/**************************************************************************** Sega "Space Tactics" Driver Frank Palazzolo (palazzol@home.com) The Video system used in Space Tactics is unusual. Here are my notes on how the video system works: There are 4, 4K pages of Video RAM. (B,D,E & F) The first 1K of each VRAM page contains the following: 0 0 V V V V V H H H H H offset value for each 8x8 bitmap (v-tile) (h-tile) The offset values are used to generate an access into the last 2K of the VRAM page: 1 D D D D D D D D V V V here we find 8x8 character data (offset) (line) In addition, in Page B, the upper nibble of the offset is also used to select the color palette for the tile. Page B, D, E, and F all work similarly, except that pages D, E, and F can be offset from Page B by a given number of scanlines, based on the contents of the offset RAM The offset RAM is addressed in this format: 1 0 0 0 P P P V V V V V V V V V (Page) (scanline) Page 4=D, 5=E, 6=F Page D, E, and F are drawn offset from the top of the screen, starting on the first scanline which contains a 1 in the appropriate memory location --- The composited monitor image is seen in a mirror. It appears to move when the player moves the handle, due to motors which tilt the mirror up and down, and the monitor left and right. --- ***************************************************************************/ #include "emu.h" #include "includes/stactics.h" /************************************* * * Palette * *************************************/ static PALETTE_INIT( stactics ) { int i; for (i = 0; i < 0x400; i++) { int bit0 = (color_prom[i] >> 0) & 0x01; int bit1 = (color_prom[i] >> 1) & 0x01; int bit2 = (color_prom[i] >> 2) & 0x01; int bit3 = (color_prom[i] >> 3) & 0x01; /* red component */ int r = 0xff * bit0; /* green component */ int g = 0xff * bit1 - 0xcc * bit3; /* blue component */ int b = 0xff * bit2; palette_set_color(machine, i, MAKE_RGB(r, g, b)); } } /************************************* * * Scrolling * *************************************/ WRITE8_HANDLER( stactics_scroll_ram_w ) { stactics_state *state = space->machine().driver_data(); if (data & 0x01) { switch (offset >> 8) { case 4: state->m_y_scroll_d = offset & 0xff; break; case 5: state->m_y_scroll_e = offset & 0xff; break; case 6: state->m_y_scroll_f = offset & 0xff; break; } } } /************************************* * * Frane counter * *************************************/ CUSTOM_INPUT( stactics_get_frame_count_d3 ) { stactics_state *state = field.machine().driver_data(); return (state->m_frame_count >> 3) & 0x01; } /************************************* * * Beam handling * *************************************/ WRITE8_HANDLER( stactics_speed_latch_w ) { stactics_state *state = space->machine().driver_data(); /* This writes to a shift register which is clocked by */ /* a 555 oscillator.
