Specific Contributions

The known contributions for this version are, in the order specified in the whatsnew:

• Bryan McPhail and David Graves fixed raster-style effects in Metal Black.

• Nicola Salmoria fixed the NeoGeo raster effects:
  • Pulstar (level 2 boss)
  • AoF (title screen)
  • Double Dragon (levels with water)
  • AoDK (100 mega shock logo - is it correct?)
  • Eight Man (title screen)
  • Super Dodgeball (flames in attract mode)
  • Top Hunter (waves when entering bonus stages).

• Jarek Burczynski fixed linescroll effects in the Taito B system.

• Nicola Salmoria added speech to Champion Wrestler.

• insideoutboy fixed crashes in Land Sea Air Squad.

• Nicola Salmoria added a workaround for the slow PC keyboard interface in the DOS version. This makes it easier to accomplish special moves that require two or three keys pressed at the same time, but delays response by at least one frame. The change doesn't affect josyticks and keypads connected through the game or USB ports.

• 16-bit and 32-bit read memory handlers now have the additional mem_mask argument, like write handlers.

• Removed TRANSPARENCY_THROUGH mode for drawgfx().

• Juergen Buchmueller added NEC UPD7810 CPU emulation.
