Road Blasters upright vs cockpit screen
08/13/14 08:50 AM


Road Blaster's history.dat says the following:

Quote:


This large sit-down cockpit model has a plastic lens over the monitor which enlarges the screen to make it seem like a 25-inch CRT, in a fashion similar to that used in very early TV sets during the 1950s.



I took in-game snapshots of the upright parent and the cockpit clone and compared them and didn't see any difference in size. So apparently this enlargement wasn't emulated for the cockpit clone? Probably because this enlargement effect had nothing to do with the actual game/ROM/PCB. Well, can't Mr. Do! or someone simulate this enlargement effect with an artwork file? Has this enlargement effect ever been implemented for any other game in MAME?
