- 0.129u4: Changed Custom sound to Pleiads Custom.

- 16th November 2008: Guru - I recently picked up a pile of junk for spares and repairs from a local friend. It turned out there was quite a bit of interesting stuff in this lot. As far as I can make out, I got Pleiads.

- 0.125u9: Couriersud fixed Fatal error in Pleiads.

- 0.122u7: Pleiads updates [Couriersud]: Video timing from schematics. Palette from schematics (resnet.h). No more colortable. Changed 8085A CPU1 clock speed to 5.5MHz.

- 0.36RC2: Added 2x TMS36XX sound.

- 12th March 2000: Juergen Buchmueller sent in a sound core for TMS36xx sound chips emulation and modified Phoenix, Pleiads, Naughty Boy, Pop Flamer and Monster Bash to use it.

- 0.13: Richard Davies provided a new Phoenix/Pleiads driver with partial sound support.

- 0.10: I had broken Pleiades, fixed [Nicola Salmoria]. That's the drawback of emulating more than 60 games, I can't check them all before releasing a new version.

- 0.07: Added Pleiads (Centuri 1981)). Game is playable with wrong colors and no sound. Control: Arrows = Move around CTRL = Fire and ALT = Teleport. This runs on the same hardware as Phoenix.
