Revision as of 20:13, 26 January 2008

This page is designed to allow for a quick look over all the drivers with a GAME_NOT_WORKING flag by giving, as much as possible, an idea on the amount of effort needed to fix them.


2mindril

Motion control?


39in1

The program ROM appears to be encrypted. Mame on ARM.

alg

Laserdisc games. They all work in theory, but are waiting for a good quality laserdisc dump.

alpha68k

goldmedb -


ampoker

sigma2k -


argus

bombsa - Banking problems, Data roms won't pass ROM check. Probably needs some checks done on the real hw (Guru has the PCB).


astrocde

tenpindx - This game used a physical hockey puck which the player slid down the bowling alley. Sensors on the other end picked up the location and velocity of the puck and simulated the pin behavior. Requires simulation of this input interface in order to be considered working,.

atarigx2

All of these games suffer from some advanced protection that affects them in different ways. Through some magic accesses in memory, data can be decrypted using some special key sequences that are not entirely understood. It might be possible to find all possible data sources, run them through the decryption process on the real PCB, and then encode that information in the driver, but it is tedious work at best. Below is the status of each game:

motofren - Has some obvious gameplay glitches. Not much work has been done to understand the protection on this one.

spclords - Has had some of its data decrypted, which is why the palette during attract mode looks ok. But in game there are many problems lurking.

rrreveng -


berzerk

moonwarp -


bfcobra

inquiztr - Missing floppy disk image and 6809 program ROM.


bfm_sc2

quintond -


bigfghtr

Undumpable protection MCUs.

gekitsui -


coinmstr

trailblz -

supnudg2 -


comebaby

Game runs on a Pentium (I/II/III?) class machine running Windows 98!


coolridr

Skeleton driver. Uses SH2 + SH1, 68k etc. Dual screen game, plays like a cheap korean rip-off of Outrunners (suspected to be recompiled from the same code ;p). CPU comms don't make sense, interrupts don't make sense.. somebody mentioned that the SH1 has 'extra' features, but according to dox it's plain sh1, and the sh2 core should be 100% backwards compatible. it SHOULD be possible to get this working, or at least doing something more and would be a good / interesting project for somebody.

cop01

mightguy - Protection not emulated.

tenkaid -

tenkaie -


eolith

hidctch3 -


epos

catapult, dealer, revenger - Bad dumps.


equites

gekisou - Hangs on some cpu comms at the moment, but if you skip past that it hangs on MCU check. It uses an alpha MCU, and uploads code for it (as do all equites.c games) it MIGHT be possible to emulate the MCU, as was done for some alpha games with an earlier MCU. Currently MCU is simulated for equites.c games, but not this one.


ertictac

poizone - GFX problems, uses ARM7 CPU, port of Acorn Archimedes game. Not sure what the actual problem is.


esh

Laserdisc game. Works in theory, but is waiting for a good quality laserdisc dump.

royalcdc -

jokercrd -

monglfir -

soccernw -

snookr10 -

saloon -


gaelco2

aligator - We have an unprotected version of Alligator hunt to attempt to simulate the protection in the protected version, but it isn't easy, looks like MCU may provide ROM patches.

touchgo -

touchgon -

touchgoe -


galaxia

galaxia - Skeleton driver. It's a galaxian rip-off on a custom board with CVS-like hardware IIRC (Haze).


galaxian

supergx , hare - Bad dump.

dingoe - Probable bad dump and encryption.

trvchlng - No question rom dump.


galivan

youmab, youmab2 - Weird bootlegs, who knows.


galpani2

Kaneko protection MCU with internal rom, managing CPU comms. Decap should possible, should be the same for all games / sets.


galpani3

Kaneko protection MCU, same type of chip as other 90s Kaneko games. Decap should be possible.


gamecstl

gamecstl - 'Modern' PC Hardware running a MAME bootleg.


getrivia

m075 -

superbwl -

gepoker1 -


ghosteo

bballoon - Uses a fairly recent ARM based chip. Almost a skeleton driver.


