0.102u5 [Tomasz Slanina]
WIP:
- 0.173: Replaced Z80 CPU1 with Z80 SegaCrypt.
- 0.168: Osso fixed sprites in Top Roller. Note: Top Roller is the only machine in the driver which has a bigger spriteram (0xdf instead of 0x1f). This was overlooked when the Top Roller video functions where merged in cclimber.
- 0.123u3: Fixed gfx1/2/3 rom and proms loading. Changed visible area to 224x256.
- 12th May 2006: Guru - Top Roller (Jaleco) arrived from Japan. The game is not specifically needed, but I will dump and document it anyway.
- 0.105u2: Fixes to Top Roller [Tomasz Slanina]: Correct colors. Fixed gfx bugs. Better audio (added rom with samples). There's still minor problem with fg text layer colors. Added Samples sound. Added sound1 rom and proms ($0, 20, 40, 60, 80 and a0 - big sprites, sprites+fg, sprites, 2x bg and unknown). Changed visible area to 224x240 and palettesize to 160 colors.
- 17th April 2006: Tomasz Slanina - Correct (almost) colors in Top Roller - there are still minor probs (text layer).
- 0.102u5: Tomasz Slanina added 'Top Roller' (Jaleco 1983).
- 20th November 2005: Tomasz Slanina - Added background and sprites, redumped one gfx ROM (was bad).
- 18th November 2005: Tomasz Slanina - First screen. Game is working, but background and sprites are missing.
- 14th October 2005: Tomasz Slanina - Just got a Top Roller PCB for rom redump, hardware analyse and protection break.
- 22nd May 2003: Pierpaolo Prazzoli sent in a preliminary driver for D-Day (Jaleco) and Top Roller, but neither of them work at all.
- 27th January 2000: ShinobiZ with help from Coy dumped Top Roller.
