additional information
info 0.35b8 [Carlos A. Lozano, Phil Stroffolino]

SERVICE MODE:
  • To enter service mode hold P1 Start during ROM test.
WIP:
  • 0.127u2: Nicola Salmoria replaced ASO roms (which were possibly from a bootleg) with split ones that are definitely from an original. Renamed roms across sets accordingly. Stephane Humbert fixed dipswitches and inputs for ASO and clones Alpha Mission and Arian Mission. Nicola Salmoria fixed palette decoding of early SNK games (ASO). The least significan bits were assigned incorrectly.
  • 0.127u1: SNK rewrite [Nicola Salmoria]: Fixed sprite-sprite priorities. Moved ASO from HAL21 to SNK driver. Removed hacks and fixed background color. Changed Z80 CPU1/2 clock speeds to 3250000 Hz. Fixed gfx rom loading.
  • 0.109u4: Brian Troha added clone Arian Mission. Fixed rom names.
  • 0.106u12: MASH added plds ($0, 200, 400 - pal16l8a-1.bin, pal16l8a-2.bin and pal16r6a.bin) to Aso.
  • 0.93: Dave Widel added clone Alpha Mission.
  • 0.72: Acho A. Tang improved scrolling and color and fixed music and sound effects being cut short.
  • 31st July 2000: Guru - Dumped Alpha Mission (Redump, previous dump was bad).
  • 0.36b12: Removed 4x ADPCM.
  • 2nd May 1999: Phil Stroffolino finally got the correct colors for ASO, TNK3 and Athena.
  • 0.35b8: Carlos A. Lozano and Phil Stroffolino added ASO (Armored Scrum Object) (SNK 1985).
