Version 0.115u2

Released: 2007-05-23

MAMETesters Bugs Fixed

  • cidelsa0114u4gre [Aaron Giles, for real this time]
  • pignewta0115u1gra [ShimaPong]

Source Changes

  • Merged in a couple of minor tweaks from MAME Plus! [MAME Plus!]
  • Fixed China Gate high scores. [Robbert]
  • Fixed Final Lap R/Speed Racer graphics. [Zsolt Vasvari]
  • Added a new opcode for Match It 2. There still are 4 unknown opcodes and the "no tiles" bug before it will be promoted to working status. [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]
  • Changed the CRTC6845 emulator to optionally control the screen configuration and video rendering. Updated the Qix and Spiders driver to use the new functionality. Added notifications for when the display enable pin changes in order to drive blanking signals. [Zsolt Vasvari]
  • New 74123 timer emulator. It supports different ways a 74123 can be hooked up that affect the timing period. The old implementation was incorrect in lots of respects. [Zsolt Vasvari]
  • Removed the addressing order parameter from pia_config() and replaced it with dedicated write and read handlers. [Zsolt Vasvari]
  • Rewrote nyny driver: [Zsolt Vasvari]
  • Game speed should now be correct. It was way too slow before
  • Added star field. The game can stop and reverse the direction of the star field by changing a delay counter
  • General driver clean-up
  • Fixed DIP switches and the voices
  • Fixed bug in win_get_window_text_utf8() for when a window's text is an empty string. [Nathan Woods]

  • Changed png2bdc to support multiple input PNGs. [Aaron Giles]

  • Added border support to the Astrocade driver. Extended the starfield generation out into it. Extended the blanking region out farther to match information from the flyers and set the default scale/offset of the games to crop appropriately. [Aaron Giles]
  • Fixed the CDP1869 to fill the border area with the background color. Added cropping to the Cidelsa games. [Aaron Giles]
  • Corrected speaker locations and placement for Gorf and Wizard of Wor. Added missing mux to Gorf's audio, which controls speech versus sound effects during the game. [Aaron Giles]

the core. [Ernesto Corvi, Zsolt Vasvari]
