And also my thanks to Keven Eshbach, Stephen H., and siftware, and to both Adam and Rich for making it possible to show that the proms that siftware had dumped years earlier from the Ramtek pcbs seem to be okay.
After trying Crossfire (Atari, 1975) it is an okay game imo. It could have been better if they supported the "single player versus machine" option.
For Pin Pong (Atari, 1974) gameplay reference, watch the youtube videoclip for gameplay reference. The large ram usage size is mentioned on the DICE home page. If trying Pin Pong in DICE 0.8 and using an out-of-date computer, it is a long wait as Pin Pong is loaded into ram before game can be played.

For Ramtek Clean Sweep, the prom names have been changed earlier to match what is on the Ramtek Clean Sweep pcb. The correct Clean Sweep prom names are in the MAME source file under Ramtek.c DICE code should be matching the same prom names as in MAME source.
If DICE indicates an error regarding prom names, it is because the Clean Sweep rom set was downloaded a long time ago. Rename them to what is in MAME source Ramtek.c and it should work okay.

ROM_START( cleanswp )
"501075.c6", "501076.d7", "501074.k3", --
The last thing to mention about Clean Sweep is a bezel will eventually be worked on so there can be future artwork support for Clean Sweep in MAME later when Clean Sweep is emulated in MAME.
The bezel should have a light shade of blue (center portion of bezel) for the video output to seem to be in color, but it is actually a black/white monitor....not a color monitor (sort of a temporary color hack until bezel and its shaded blue color is supported later). The bezel uses backlit lamps to indicate gameplay status.
Eventually the netlist code should cover the gameplay and backlit lamps feature whenever emulaton takes place later in MAME.
