Specific Contributions

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

  • Olivier Galibert added various System 24 improvements, fixing priorities, clipping issues etc.
  • Bryan McPhail improved the Lightgun Code / Reload Handling
    • '-lightgun' now enables the lightgun only - no button remapping is performed.
    • '-reload' (formally '-offscreen_reload') is now needed for 2nd button presses to map to offscreen shots.
    • '-dual' (formally '-dual_lightgun') adds support for the Actlabs Dual Lightgun setup, it may be used with and without '-reload' and it requires '-lightgun'. This mode attempts to automatically remap the player 1 & 2 buttons to suit the lightgun setup. If it doesn't work you probably need to delete the .cfg file for that game.
  • Removed '(hack?)' from descriptions of newly added raizing games, stickers on the boards seem to indicate they are genuine Korean release versions.
