- Angelo Salese updated the Sega ST-V driver:
- Fixed Batman Forever rom loading,now the game works,thanks to Runik to point this out.
- Fixed some interrupt issues because the old implementation was giving several hangs on the above game.To be more specific added the sprite draw end irq to the INTERRUPT_GEN structure & fixed a bug which prevented the vblank bit to not be cleared if the irq mask has the VBLANK-IN disactivated.
- Fixed the NMI_disable/enable cmds on the SMPC device,his function is to active/disactive a bit in the SMPC ram.This fixes the "2 credits bug at start-up" in Shanghai Triple Threat.

- Corrado Tomaselli removed a hack from the Ghox controls so it acts like real PCB
- David Haywood attempted to fix a crash in Crackdown

- Quench improved the SSlam audio MCU sim
- Sebastien Chevalier made SN76496 improvements
