Think ive covered most of the CPS2 PALs that I have in my collection. Time to start on the CPS1 ones.
Ive included a couple of ones that are already in the MAME sets just because I spent a bit of time on them before I realised MAME did have them present. The other 2 are classed as “No Dump” according to MAWS.
C632
IOB1
STF29 – From Street Fighter 2 World Warrior (location 1A on B board)
S9263B – From Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition (location 1A on B board)
I have dumped and tested the following:
BGSB3B PAL – I found this on my Dungeons and Dragons: Tower of Doom board
C2VA3 PAL – This is in the black all-in-one boards. Not sure if its the same for all games, this is from Marvel VS Capcom
I had an issue with the BGSB3B one, it didn’t work initially and just gave a black screen. Doing some logic analysing of the original PAL showed that pin 12 was permenantly LOW and on mine it was set HIGH.
I don’t know or understand a great deal about programming PLDs but I think that pin 12 is set high by the line “!B0 = ‘b’0;”
I think this means set to binary OFF and maybe if its active low then these things are swapped. This is all a huge assumption and am probably way off but by changing the above line to “!B0 = ‘b’1;” all became good and well so I’m claiming it as a victory.

As I continue to test out the PAL dumping, I’ll put the confirmed working ones up for download.
Here is PAL B04-12 PAL from a Taito Rastan board.
I have tested this and seems to work fine.
