info

0.62 [David Haywood]

WIP:

0.78u1: Changed visible area to 318x240 and changed region sound2 to sound1.
30th December 2003: Quench fixed the OKIM6295 sound chip banking in Diver Boy, fixed the sprites from being clipped at the right side of the screen and the horizontal resolution.
0.62: David Haywood added Diver Boy (Electronic Devices 1992). Sound doesn't seem entirely correct, but it might just be this bad in the original.
18th July 2002: David Haywood sent in a driver for Diver Boy, which works fine except sound isn't emulated yet.
