SERVICE MODE:
- To enter service mode, reset keeping the service button pressed.
Bugs:
- popeye and clones: Final game resolution output is different at original game. kamilz (ID 05600)
- [possible] The colors of the platforms, steps and ladder of the first board seem off. reesal (ID 04284)
WIP:
- 25th February 2019: Mr. Do - We have updates for Popeye, it was simply fixing the background color of the bezel.
- 0.198: Adjusted Popeye layer positions to match tests on real hardware. Added preliminary emulation of the corruption on the Popeye bootleg logo caused by x flipped and non x flipped sprites being displayed right next to each other [smf].
- 0.197: smf added clone Popeye (Braze High Score Kit P1.00D). Swapped clones Popeye (bootleg set 1) and Popeye (bootleg set 2) and repaired some of the proms as they appear to be bad dumps [smf]. Changed description of clones (bootleg set 2) to 'Popeye (bootleg set 1)' and (bootleg set 1) to 'Popeye (bootleg set 2)'. Renamed (popeyeb2) to (popeyebl) and (popeyebl) to (popeyeb2).
- 0.195: Reverted clone Popeye (bootleg set 1) to 0.33b6 names and contents. The tile ROM was replaced with the contents from the TPP2 set and all the graphics roms were renamed to match the names in use at the time. The tile rom in the recently dumped "Popeye (bootleg set 2)" also matches the old tile rom, so it's a reasonable bet that the dump was correct. Moved Copyright from dipswitches to machine configuration, the schematics show that they are just resistors. The Unknown bit isn't hooked up on the schematics and the game doesn't access it, so I've changed it to unused. Fixed background alignment in TPP2 sets. Converted machine config, address maps, palette init, background write handler & background drawing to virtual methods. Only include protection device on hardware that has it. Fixed TPP2 test mode background. Added sprite ram, background scroll and palette buffering. Unmap $8000 to $87ff for TPP2 as 7f is not populated at the factory. Moved popeye palette resistor network into driver class. NMI disable is latched from A9 (which corresponds to bit 0 of the I register) when RFSH goes from high to low [smf].
- 0.194: Joe Magiera added clone Popeye (bootleg set 2). caius added clone Popeye (bootleg set 3). Fixed background in Popeye (Japan), Popeye (Japan, Older) and Popeye (bootleg set 1). Popeye (Japan) does not run on the exact same hardware as Sky Skipper & was the basis for the popeyebl set. Fixed horizontal and vertical scroll register behaviour in Popeye. Changed function names from the game name to the hardware id the functionality was first used in. Fixed Popeye background scrolling when screen is flipped. Implemented sprite priority & clipping according to description in MT03725. Note: On the real Popeye hardware, sprite colour 0 is not transparent with respect to overlapping sprites. It's only transparent with respect to the background graphics. When two sprites overlap in Popeye, the sprite with the highest priority completely overdraws the sprite underlying it, including the transparent area (pixel with colour value 0). The result is that instead of proper sprite prioritzing, overlapping sprites are overdrawn like chunky blocks [smf, Oliver_A]. Moved protection save state into driver_start() leaving driver init for decryption, combine sprite proms & invert bootleg proms in the rom load, bank the sprite palette & only update the palette if the bank register changes, draw background directly into bitmap & include the area above the background buffer (although it's not clear exactly where the values are fetched from on real hardware) [smf]. Changed description of clone (bootleg) to 'Popeye (bootleg set 1)', (Japan, Sky Skipper hardware) to 'Popeye (Japan)' and (Japan, Sky Skipper hardware, Older) to 'Popeye (Japan, Older)'.
- 0.189: Justin Rudebaugh added clone Popeye (Japan, Sky Skipper hardware, Older).
- 27th August 2017: Smitdogg - caius dumped a bootleg of Popeye.
- 0.178: ShouTime added clone Popeye (Japan, Sky Skipper hardware).
- 0.154: Changed netlist gauss seidel solver to be a subclass of direct solver and got rid of ugly fallback solution. As a result, Popeye is now 45% faster in comparison to 0.153. AY8910_RESISTOR_OUTPUT now selects resistance calculation by simple saturation MOSFET model in ay8910.c. Currently only 1942 and Popeye use this [Couriersud].
