La version 1.4 est la version Home edition, c'est donc une version non officielle (la dernière étant la V1.3) et en FREE PLAY, le monnayeur est désactivé.
Pour installer la V1.4, il te faudra remplacer
obligatoirement le Security Chip (U22/G10) qui coute tout de même assez cher.
Pour ce qui est des différences :
Différence entre la V1.2 et V1.3 :
Changes from revision 1.2:
Correct a bug in the Multiball Lock logic where balls could not
be locked after video pinball was played.
The lockup device now behaves better when one of its switches
is broken.
Slingshots now disabled at game over.
Fixed the logic on the outlane proximity switches. If a switch
is stuck on, and Hocus Pocus is enabled, the magnet is no
longer fired.
Différence entre la V1.3 et V1.4H :
Version 1.4H (Home version)
NOTE: USE OF THIS ROM REVISION REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING GAME HARDWARE:
1) REQUIRED: A "#124" U22 PIC security chip installed on the MPU board. This chip
is available from
www.shiftedbits.com
2) OPTIONAL: Magic Post (working up-post between flippers) and working Tiger Saw
unit (motorized unit) which are operated by this software revision. These devices
were originally present on prototype (pre-production) models of Theatre of Magic,
so most games do not have them.
Notes from designer Louis Koziarz:
This is the Theatre of Magic 1.4 Home ROM. It supports the Magic Post and
Tiger Saw motor on prototype playfields. There are no adjustments to
control the behavior of these devices.
YOU NEED A #124 PIC TO USE THIS VERSION.
New coil assignments:
---------------------
Coil 19 = Drive to tiger saw EMI board. Use 12V supply for pin 3 of board.
Coil 23 = Flash drive for Magic Post.
Coil 36 = Solenoid drive for Magic Post (UL Flipper Hold).
1.40H u6.pp = CB14 10/31/96
WARNING :
---------------
There is a known fatal in Multiball in this version. It will be fixed
later. Caveat Emptor.
