Specific Contributions
The known contributions for this version are, in the order specified in the whatsnew:
- Brian Troha and Nicola Salmoria updated LFO information in YMF271 core.
- Lord Nightmare fixed parent relationship between sbrkout3 and sbrkout.
- Harmony removed some magic numbers from machine/psx.c, replaced with defines.
- Lord Nightmare added a change to consistently use Intel notation for hex values in TMS32010 disassembler, rather than a mix of Motorola and Intel notation.
- Dirk Best updated the Z80 core. Check for NOP in interrupt mode 0. This allows code like ei / halt / di to work correctly. A better solution would be to implement full support for arbitrary opcodes in mode 0.
- Luca Elia updated igs017.c:
- Merged in some IGS031 based games (igs_m68.c, tarzan.c).
- Implemented tiles flip x and video disable.
- Added hopper simulation to mgcs.
- Decrypted mgdh.
- iq_132 almost completed decryption of starzan and tarzana.
- David Haywood documented presence of Namco customs on the Pole Position bootleg (Top Racer) sets. Removed Namco devices from bootlegs which don't have them.
- Lord Nightmare and plgDavid (David Viens) updated SN76489/A to have correct PRNG waveforms (a 0 bit was missing at the beginning, and beginning of SN76489 waveform was all 1s instead of 0s as measured on hardware). Added SN94624 (same as SN76489).
- Luca Elia added a IGS blitter based games update.
- Renamed driver to igs011.c and cleaned it up.
- Renamed some sets according to chinese title.
- Implemented hopper in lhb, lhb2, wlcc.
- Decrypted ryukobou.
- Barry Rodewald contributed i386 core fixes.
- Added Nested Task flag, and I/O Privilege flags. They aren't implemented in any way, but can now be set or reset. Can be used to detect a 80386 or later CPU.
- Implemented ENTER instruction.
- Made IRQ vectors treated as 8 bytes when in protected mode, and made the addresses pushed onto the stack 32-bit if the gate descriptor used is a 386 interrupt or trap gate (also when in protected mode, will always be 16-bit if in real mode).
- M.A.S.H. and Tafoid added fixes to default mapping as well as comment/information fixes for Mole Attack.
- Smitdogg and The Dumping Union identified puyoj set as Rev B and corrected various rom names.
- David Haywood improved Super Nova sprite shrinking, used by Gals Panic S2 and Sengeki Striker.
- nightsoil improved dips in Mahjong Vegas.
- Luca Elia added emulation of background graphics (blitter), sound and inputs to skimaxx.c.
- Curt Coder refactored Z80, i8237, and i8257 DMA to use devcb.
- Angelo Salese fixed RGB555 palette RAM format in Soccer Superstars.
- Curt Coder allowed child CPUs to be used in read8/write8 callbacks.
- David Haywood updated the Jaleco Mega System 32 driver.
- Added correct RAM sizes as per Charles McDonald's notes.
- Implemented priority in the same manner as tetrisp2.
- Added shadows via custom mixing (gametngk and tetrisp / tp2m32 are much improved).
- Added the alt tilemap layout used by f1superb for the backgrounds.
- Added f1superb notes and IRQ generation code from nuapete.
- luigi30 added Tournament Solitaire (pcat_dyn) improvements.
- Added newer version of toursol, renamed existing to toursol1 and the new one is now toursol.
- Set toursol date to 1995.
- Set toursol CPU speed to 40MHz.
- David Haywood and Angelo Salese added many improvements to konamigx rendering, specifically improving Soccer Superstars and Rushing Hero.
- Angelo Salese implemented input buffer copy protection in Rushing Heroes, game is now somewhat playable with heavy gfx glitches.
- Angelo Salese fixed Konami GX type 4 protection seed $d15, used to protect a sprite bank in Run & Gun 2 / Slam Dunk 2.
- David Haywood fixed sprite ROM loading in Slam Dunk 2.
- angrylion added missing BLTZAL opcode to the RSP core.
- Tafoid added a control fix for Strike Gunner S.T.G. to allow a 3rd button mapping for each player - thus allowing for the feature of merging ships in 2 player games.
- Lord Nightmare marked cosmic alien colors as wrong, added TODO to the driver for fixing colors. Added new XTAL value for cosmic alien and switched driver to use it.
- Mariusz Wojcieszek fixed colors in Greyhound games.
- [Brian Troha]] restored Final Gorodi and Wyvern Wings to working.
- Angelo Salese fixed gfx decoding and hooked up mc6845 in the Forte Card driver.
- Angelo Salese removed dual layout, added Map base video register and fixed transparent issues in the Jackpot Cards driver.
- R. Belmont added a MC680x0 update.
- Reworked PMMU/core interface so PMMU now sees all cop 0 instructions.
- Improved disassembly of PMMU instructions.
- Preliminary 68LC040 support.
- Fixed disassembly for EC/LC variants of '030/'040.
- Angelo Salese patched NVRAM check in Jackpot Cards, makes the game playable but you cannot save settings so it's not yet working.
- Lord Nightmare trashed the old pre-accurate-clocking STEP based sample averaging scheme from sn76489 and friends, vastly simplifying the code. Made the output bipolar rather than only above the 0 line. Added missing statement to the get_safe_token function for the recently added SN94624.
- David Haywood cleaned up toaplan2 V25 support, enabled Batsugun V25 and added decryption table info for the other games.
- Angelo Salese improved the V25S memory map in Batsugun, now CPUs starts to communicate properly, needs to find & implement the irq that clears the RAM flag and decrypt the relative opcodes in that.
- Mariusz Wojcieszek contributed more Greyhound improvements.
- Added dip switches for Super Poker.
- Improved inputs in Sports Authority.
- Aaron Giles expanded some sound chip tags to specifically indicate they are sound chips (generally, "ay" becomes "aysnd", "fm" becomes "fmsnd", etc).
- Aaron Giles added MIPS3 TLB fixes.
- Now properly generating TLB fill exceptions under correct circumstances.
- TLB exceptions no longer trash low 4 bits of Context.
- Exceptions with the EXL bit set always go to vector 0x180.
- Fixed bug in vtlb code that caused us to lose track of previously registered fixed page ranges.
- Fixed MIPS3 behavior that would not clear out invalid page ranges from the VTLB under certain circumstances.
- Added support for TLB sizes less than 48 entries.
- Fixed TLBMOD exceptions so they also properly set BadVAddr.
- Lord Nightmare added NCR7496 variant to sn76496.c. Updated comments to show which chips are currently verified. Cleaned up comments.
- Harmony fixed the 64-bit crashing issues in N64.

