New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status --------------------------------------------------- Entex Stargate [hap, Kevin Horton] Entex Turtles [hap, Kevin Horton] Milton Bradley Lightfight [hap, Sean Riddle] Tamagotchi [hap, Digshadow, Natalie, segher] New clones added ---------------- Entex Space Invader (COP400) [hap, Sean Riddle] (not working) New games marked as GAME_NOT_WORKING ------------------------------------ Castle Toy Einstein [hap, Sean Riddle] Coleco Frogger [hap, Kevin Horton] Entex Basketball 2 [hap, Sean Riddle] Entex Color Football 4 [hap, Sean Riddle] Master Monty [Andrew Gardner, Rik] Mattel Funtronics Jacks [hap, Sean Riddle] Mattel Funtronics Red Light Green Light [hap, Sean Riddle] Milton Bradley Plus One [hap, Sean Riddle] Monty Plays Scrabble [Andrew Gardner, Rik] Tomy Break Up [hap, Sean Riddle] MAMETesters Bugs Fixed ---------------------- - 05924: [Crash/Freeze] (spectrum.c) spectrum: Infinite interrupt service routine loop bug [MetalliC]. Source Changes -------------- - abc80: Fixed VSYNC and de-interleaved the ABCDemo diskette. ABCDemo now runs from both cassette and diskette. Default to ABC 830 disk drive with fast controller [Curt Coder]. - abc802, abc806, abc1600: Fixed invalid data transmitted on first keypress [Curt Coder]. - abc806: Implemented flashing, double height, and underlined characters by hooking up the RAD PROM [Curt Coder]. - add more (undumped, needed) roms as NO_DUMP to the VT100 driver after consulting later VT100 Tech manual. Correct one misnamed undumped rom on the GPO board [Lord Nightmare]. - Add newer VT320 Firmware [Matt Burke]. - Add VT220 V2.1 ROMs and VT220 Character Generator Rom [Matt Burke]. - Added a lot of findings and docs to the WMS driver. These are video slots identified as WMS 360 / 550. Also added the proper crystals, correct CPU, frequency, preliminary memory map, 2 new sets, and technical info [Roberto Fresca]. - Added netlist-level parameter NETLIST.USE_DEACTIVATE. Device deactivation optimisations can now be enabled within the netlist provided the circuit can deal with them [Couriersud]. - Added Seiko Epson E0C6200 cpu emulation [hap]. - AVR8 CPU: Fix I/O register mapping and improve logging [Felipe Sanches]. - Bump version on *nix man pages [Cesare Falco]. - camplynx: Added lower case letters for pasting. Added cassette load and save. Added TAP cassette support. Most (but not all) programs are working [Robbbert]. - cgenie: Rewrote driver and removed lots of cruft. Remove custom 6845 emulation and use our standard core. Use the slot system for the parallel interface, fix and implement the joystick as a slot device and create a printer slot device. Add support for the RS-232 port. Add support for the Break key (causes NMI) [Dirk Best]. - Cocoa debugger: autosize controls for custom font size choice [Vas Crabb]. - Correct VT220 xtal, and add the romset listed in the schematics as NO_DUMP [Lord Nightmare]. - Downsizing... Removed netlist_ttl_input_t and netlist_ttl_output_t. The logic family is governed by the chip and defaults to TTL. However individual devices may change the logic family of their inputs and outputs as well. Implementing special output/input characteristics of "S", "LS", "HC", ... you name it, devices is now pretty easy. Theoretically e.g. a "LS_HighPrecision" proxy could be used to model the output down to the transistor level [Couriersud]. - Drop NO_SDL_GLEXT define on OSX [mbcoguno]. - gameboy: More updates to the cart emulation. Fixed some MBC1, MBC2 details. Added MMM01 notes on registers. Fixed Sachen MMC1 implementation so that Sachen logo is properly displayed. Started work on the emulation of Sachen MMC2 mapper [Tauwasser]. - gameking.xml: Added dump of one multigame cart [TeamEurope]. - HLSL shader improvements: Changed shadow mask implementation, shadow count XY now represent the number of pixel the shadow UV sized tiles will take on the screen. Implemented rotation of the shadow mask texture depending on the default landscape or portrait view of the screen. Removed prescale and pixel border of the shadow mask texture. Added option to change the shadow UV offset, to reduce the color bleeding of the shadow mask. Adjusted presets to work with the changed mask implementation. Reduced defocus offset. Improved downsampling for better blurring. Improved alignment of bloom layers (raster and vector). Applied bloom effect to the render output of screenshot and AVI recording. Changed curvature effect to fit screen size. Changed scanlines to be not rendered into bloom layers. Changed shadow mask to be not rendered into bloom layers. Changed color floor to not light the bloom layers. Changed shadow mask to not dark the color floor. Added image vignetting simulation and option. Added round screen corner simulation and option. Added screen light