History:

Fun World Quiz (c) 198? Fun World.


Insertion of ATS 5 (Austrian Schilling coin) yields 5 credits. For 1 credit a player receives 500 points. At each question a player can bet 100, 500 or all points. If a question is answered correctly, the bet is added to the points. If a player reaches more than 2500 points after 5 questions, he gets bonus questions. The game is over after an incorrect answer.

MAME Info:

0.137u1 [Roberto Fresca, David Haywood]


< German >


WIP:

- 0.137u3: Roberto Fresca replaced the Fun World Quiz bad ROMs with good ones. Fixed graphics and colors and cleaned-up inputs. Added new gfx1 rom ($c000) and prom ($0).

- 13th April 2010: Roberto Fresca - Again, thanks to 9ofzeven that kindly loaned his board, and Team Europe that got a successful redump, I was able to fix the Funworld Quiz graphics and colors. The bipolar PROM contains a dual palette, that is addressed by PLDs. The first one (seems the official one) is meant for dark-gray background, and the second one for dark-blue background. Now the game is accurately preserved/emulated.

- 0.137u1: Roberto Fresca and David Haywood added Fun World Quiz (austrian) (Funworld 198?). Needs proper banking, and both graphics and bipolar PROM redumps. Roberto Fresca added Fun World Quiz description and hardware notes. More improvements to Funworld driver [Roberto Fresca, David Haywood]: Improved inputs. Proper handlers and banking for Fun World Quiz questions. Complete dipswitches with DIP locations. Promoted game to working state. Added bookkeeping instructions notes.

- 16th March 2010: Roberto Fresca - Thanks to 9ofzeven that kindly dumped his Fun World Quiz board, I was able to add this rare Funworld title. The game is meant to work as "amusement", with high scores like another regular arcade. You can set it as "bet mode", allowing to choose the amount of points to play, but can't be turned to gambling mode (no payout, keyout, etc) for pubs, etc. It's running in a triple board. Main board with graphics, sound, RAM, PROM, PAL, etc. A CPU board with custom CPU based on 65c02, and a ROM board where the questions are stored. Special thanks to David Haywood, that kindly hooked the questions banking handlers. The game has complete inputs + dipswitches and is working properly. Unfortunately one graphics ROM seems to be rotten and the bipolar PROM wasn't dumped yet. So... Just hooked the good graphics ROM to keep the game text readable. Hence it looks so bad. Also I'm currently working in the Funworld button-lamps system, adding fixed lamps layouts by game, instead of a generic one by default.
