TEST MODE:
  • Flip the DIP and check an extremely complete test mode, it's beautiful for emulation.
Bugs:
  • Service Mode goes black when an option is chosen. Tafoid (ID 03200)
WIP:
  • 0.135u4: Fabio Priuli updated Dragonball Z driver to use Konami video devices instead of konamiic.h code.
  • 0.125u4: Aaron Giles fixed crasher due to some Konami games using 8 layers in the K056832 implementation, even though it was only written for 4.
  • 0.104u7: Changed description to 'Dragonball Z 2 - Super Battle'. Pierpaolo Prazzoli updated the Dragonball Z games to use the K056832 chip emulation, fixing color offsets and priorities.
  • 0.75u1: El Condor fixed 'Service Mode' dipswitch.
  • 0.69a: Changed Z80 CPU2 and YM2151 clock speeds to 4MHz and VSync to 55Hz.
  • 15th December 2002: Angelo Salese fixed the Dragon Ball Z 2 tilemap positioning.
  • 0.62: David Haywood added Dragonball Z 2 Super Battle (Banpresto 1994).
  • 30th August 2002: Stephane Humbert fixed the dipswitches and inputs in the Dragonball Z 2 Super Battle driver.
  • 29th August 2002: David Haywood added the background graphics to the Dragonball Z 2 Super Battle driver and is currently the leader in the contest of worst game ever emulated.
  • 24th August 2002: Angelo Salese submitted some color and sprite positioning fixes for the Dragonball Z 2 driver, but the background graphics still aren't emulated.
- 0.61: Added Dragonball Z 2 Super Battle (Testdriver). TODO: Find palette RAM. Hook up '251s (modify konamiic so you can have 2 '251s first) and fix priorities. Fix selftest for '157 (it's very un-Konami-like). Make PSAC2s ('936) work.
  • 2nd June 2002: David Haywood fixed the colors in Dragonball Z 2.
  • 1st June 2002: R. Belmont submitted a driver for Dragonball Z 2 appeared out of thin air. However, the background graphics aren't emulated and there are other problems as well.
  • 23rd July 2001: Guru - Dumped Dragonball Z 2 - Super Battle (Banpresto 1994). Thanks to Keferen for sending the PCB.
