WIP:

- 0.146: hap fixed atarivc_eof tag and shortened playfield_upper(15 chars) tag to playfield_up. This fixed missing/corrupted graphics in Relief Pitcher.

- 0.141: Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added clone Relief Pitcher (set 2, 26 Apr 1992 / 08 Apr 1992). Changed parent description to 'Relief Pitcher (set 1, 07 Jun 1992 / 28 May 1992)' and clone 'Relief Pitcher (set 2)' to 'Relief Pitcher (set 3, 10 Apr 1992 / 08 Apr 1992)'. Renamed (relief2) to (relief3).

- 12th December 2010: Smitdogg - We've dumped Relief Pitcher (another alt revision).

- 0.139u3: Aaron Giles moved the old hard-coded EEPROM data out into a file in Relief Pitcher.

- 0.139u1: Aaron Giles changed atarigen_state to be a base class from which all the related Atari drivers derive their state from.

- 0.135u4: Some more Atari driver shuffling [Aaron Giles]: Added atarigen_init() function which allocates all timers and registers for save states. Updated all drivers to call it. Converted some drivers to use device timers.

- 0.135u3: Aaron Giles converted atari drivers over to using driver_data for the most part. Some shared systems still exist with globals, but this tackles the atarigen module and the variables local to each driver.

- 0.129u1: Changed region gfx2 to gfx1 ($200001).

- 26th July 2008: Mr. Do - Thanks to the BYOAC/CAG artwork, we now have a Relief Pitcher bezel.

- 0.114u2: Aaron Giles and Couriersud added more accurate video timing to most of the Atari 68000-era games. The parameters are from published specs, not derived. The board uses a VAD chip to generate video signals. Changed VSync to 59.922743 Hz.

- 0.114: Couriersud added general save state support to the atarigen module.

- 0.105u4: Aaron Giles added PLD dumps to Relief Pitcher. Added gal16v8a-136093 plds ($0, 200, 400, 600, 800, a00, c00, e00 - Addressing, Video, Motion Objects, 2x Palette and 3x Unknown).

- 0.78: Removed button 4. Added 7x 'Unknown' dipswitches.
