Artwork available
WIP:
- 0.138u2: Angelo Salese fixed crash regression with clone Pang (bootleg, set 3).
- 15th November 2009: Mr. Do - Kiltron cleaned up Buster Bros. artwork, thanks to the BYOAC/CAG artwork.
- 0.122u1: Corrado Tomaselli verified some CPU clocks of original boards using a frequency counter, changed Pang M6295 clock from 990khz to 1Mhz.
- 0.119u4: David Haywood added clone Pang (bootleg, set 3). This bootleg has different sound hardware, the sound program is the same as 'rebus' by microhard. I suspect it was produced by the same company as 'spangbl'.
- 0.119u3: David Haywood added clone Pang (bootleg, set 2). Changed description of clone 'Pang (bootleg)' to 'Pang (bootleg, set 1)'.
- 19th March 2006: f205v dumped Pang (bootleg, set 2).
- 0.101u3: Fixed cpu1 roms addresses in clone (bootleg).
- 0.67: Changed description of clone 'Buster Bros (US)' to 'Buster Bros. (US)'.
- 0.63: All new, much better, YM2413 emulation [Jarek Burczynski].
- 0.61: New YM-2413 emulator [Fabio R. Schmidlin, Charles Mac Donald].
- 0.37b12: Standalone YM2413 emulator, giving much better sound in e.g. Pang [Mitsutaka Okazaki, Sean Young].
- 1st February 2001: Sean Young integrated Mitsutaka Okazaki's YM2413 emulator.
- 0.37b4: Added new cpu1 roms ($0, 80000).
- 0.36b1: Yasuhiro Ogawa added clone Pomping World (Japan). Added 128k sound1 rom.
- 0.35RC1: Brian Lewis and Andrea Mazzoleni added new tweaked VGA modes: 384x240 (for CPS1, Pang etc.), 384x256 (for Lode Runner etc.), 336x240 (for Gauntlet and other Atari games), 320x240 (for NeoGeo and others).
- 0.35b4: Added Pang (World) (Mitchell 1989) and clone Buster Bros. (US). Changed 'Pang' to clone 'Pang (bootleg)'. Renamed (pang) to (pangb). The old version, Pang (bootleg), contains opcodes and data decrypted separately, plus a few patches here and there. They disabled sound in attract mode (there isn't a setting to do that, unlike Buster Bros), changed the lives option from 1,2,3,4 to 1,3,4,6, and changed the copyright year from 1989 to 1990. Changed Z80 CPU1 clock speed to 8MHz.
- 0.34b5: Added YM-2413 (3579580 Hz) sound.
- 0.34b3: Juan Carlos Lorente added high score saving to Pang.
- 0.34b2: Paul Leaman added Pang and clone Buster Bros (Testdriver).
