additional information
info 0.35b3 [Russell Nash]

WIP:
  • 0.127: Replaced A-board PLDs (prg1 and sou1) with (prg2).
  • 0.126u5: Added A-board PLDs (buf1, ioa1, prg1, rom1 and sou1).
  • 0.125u9: Added clones Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (bootleg with PIC16c57, set 1) and (bootleg with PIC16c57, set 2). David Haywood added rom loading for the Cadillacs and Dinosaurs sets with PICs. No good dumps of the PICs exist, and this is mainly for reference so that we don't forget the graphic rom loading on them. They don't work. They're basically the same set from different PCBs, so one will probably be removed eventually.
  • 0.94u1: Aaron Giles fixed '3 speaker problem' with Qsound. Removed 3rd sound channel.
  • 0.93u1: Replaced YM2151 sound with Q-Sound (4MHz).
  • 0.93: Replaced QSound with YM2151 (3579580 Hz). Added 3rd sound channel.
  • 0.63: Added clone Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (US 930201).
  • 13th December 2002: Tim added a USA version of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs.
  • 0.36b12: Changed Z80 CPU2 clock speed to 6MHz.
  • 0.36b11: Replaced Custom sound with QSound (4MHz).
  • 0.35: Added Custom sound.
  • 0.35RC1: Santeri Saarimaa added clone Cadillacs Kyouryuu-Shinseiki (Japan). Added 'Freeze' dipswitch.
  • 0.35b4: Added Z80 (4MHz) CPU2.
  • 0.35b3: Russell Nash added Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (World) (Capcom 1993).
  • 13th February 1999: More progress on the CPS1 driver. Some of the later CPS1 games utilizing the Q-sound system are now working (such as Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, Punisher and Warriors of Fate), and a few minor bugs have been fixed. No sound though, because the Q-sound roms are encrypted. Information about 'Kabuki' encryption system is very welcome.
  • 12th February 1999: Russell Nash has added these CPS1 games: Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, Warriors of Fate and Muscle Bomber Duo.

- TRIVIA -


Released in February 1993.


This game is known in Japan as "Cadillacs Kyouryuu Shin Seiki".


This game is much famous by the name "Mustapha's game" (the main character of the game) in Asia.


Characters based upon the comic 'Xenozoic Tales' created in the late eighties by Mark Schultz.


There is a modified version of this game (hack?), in which certain gun(s) have unlimited ammo.


Pony Canyon / Scitron released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Tenchi Wo Kurau II : G.S.M. Capcom 7 - PCCB-00133) on 20/08/1993.


- UPDATES -


During the storyline, the Japanese version has a scrolling effect on the text. All other versions have no such effect.


The US version is slightly different, it has the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" screen.


- TIPS AND TRICKS -


On the 2nd and 5th stages, there appears a large dinosaur called a Shivat that's sleeping when first encountered. Try to keep the human enemies from whacking them to wake them up. While the Shivats do attack the enemies, they can also cause trouble (and injuries) for the players.


There are also some pterodactyl-like flying creatures that need to be struck by jumping to reach them. Whenever you drain the energy from any menacing dinosaurs, they slightly change color, then become harmless.


On the 3rd stage, where you're driving Jack's Cadillac, try to dodge the grenades thrown by the stage's motorcycle-riding boss, Hogg, while crashing into him with the car. If you're good at this, you should be able to at least reduce his energy to the yellow level, the lowest for the enemies.


On the 6th stage, there's 2 points at where you need to be careful not to be stomped on by the legs of a brontosaurus. But, try to lure some of the other enemies underneath them instead!
