MAME v0.144u5

MAME v0.144u5 is released. MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. When used in conjunction with images of the original arcade game's ROM and disk data, MAME attempts to reproduce that game as faithfully as possible on a more modern general-purpose computer. MAME can currently emulate several thousand different classic arcade video games from the late 1970s through the modern era.

0.144u5 ------- MAMETesters Bugs Fixed ---------------------- - 04594: [Sound] All sets in wiz.c: Missing Sound and/or Music (Darq) - 04590: [Sound] firebarr: Music randomly blocks on the last sound and plays it forever (Alex Jackson) - 04589: [Crash/Freeze] mstworld: Access Voilation before OK (hap) - 04573: [Gameplay] spangbl: Die too quickly during attract mode (timing) (hap) - 04584: [Crash/Freeze] Various sets in namcob1.c: Failure to boot past post or disclaimer screen (hap) - 04582: [Gameplay] bkrtmaq quiztou numanath swcourt swcourtj exvania exvaniaj: some games fails to pass selftest or freeze after copyright information (hap) - 04301: [Sound] cobram3: Game plays using Mach 3 sound effects instead of Cobra Command ones. (Mariusz Wojcieszek) - 04581: [Gameplay] brapboys: game loops on crc check (hap) Source Changes -------------- Fix for inverted RON / REACH buttons in kiwames [Angelo Salese, Fujix] Ported PC CGA device emulation from MESS to MAME, and updated Filetto and Tetris (KR) to use it accordingly [Angelo Salese] Added proper background hook-up for Tetris KR [Angelo Salese] Added preliminary superimposing flag for CGA, and implemented for Tetris KR, now it properly mixes between CGA graphics and external background [Angelo Salese] Added 'buzzer' sound to Filetto and Tetris KR [Angelo Salese] CPS-1 update [Team CPS-1]: * Dumped and added MB63B.1A PAL to slammast and clones (Kold666) * Fixed mbomberj, mbombrd, mbombrdj Q-Sound ROMs labels and locations, added Q-Sound PALs Worked around 0x3d8 VGA reading, and fixed California Chase in using the right VGA card [Angelo Salese] Hooked up a proper VGA card for Psychic Force 2012 (waiting for further info about the VGA card used) [Angelo Salese] Added Tourvision bios ver. 52 [f205v, Corrado Tomaselli] Fixed Atari logo bad colors at POST in Area 51:Site 4 [Angelo Salese] Change 'screen' parameter in SCREEN_UPDATE and SCREEN_EOF callbacks to a reference. Remove redundant machine parameter from SCREEN_EOF. Remove old vestiges of driver_device video_eof override since it wasn't being used. Update all multi-screen games to use separate functions for each screen (calling into common code where appropriate). [Aaron Giles] i8251: Implemented transmit and receive data callbacks [Barry Rodewald] arm7: implemented MMU permission faults [Tim Schuerewegen] arm7: return correct MMU ID Code register values for ARM920T/ARM7500 [Tim Schuerewegen] s3c24xx: lots of changes for future Happy Fish 302-in-1 and Palm Z22 (mess) drivers [Tim Schuerewegen] chdman: fixed -extractcd of images with postgaps. CHDs do not need reconversion, this was an -extractcd problem only. [R. Belmont] Implemented every single documented x87 co-processor opcodes in 386+ CPU cores [Angelo Salese] Converted bitmap_t and rectangle into proper classes. Replaced BITMAP_ADDR* macros with bitmap->pix* functions, and moved bitmap_fill() to bitmap->fill() among other similar changes. Bitmap fields now only available via accessors. Replaced sect_rect with &= and union_rect with |= operators for rectangle classes. Some general cleanup as a result of these changes. [Aaron Giles] Implemented generic functions for RDMSR and WRMSR opcodes in Pentium CPU core (i.e. no MSR is actually hooked up so far) [Angelo Salese] Hooked up device in Savage Quest, dies at floppy error [Angelo Salese] Hooked up devices for X-Tom 3d, gets to BOOT error if you soft reset once [Angelo Salese] segae.c: Updated driver to use the implementation from src/emu/video/315_5124.c and modernized driver. [Enik Land, Wilbert Pol] Bulk converted cliprect * to cliprect & across the system. This makes cliprects mandatory