[Lord Nightmare] Updated Windows exit code to ensure cursor is shown again. [Nathan Woods] Moved Space Stranger/Space Stranger 2 into its own driver and fixed cocktail mode. [Zsolt Vasvari] Major rewrite of pmpoker driver: [Roberto Fresca] * Removed all inputs hacks. * Connected both PIAs properly. * Demuxed all inputs for each game. * Documented all outputs. * Added lamps support. * Created different layout files to cover each game. * Add NVRAM support to all games. * Corrected the color PROM status for each set. * Figured out most of the DIP switches. * Added diplocations to goldnpkb. Updates Enigma 2 video and interrupt systems from the schematics. Changed the color gun layout to match the flyers as much as possible. [Zsolt Vasvari] Converted Raiders 5 driver to tilemaps. [Zsolt Vasvari] Updated 68705 clocks to take into account the internal divide by 4. Added constant so that it is clear why this is being done. [Aaron Giles] Hooked up 6845 CRTC to the qix-based games. All games now generate display resolutions and frame rates on the fly. Cleaned up memory maps and a few other bits along the way. Added save state support.

[Tormod Tjaberg] Rewrote the vp906iii driver: [Roberto Fresca] - Decoded GFX properly. - Rewrote the memory map based on program ROMs analysis. - Hooked two SY6520/6280 (M6821) PIAs for I/O. - Hooked the SY6545 (6845) CRT controller. - Fixed size for screen total and visible area based on SY6545 CRTC registers. - Added partial inputs through PIAs. - Added proper sound through AY8910 (mapped at $0840-$0841). - Proper colors through color PROM decode. - Added some game-protection workaround. - Added NVRAM support. Removed some unnecessary NULL checks and fixed some incorrect usage of auto_malloc. [Atari Ace] Fixed layer drawing and polygon sorting order in Model 1 games. Improves wingwar significantly. [Yochizo] Significant ARM7 update: [R. Belmont] * Cleaned up disassembly * Added support for many more Thumb instructions * Removed unnecessary logging * Unaligned reads/writes are supported Fixed crash due to lack of CD in the Success ST-V games. [R. Belmont] Added calls to support enumerating through options. [Nathan Woods] Removed set_vh_global_attribute() and get_vh_global_attribute_changed() from the dozen or so drivers that used it. In the process, made an effort to clean up the video system for these games. The biggest improvements are route16, hyhoo, tutankhm and liberatr. [Zsolt Vasvari] Added a cpu core for a cpu nicknamed minx. This cpu core is used to emulate the cpu in the nintendo pokemon mini handheld console. [Wilbert Pol] Fixed and documented clocks in Omega Race. [Tafoid] Improved accuracy of 6502 CPU cores to implement the read/write that happens on every cycle. Moved the "undocumented" instructions from the 6510 cores into the main 6502 core, since there were several other versions of the 6502 cores which have the same undocumented instructions. Removed some of the #define override magic that was going on to make the code easier to read and understand. Updated the 6510 core port_read and port_write functions to include the ddr register in the parameters. [Wilbert Pol] Updated the MIPS3 DRC to align the stack to sixteen-byte boundaries at the point of calls, as required by Mac OS X calling conventions. It doesn't break compatibility with Windows or Linux calling conventions. This fixes crashes in MIPS3 games when running on OS X for Intel. [Vas Crabb] Moved the -verbose option into the core. Added new function mame_printf_verbose() which is governed by this option. Changed all existing verbose output to use the new functions. [Aaron Giles] Changed cpu_boost_interleave(), cpu_spinuntil_time(), and cpu_yielduntil_time() to take mame_time parameters instead of doubles. [Aaron Giles] Changed MDRV_CPU_PERIODIC_INT() to take a frequency parameter instead of a time. This is converted internally to a subseconds value. [Aaron Giles] Fixed asteroid and llander controls to be buttons not joysticks. [Aaron Giles] Simplified register and flags management in the TMS34010 core. Reviewed all flag handling and fixed a couple of minor discrepancies. [Aaron Giles] Hooked up actual TMS32015 on Road Riot 4WD and Steel Talons. [Aaron Giles] Improved access to system registers in i386 core. Added explicit caching of segment data and flags. Fixed several minor issues. [Aaron Giles] Added several AY8910 variants so we can better specify the use of compatible but slightly different chips.

