0.99u1 [Mathis Rosenhauer]


NOTE:

- The original ROM images for Top Gunner (c) 1986 Exidy have been made available for free, non-commercial use. Authorization from H.R. Kaufmann, president of Xidy.


WIP:

- 0.150: Modernized 74148 TTL. This still needs updating to DEVCB/DEVCB2 [Osso].

- 0.147: Some meaningless AM_RAM_WRITE in Top Gunner driver [hap].

- 0.144u7: Aaron Giles fixed Top Gunner driver assert in debug build.

- 0.141u3: Split part of the driver include into a separate multi-driver include file (audio\exidy440.h) [Atari Ace].

- 0.138u1: Changed description to 'Top Gunner (Exidy)'.

- 0.138: hap fixed Top Gunner, which crashes MAME after INSERT COIN/GAME START.

- 0.135u4: Aaron Giles converted 74148 TTL implementation to devices.

- 0.129u4: Changed 'Custom' sound to 'Exidy 440 CVSD'.

- 0.129: Phil Bennett fixed game hangs in Top Gunner. MooglyGuy added savestate support to the TTL74148 device.

- 0.123u6: Zsolt Vasvari fixed Top Gunner crashes.

- 0.122u8: Changed M6809 CPU2 clock speed to 811200 Hz and Custom audio to 50700 Hz.

- 0.113u3: Derrick Renaud fixed analog controls in Top Gunner by adding back a faux VBLANK timing.

- 0.102: Top Gunner several updates [Mathis Rosenhauer]: Removed shift register since it just seems to be needed to compensate for different DAC speeds. Added 8254 PIT from PC emulation. Added state saving.

- 0.100u3: Mathis Rosenhauer improved speed in Top Gunner by pre-decoding the vector processor microcode. Also added a shift register to produce the LCD-like look of the score and other numbers.

- 0.99u8: Mathis Rosenhauer fixed spurious vectors in Top Gunner.

- 0.99u1: Mathis Rosenhauer added 'Top Gunner' (Exidy 1986).

History


Arcade Video game published 33 years ago:

Top Gunner (c) 1986 Exidy.

- TECHNICAL -

Top Gunner was played sitting down in a full cockpit-style motion cabinet. The motion of the player’s seat followed the action of the flight simulator-style gameplay, providing the player a unique, immersive arcade experience.

The player interacted with the machine via a dual-axis flight yoke, a throttle lever, and the standard coin slot, start, and fire buttons.

- TRIVIA -

Top Gunner is said to be the last vector graphic game produced for the arcades.
