Partial

Real evidence exists, but authoring requirements are still missing or in conflict. Verify before shipping a table.

Completion6%

Progress is derived from the fixed author-readiness requirements. It helps rank unfinished work, but only a 100% author-ready definition passes the publication gate.

Recreation notes

Working knowledge that has no schema field yet — edition differences, tuning values, pitfalls.

Coverage: partial - machine identity only. Nothing about playfield devices, wiring, mechanisms, or behavior is evidenced yet.

This record was promoted from the generated catalog stub stub.pinmame.frpwr_d7 by the catalog-wide identity pass of 2026-08-29. The promotion resolves machine identity and carries the catalog's residual driver grouping over unchanged, and it deliberately asserts nothing else. Every requirement in the definition's coverage.missing is genuinely outstanding.

Identity

  • PinMAME catalog: root driver frpwr_d7, description "Firepower (Sys.7/7-digit conversion rev. 31)", manufacturer "Williams / Oliver", catalog year "2005".
  • OPDB record G5VDd-MJpqO (IPDB 856) names this machine "Firepower" (Williams, manufacture date 1980-02-01); identity is unresolved: OPDB record shared with williams-oliver.firepower.1980, so the mapped record is treated as a lead rather than a resolved identity.
  • The definition's driver list is exactly the clone tree PinMAME declares under frpwr_d7; whether every listed driver really runs on this physical machine is unverified.

Drivers this record holds

  • frpwr_d7 (2005, Williams / Oliver).

What a curator must establish next

Controller platform from the pinned PinMAME driver source; full input, output, and display enumeration with semantic names; physical wiring and polarity; mechanism inventory and behavior; variant differences across the clone tree; recreation knowledge from a manual, schematic, or known-working table; runtime provenance; and a normalized spatial placement for every physical device. No manual, table, ROM analysis, or harness evidence is retained for this machine yet.

ROM sets

Every driver that resolves to this physical machine.

ROM set Description Year Parent Hardware

Parent set: frpwr_d7 — clones share this definition unless a hardware difference is noted.

Evidence

Every claim above traces to one of these. When they disagree: a known-working VPX script wins on controller addresses and causality, the manual wins on wiring and construction, pinned PinMAME wins on emulator routing and display layout.

Something wrong or missing?

This definition still has 15 unmet requirements, listed under Coverage above. Fixes belong in the definition itself — editing on GitHub forks it for you and opens the pull request.

Cite a source for anything you change — a manual page, a line in a working VPX script, PinMAME source, or a reading from the machine's own service menu. Claims without provenance cannot be validated.
