I have two working Timber boardsets. My plan was to convert one of
them to a RB Tapper so I can do a boardswap in my Timber Cabinet.

I have read conficting info about this though. KLOV states that Timber
is MCR II and RB Tapper is MCR III. I have seen other sites that claim
both are MCR III. I am confused.

So I have a couple of questions.

1. Can a Timber PCB be converted to a RB Tapper?

2. If so, how? The ROMs have been dumped for MAME, but the locations
are not noted.

Dumped Roms:

5785
5786
5787
5788
rbtbg0.bin
rbtbg1.bin
rbtfg0.bin
rbtfg1.bin
rbtfg2.bin
rbtfg3.bin
rbtfg4.bin
rbtfg5.bin
rbtfg6.bin
rbtfg7.bin
rbtpg0.bin
rbtpg1.bin
rbtpg2.bin
rbtpg3.bin

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin

Here is a faq I used to do some work on my spyhunter:

http://users.rcn.com/jenison/mars/faq/MCR_FAQ.txt


it shows Timber as an MCRII and Tapper as an MCRIII but I think it also
states that it might be possible to run the roms on MCRII hardware.

There is also a faq on ionpool.net that Clay wrote on how to make an MCR
multigame that may be of some assistance.

Hope this helps. Sorry I don't have an exact answer to your question.
