MAME Info:

0.84 [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]


Bugs:

- Black screen when you continue on 4 stage. umbrio (ID 03232)


WIP:

- 0.133u1: Brian Troha added DIP locations to Thunder Hoop.

- 0.125u1: David Haywood fixed default dipswitches on Thunder Hoop to give more than 1 life.

- 0.103u3: Pierpaolo Prazzoli, Mike Coates and Brian Troha fixed Thunder Hoop - Game now playable. Changed description to 'Thunder Hoop (Ver. 1)'. Added decryption table rom. Fixed rom names. Added dipswitches 'Player Controls', 'Cabinet', '2 Credits to Start, 1 to Continue', 'Free Play' and 8x 'Unknown'.

- 15th January 2006: Pierpaolo Prazzoli - This is not really my WIP, but it's a WIP from Mike Coates, who extracted the decryption table in Thunder Hoop, but he asked me to fix the graphics issues. It's not yet playable because it crashes when you're going to start a game. Update: It's actually working, it crashed because sound rom banking was broken and I didn' test it when I fixed it.

- 0.84: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added Thunder Hoop (Gaelco 1992).

- 14th June 2004: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added Squash and Thunder Hoop to the Gaelco driver but neither of them work because of encrypted video RAM and missing DS5002FP code.
