well, i don't know whats going on really.. Have you got a technical or operators manual for Galaxian 3? that would answer a lot of questions for me.. I spoke to the guy again today about the G3 he scrapped, he said that he kicks himself for not removing all the other boards, he said he didn't have time and just loaded it all into skips without removing anything. He's still not sure if he has the laserdisc players or not but will check tomorrow for me for anything at all that is left. He only scrapped it 6 months ago too  |

Well, I just have the ' The Installation Manual', but I have to scan it. But I don't think it'll really help for the understanding of the electronic parts. Anyway, It includes a lot of A3 pages (I'll buy an A3 scanner for that  ). I spoke to the guy again today about the G3 he scrapped, he said that he kicks himself for not removing all the other boards, he said he didn't have time and just loaded it all into skips without removing anything. He's still not sure if he has the laserdisc players or not but will check tomorrow for me for anything at all that is left. He only scrapped it 6 months ago too Oh... my ... God  Let's hope he'll found back some boards or other parts  |

I have a feeling I know P-man and have met him twice  He's THE man for this job Bruno, please tell me you only will emulate this for keeping it safe for the future. Since your machine is running, it really deserves to be fixed in it's original form ! |

Of course There is no reason to emulate something working  As far as I remember, only the laser disc players are broken, but there are a lot of specialists here and there  But emulation could be the only way to play 'Project Dragoon' mission by example (my GT-6 is loaded for playing 'Attack Of The Zolgear' only), and I'm not sure to have a complete set for 'Dragoon'  But hey, we are still very far for an *working* emulator anyway Maybe the biggest challenge for the emulation scene ?  |

That's great to hear ! Yes this definitely needs to get emulated of course. How will it be played on a normal system ? Would it require 2 screens I guess ? |
