Specific Contributions
The known contributions for this version are, in the order specified in the whatsnew:
- Andrew Gardner made improvements to the Polygonet Commanders driver:
- Implemented various dsp56k opcodes
- Polygonet Commanders now gets past the memory tests
- Pierpaolo Prazzoli fixed the background color in perfrman.
- Nathan Woods merged in some MESS-specific PC support code.
- Tomasz Slanina added a mosaic effect to valtric.
- David Haywood fixed colors in Honey Dolls.
- Derrick Renaud added the final filtering stages to the sound, proper watchdog and memory mirroring to the circusc driver. Also added PORT_DIPLOCATION info and save state support.
- Nathan Woods updated vconv.c to support preprocessor and assembly file output in MSVC builds.
- Brian Troha improved DIP switches for Honey Dolls and Twin Adventure.
- Derrick Renaud removed the "Autocenter Speed" menu entry for Analog Controls that do not use it.
- Derrick Renaud added a "Digital Speed" of 0 in the "Analog Controls" menu. This will cause the control to only inc/decrement once per button press no matter how long the button is pressed. Remember this is still scaled by the "Sensitivity" setting.
- Derrick Renaud scaled Windows mouse Z axis by 30 to make it usable. Most mice inc/decrement by 120 for each wheel click. Some rare ones are 30. So this means for most mice, using a Sensitivity setting of 25%, you will get 1 inc/decrement for each wheel click.
- Mamesick cleaned up the cclimber driver, replacing hacks for cannonb with a separate video update callback.
- David Haywood moved the ST-V protection related code into stvprot.c and added some notes about the decathlete protection and renamed stvhacks to stvinit, because it contains most of the inits as well as the speedhacks.
- Roberto Fresca did a major funworld driver rewrite:
- Merged/splitted some machine drivers, memory maps and inputs.
- Unified get_bg_tile_info for all games.
- Mapped the input buttons in a better format (all games).
- Added proper color PROM decode routines.
- Splitted the driver to driver/vidhrdw.
- Corrected the screen size and visible area to magiccrd.
- Added the remaining 2 GFX planes to magiccrd; GFX are imperfect.
- Royalcrd: Added all inputs and DIP switches.
- Fixed jolycdcr gfx to 4bpp.
- Other fixes to get jolycdcr running.
- Managed royalcdb to work, using the 2nd half of program ROM.
- Managed jolycdit to work, but with imperfect graphics.
- Fixed CPU clock to 2MHz. in all remaining games.
- Fixed ay8910 frequency based on elephfam audio.
- Fixed ay8910 volume in all games to avoid clipping.
- Reworked jolycdcr, jolycdit inputs.
- Set jolycdat as bigdeal clone.
- Added the bipolar PROM and GAL to jolycdit.
- Added color PROMs to cuoreuno and elephfam sets.
- Corrected jollycrd screen size and visible area.
- Hooked, wired and decoded the color prom in jollycrd sets.
- Wired and decoded the color prom in cuoreuno and elephfam sets.
- Wired and decoded the color prom in royalcrd.
- Hooked, wired and decoded the color prom in bigdeal sets.
- Decrypted jolycdit gfx roms.
- Decrypted jolycdae and managed the planes to show correct colors.
- Nathan Woods made minor Unicode changes for the Windows code.
- Aaron Giles added serial in/out support to the Amiga hardware. Added hooks for output pins and light pen positioning. Also fixed the horrible static at startup in the debug build.
- Aaron Giles reorganized the laserdisc support a bit to accommodate new players. Added Sony LDP-1450 support.
- Aaron Giles added a new render texture format TEXFORMAT_YUY16, which is used to hold 4:2:2 Y/Cb/Cr format pixels. Updated the Windows Direct3D code and the software renderers to use this format directly.
- Aaron Giles added a new render texture fromat TEXFORMAT_PALETTEA16, which is the same as TEXFORMAT_PALETTE16 but respects the alpha component of the palette entry. Updated the Windows Direct3D code and the software renderers to use this format.
- Aaron Giles changed the render system to respect blendmodes for screen elements rather than hard-coding them. This allows individual VIDEO_UPDATE routines to do their own compositing.
- Aaron Giles removed the illusion from the rendering system that you could pass in arbitrary palettes. The system palette is all that is supported.
