MAME Info:
0.135u2 [Guru]
WIP:
- 0.137u1: Fixed rom loading.
- 0.136u4: Changed IDT R4650 (big) CPU1 clock speed to 133328920 Hz. Added H8/3334 (14745600 Hz) CPU3 and ioboard rom asca1_io-a.ic2. Fixed region c352 address to $800000. Changed visible area to 640x480 and VSync to 59.8824 Hz.
- 28th February 2010: Guru - Rapid River (RD2 Ver.C, Namco 1997), initially purchased by Brian Troha, arrived a couple of days ago from Smitdogg. Was hoping to use the Rapid River main board to fire up Final Furlong to check it out but it turns out the main board has similar issues to all of the other Gorgon boards that came to me for dumping... The main board is missing vital parts. I did a quick test on the Eolith board. I have a Balloon & Balloon PCB on the same Eolith Ghost Ver. 1.1 hardware. I swapped all of the ROMs over and it boots Happy Tour. That means the protection device is at least the same for all games on this hardware so far. Thanks to Smitdogg and the DU for acquiring/sending these out.
- 0.135u2: Guru added 'Final Furlong (FF2 Ver. A)' (Namco 1997).
- 15th August 2009: Guru - From Smitdogg/The Dumping Union we got Final Furlong.
- 24th June 2009: Smitdogg - Thanks to A. Holfe and T. Lynch we got Final Furlong. You may recall the last time when I picked this up about 9 months ago it turned out to be missing the tiny program rom board.
- 28th October 2008: Guru - Final Furlong on Namco Gorgon hardware arrived over the past few weeks. Unfortunately the main program flashROM daughterboard is missing (denoted by the red arrow pointing to the unpopulated white connector where it should be plugged in) and the I/O board is missing too. On the Final Furlong PCB, the surface mounted R4650 CPU is missing! It's a very clean slick job so clearly it was taken to repair a Namco System 23 game by a professional PCB repairer. And of course, the ebay seller has no idea what's going on... hmmm (rolls eyes). Thanks to Smitdogg for caring though! Hopefully we'll have better luck next time.
