So I know it's fairly well documented that you can convert a Jungle Hunt/King to an Elevator Action and visa versa just with the correct ROM swap, I have done it myself in the past.
I now have a spare EA board on my hands and I am looking to convert it to an Alpine Ski, which is essentially the same hardware. Unfortunately it seems it is not as straight forward as those other games. I was hoping that a ROM swap would do the trick but perhaps there are some specific PROMs on the AS board that need to be used here along with the ROM set?
Interested to know if anyone has tried this before or if anyone here might own an AS that they might be willing to help me figure out what the differences are to an EA board?
I am also hoping that getting this to work will be some ground work laid that will eventually be able to help us get a previously in released (or at least in very rare quantities) game called Adventure Canoe. Taito recently released this on the mini Egret 2 and a friend is working to create a mame rom from it so we can try and play it outside of that little device....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have also posted about it on an old thread on KLOV here as well - https://forums.arcade-museum.com/threads/elevator-action-to-alpine-ski.476451/#post-4950064
