* [[R. Belmont]]

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

* [[AWJ]] updated the taito_x driver:
** fixed sound problems in twinhawk
** fixed a couple of dipswitch mistakes introduced recently
** added PORT_DIPLOCATIONs for superman and twinhawk

* [[Nathan Woods]] improved MSVC compiler support:
** modified vconv to support multiple versions of MSVC based on version info
** added support for more parameter translations
** makefile now displays compiling and linking messages when building vconv

* [[Nathan Woods]] converted the Windows blitters to use the DRC engine for generation. RGB effects are officially broken with this change.

* [[Nathan Woods]] fixed a bug that caused a crash when the -debugscript command line option was used with an invalid filename.

* [[AWJ]] and * [[Aaron Giles]] corrected the ordering of the DIP_PORTLOCATION() macros to be consistent. Multi-bit DIP switches should be specified in LSB-first order. Added a comment to this effect in inptport.h.

* [[Nicola Salmoria]] fixed the background color in the Deco cassette games.

* [[MamePlus!]] fixed a potential crash in the micro3d driver.

* [[R. Belmont]] made improvements to CHD-CD support:
** additional RAW CD sector conversion support, so a game can request e.g. 2048-byte data sectors from a RAW CHD-CD and still get the right data
** reversed CHDMAN error message - now non-RAW CHD-CDs are deprecated
** susume now uses a RAW CHD-CD read directly from an original pressed Konami disc

* [[Andrew Gardner]] made some improvements to the Polygonet Commanders driver:
** adds change_PC() calls to the dsp56k core
** removed hacky dsp56k initialization, enabling, and disabling
** added preliminary implementation of banking hardware tied to the dsp56k in Polygonet Commanders

* [[El Condor]] fixed MSB accesses and latch reading in the 6840 emulator.

* [[R. Belmont]] improved N64 audio output:
** rewrote Audio Interface as a stereo DMADAC (which it actually is), greatly simplifying the code along the way
** fixed AI interrupt semantics

* [[Aaron Giles]] changed a number of games that were incorrectly using IPT_LIGHTGUN to use IPT_AD_STICK instead.

* [[Aaron Giles]] made some preparations for proper multiple screen support. The visible_area and refresh_rate values in the Machine structure are now defined as arrays (1 per screen). The machine_config structure has been altered as well, removing the following fields:
** frames_per_second
** aspect_x, aspect_y
** screen_width, screen_height
** default_visible_area
** vblank_duration
These are all stored per-screen in a new screen_config structure.

* [[Aaron Giles]] reorganized the user interface code to better support the new render system.
