0.60 [Aaron Giles]
WIP:
- 0.149u1: Brian Troha fixed clone World Class Bowling (v1.3J, Japan) - Game now playable. Added a note about the Japanese World Class Bowling trackball input is read at an 45 degree offset compared to normal orientation. Note: The 45 degree reads for WCB (v1.3 Japan) could most likely be corrected via a modified read routine that takes into account the 45 degree rotation and separates it out.
- 0.147u4: Yohji, Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added clone World Class Bowling (v1.3J, Japan). Trackball is 45 degrees offset in this set. You have to coin up and play 1 game right away for it to work.