gladiatr

ppking -


go2000

go2000 -

gottlieb

mach3, cobram3, usvsthem - Laserdisc games. Works in theory, but are waiting for a good quality laserdisc dump.

gpworld

Laserdisc hardware. Works in theory, but is waiting for a good quality laserdisc dump.

gstriker

Tecmo MCU providing jump addresses etc. Has direct access to entire CPU bus, prevents code modification (MCU writes 'ROM ERROR' if you change ROM). ROZ pitch difficult to understand.

slrasslt -

gticlub -

gticlubj -

hangplt -

racedrb1 -

racedrg1 -

steeltap -

hdrivaip -


hng64

hng64 - The I/O CPU is a protected MCU. There is some thought that the game uses this as a protection device.

fatfurwa, buriki, roadedge, sams64_2 - Fatal Fury Wild Ambition is the only game working well enough to derive video hardware behavior from. The ground ROZ layer and animating tilemaps have yet to be implemented, and can be implemented using only this game, but more games will need to be playable to completely figure out the video.

Samurai Showdown 64 takes a different path through the BIOS, buriki uses the video hardware in weird ways, etc. Making these boot and load the palette would be a great start.


homedata

mjikaga -


hornet

sscope -

sscopea -

sscope2 -


hshavoc

Genesis hardware, but uses a PIC to control state based encryption. All the code that matches the Megadrive version has been decrypted, but the extra code (startup code, coins etc.) appears to have some annoying extra encryption.


hyprduel

magerror - Mostly 'playable' but CPU comms issues means it takes forever between some scenes.


igs_180

jalmah

daireika -


jchan

Kaneko protection MCU, same type of chip as other 90s Kaneko games. Decap should be possible.


kaneko16

Kaneko protection MCU, same type of chip as other 90s Kaneko games. Awaiting Decap results. Afaik (Haze), SebV made some progress on it for the Kaneko 16-bit ones. No relationship has been found between the (encrypted?) data in the data rom, and the data obtained by trojans. See Bonk's Adventure protection simulation in the source for more info.

kinst

kinst2k -


kinstb

konamigv

All games on this system suffer from a corner case involving audio track playback in the SCSI CD-ROM emulation.


konamigx

racinfrc, opengolf - Both of these games use a special ROZ layer generated by the "PSAC4" custom IC which appears to include a height map.

fantjour - This game (the export version of Gokujou Parodius) uses a protection chip to write to the palette.

soccerss - This game would probably work if the video emulation were simply sorted out a bit more.

rungun2, vsnetscr, rushhero - Each of these games has a Xilinx FPGA (different per game) which primarily acts as a DMA controller, copying things all around work RAM and into the palette and sprite RAM. However, the format of it's operation list is not understood (see the comments in src/mame/drivers/konamigx.c for more details).

slamdnk2 -

ggreats2 -

le2j -


konamim2

polystar -

totlvice -

btltryst -

heatof11 -

evilngt -


kopunch

ksys573

This PSX-based hardware would certainly be possible (probably even easy) to emulate, and Guru has many of the CD-ROMs in hand.


laserbas

Jaleco-like protection device.


laserbat

catmousa -


legionna

Complex Seibu 'COP' protection device.


lgp

Laserdisc game.


liberate

prosoccr -

prosport -


littlerb

Annoying VDP-like chip controlling access to video devices. Commands not fully understood, correct readback of data just as important as writes as addresses etc. are stored and it affects future writes. Runs through attract mode with bad graphics, but no guarantees are made that the sprite-list it's currently processing is in the right format, or the right place as everything is written through the 'VDP' device.


lockon

Work in progress - nearly done.


lordgun

m72

lohtb - The bootleg hardware is different to the original hardware.

lohtb2 - This set has the MCU dumped, we can use the simulation code from the original, but I (Haze) have chosen not to. The MCU should be emulated.

model2

model3

moo

moobl -


mpatrol

alpha1v -


mpu4drvr

Very cranky hardware.


