Howdy,

I've just acquired a stand up Crusin USA. The PCB version is 1.2

The one ripped for mame is 1.4

I'm not sure what the difference is, but is it possible to upgrade? Or does anyone know if there is a differences? or where to find out?



Thanks in advance...

Nothing huh? Hmmmmm. How did the ops upgrade the firmware revision when they were in the Arcade? Probably send it in I suppose....

I know the upgrade chips come with the link kit. That does you little help. I have heard of some places that will burn the updates onto new chips. I can not think of them off the top of me head. Ill see what I can find.
 
Cool Thanks. Let me know. I haven't been able to find much myself though. Maybe you'll have better luck...

I updated both my cruisin worlds by programming roms from mame. Worked great!

I think it was only 4 chips that needed the updating too. There was a web page on it, cant find it now though.
 
Look on Ebay for ROMgirl. Or just search for cruisin update roms. She has everything. I want to say I even bought some of these from her as well.
 
Looks like RomGirl is not longer a registered user of ebay. Don't know what's up with that.

I'll try the ArcadeServices.

I would really like to know if there was a PDF or a sheet telling the difference in versions. Like what is the difference between 1.2 and 1.4???? Speed or is it just correcting text Mis-spellings or what?...

1.4 corrected some software bugs and added some pricing changes if I recall right. As far as a PDF goes that explains those bugs and changes, I dont think your going to find one of those. If I recall right there are only 2 or 4 ROMs that need to be changed to upgrade the game.

2.1 was the first version that linked correctly but it also required that you change some GALS and security IC's.