[Curt Coder] Fixed colors in One + Two. [Tomasz Slanina] Made the PowerPC dynarec options runtime configurable. [Ville Linde] Added save state support to the hatris/pipedrm driver. [couriersud] Corrected Moustache Boy main cpu interrupt rate, main cpu clock freq, and screen refresh rate according to measurements on a real PCB. [Tormod Tjaberg] Separated the DECO and Mitchell games in the simpl156 driver and added more extensive documentation. [Brian Troha] Fixed analog controls in Solar Assault. [Ville Linde] Changed the options code so that ranges are specified on the option_entry structure, and enforced when option values are changed. [Nathan Woods] Further improved the ROZ layer emulation in the K001604. [Ville Linde] Konami ZR107 update: [Ville Linde] - Fixed sound hardware check in Winding Heat - Changed to use the correct tilemap chip type - Hooked up analog controls - Fixed texture rom loading and texture decoding - Improved the 2D tilemaps Introduced a mame_options_exit() call to complement mame_options_init(). [Nathan Woods] Added a mame_fopen_options() call, similar to mame_fopen() but with the ability to specify a core_options object to use. [Nathan Woods] Improved noise emulation in the SN76496 emulator. Added several variants which differ based on the noise generator and other parameters. [Lord Nightmare] Changed all plot_pixel and read_pixel calls to BITMAP_ADDRXX macros. Removed the now-obsolete functions. [Zsolt Vasvari] Added support for aliasing sound types. This allows minor variants in sound cores to share the same fundamental "type" so that the same sndti_* functions can be used regardless of the subtype. [Aaron Giles] Changed location of save state files. Now they are placed in the / directory. Auto-generated save state files have the name "auto.sta". All other save state files are named .sta.

[Curt Coder] More Konami updates: [Ville Linde] - Hooked up vblank interrupt to Voodoo in all Voodoo-based games - Fixed a rom loading issue in Silent Scope - Added ADC1213x A/D converter emulation (machine/adc1213x) - Hooked up analog controls in NWK-TR games MPU4 improvements: [James Wallace] - Added NMI pulsing so Deal 'Em at least starts to boot. - Decommissioned machine/mpu4.c, as the 6850acia code from Phil does the same job, making one less thing to maintain. Moved frontend commands and command-line handling into a central, core-managed location clifront.c. This eliminates the need for windows/fronthlp.c and windows/config.c and should make creating command-line based ports much easier in the future. [Aaron Giles] Fixed many of the remaining polygon glitches in GTI Club / Solar Assault / Operation Thunder Hurricane. [Ville Linde] Added save state support to the pkscram driver. [couriersud] Removed all the timing kludges from machine/konppc.c. GTI Club is kind of playable now. You can finish a lap or two, but eventually it will hang on network error. [Ville Linde] Fixed the SUBTARGET=tiny build and removed some duplicate entries in mame.mak. [Atari Ace] Added full discrete emulation of Space Invaders. I think people are going to be too used to the current samples and their relative levels. The new relative levels are determined by the mixing resistors. There are all different versions of the sound board, that all have slightly different sounds/components. This should be the proper Midway sounds. [Derrick Renaud] Updated stvcd to be working enough that most Saturn games at least die for some other reason, and a few actually do useful things. Also included a small update to the core cdrom code so you can fetch a sector without knowing in advance what format it is. [R. Belmont] Added a concept of a "crosshair screen mask" internal to video.c and created a static call to retrieve the mask. [Nathan Woods] Converted Roller Aces to stereo sound like the real hardware. Fixed the clocks and NMI rates to match the PCB. [Corrado Tomaselli] Added save state support to the Midway Y, T, X and Wolf Unit games. [Aaron Giles] Added preliminary 64-bit disassembly support to i386dasm.c. [Aaron Giles] Cleaned up internal interrupt handling in the TMS34010 core. [Aaron Giles] Added more accurate video timing to most of the Atari 68000-era games.

[Nicola Salmoria] In the COp420 core, fixed the XABR opcode, added LBI skip for extended opcodes, and fixed the CPU name in save states. Added GAME_SUPPORTS_SAVE flag to the Cidelsa games. Draco still has no sound though. [Curt Coder] Fixed crash in playch10 driver when run standalone. [Curt Coder] Added skeleton driver for Konami Viper system. [Ville Linde] Added skeleton driver for Dreamcast-based systems. Added very preliminary SH4 CPU core. [R. Belmont] Added DIP locations to the mario, mrdo, sheriff, and spacefb drivers. [Justin Szczap] Added debug attribute to the XML output. [Firewave] Got the Hang Pilot driver working. The analog controls are still missing, however, so it's still marked as non-working. [Ville Linde] Fixed crash with multithreaded rendering and the graphics viewer. [Couriersud] Improved the NWK-TR driver to get Thrill Drive mostly working. [Ville Linde] Fixed bug that caused video glitches when frameskipping due to using out of sync textures. [Nathan Woods] Updated video timing in the Sega System 16, Hang On, Out Run, and X-Board games according to measurements from the boards. [Aaron Giles] Substantially changed the TMS340x0 interfaces to allow the CPU emulator to directly manage the video screen. Glitches in several games are now fixed as a result (for example the flashing screens in NBA Jam are now gone at last). [Aaron Giles] Fixed internal timer counting in the TMS32025 core. This makes the music in Cool Pool and 9 Ball Shootout bearable.
