info

0.34b5 [Ernesto Corvi]

Bugs:

kingofb, ringkin3, ringkinw: The "game over" Screen in king of boxer is not displayed correctly. Quicks (ID 00494)
Clone ringkin3: Show Japanese text in VS screen (due to corrupt dump?). J.J.Boy (ID 02164)

WIP:

0.123u2: Changed palettesize to 272 colors.
0.122u4: Robiza fixed weird sprite priority problems (kingofb37b6gre).
0.106u12: MASH added plds ($0, 100 - pal12h6-vh02.bin and pal14h4-vh07.bin) to King of Boxer (English).
0.95: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added proper PROM decoding for Ring King (Woodplace license).
0.93u2: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added clone Ring King (US, Woodplace license). Added missing gfx3 rom ($a000) to clone (US set 3).
24th May 2001: Guru fixed the clone ringkin2 machine definition for it to work properly.
0.35fix: Fixed proms in clones Ring King (set 1), (set 2) and (set 3).
0.35RC1: Removed clone 'King of Boxer (Japanese?)'.
0.35b13: Added clone Ring King (set 2). Renamed (ringkin2) to (ringkin3).
0.34RC1: Dave W. added hiscore save in King of Boxer.
0.34b5: Ernesto Corvi added King of Boxer (English) (Woodplace 1985) and clones King of Boxer (Japanese?), Ring King (set 1) and Ring King (set 2). Due to a missing color PROM, Ring King colors are wrong. ringkin2 uses the King of Boxer PROMs, but they are probably wrong. One of the ringkin2 gfx ROMs is bad.
