(Derrick Renaud) Source Changes -------------- Added built-in layouts for a large number of games: 280zzzap, buggyboy, buggychl, cbombers, changela, chasehq, chqflag, contcirc, dblaxle, finallap, grchamp, hotchase, lagunar, outrun, overdriv, pdrift, polepos, radr, roundup5, sci, slipstrm, stocker, superchs, topspeed, toutrun, turbotag, tx1, wecleman. [Mr. Do!] Merged memory maps in nemesis.c. [Aaron Giles] Scramble now is a lot closer to reports and recordings (background sound, sound of bullets). [couriersud] Fixed descriptions of the games running on NAOMI series hardware, and NAOMI game list. [Yasuhiro Ogawa] Input ports clean-up for the jangou driver. [Angelo Salese] Finally low pass filtering on channel 2A in btime driver: [couriersud] * Changed resistor to bill of material value * Adjusted volume level and added more documentation Fixed regression (missing graphics) in ipminvad (m10). [couriersud] Added support for System 24 tilemap linescroll modes. [Olivier Galibert] Various improvements to Heavy Unit: [Angelo Salese, Tomasz Slanina, David Haywood] - Added a VERY preliminary simulation of the protection, just enough to get the game to boot, not make it playable - Corrected CPU communication, IRQ/NMI generation etc. - Fixed some video emulation issues (added tilemap scroll etc.) - Corrected GFX rom loading (at least for the graphics used in attract mode) Fixed King Derby sprite colors [Stefan Lindberg, Angelo Salese] Merged tetrisp2 memory maps. Renamed teplus2->tetrisp2j. [Aaron Giles] Merged labyrunr memory maps. [Phil Bennett] Added GAME_IMPERFECT_GRAPHICS to Tutankham & clones. [couriersud] Hooked up layer enables in goldstar.c driver, fixes 'girl' in Cherry Master. [David Haywood] Scaled up renegade and mjkjidai ADPCM levels in line with recent clock_adpcm() change. [Phil Bennett] Converted all drivers to the new device-based 6821 PIA. [Aaron Giles] Added new function memory_install_read_port_handler() to more easily allow you to install read handlers for ports based on tag. [Aaron Giles] Removed input_port_read_handler8/16/32/64 functions, since they were really only used for getting a memory handler for a port by tag, and this is no longer necessary. [Aaron Giles] Moved input port handlers to internal code in the memory system. [Aaron Giles] Added port names to the taito8741 device pending its proper devicification. [Aaron Giles] Removed all remaining uses of input_port_n_r() functions, and purged them from src/emu/machine/generic. [Aaron Giles] Removed device types from device queries that use tags, under the assumption that all device tags are unique. Specifically, the following no longer need to provide a device type: AM_DEVREAD/WRITE DEVCB_DEVICE_HANDLER devtag_get_device devtag_reset device_list_find_by_tag as well as several device interfaces that referenced other devices. [Aaron Giles] Moved SH2 set info functions to direct calls. [Aaron Giles] Various improvements to the Zero Target / Counter Steer HW and cleaned-up the driver. Fixed foreground & background colors and hand-tuned sound in Zero Target based on a side-by-side test. Fixed sprite colors. [Angelo Salese] Fixed pedals in Final Lap 3. [Phil Bennett] Hooked up correct C75 MCU in namcofl.c (based on RB's namconb1.c implementation) [Phil Bennett] Corrected Dip-Switch settings for Zero Target. [Yasuhiro Ogawa, Angelo Salese] maketms: Free strings on exit. [Olivier Galibert] tms57002 - don't abort on unimplemented instructions. [Olivier Galibert] Changed eeprom erase command to write 0xff values. [Pierpaolo Prazzoli] Fixed handling of corrupt archives: [couriersud] * corrupt files in archives now generate an error * archive files ending in "/" will not be tested for crc - skip path entries * add new flag FILE_OPEN_NO_PRELOAD to skip decompressing on open This is used in audit.c, which only tests whether files exist * added error checking to all calls to load_file_zipped Added flags to the CHD metadata entries, encoded in the top bit. Right now it is a no-op, but eventually will be used to indicate which bits of metadata are included in the overall checksum. [Aaron Giles] Fixed gcc 4.4 compilation error. [Belegdol] Fixed auditing of ROM-less systems (for MESS). [Rene Reucher] Another round of static/const qualifier additions, plus a rename of has_addon_chip to snes_has_addon_chip. Notably a number of z80ctc_interface are now const (devicification must have removed the cases where it was dynamically modified). [Atari Ace] Added the correct gfx roms to jjsquawkers bootleg. [David Haywood] sfbonus version cleanups part 1.
