additional information
info 0.97u4 [Aaron Giles]

0.36b4 [Olivier Galibert]

WIP:
- 0.124u3: Changed description of clone 'Puzznic (Italy)' to 'Puzznic (Italian bootleg)'. David Haywood properly marked clone Puzznic (Italy) as a bootleg and disabled the MCU simulation on it, it has it's own internally. Note: This set is a bootleg, it uses a converted board without the MCU and has a hacked copyright message. The tilemap data for one of the girls appears to be corrupt, however this is correct, the bootleggers overwrote part of the data with the expected response sequence from the MCU in order to simulate it.
  • 0.122u2: Changed Z80 CPU1 clock speed to 6665280 Hz and YM2203 to 3330000 MHz.
  • 0.119u1: Corrado Tomaselli added clone Puzznic (Italy).
  • 0.97u4: Changed (Japan set 2) to Puzznic (World). Renamed (puzznic) to (puzznicj) and (puzznica) to (puzznic).
  • 0.97u3: Aaron Giles added Puzznic (Japan set 2).
  • 0.37b11: Added dipswitches 'Coinage', 'Difficulty', 'Terms of Replay' and 'Unused'.
  • 0.37b6: Changed Z80 CPU1 clock speed to 6MHz.
  • 0.37b3: Added dipswitches 'Cabinet', 'Flip Screen', 'Demo Sounds', 'Coin B', 'Retries', 'Bombs', 'Girls', 'Reset Timer on Retry' and 'Retry'.
  • 0.36b4: Olivier Galibert added Puzznic (Japan) (Taito 1989).
  • 26th August 1999: Olivier Galibert sent in a Taito system L driver with support for American Horseshoes, Cachat, Champion Wrestler, Fighting Hawk, Palamedes, Plotting, Puzznic and Raimais. None of them have sound though, and some have graphic bugs.
