0.37b1 [Luca Elia]


WIP:

- 0.143u2: Brian Troha implemented coin mode 1 & 2 for Thundercade / Twin Formation.

- 0.133u1: Renamed (tndrcadj) to (tndrcadej).

- 0.130u2: Phil Bennett fixed music problems in Thundercade.

- 0.122u2: Brian Troha added Guru's README info for Thundercade. Fixed rom names. Changed YM2203 clock speed to 4MHz.

- 29th December 2007: Guru - Thundercade... useless, it matches the existing US set exactly. I measured and corrected some clocks for MAME though.

- 21st December 2007: Guru - A huge box arrived today. That 19.75kg box looks mighty impressive, although I'm not sure that all of it is going to be useful. Some could be alt. versions but most don't work so I'll need to dump all of these before I can tell exactly what they are. It contains Thundercade (Taito, Romstar USA License, original) and others. Thanks to Tingoes for sending these out.

- 0.67: Changed description of clone (Japan) to 'Tokusyu Butai U.A.G. (Japan)'.

- 0.65: Fixed YM2203/YM3812 sound in Thundercade.

- 0.37b9: Stereo support in Thundercade.

- 0.37b5: Added clone 'Tokusyu Butai UAG (Japan)'. Changed parent description to 'Thundercade / Twin Formation'. Added missing gf1 roms. Replaced the 2x AY-8910 with YM2203 (2MHz) and YM3812 (4MHz). Changed M65C02 CPU2 clock speed to 2MHz and visible area to 224x384. Added dipswitches 'Allow Continue', 'Licensed To' and 'Coin A/B'.

- 6th July 2000: Luca Elia added Thundercade, Caliber 50, Dragon Unit and Blandia to the Seta driver.

- 0.37b1: Luca Elia added 'Thundercade' (Seta 1988).

- 1st April 2000: Guru - Dumped Thundercade (Seta).

- 2nd May 1999: Ernesto Corvi sent in a very preliminary Thundercade driver (just to fix some quirks in the debugger).
