MAME v0.145 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.

What's news in MAME v0.145:

0.145 ------- Happy 15th Anniversary! Over its 15 years of existence since MAME 0.01 was released for MS-DOS with an initial library of 5 sets, MAME has grown exponentially to the point that no one thought we would be, boasting 18,650 different sets and operable on more OS platforms than thought possible. While video-based arcade games were the original targets for MAME, the scope of the project has grown to include documentation of virtually all coin-operated amusement devices including gambling (video/slots), coin droppers, pinball machines and more. Through the efforts of the literally thousands of developers, players and others who have provided assistance and feedback over the project's history, we would like to thank all of them that made this possible!

(Curt Coder) Source Changes -------------- Rewrote tilemap.c as a C++ class. For now kept the global functions and just inline mapped them to the class. Will do a pass soon to actually update drivers to use the C++ methods directly. Also, the tilemap callbacks are now delegates which should make for cleaner integrating into modern devices and drivers going forward. [Aaron Giles] Add libjpeg; converted Sliver to decompress pictures on the fly [David Haywood, R. Belmont] Remove support for 4bpp packed graphics. These only manifested for drivers that used GFX_RAW support for 4bpp systems, and yet we had a bunch of extra code to support it. Updated these drivers to do without it and removed all the extra code for supporting it. [Aaron Giles] tagmap is just a C++ template now. Added iterators to it as well. Updated a few outlying uses. [Aaron Giles] VGA: Fixed Double Scan / Maximum Scan Lines condition, and removed a bunch of kludges [Angelo Salese] CGA: fixed display disable read flag [Angelo Salese] i386: BTR and page fault fixes [Carl] i386: basic implementation of FIST and FBLD FPU instructions.

[Tafoid] i386: fixed a bug with JCXZ opcode [Carl] Changes for GCC 4.7 compatibility [Belegdol] Added FLAC (lossless audio) codec support plus experimental hooks in samples and chdman. Bumped up CHD-CD hunk size to get better compression ratios on both zlib and flac. [David Haywood, R. Belmont] i386: Made stack limit checks better handle the difference between 16 and 32-bit stacks in IRET and RETF. [Barry Rodewald] i386: Stopped IOPL from being changed by IRET when CPL is zero. [Barry Rodewald] ppu2c0x: converted NES PPU to be a modern device. [Fabio Priuli] Further Stepper clean-ups [J. Wallace] floppy: Do specific UI handling [O. Galibert] Added Pluto 5 technical notes about clocks, EPROM config, and addresses/data scrambling for different EPROM types on 16-bit mode.

Belmont] SDL: don't show misleading message for .BDF UI fonts [R. Belmont, The Flying Ape] i386: Major update to segment limit and protection checking. [Carl] Fixed VGA memory map writes [Grull Osgo] New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status --------------------------------------------------- Steal See (& Get Land) [N. A. Jimenez, M. Krug, ShiggsUnderground, C. Stefano, Ted Bailey, R. Mucciarelli, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union] New clones added ---------------- Carrier Air Wing (bootleg) [Bonky0013] (not working) Flying Shark (bootleg, set 2) [Bonky0013] Arcana Heart [Dumping Union] Rapid Fire v1.1 (Build 238) [Brian Troha, The Dumping Union] New games marked as GAME_NOT_WORKING ------------------------------------ Ichi Ban Jyan [Guru] Mushiking The King Of Beetle 2K3 2nd [f205v, The Dumping Union] Virtua NBA (prototype) [Arzeno Fabrice] Popo Bear [R.

