Notes

it looks like some eproms are missing (as well as a ram). Using my prom dump in Espial gives the Orca logo on title screen (but BG is missing).


update 20060427 from Brian A. Troha:
Looks like it's a bad conversion from Net Wars to Espial.... the roms match those from Espial (Euro) when checking the CRC32 values, but the color proms match Net Wars. When I plug in those color proms, it's clearly wrong as most of the graphics go black.
So you can pull it off (or updated it as the Euro version and state it's already emulated) as it will not get added as a new clone.
The color proms for Espial black out colors 0x1c & 0x1d. These are the colors the Orca logo is drawn in. For netwars these colors point to blue and pink and you see the blue & pink Orca when using those proms.
