TODO:

- This board uses the well known 052109 051962 custom gfx chips, however unlike all other games they fetch gfx data from RAM. The gfx ROMs are memory mapped on cpu B and the needed parts are copied to RAM at run time. To handle this efficiently in MAME, some changes would be required to the tilemap system and to vidhrdw/konamiic.c. For the time being, I'm kludging my way in. There's also something wrong in the way tile banks are implemented in konamiic.c. They don't seem to be used by this game.


NOTES:

- Hardware: Konami GX945


WIP:

- 0.36b13: Added gradius3.c driver and vidhrdwgradius3.c.

- 21st December 1999: Nicola Salmoria sent in a driver for Gradius 3.
