MAME Info:

0.70u5 [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]

0.70u4 [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]


WIP:

- 0.122u7: Changed M6802 CPU2 clock speed to 3MHz.

- 0.115u3: Improvements to the R2D Tank driver [Zsolt Vasvari]: Fixed colors, based on the Red Tank flyer. Added AY8910's, sounds fine, but how exactly they are hooked up to the PIA is not fully understood. Hooked up CRTC properly. Added 2x AY-3-8910A (1MHz) sound and save state support. Changed visible area to 256x256 and VSync to 57Hz.

- 0.70u5: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added R2D Tank (Sigma Ent 1980). Colours are derived from Tim's screenshots and hardware is similar to Sigma's Spiders.

- 0.70u4: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added R2D Tank (Testdriver). TODO: Inputs, interrupt seems coin related and is currently wrong, sound CPU.

- 21st June 2003: Pierpaolo Prazzoli sent in a preliminary driver for R2D Tank.

- 16th January 2002: Dave Grohowski dumped R2D Tank (c) 1980 by Sigma/Orca.
