Summary	03745: anteaterg, anteateruk: Underground background color is incorrect
Description	As the pictures illustrate, the background color of the original pcb for Anteater is blue until you hit the ground, then it's completely black. In MAME, it's forever blue. There might be some wire hacking or something else at work.

If not, does the romset on the real pcb which the picture was taken from (a hacked super cobra pcb?) match the set in MAME? There may be an issue with incorrect color proms (or color prom hookup) in MAME.
No.05754 Dr. Morbis Tester Feb 23, 2010, 18:25	The sun flashes and cycles through most (if not all) of the colors in the game's palette (as do the two queen ants at the bottom of the screen), so it could be seen in various different colors in multiple pics, but yes, the monitor in my Anteater cab has degaussing issues in the top right-hand corner and H-hold issues on the right edge of the screen, so ignore those issues - the words "high score" should be solid orange and the colors in MAME appear to be correct, the blue background notwithstanding. I can probably get you some pics of the PCB on Wednesday...

No.07311 hap Developer Mar 13, 2011, 00:30	ok, it should have a bgcolor split similar to frogger