reflection simulation and option. Made usage of unused brightness offset (additive). Removed unused pincushion option. Removed duplicate shadow count Y options. Removed artwork/adapture.png. Added artwork/adapture-grill.png. Added artwork/shadow-mask.png Added artwork/slot-mask.png. Added hlsl/simple.fx. Removed unused shaders::blit() function. Added shaders::screen_pass() function, which handles the (raster-)rendering on screen, into screenshot and AVI recording. Added effect: set_bool() function. Fixed usage of OrientationSwapXY shader parameter. Added RotationSwapXY shader parameters to consider the user defined screen rotation. Added missing RotationSwapXY shader paramter. Fixed curvature zoom to fit the screen size in any aspect ratio. Fixed black border on the right and bottom side of the screen, caused by the previously added rounded corners [Jezze]. - ibm5170.xml: Add disks from various sources: Make Original Diskettes images from an Acer hard drive recovery CD archive.org uploads from dashcloud. Own Kryoflux reads [Justin Kerk]. - leapster.xml: Added a few new dumps [TeamEurope]. - m24: add z8000 apb support [Carl, Andreas Senk, rfka01]. - MAME now represents full build, for building MESS drivers only use make SUBTARGET=mess, for building only Arcades drivers only use: make SUBTARGET=arcade [Miodrag Milanovic]. - More progress on SPICE to netlist conversion. nltool can now convert simple SPICE netlists e.g. from LTSpice to netlist format [Couriersud]. - msx: Started adding disk images to msx1_flop.xml and msx2_flop.xml, based on preliminary partial work by Riley110 [Fabio Priuli]. - n64 optimisation: Improve blender performance. Improve RDP speed by eliminating some unneeded code. RDP - remove threaded waits to increase performance. - nascom: Clean up, add NASBUS emulation and make the floppy disc controller a NASBUS card, convert to the new wdc emulation, add generic socket emulation, add initial software list. Add support for the Advanced Video Card (AVC). Add support for the selectable restart address. Add support for the CP/M version of the Nascom 2. Add floppy softlist [Dirk Best]. - Netlist: Fixed soft reset due to wild BJT_SW oscillations. Downsized nld_signal.h to one template. Some minor changes improving performance by some notches. Always compile nl_asserts to avoid bit rot. Adjusted monitor gain for breakout [Couriersud]. - Netlist: Improved 9312 device ==> 20% speed increase. Remove netlist_state_t ==> no added value. Removed dead code in solver. Various minor modifications. Performance monitoring now also displays stats for subdevices. Fixed save-state issues. Fixed save state in 9312. Added EXTCLOCK which can generate arbitrary timing patterns. Use two EXTCLOCKs to replace timing circuit (9316) in breakout. This gives a speed increase from 60% to 75% [Couriersud]. - Optimized some netlist devices [Couriersud]. - pet_flop.xml: Added SFD-1001 Test/Demo disk [SPACETAXI]. - Rewrote the MOS6532 RIOT [Curt Coder]. - savquest: Hooked up Voodoo 2 device. Switched to DS12885 device for proper CMOS size. Moved Voodoo register base to proper place. Implemented Voodoo-specific PCI registers to pass Glide validation. Increased frame-buffer size to enable 640x480 resolution. Hooked up ISA bus and SoundBlaster 16 device. Extended HASP emulation to return product information. Documented HASP behaviour [Peter Ferrie]. - sms.c: Few corrections to the driver. Define the default offset setting for Light Phaser at only one place. Add to the smsj the TH input handling that latches the HCounter, because the /HL line is connected to the VDP. Minor code/comments maintenance [Enik Land]. - Some netlist bugfixes: Savestate works. Truthtable device deactivation fixed. Truthtable ignore mask is now determined by a better approach identifying more ignore possibilities [Couriersud]. - Started on Mitsubishi MELPS 4 cpu emulation [hap]. - TLCS-90 CPU: Fixed TRUN bit masking (timers start/stop) [Rainer Keuchel]. - Update 315_5124.c palette in TMS99x8 modes [nitrofurano]. - Update palette in 315_5124.c [nitrofurano]. - voodoo fixes: Fixed voodoo direct lfb reads from PCI memBase1 (non-3d). Fixed voodoo depth selection for pixel pipeline write. Fixed voodoo depth selection for rasterizer. Fixed depth biasing for fog selection. Minor voodoo fix for color expansion in rasterizer. Minor voodoo initialization changes so that address masks are correct. Fixed voodoo_pci type selection. Fixed voodoo_1 pci initialization [Ted Green]. - VT240 and VT320: add links to DEC-O-LOG service notes for different firmware changes, add firmware version numbers [Lord Nightmare]. - VT240: Map the T11 roms into cpu space in the correct order/interleave [Lord Nightmare]. - WMS driver... Hooked the Analog Devices ADSP-2105 CPU (still need proper memory maps). Added technical notes [Roberto Fresca].
