Battlezone - updated to use new module. Adjusted sound levels. Adjusted engine frequency. Remember there is a slider to adjust the frequency.
Donkey Kong Jr. - set noise clock to a fixed measured frequency. (Speed optimization)
(Also makes the code prettier in parts)
(The dsp now goes into its calculation loop, but some
opcode doesn't set flags properly, so it never drops
out of the loop).
Don't credit me in the whatsnew
This is only the rom defs, the former "bootleg upgrade" looks to be a bootleg of this new official set.
Some who knows what they're doing needs to hook up the fd1094 decryption routine and check the CPU1 roms are loading in correctly. The CPU2 roms should be correct.
credit those listed by Yasu in his original email describing the upload please.
This following is not worth mentioning yet.
Started the new 74LS624 code. Called it DISCRETE_74LS629 for now, until it is ready to replace the old code. You can enable it in dkongjr and mario using the USE_LS629 define.
I still need to work out the threshold/range relationship. I'm having the old schrodinger's cat problem. I need to measure the cap threshold, but doing so changes it. I'll work it out.
- Increased number of JVS analog channels for driving games [R. Belmont]
- Protection data added for Crazy Taxi, Jambo! Safari, and Virtua Tennis 2
[Deunan Knute, ANY]
This gets 18 Wheeler and Jambo! Safari (and maybe other games with analog
controls?) to boot and run.

Draw Poker Hi-Lo (Japanese) [Roberto Fresca]
Types are pretty much unified now.
Multiply operations are handled by eminline.h.
Divide operations were just silly in macros.
64/32-bit combination/extraction macros moved to osdcomm.h and renamed.
Also fixed compile errors in recent 68k changes.
