I've looked at adding Galaga & DigDug, but they would have no sound.  I may add them anyway.

I take it, those games need a sound core or other stuff?

Does crazy kong and donkey long have the same issue?

Thanks for all your work so far. FBA is fast becoming a great alternative to MAME :)

May I request these be ported from MAME?

aliens.c
jackal.c
zaxxon.c

Keep up the good work IQ you're doing a magnificent job and we all appreciate your efforts :)

No problem. ^^

Donkey Kong needs a MB8884 core, a z80 dma setup, and at the very least sample support.
Crazy kong, on the other hand, is a driver that I've already put a little time into.  I just need to go back and finish it.

Aliens -- Custom Konami cpu -- no.
Jackal - I'll add to my list. :)
Zaxxon -- I really want to add this game, but it's hard for me to put any effort into games with encrypted Z80s that may or may not work with doze. :s

I wonder how much fun it would be to add it.
Would the core etc from MAME be allowed?
No doubt, I would already know the answer :lol:

CPU cores are not fun at all to port (at least from my experience).

The successful result of adding a CPU core is fun, ...getting the successful result are the other $20 bucks xD

SeeYaa!

Nah, I haven't had the chance to add anything but just the gfx & 68k stuff for the bootleg.
