SETUP:
  • The first time you run the game, it will say 'ERROR ON CARTRIDGE'. Press SERVICE (Key 9) and then TEST (F2) to get into the ST-V TEST MENU. Select 'SYSTEM ASSIGNMENTS' with SERVICE and press TEST to proceed, then set 'CABINET TYPE' to 1P (one player) and EXIT the test menu.
WIP:
  • 0.128u3: Angelo Salese added some missing alpha blending effects, Pro Mahjong Kiwame S title screen needs it but it doesn't work yet due to other problems (still investigating).
  • 4th November 2008: Angelo Salese - Currently working at some ST-V bitmap issues. Once that this is done I would like to fix the flames on title screen of Pro Mahjong Kiwame S.
  • 0.96: Angelo Salese added a number of ST-V improvements. 'Pro Mahjong Kiwame S' is now playable.
  • 0.90u2: Angelo Salese reversed back to the old VDP-1 PTM's "draw by request" implementation causing sprite flickering in Mahjong KiwameS.
  • 0.74u2: Added Pro Mahjong Kiwame S (Athena 1995).
  • 0.63: Added Pro Mahjong Kiwame S (Testdriver).
