The Odyssey 2 core has made a lot of strides over the past couple of years. However, it can't play the Videopac+ G7400 games. The G7400 was a revision of the Videopac that was backwards compatible with all Videopac software and offered grahically-superior versions of Videopac games as well as a few exclusive games such as Trans American Rally+ (you can identify the enhanced games because they all end with a + symbol).
After doing a little digging, I discovered an alpha core that's in development by Victor Trucco. Here's a video he posted back in February: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yfa0ZIc_2Xc
Does anyone know Victor? Maybe it'd be worth reaching out to him to see if he'd port this core to MiSTer.

I don't know Victor, but he is the guy behind TTBlue, the FPGA core used on the Spectrum Next.
One can probably find him in the ZX Spectrum Next circles...

I hope this core for the G7400 will soon get released on MiSTer FPGA as well! Especiallly those 2 + games, Helicopter Rescue and Trans-American Rally, were very different from the other Videopac games, because they were 16KB.

Don't have the VideoPC G7400 core?

This core is running on his project called Multicore, Victor Trucco is a wizard on the system, but he has not released this core for his system yet.
