0.162 [Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]


HardDisk required


WIP:

- 0.170: Virtual Pool still has random lockups too unfortunately, I guess the previous protection fix wasn't complete, can't be considered working. Marked game as NOT WORKING.

- 0.165: Ted Green updated sequence generator initialization for Virtual Pool - Game now playable. Added separte sequence generator for Eagle 1 hardware. Added additional interrupt clearing for IDE controller (machine\iteagle_fpga.c).

- 0.164: Ted Green added rasterizers for Virtual Pool (video\voodoo.c), but promoted game not to working state due to lock-ups.

- 0.162: Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added 'Virtual Pool' (Incredible Technologies 1998). Organized BIOS for iteagle 1 boards (Virtual Pool) [Ted Green].

- 23rd August 2010: Smitdogg - We won Virtual Pool. All the money is spent and then some so if you feel the urge to donate, don't fight it.

- 21st August 2010: Smitdogg - I sold more dumped stuff so we have the money to bid on Virtual Pool now. I'm kind of up in the air about it, leaning more toward getting the others for decapping since we will be probably grandpas by the time it's running full speed but ranger_lennier wants Virtual Pool more and he's our biggest contributor and money talks.

- 19th August 2010: Smitdogg - I found out the Virtual Pool game runs on GT Fore hardware. I thought it was older than that... GT Fore hardware might not be emulated for a long while, so that makes it less attractive. On the other hand, it's rare as hell and might be our last shot, especially if it uses a hard drive.

- 19th August 2010: Smitdogg - There is a super rare Virtual Pool cab up for sale that we can pick up and dump if we get donations. Virtual Pool was made by Incredible Technologies and never went into full production. It's essentially a prototype were only a few were made and this might be our last shot at it. The Virtual Pool is starting at $500.
