Built from Version H-6 / H-5 / Profanity roms)
No info is known about the changes with these versions, as far as gameplay / rules (if any).
Both H5 and H6 are FREE PLAY ONLY (cannot be setup for coins)
Both H5 and H6 use a specific set of sound roms which are reduced compression / higher quality sound samples, which is why there are 2 extra roms needed (SU8 and SU9) for this set, and the SU2-SU7 are not the same as the ones used in the standard sound rom set.. (I am not sure if/how well these sound roms will function with the latest LX4 version, so even if seems to work, there may be periods of missing music or sound effects when certain sounds are triggered if you do not run the “home sound roms” with H6/H5 CPU.)
H5 = Upgraded sound quality without Profanity
H6 = Upgraded sound quality with Profanity
