- Shica fixed the engine sound in After Burner.
- Olivier Galibert added 054539 sound emulation, used in X-Men, Xexex, GI Joe.
- Olivier Galibert added a new set of functions for alpha blending support, used in Xexex. Porters: you have to support direct mapped 15 and 32 bits video modes. Remember to update osd_alloc_bitmap() too! See osdepend.h for the changes in osd_create_display() and osd_allocate_colors().
- Nicola Salmoria added draw_crosshair().
- Introduced the GAME_IMPERFECT_GRAPHICS flag for game drivers.
- Mitsutaka Okazaki and Sean Young added a standalone YM2413 emulator, giving much better sound in e.g. Pang.
- The DOS version is now compiled with Allegro WIP 3.9.34, this fixes problems with the Sidewinder gamepad. GNU Binutils 2.9.5.1 might also be needed to compile.
- New filtering code for the audio mixer. It is applied to audio streams generated at a sampling rate different from the sound card's one, improving quality. Some examples with a very audible difference are: fantasy, polyplay, galaxian (the background effect when playing), nibbler, vanguard and all the Seta games.
- Andrea Mazzoleni changed the DOS version so the "resamplefilter" option can be used to turn the filtering off.
