AdvanceMAME v3.0 Changelog:
* Now the AdvanceMAME package contains AdvanceMAME, AdvanceMESS and AdvanceMENU.
* Customized for Raspberry Pi fixing various issues and improving performance, functionality and documentation Check the install.txt file for some more information about the use with a Raspberry Pi. The most important note is to run the Advance programs directly from the Linux Console and outside the X-Window graphics environment to be able to use the Raspberry hardware acceleration.
* Improved syncronization to remove tearing with the Linux FrameBuffer.
* Added a new category.ini installed automatically, that is used automaticaly by AdvanceMENU.
* Added a new 'display_aspect' option that replaces the old 'display_aspectx' and 'display_aspecty'. This one allows aspect autodetection with 'auto'. You have to manually adjust the advmame.rc file if you are using the old ones.
* Changed the default of 'display_expand' to 1.25. This value allow to fill better a wide screen with old games. If you like more correct aspect, select 1.0.
* Add a new AdvanceMENU 3x2 tile mode called "tile_tiny".
* Better autoconfiguration for AdvanceMENU to be able to detect and configure AdvanceMAME and AdvanceMESS at the first run.
* Change the default AdvanceMENU main and screen saver mode to animate all the clips.
* In Linux if the system time is wrong ensure that the generated XML list files are not updated every time.
* Added new SSE2 blitters that replace the older MMX ones
