reverted names back to just "1" versus multi_fish.001. It was pointed out the actual rom labels read just "1"... though in Igrosoft's list of hashes the full "multi_fish.001" name is used.
Stripped out the "hack" comments per game in lieu of a single comment about the first set being the "official" has while the other sets may be hacks or alt regions version.
- Use DISCRETE_NOTE for pitch generation; it is more accurate (within the one ms where the pitch changes :-) ) and saves a node
- Use DISCRETE_BITS_DECODE and save 2 nodes.
updated rom name based on listed files and hashes listed by Igrosoft. Added additional info about rom changes and found a bad_dump rom so 1 set gets removed.
- decodes individual bits from input values
- Updated drivers which had macro DISCRETE_BITSET (which was a bit misleading)
- This should be slightly faster than using DISCRETE_TRANSROM
Added some 2006 revisions that are at least 3 years old to the driver. Minor formating / white space clean up. Minor header information change / clean up.
Added copyright year to mamedriv.c for the Multifish sets.
New Clones Added
--------------------------------
Fruit Cocktail (060111) [Vampirz]
New Games Added
--------------------------------
Island 2 (060529) [Vampirz]
Pirate (060210) [Vampirz]
Keks (several sets) [Vampirz]
- Split YM2612/3834 to a separate file to avoid disturbing other OPN chips
- SSG-EG, envelope, LFO, and CSM behavior all improved to better match
tested behavior on real YM2612 chips
- Moon Cresta and Galaxian now have their respective schematics emulated, i.e. Moon Cresta has a slightly different mixing stage.
- Cleaned up driver, added some section titles and comments, removed old code.
Discrete sound
- removed global variable discrete_current_context
- discrete_info is now passed instead of device, we may get device by using disc_info->device
- Added DISCRETE_IMPORT(*block): imports another discrete block
- Added DISCRETE_REMOVE(node1, node2): removes a range of nodes
- Added DISCRETE_REPLACE: next node replaces existing node, thus preserving run order
- Added DISCRETE_NOP(node): does nothing, to be replaced.
- Added a prescanning stage to build final block list after execution of the above.
- The additions provide an easy way to document subtle difference between boards.
- Please see audio/galaxian.c for an example

Hello,
Here's a color overlay for spacwalk, based on the photo in this thread:
http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Number=197946
NOTE: this diff is not complete, mame/drivers/mw8080bw.c needs some small
changes manually due to the diff being incorrect for others since I
changed that file already:
at the includes: #include "spacwalk.lh"
at the gamelist: /* 640 */ GAMEL(1978, spacwalk, 0, spacwalk, spacwalk, 0, ROT0, "Midway", "Space Walk", GAME_NO_SOUND | GAME_SUPPORTS_SAVE , layout_spacwalk )

Since I removed the daatable from i8085, and the z180 one is exactly the
same, I might as well remove that one too, see attached diff.