- Phil Bennett replaced model3.c fatalerror() calls with development-friendly logerror() calls. Also allows dayto2pe to boot again.
- Angelo Salese improved the Samurai Shodown 64 2 i/o simulation comms, now inputs work and enters into proper gameplay.
- Fabio Priuli merged some include files and merged audio/fghtbskt.c in drivers/m63.c.
- Lord Nightmare and Justin Kerk Got rid of SN76496's R->OldNoise since it causes problems for gamegear/sms. Changed noise taps accordingly. Redid change to gamegear/sms for XOR vs XNOR, now verified by Justin Kerk. Verified gamegear noise taps thanks to sample provided by Justin Kerk. Add stereo sound support to sn76496.c for gamegear.
- Fabio Priuli added a MDRV_EEPROM_NODEFAULT_ADD macro for drivers which do not need default data size / data.
- Fabio Priuli updated 20pacgal to use EEPROM device. Proper save state support still needs some work (to handle the rom banking mechanism).

- Fabio Priuli added PORT_CUSTOM(eepromdev_bit_r) for EEPROM devices.
- Fabio Priuli fixed wrong order parameters in memset (spotted by Beledgol).

- Angelo Salese improved MCU simulation and added inputs in Beast Busters 2nd Nightmare, it can now reach gameplay mode too.
- Angelo Salese removed Program Counter-based routines in Samurai Shodown 64 1/2, this fixes the first episode that can now be coined up, however it hangs soon after that.
- Jim Stolis renamed drw80pkr to drw80pk2. Appears to be later version and MN jurisdiction specific.
- Team Europe replaced drw80pkr with older dump.
- Jim Stolis added various graphics improvements and corrected colors to drw80pkr. Game boots much farther and cleaner. Additional graphics/memory cleanup and preliminary input support.
- Angelo Salese added a work-around to get to the character screen in Samurai Shodown 64, hangs again after it.
