0.131u2 [Siftware]


WIP:

- 3rd May 2013: David Haywood - IQ Pipe (AMT) run on cloned Sega System 16 hardware, without any sprites, basically Tetris style hardware. We've seen other Korean titles like Atomic Point and Snapper on similar cloned boards but these two AMT titles have another problem in the form of protection. I'm not actually sure what the protection involves, it could just be some convolute ROM/RAM mirrors with scrambled access, or something more complex, either way they don't do much at the moment. Beauty Block currently cycles through some random undressed women, IQ Pipe does nothing at all. Emulating them might just be a case of getting a good understanding of the 68000 code, it depends how nasty the protection actually is.

- 0.131u3: Swapped gfx1 roms ($0, 20000).

- 0.131u2: Siftware added 'IQ Pipe' (AMT 1991).
