WillFA11 - Lethal Weapon 3 speed test, round 3 Test build v1.28 ===================================================================== WHAT IS NEW IN v1.28 - The CPU clock is back at 1 MHz like on the original board (it was 12 % too low). Lamp shows, timers and the DMD data rate now run at the original speed. - New speed settings, calculated from your v1.27 clips. The target setting A should give about 2.3 s per high score entry, like your original MPU. WHAT YOU NEED - file: WillFA11_v128_calib.jic - a phone to film the display, on the same tripod as last time THE SWITCH SETTINGS Option DIPs 4, 5 and 6 select the CPU speed in this test build. Everything else stays as you have it. Setting DIP 4 DIP 5 DIP 6 expected time per entry ------- ----- ----- ----- ----------------------- A off off ON 2.30 s (target) B ON ON off 2.22 s (a bit faster) C ON off ON 2.39 s (a bit slower) D off off off 0.85 s (much too fast, for comparison) The DIPs are read at power-up: please power cycle after each change. The boot message will show version 1.28. WHAT TO FILM For settings A, B and C - exactly like last time: 1. Power cycle, let the game go into attract mode. 2. Film the DMD until the high score list has been shown completely at least once (#1 to #6). Setting D only needs a short clip (one pass of the high score list is enough). It will look far too fast - that is expected. PLEASE ALSO CHECK - Setting A: play one or two games. Does the game feel like your original MPU now? Does the DMD keep up with the game? - DMD reset / "wiieeew" sound: do they still happen? In which setting? If possible, film it. Does the DMD show the start-up screen "LETHAL WEAPON R2.0 8/14/1992" when it happens? - Setting D: do the DMD reset or the sound happen there as well? - PIN2DMD: does it show a picture in any setting? WHAT TO SEND BACK Setting clip name game feel / anything odd? ------- ------------- ---------------------------------- A .............. .................................. B .............. .................................. C .............. .................................. D .............. .................................. DMD reset seen in setting: .............. "wiieeew" sound in setting: .............. PIN2DMD works in setting: .............. Thanks a lot - we are getting close!
