Misclassified computer: Alphatronic P2 (Spanish)
Posted: Mon Dec 23, 2024 4:12 pm
Hello,
I would like to explain a communication error of mine that found its way into MAME source code. It's about the Spanish Alphatronic P2 at driver alphatpx.cpp. The Spanish ROMs and subsequent configuration should not hang from the P2 configuration but from the P2U configuration. I know because I did the dump, but did not know at the time my unit was a P2U. I am new to MAME and I do know some languages but not CPP, so modifying it myself may bring errors.
On the other side, I do have the actual Spanish P2 ROMs, as well as the Italian ones. On the forum rules it is stated that there is an official submission page for this kind of material but I wasn't able to find it.
Thank you for your time and patience!
