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

* [[robzia]] improved offsets of the "normal spites" in the SSV games twineag2, ultrax, and dynagear.

* [[David Haywood]] added a missing video change to the lethalen driver.

* [[Andrew Gardner]] made some improvements to the debugger:
** added ability to tab between views in the disassembly windows
** added a 'cursor' to the dasm view and hooked up navigation keys
** added F4 'run to here' key when the disasm view has focus
** added F9 'toggle breakpoint' key when the disasm view has focus
** enhanced memory view keyboard navigation

* [[David Haywood]] added a workaround for a crash in the sound code under some edge cases.

* [[David Haywood]] fixed background ROM loading in the new wbmlbg set.

* [[wolf676]] overhauled and corrected the DIP switches in the trivia and quiz games in the findout driver.

* [[Roberto Fresca]] added PORT_DIPLOCATION to the airbustr driver.

* [[Eugene Sandulenko]] made TIA-MC1 driver improvements:
** fixed documentation
** hooked game counter and coin lockout
** added save state support

* [[El Condor]] fixed the 6840 counter behavior in continuous mode.

* [[wolf676]] identified some unknown DIP switches in Robby Roto.

* [[Steph]] commited a big update to the arkanoid driver which improves emulation of some bootlegs:
** Interverted 'arkblock' and 'arkbloc2' sets for better comparaison
** Renamed sets :
*** 'arkbl2' -> 'arkmcubl'
*** 'arkbl3' -> 'arkgcbl'
** Changed some games descriptions
** Removed flags from the following sets :
*** 'arkbloc2' (old 'arkblock')
*** 'arkgcbl' (old 'arkbl3')
*** 'paddle2'

* [[Nathan Woods]] fixed a multithreading race condition at startup.

* [[Firewave]] added some minimal validation on the sample rate configuration parameters.

* [[Brian Troha]] fixed a few DIP switches and added diplocation setting for Wonder Stick in the nmg5.c driver.

* [[El Condor]] did a big update to the MPU4 driver:
** added support for reverse clocking in the VFD code.
** changed the 6840 to not run the counter clock if no frequency is specified
** reworked the MPU4 drastically to be more in sync with AGEMAME
** MPU4 video should now be working a little better
** deprecated 6850acia.c, replacing it with a specialized driver

* [[Nathan Woods]] updated core.mak to ensure the make clean will remove file2str.exe.

* [[Aaron Giles]] added a new ROM loading option, ROM_IGNORE() which works just like ROM_CONTINUE() except that you don't need to load the data anywhere. It can be used when larger ROMs are present and only a portion of the data is used. See solomon.c for an example.

* [[Aaron Giles]] removed support for the old debugger.

* [[Aaron Giles]] added a driver_data member to the Machine structure, where drivers can hang data instead of using global variables. Added MDRV_DRIVER_DATA macro so the core can allocate this structure at startup. Added AM_BASE_MEMBER and AM_SIZE_MEMBER which are similar to AM_BASE and AM_SIZE but let you specify a member of a struct hanging off of driver_data. Updated the Turbo driver to use these new features as an experiment.

* [[Aaron Giles]] commited more Turbo driver cleanups:
** doubled the horizontal resolution to better draw analog sprites
** improved Buck Rogers and Subroc video