- 0.153: Changed Popeye to use palette computed from schematics. Also implemented interlaced field support. This is actually read by the game. Popeye now has netlist filtering and amplification for AY-3-8910A [Couriersud]. Note: On the original Popeye board, sound channel A from AY-3-8910 is run through a discrete filter, producing a smoothed wave form. This only affects sound channel A. Popeye driver cleanups [Alex Jackson]. No more legacy CUSTOM_INPUT on Popeye (emu\ioport.h) [Miodrag Milanovic]. Added 'Netlist Sound Device' (48000 Hz).
- 21st October 2012: 3D ARCADE - New Nintendo 3D cabinet model for Popeye from Jibmums.
- 0.129: Kevin Eshbach corrected the rom names for Popeye, added save state support, added the DIP locations to the encrypted Popeye and fixed the coin settings according to the manual (unencrypted Popeye not changed).
- 8th October 2006: Mr. Do - Ad_Enuff finished vectorizing his work of love: Popeye bezel.
- 0.91: Nicola Salmoria fixed Popeye crash and the Water colour by correctly masking the tile attribute.
- 12th July 2004: 3D ARCADE - New 3D cabinet model for Popeye from Baraka.
- 0.60: Changed VSync to 60Hz.
- 22nd October 2001: William Kucharski sent in cocktail mode fixes for 1943 and Popeye.
- 0.53: Decrypted the original Popeye [Nicola Salmoria]. Added new cpu1 rom ($6000) to clone (revision F). Changed palettesize from 304 to 288 colors. Added dipswitches 'Copyright' and 'Unknown'. Removed 3rd coin slot. Changed parent description to 'Popeye (revision D)' and clones (set 2) to 'Popeye (revision D not protected)' and (rev. F) to 'Popeye (revision F)'. Renamed (popeye2) to (popeyeu).
- 0.37b6: Added clone Popeye (rev. F).
- 25th June 1999: Mike Coates modified Popeye to be properly rotated.
- 0.35b2: Nicola Salmoria added clone Popeye (set 2). Not working due to encryption. Replaced proms in (set 1) with (set 2). Changed parent description to 'Popeye (set 1)'.
- 0.34b1: Added color proms ($0, 20, 40, 140).
- 0.33b2: Nicola Salmoria adjusted the brightness of the background in Popeye, which should make it correct according to the schematics. Maybe now it's too dark?
- 0.33b1: Added Popeye (Nintendo). The original doesn't work because the ROMs are encrypted. The encryption is based on a custom ALU and seems to be dynamically evolving (like Jr. PacMan).
- 0.31: Known issues: You get about 7 bonus lives when you reach level 4.
- 0.30: Juan Carlos Lorente fixed high score saving in Popeye.
- 0.28: Since there are now many games which don't run at 60fps (e.g. Popeye and the vector games), F11 was confusing and lead people to think the emulation was slow, while it was running at the correct speed. F11 now displayes the percentage of the speed of the real machine. 100% is the correct speed, 200% is twice as fast, 50% is half as fast [Nicola Salmoria].
- 0.27: Popeye runs at the correct speed of 30 fps [Nicola Salmoria].
- 0.26: Mauro Minenna introduced a new option (-dir4) that simplify the use of the joysticks to be connected on the keyboard. This modify resolves the problem of diagonal direction in games such as PacMan, Popeye, and Kung Fu Master.
- 0.23: Some fix to Popeye sound pitch.
- 0.20: Thanks to Marc Lafontaine's invaluable help, Popeye is now fully playable and has 100% accurate colors. Supports high score saving, too. Still very slow. Added protection prom po_d1-e1.bin.
- 0.19: Marc Lafontaine added 'Popeye (bootleg)' (1982). It's not yet playable (when the game starts the machine resets) but it has music already. It's also very slow, since it uses a 512x480 screen. I'm looking for decryption scheme for original Popeye board using Lionel's idea [pain!].
- 9th March 1996: Dumped Popeye (revision D).

NOTES:
- The main set has a protection device mapped at E000/E001. The second set (which is the same revision of the program code) has the protection disabled in a very clean way, so I don't know if it's an original (without the protection device to save costs), or a very well done bootleg.
- The bootleg derives from a different revision of the program code which we don't have.

- 0.201: Removed EEPROM MCFG macros [Ryan Holtz].
- 0.198: Set default EEPROM clock to zero (machine\eepromser.h and drivers\popeye.cpp) [smf].
- 0.197: Implemented NMI acknowledge and TPP2 watchdog [smf].
- 0.139u3: Added includes\popeye.h.
- 0.131u1: Angelo Salese merged memory maps in the Popeye driver.
