I had thought the paddle extending beyond the left side boundary was an emulation bug,
but f4brice's Atari Breakout cab video shows it is how actual hardware behaves. I posted
it about it yesterday, and DICE's emulation of that specific BTANB behavior matches the
machine's video output. Very good work there. :-)

I don't know if f4brice visits MW these days, but he does have his Youtube account if he
needs to be contacted. An extended videoclip of Breakout (on Youtube?) to ensure that
the emulation almost matches the actual board's gameplay might be useful.

>Other than that the game should be bug-free (as far as I know!)

The one noticeable bug in Breakout at this time is this
condition: "...sometimes the sound sticks on when the ball bounces off the right side."


Thanks with doing Midway TV Basketball. As for screen outputs issue, I had forgot that
Fever had photos of these....taken by Mr. Do at a previous CA Extreme show years ago.
These photos are on the "Rough" page section on Discrete Logistics.

This shows the cab when not powered on.

And this is what television screen looks like when powered on during "attract mode" sequence.
