WIP:
- 0.137u2: Stephane Humbert fixed dipswitches and inputs (after verification of the Z80 code) in Moonwar and clone.
- 0.137u1: Lord Nightmare imported the same implementation of Moon War proto's spinner to moon war 2; works much more smoothly now. Fixed very minor occasional glitches in moonwar/moonwara spinners caused by IPT_DIAL crossing the 0x00<->0xFF border. Added conditional Hyperflip button to Moonwar, only seems present in upright mode? (in cocktail mode the same input is used by player 2 for a different button).
- 1st December 2008: Mr. Do - Addy continues his hot streak. First, we have Moon War bezel, an early game from Stern.
- 0.125u5: Couriersud moved Moonwar and clone Moonwar (older) to the Galaxian driver. Added Discrete sound. Changed visible area to 224x768 and palettesize to 32 colors.
- 0.109: Changed palettesize to 99 colors (32 for characters, 64 for stars, 2 for bullets and 1 for bg).
- 0.65: Removed 3rd player.
- 0.53: Changed palettesize from 100 to 98 colors.
- 0.37b16: Changed description to 'Moonwar' and clone '(set 2)' to '(older)'. Added 'Cabinet' dipswitch.
- 0.37b12: Changed parent and clone descriptions to 'Moon War'. Renamed (moonwar2) to (moonwar) and (monwar2a) to (moonwara).
- 0.34b6: Nicola Salmoria added clone Moon War II (set 2). Changed parent description to 'Moon War II (set 1)'. Known issues: Input ports are wrong in (set 2).
- 0.34b1: Brad Oliver added Moon War II (Stern 1981).
