fruition the "unknown poker game" in there, developed by Taiwanese BMC and running on their own custom hardware. It turned out to be a poker-themed gambling game whose Chinese title should be romanized, I'm told, as Dongfang Shenlong (Eastern Dragon). The hardware features two tilemaps and a pixel layer, all with per-line horizontal and vertical scrolling (used in the dog race screen above, for instance). Plus some mild protection and a random number generator whose emulation is only sketched at the moment. This is similar to other BMC games (Konkyuu no Hoshi, King of Football and PoPo Bear), so it might help with the consolidation of their emulation, which is still preliminary. Thanks to Guru, dyq & bnathan.
