- Created devices for the galaxy games carts (EEPROM + Flash + PIC) and the slot(s)
- Removed code patches and emulated the PIC communication and bank switching
- Converted the blitter to a device (cesblit.cpp)
- moved the Galaxy Games from tmaster.cpp to their own driver (galgames.cpp)
Provided the PIC code for all four StarPak cartridges [Keith M. Kolmos]
New working machines

Galaxy Games StarPak 3
[Keith M. Kolmos, Rod_Wod, Sean Sutton, Soren Skou Nielsen, Russell Howard, Francis Ramirez,
Tourniquet, BrianT, coolmod, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union, Luca Elia]
- Create EFO, Promat, Terminal, Wing projects to help reduce the weight of libmisc
- Eliminate Veltmeijer Automaten project (only two games by this company are in MAME, and one actually on Excellent System hardware)
m68705: expose more more internal registers through the state interface
* shows contents of registers that can't be read by program code
i8251: make receive more reliable clean up a little
zorba: meat on the bones
* create emulated keyboard device
- 88 of 96 matrix keys identified, 6 of 8 DIP switches identified, 3 of 6 outputs identified
* connect IEEE-488, RS232 and Centronics ports
* hook up all IRQ sources and connect PIT to UARTs
* more notes
osborne1, gladiatr: use input changed member (nw)
* remove non-obvious mcu_status_r and semaphore_r members and move to drivers (varies by system)
* slap fight functionality can be safely folded into base class so do so
* remove leftover crud from driver state classes
qix.cpp, bub68705, changela: use new MC68705P3 core
- Conversion of the Cedar Magnet board from a base device class to a mix-in interface
- Emulate EFO ZSU as main variant of the Cedar Magnet sound board
- Hook up ZSU1 to Skill Flight and Phantom Ship
- Modernize ZSU soundlatch/IRQ mechanism
- More hardware notes (nw)
- Various associated code cleanups (nw)
we've been sitting on this for a while, progress was shown a few years ago, but is apparently lost. Smitdogg should be able to clarify the exact part numbers, they're not readable in the pictures.
Mario driver now uses netlist audio implementation instead of discrete
implementation. The previous discrete sound emulation has not been
removed yet because it still contains a lot of documentation.
