Summary 00229: truxton: The background colour on the title screen of Truxton should be green.
Description The background colour on the title screen of Truxton should be green. When you insert a coin it changes to blue like mame.
At first I thought it was a fault of my pcb so I didn't post, but recently I saw a Tatsujin pcb in action and it behaved like mine.

we really should be looking for ways to merge it down to a single video update function (except for the rally bike sprites) because it's the same chip on all boards, not split it further. The correct solution will be the one that works for everything (as Toaplan2 shows, if you ignore the different external mixing circuits on Dogyuun and Batsugun, which is to be expected)

you really shouldn't be splitting it further, you should be looking for the register that controls the differences.

For MT admins etc:

I'm not really happy with things like this being marked as 'resolved' because that would indicate the issue has properly been solved.

In this case I'd prefer some kind of 'resolved with a kludge' type flag, so that it's clear the issue could still do with further addressing because IMHO there is still an underlying problem which needs to be understood even if the game is now playable without glitches.

Marking it as fixed creates the illusion that there is no longer any problem at all.

now the video update routine is the same for all the games; only rally bike have a different sprite routine (and a different sprite chip)

and all games work properly without bad or missing tiles?

that sounds like better progress, even if the drawing is a bit odd (and I might revisit it)

ok, good. I'm happier with this marked as resolved then.
