Hi Folks,

I have 3 Cruis'n World games. 2 are version 2.0, 1 is a version 1.3. I would like to upgrade the 1.3 to a 2.0. Can I do this by simply copying specific ROMS from the 2.0? The goal of course is to link all three together.

I searched the web for info on this but could not find anything meaningful.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Scott
 
There are 4 chips which dictate the version. U10-U11-U12 & U13

Replacing these 4 chips will upgrade to the version of your choice.

I know of the existence of
v 1.3
v 2.0
v 2.3
v 2.4

As for linking the games, you also need a PAL chip with the correct linking software.
(...unfortunately, I can't remember exactly which chip it is... )

However, if you want to know if your v1.3 board can be linked,
simply swap out the v2.0 eproms (U10-U13) from one of linked boards
and see if you [upgraded] v1.3 board will work.

If so, I'd be happy to provide you with the v2.0 eprom upgrade.

Cheers,

You can get the images from MAME,
but yes, I have all the different versions.

PM me your e-mail address and I'll send you what you want.

Cheers,
Steph
 
Did this work

I have the same issue with my cruis'n worlds. I have a 1.3 and 2.0 that I'm trying to link up. I was wondering if you were successful in changing the chips and linking them up?
 
I purchased the 4 upgrade chips from STEPH and everything worked perfect. It upgraded one of my C.W. to 2.0 to match the other one and I was able to link them up.
Thanks Steph!!!
