Got muddymusic’s Vendetta PCB. Game seems to play fine but the blue colour is missing.
Schematics are available for this game which made it simple to find the fault.
I could see all the inputs to the custom 052535 chip but the output of the SIL was constantly low.
I have a scrap Konami PCB that uses these so removed on and fitted it.
Board is now fixed
sukhbir on the UK-VAC forums recently had an issue with my IOC1 dump.
We eventually discovered an issue and also found a PAL chip that was actually unlocked so now we have the actual dump of the chip (and its quite surprising how it works too).
Best submit this to MAME too.
My good friend muddymusic has made his debut in the PAL dumping world and has sent some PALs from the follwoing games:
Athena
Bank Panic
CPS1 Nemo
CPS1 Strider
Rohga
Secret Agent
TumblePop
Obviously and registered devices were not dumped but this is a great list.
Thanks to muddymusic

There are two PAL chips on Vendetta and both have been dumped.
Thanks to MM for this board.

I have muddymusic’s Insector X PCB here. There are four PAL chips on this board, two of them are already dumped as they are the same as on The New Zealand Story PCB that caius had, the other two are now dumped as well.
Its worth noting that B06-12 could not be dumped with my PAL dumper hardware as it used latches so it is manually reverse engineered. The game boots and plays but I cannot guarantee it is 100% error free.
A user called JCB also sent in a dump from Batsugun. Don’t know anything about this game or the dump but thanks very much to him.
