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

* [[David Haywood]] started adding support for scrolling reel displays, currently text only, but should be pretty easy to get graphics in there and add different direction scrolling - updating sc4 code to use these new types.

* [[James Wallace]] provided a stepper display output fix.

* [[Roberto Fresca]] provided Amatic Multi Game System driver improvements:
** Identified the slots game as Super Stars.
** Changed am_uslot to suprstar.
** Reworked inputs from the scratch.
** Added support for outputs: lamps & counters.
** Added a button-lamps layout.
** Promoted the game to working state.
** Added technical notes.

* [[Roberto Fresca]] provided Amatic AMA-8000 improvements:
** Renamed amaticmg3 to amaticmg2 since is the AMA-8000-2 system.
** Found the hopper motor signal. Mapped the hopper pay pulse to key 'Q'. Now is possible to payout manually, avoiding the hang for hopper empty or timeout.

* [[Sean Riddle]] fixed video counter reporting on Williams games (should stay at maximum value until reset).

* [[David Haywood]] added ability to add the graphics in the external drwho art file to the new reel structure.

* [[Brian Griffin]] added/filled in about 110 missing Scorpion 4/5 romsets.

* [[Stefano Teso]] updated the Hikaru driver: Added some new technical findings.

* [[R. Belmont]] and [[Firewave]] marked all remaining old-style CDs without gap information BAD_DUMP. These will still run (where applicable), but need to be re-ripped for best accuracy (and proper audio track timing for some Bemani games).

* [[Angelo Salese]] fixed gameplay crash regression in Zero Team.

* [[Curt Coder]] added the clock counter chain and other common functions into device_rtc_interface, removing duplicated code in RTC implementations. Rewrote the Dallas DS1302 to support additional features needed by IDE64 in MESS.

* [[Balrog]] and [[R. Belmont]] fixed invalid ISO C syntax in neogeo driver noted by Clang.

* [[R. Belmont]] fixed PowerPC OS X compile.

* [[Carl]] updated the i386 core: fix for bt? Instructions.

* [[Kevin Eshbach]] and [[The Dumping Union]] updated zaxxon.c: Corrected rom labels and U locations for the Congo Bongo sets. Added the 3 board stack version with correct PBROM. Added additional documentation about the 2 board stack and the 3 board stack.

* [[James Wallace]] updated layouts for numerous slots to take advantage of new reel development.

* [[Takahiro Nogi]] provided clean-ups to sound and fixed volume balance in Nichibutsu Mahjong drivers.

* [[Takahiro Nogi]] updated niyanpai.c: Fixed graphics draw speed.

* [[Pythagoras]] updated cps2.c: fixed vhunt2d and vsav2d rom loading.

* [[Brian Troha]] updated gei.c: Sorted out the correct question roms for Trivia (Questions Series 12) and Trivia (Questions Series 12).

* [[Angelo Salese]] implemented new paletteram_xGGGGGRRRRRBBBBB_byte_le_w() function, used by Chance 32.

* [[Phil Bennett]] fixed missing sprites/HUD regression in Lock-On.

* [[Robbbert]] updated 6551acia.c: m_status_register was not being initialized properly.

* [[Tafoid]] updated rom label.locations for Star Force based on PCB pictures provided by bonky0013.

* [[Carl]] updated the i386 core: Big pmode update.

* [[Brian Troha]] and [[The Dumping Union]] added Rev "H" USA Naomi BIOS.

* [[Team Japump!]] updated the Naomi driver: redumped Azumanga Daioh Puzzle Bobble GD-ROM.

* [[David Haywood]] added basic protection simulation for Battle Emporer, allowing for gameplay to the end.
