you're better qualified than most to study this dink, but my gut feeling is the flaws in this thing are just going to be bugs in the game. Once you start to hack something to the extent this was hacked up you're going to end up with unexpected problems, especially if there's no testing beyond a small release to a very specific market. although yes, I do wonder what that 18 vs 0 thing is. |

18 is hard-coded in the rom at 3853. The code that draws the screen reads this and writes it to screen memory 407F for '1', and 405F for '8'. The avi clip does indeed show 0 so I'd say this set has a few unknown mysteries yet to be solved. |

Haze thanks, the purpose of writing this was to document so it doesn't get forgotten (my memory is full of holes lately). One thing I'm curious about is that little circuit added to the pcb, do you recognize which pins it is connecting to on the edge connector? My thoughts are, without being able to find a pinout for that connector: a replacement amp -or- some sort of input manipulator/latch/timer/???/? (the pcb pics are on the site listed in the additional info: field above) best regards, - dink |
