MAME Info:

WIP:

- 0.138u1: Angelo Salese documented and worked around a long standing level 3 protection fault in Pop Flamer. Fixed color regression (swapped proms) and the game resets after the third round.

- 0.133u1: Renamed (popflama) to (popflamea), (popflamb) to (popflameb) and (popflamn) to (popflamen).

- 0.129u4: Changed Custom sound to Pop Flamer Custom.

- 0.118u2: Changed Z80 CPU1 clock speed to 3MHz.

- 0.116u3: David Haywood added clone Pop Flamer (bootleg on Naughty Boy PCB).

- 24th June 2007: Tirino73 dumped Pop Flamer (bootleg on Naughty Boy PCB). This romset comes from a bootleg PCB. It's a Naughty Boy conversion. Gameplay differences are none.

- 0.89u3: HobbesAtPlay supported cocktail mode in Pop Flamer. Added 'Cabinet' dipswitch and 2nd Player.

- 0.57: Simulated protection in Pop Flamer [Paul Priest]. Added Pop Flamer (protected). Changed 'Pop Flamer (set 1)' to clone '(not protected)' and '(set 2)' to '(hack?)'. Renamed (popflama) to (popflamb) and (popflame) to (popflama).

- 16th December 2001: Tourniquet added protection emulation into the Pop Flamer driver.

- 0.37b1: Removed 2nd TMS36XX.

- 20th March 2000: Mike Haaland adjusted the Pop Flamer sound settings.

- 0.36RC2: Added 2x TMS36XX sound.

- 0.36: Removed 2nd TMS36XX. Added Pop Flamer (set 3) (Stern License) (Testdriver).

- 12th March 2000: Juergen Buchmueller sent in a sound core for TMS36xx sound chips emulation and modified Phoenix, Pleiads, Naughty Boy, Pop Flamer and Monster Bash to use it.

- 0.36b7: Added Custom sound.

- 0.35b13: Gerald Vanderick added clone Pop Flamer (set 2), note the different gameplay. Changed parent description to 'Pop Flamer (set 1)'.

- 0.34b3: Brad Oliver fixed gfx banks in Pop Flamer.

- 0.34b1: Added color proms ($0, 100 - palette low and high bits).

- 0.33b2: Brad Oliver added high score saving to Pop Flamer.

- 0.30: Brad Oliver added sound in Naughty Boy and Pop Flamer, using the Pleiads driver. Not very good, but it's a start.

- 0.29: Accurate colors in Pop Flamer [Tim Lindquist, Nicola Salmoria].

- 0.28: Brad Oliver provided a driver for Pop Flamer (Jaleco 1982).

- 24th August 1997: Dumped Pop Flamer (not protected).
