Hi,

Ok, finally got my Getaway more or less back together and noticed that it is running rom version P-C which according to the IPDB website is one of the prototype ROMS (maybe kind of explains some things/differences I noticed about my unit vs. other units).

Any event I have seen the chart and read the threads, but there really isn't anyplace that suggests changes/problem with the P-C version of ROM. I did burn myself a version of the L2 ROM, so in your (everyone's) opinion, should I just install it? Or has the preference changed to a different version? I didn't find anything specific about the L3 version either.

Thanks for any input.

Ok, poll added.

I tried L2 quickly yesterday after I posted and the only thing that jumped out at me was some different default settings - I didn't play the game long enough to notice the game play difference (nor did I notice the graphic improvements - shows how observant I was). But I also 'suck' at playing as well...

Cheers,

Quoted from MrSanRamon:

Yes, that's the table I posted...
I run L-2 and liked L-5, except for the multiball bug...which is really, really annoying.
I asked recently that the L-5 ROM be modified to remove the bug, but the response back was that WMS forbids their ROM to be modified, so to fix L-5 someone would have to rewrite the entire rule set; which is never going to happen.

I have seen a small program floating around that is suppose to modify OEM ROM images to prevent 'ghosting' of LED's for Williams games. No idea if it works or not, but maybe this is a way around that so that each person can make the changes themselves if they wish?
