Added a few Misc. drivers
Mirage - one of the few remaining Deco16ic games not in FBA.
Atari's Nite Driver
Tank Busters

Dink is hard at work bug-fixing these

Great additions! :)
The SEGA's Z80-3D system (VCO Object) is one of the first hardware with a sprites/objects scaling technique...
it uses a specific analog scaling technique, various Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) produce clock signals that control the data fetched from the sprites/objects ROM(s): slower clock signals produce larger sprites on the screen, instead higher clock signals produce smaller sprites on the screen.

Omega Race, another iq_132 / dink endeavour!
It might look kinda simple, but it packs a lot of fun.

When I first saw it, I wasn't expecting much.. but, it surprized me: there's a lot of fun to be had in Cloud9, despite it being a prototype and looking quite simple :)

best regards,

Well done guys as always  :cool:
Just curious about Argus: does it have the sprite/bg lag fixed ?
The MAME version is bugged since day 1
Thank you

Thanks :)
Regarding Argus and sprite:bg lag:
The sprite:bg lag which happens when the screen scrolls sideways isn't an emulation bug, its actually how the game works.  The PCB does exactly the same thing I'm afraid. :(
Here's a recording from PCB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSgRfAgd7yU for proof.

Oh my bad, I didn't know about that
the arcade craze was so high in these days that
even buggy games were released