everywhere. In general, cliprects were being correctly passed through the video side of most drivers already, so it is mostly a semantic change. Note that with my previous change, bitmaps have cliprects, so if you just want to clip to the bitmap's boundaries, pass bitmap->cliprect() instead of NULL (which is no longer permitted). [Aaron Giles] 68HC05: CLR instruction should not affect the carry flag. Verified with Freescale programmer's manual. [R. Belmont] Hooked up basic devices in Queen and Midway Quicksilver HWs [Angelo Salese] mcr.c: added twotiger stereo 8-track tape sample playback [italie, Mr. Do, hap] Bulk conversion of bitmap_t * to bitmap_t & . With this change the parameters for the global SCREEN_UPDATE callback match the parameters for the driver_device version. Added allocate() and deallocate() methods to bitmap_t to permit cleaner handling of bitmaps in drivers and modern devices. [Aaron Giles] m680x0: fix case where the MMU trashed memory [R. Belmont] Removed machine.generic.tmpbitmap, VIDEO_START(generic_bitmapped), and SCREEN_UPDATE(generic_bitmapped). In their place, each screen_device now maintains a default bitmap which is automatically copied to the screen on each update if no SCREEN_UPDATE function is provided and if no driver_device::video_update override is present. This bitmap can be found by querying the screen's new default_bitmap() method. [Aaron Giles] Hooked up devices and flash loading for Funky Ball, game currently dies at a Voodoo color DAC register check [Angelo Salese] Removed old C-based interface to astrings. astring exists only as a class now. Updated all stragglers (mostly tools) to use the class form. [Aaron Giles] [MCS48] Fixed I8021/I8022 clock divider. [Curt Coder] CPS-3 update [Team CPS-1]: * Dumped and added Street Fighter III 3rd Strike Euro BIOS, unlocked 2 new sets * Reordered all sets per release date * Minor fixes ARM7: Fixed 39-in-1 booting. [Tim Schuerewegen] aquarium.c: removed region hack, fixed offtune music, fixed testmode [hap] chdman: don't be case sensitive on the input type extension [R. Belmont] OS/2 updates [KO Myung-Hun] Fix four spc700 opcodes which didn't disassemble correctly [kevtris] i386: Moved stack changes to be after protection checks in RETF and IRET Made ARPL protected mode only Added protection checks when MOVing to a segment register. [Barry Rodewald] Added delayed interrupts in idectrl to enable booting on some older bioses [Carl] scsihd.c: Get sector size from CHD metadata to support old 256 bytes/sector SASI drives, and allow hard disk image subdevices. [Curt Coder] started converting steppers to simulate actual behavior in a more logical way, rather than using hardcoded tables [J. Wallace] PGM driver cleanups. [David Haywood] Rainbow Island driver cleanups + rename to avoid mess conflict [David Haywood] Improved puzzli2 protection simulation [iq132] uiimage/diimage: Dumbify the menus and add a control layer [O. Galibert] New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status --------------------------------------------------- Quizard 1.8 [Klaus Sommer, Team Europe, The Dumping Union] Quizard 2.3 [Klaus Sommer, Team Europe, The Dumping Union] New clones added ---------------- Rival Schools: United By Fate (Euro 971117) [Corrado Tomaselli, The Dumping Union] Street Fighter III 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future (Euro 990608) [Layne, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union] Street Fighter III 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future (Euro 990512) [Layne, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union] New games marked as GAME_NOT_WORKING ------------------------------------ USA Pro Basketball (Tourvision PCE bootleg) [Clawgrip] Thunder Blade (Tourvision PCE bootleg) [Clawgrip] Power League IV (Tourvision PCE bootleg) [Clawgrip] Rastan Saga II (Tourvision PCE bootleg) [Clawgrip, AUMAP] Quizard 3.4 [Klaus Sommer, Team Europe, The Dumping Union] Virtuality SU2000 [Phil Bennett, SailorSat] 7 Smash [Yohji, Smitdogg, Charles MacDonald, The Dumping Union]