Galibert] vamphalf.c: Added correct speedup for Toy Land Adventure. Demoted Mr. Kicker to not working again. There is a serious bug with the nvram handling (possibly due to a core bug) which causes the game to break entirely if you get a high score and it rewrites nvram. [Dave Haywood] i386: Made a start at Virtual 8086 Mode. Not fully working yet, though. Fixed an issue where two address or operand size prefixes would cancel each other out. [Barry Rodewald] Optimized PGM video rendering for a speedup in some video heavy cases [David Haywood] Reinstated the old KOV protection simulation given that the ARM still hasn't been dumped [David Haywood] arm7: some code reorganization, used a jump table for a small speedup [David Haywood] i386: Fixed high bits in eflags register from being changed by POPF, and VM and IF flags from changing depending on privilege level. Fixed exception error codes in protected mode. Further work on virtual 8086 mode. EMM386 will now load, but will still die a few seconds later. [Barry Rodewald] Enabling load of multi part softlist items on all available device [Fabio Priuli] ARM7: Gave ARM mode its own file & cleaned up formatting/indenting [David Haywood] i386: Bit more progress towards getting 386 enhanced mode Windows running. [Carl] beaminv.c: added color overlay [MASH] Added support for 2 drives on IDE controller [Miodrag Milanovic] Major bitmap-related changes throughout the system: [Aaron Giles] There are almost certainly some regressions lurking. Let me know if something seems busted. Bitmaps are now strongly typed based on format. bitmap_t still exists as an abstract base class, but it is almost never used. Instead, format-specific bitmap classes are provided: bitmap_ind8 == 8bpp indexed bitmap_ind16 == 16bpp indexed bitmap_ind32 == 32bpp indexed bitmap_ind64 == 64bpp indexed bitmap_rgb32 == 32bpp RGB bitmap_argb32 == 32bpp ARGB bitmap_yuy16 == 16bpp YUY For each format, a generic pix() method is provided which references pixels of the correct type. The old pix8/pix16/pix32/ pix64 methods still exist in the short term, but the only one available is the one that matches the bitmap's pixel size. Note also that the old RGB15 format bitmaps are no longer supported at all. Converted model1, megadriv, and stv drivers away from the RGB15 format bitmaps. New auto_bitmap__alloc() macros are provided for allocating the appropriate type of bitmap. Screen update functions now must specify the correct bitmap type as their input parameters. For static update functions the SCREEN_UPDATE macro is now replaced with SCREEN_UPDATE_RGB32 and SCREEN_UPDATE_IND16 macros. All existing drivers have been updated to use the correct macros. Screen update functions are now required for all screens; there is no longer any default behavior of copying a "default" bitmap to the screen (in fact the default bitmap has been deprecated). Use one of the following to specify your screen_update callback: MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_STATIC(name) - static functions MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DRIVER(class, func) - driver members MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DEVICE(tag, class, func) - device members Because the target bitmap format can now be deduced from the screen update function itself, the MCFG_SCREEN_FORMAT macro is no longer necessary, and has been removed. If you specify a screen update callback that takes a bitmap_ind16, then the screen will be configured to use a 16bpp indexed bitmap, and if you specify a callback that takes a bitmap_rgb32, then a 32bpp RGB bitmap will be provided. Extended the bitmap classes to support wrapping a subregion of another bitmap, and cleaner allocation/resetting. The preferred use of bitmaps now is to define them directly in drivers/devices and use allocate() or wrap() to set them up, rather than allocating them via auto_bitmap_*_alloc(). Several common devices needed overhauls or changes as a result of the above changes: * Reorganized the laserdisc base driver and all the laserdisc drivers as modern C++ devices, cleaning the code up considerably. Merged ldsound device into the laserdsc device since modern devices are flexible enough to handle it. * Reorganized the v9938 device as a modern C++ device. Removed v9938mod.c in favor of template functions in v9938.c directly. * Added independent ind16 and rgb32 callbacks for TMS340x0 devices. * All video devices are now hard-coded to either ind16 or rgb32 bitmaps. The most notable is the mc6845 which is rgb32, and required changes to a number of consumers. * Added screen_update methods to most video devices so they can be directly called via MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DEVICE instead of creating tons of stub functions. Added new template device_delegate which wraps a regular delegate and includes a string pointer to a device tag, which can be simply resolved later. Converted the screen_update delegates to to be based on this. Changed the mechanism by which screen formats are auto- deduced. Converted SCREEN_EOF to use these delegates as well, so now there is MCFG_SCREEN_EOF_STATIC/ DRIVER/DEVICE just like MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE. Death to SCREEN_EOF, which was ambiguously called either at the start or end of VBLANK depending on the video flag VIDEO_UPDATE_AFTER_VBLANK. Replaced with SCREEN_VBLANK callbacks which are called both at the start and end of VBLANK, so you can operate either way, and be explicit about it. Updated all callers. Also updated screen_device to use device timers and some other minor cleanups. Beginning to implement page faults [Carl] Created new testcpu driver that shows how to develop an empty test driver that (ab)uses the core to single step a CPU executing arbitrary instructions and capturing before/after state and tracking memory. Currently this driver is always compiled, but is not referenced in mame.lst. [Aaron Giles] Cleanup of bitmap classes now that formats and bpp are dictated strictly by the type. Also added code to more aggressively align the bitmap base and rowbytes, and create a resize method which attempts to re-use existing memory rather than always reallocating. [Aaron Giles] i386: Added I/O permissions. [Carl] Added new method screen_device::register_screen_bitmap which allocates a given bitmap to match the screen size and resizes it as appropriate when the screen size changes. Updated all the obvious spots in the code where this could be leveraged. [Aaron Giles] Move allocate/resize methods in the bitmap classes down into bitmap_t because they no longer have any dependency on the bitmap format or type. Ensured that the bitmap's palette remains set across a resize call (it is lost doing an allocate). [N64] Various changes: [MooglyGuy, Happy] * Converted AI / VI / MI / RI / SI / PI into a modernized device * PI DMA now takes place after an appropriate delay to simulate transfer time - SP DMA no longer rejects transfers of 0 bytes (should transfer one 8-byte word) x87: fix for single-precision operations [Peter Ferrie] Capcom ZN-1 update [Team CPS-1]: * Redumped and fixed MASK ROMs in ts2, ts2j to match real pcb (Smitdogg, The Dumping Union) * Minor fixes New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status --------------------------------------------------- Toy Land Adventure [f205v, The Dumping Union] New clones added ---------------- Gals Panic S - Extra Edition (Europe) [Hartenberger, arcadiabay.de] Western Gun Part II [Andrew Welburn, Bela Harcsa] New games marked as GAME_NOT_WORKING ------------------------------------ Shin Nihon Pro Wrestling Toukon Retsuden 4 Arcade Edition [f205v, The Dumping Union] Touch de Uno! 2 [f205v, The Dumping Union] 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.