mquake

Preliminary driver.


ms32

f1superb - Extended MS32 board with additional video chips, however, I (Haze) suspect there is a v70 bug affecting game behavior as there are no corners and the camera is always placed at road level. MS32 cleanups are currently in progress, but haven't helped this so far.

nss

Menu system difficult to make sense of.


nwk-tr

racingj -

racingj2 -

thrilld -


nycaptor

cyclshtg - Missing (protection?) MCU dump.


oneshot

maddonnb - No program roms on this set. GFX have misplaced tiles when used with other program roms, so this is a different license / revision.


pacman

woodpeka - Missing and badly dumped program roms, which are tucked into an epoxy block.


pangofun

pangofun - PC based hardware, possibly bad / incomplete dump.


panicr

panicr - Capable of reading back the background layout ROMs for collision, readback method isn't properly understood, so the game doesn't play correctly.

sbugger

sbugger - Bad dump, different revision to working set.


scramble

conquer, skelagon, scrpiona - Bad dump.

monsterz - Incomplete protection emulation.


sderby

pmroulet - Protection MCU handles win rates etc. Correct win behavior is critical to this gambling game functioning as expected, so simulation probably doesn't make sense.


seattle

banbam - protection MCU.. seems to be a data (or code?) ROM for it tho.

pettanp -


stv

decathlt - Funky DMA/decompression protection (reads gfx data via protection chip, descramble / decompress? scrambled registers).

elandore - Protection and vdp1 issues.

ffreveng - Black screen somehow.

findlove - Controls broken.

myfairld - Sound ram check breaks things, see source.

twcup98 - Missing tecmo logo. Protection, player / ball movements etc.

Work in progress by Ville, 68040+68hc11+32051+taito own 3D.


taitowlf

Preliminary, PC+voodoo.


taitoair

Possible 320c25 bugs. Possible m68k-c25 communication issues. Not easy, the c25 code is hard to read, probably interesting.


tank8

tank8a -

tank8b -

tank8c -

tank8d -


tarzan

Skeleton, even the CPU is unsure.


tattack

Preliminary, maybe protection.


tcl

Skeleton, decryption incomplete.


tecmosys

MCU Protection gives out code. Need to run tests on Deroon Dero Dero. It would be good to test Touki Denshou -Angel Eyes- as well, but we don't have a board.


tetriunk

PC hardware, preliminary.


thayers

Laserdisc game. Works in theory, but is waiting for a good quality laserdisc dump.

tmaster

tm -

tm3k -

tm4k -


tmnt

sunsetbl -


toaplan2

fixeight - Protection MCU supplies background data.


topshoot

Protection MCU handles inputs (and winning odds?).


toratora

Very strange, may be missing a rom, schematics available.


trvmadns

ttchamp

Skeleton-ish.


tumbleb

wondl96 - Undumped protection MCU.


turbosub

Cannot progress without a dump of the 7 video processor instruction PROMs (AM29116DC).


tx1

tx1, tx1a - Work in progress - almost complete (tx1 has corrupt sprites due to undumped ROMs).

buggyboy - ROM dump is incomplete.


vegas

warfa - Something is wrong with the on-board ethernet chip emulation. If the chip is hacked out, the game boots, but that's not accurate. There were many rendering issues last time I checked.

roadburn - Sound board is different; with some manual fiddling, you can get it in-game, but it doesn't work particularly well.

nbashowt, cartfury, nbanfl - These Vegas games used a Voodoo Banshee video card. The current 3dfx voodoo emulation has some basic support for the Banshee, but it is pretty minimal. The tricky bit is that the Banshee (and later, the Voodoo 3) have integrated 2D and 3D capabilities, so we need to emulate at least part of a VGA controller in addition to the 3D. These boards also had some new features that require some addition internal reworking of the Voodoo driver.

sf2049, sf2049se, sf2049te - Voodoo 3-based, one step beyond the Voodoo Banshee problems

viper

Work in progress by Ville, PPC+voodoo.


vsnes
