- TIPS AND TRICKS -
* Debug Mode (in Debug Mode, you will be able to select starting scene, gold, EXP and several items) :
1) Hold Service Switch and reset the game.
2) Wait until 'Service Switch Error Message' is displayed, then push 'Start(x3), Service, Start'.
3) The game boots up then insert a credit and select a character.
4) Enter Debug Mode instead of starting the game.
* Your character jumps backwards when hit by an enemy. When you're trying to quickly cross some areas where you're likely to take damage, this can be a bad thing; it can cause you to stay in the dangerous area much longer. So, to reduce the damage, turn back just before you get hit. This will cause the impact to push you -forward-, getting you out of danger more quickly.
* The maximum amount of money you can have is 60,000 Golds.

MAME Info:
0.37b9 [David Graves]
Artwork available
WIP:
- 0.136u4: Angelo Salese hooked up bare bones Z180 (4MHz) communication CPU (network) in Cadash.
- 0.134u2: Volker Hann and Team Europe added clone Cadash (Germany).
- 3rd October 2009: Smitdogg - Team Europe dumped Cadash (Germany) (thanks to Volker Hann).
- 0.123u3: RansAckeR added DIP locations to Cadash.
- 0.122u6: Corrado Tomaselli verified and changed CPU frequencies in Cadash. Changed 68000 CPU1 clock speed to 16MHz.
- 30th September 2007: Mr. Do - A couple prior purchases are finished: Cadash bezel. Note: Cadash is almost 10MB; that's AFTER it was reduced from 22MB. It's very graphic intensive.
- 0.106u12: MASH added plds ($0, 200, 400, 600 - pal16l8b-c21-09.ic34, pal16l8b-c21-10.ic45, pal16l8b-c21-11-1.ic46 and pal20l8b-c21-12.ic47) to Cadash.
- 0.90u3: Removed ADPCM sound.
- 21st March 2001: Bryan McPhail added sprite buffering to Cadash.
- 0.37b11: Added dipswitches 'Starting Time', 'Added Time (after round clear)', 'Communication Mode' and 'Unsed'.
- 0.37b9: David Graves added Cadash (World) (Taito 1989) and clones (US), (Japan), (France) and (Italy). TODO: Any other games on this hardware? It may be close enough to Asuka hardware to consider merging the drivers eventually. Hooks for twin arcade machine setup: will involve emulating an extra processor, the 07 rom is probably the program for it. Fixed dipswitches.
- 25th October 2000: David Graves added another romset to the Cadash driver.
- 8th October 2000: David Graves sent in yet another Taito update with a working driver for Cadash.
- 20th November 1997: Malcor dumped Cadash (World).
