Atari Firefox split needed

Firefox.zip and clone firefoxa.zip
are finally working, with Laserdisc footage(11,7GB chd)...since Mame0.128u4.
I've waited this for...years. =D>
...But my machine is too slow (sob). 70% at frameskip 8/10, P4 2,4. And when recording it gets even slower...

But to the point. The game needs to be split to four(4) missions, which are all different "tracks". It's not only laserdisc background but there are some targets too. TG also has 4 tracks for the game .

Easy - 3000 miles
Moderate - 6000 miles
Hard - 9000 miles
Hardest - "unlimited" journey (12 000?)

Thank you sirs.

Done. Split as follows:

firefox-eas "Fire Fox (set 1) [Easy]"
firefox-mod "Fire Fox (set 1) [Moderate]"
firefox-hrd "Fire Fox (set 1) [Hard]"
firefox-hdt "Fire Fox (set 1) [Hardest]"

firefoxa-eas "Fire Fox (set 2) [Easy]"
firefoxa-mod "Fire Fox (set 2) [Moderate]"
firefoxa-hrd "Fire Fox (set 2) [Hard]"
firefoxa-hdt "Fire Fox (set 2) [Hardest]"

Great!

And I'm planning to buy a bit more new pc around xmas. Perhaps some cheapo dual 2.3Ghz with no fancy video card...if that's enough for Firefox that is. I will not pay 1000 euros just because mamedev wants me to, those greedy bastards. :)

Any benchmarks, even without chd are welcome.

Mame 0.128u4 requires chd but Firefox is "playable" without chd on 0.128.

CHD is torrenttable from...pm me.
Mame 0.128u4 binary:

Whoa, when did this happen?! I can't begin to tell you how happy I am about this! I've been off the scene for a while but this makes me want to come out of MAME retirement and fire the old thing back up again. This is excellent news :D
