Documented what's known about the 3d data much better.
Fixed vertex ROM loading for fatfurwa and buriki.
(No games should segfault anymore, but they all appear to use the hardware in different ways,
so this could be fun.)
default values from. Fixed bug in ROM loader that would change the
memory region flags to match devices with no address bus. Updated
groundfx to use the new default loading scheme.
Roms pass the self test, but the 3D is messed up. Aaron will have to check into that.
from the DU list: "credit goes to xrodney (from
Malta, Europe) with the help of HobbyRoms and Patrick McCarron".
This begs the question: shouldn't we remove the auto-init hacks
from games like simpsons? We force most other Konami games to use
the F2/F3 reset technique.

Subject: [patch] Eliminate generic.colorram
To: submit@mamedev.org
Cc: atariace@hotmail.com
Hi mamedev,
generic.colorram and generic.videoram are unused by the MAME core, and
are simply slots convenient for driver use. As such, the drivers are
better off using their own driver_data slots for these. To discourage
further use of colorram, this patch eliminates all current uses of it,
and the uses of videoram as well in the affected drivers. This is
partially a retrograde step, since ideally we'd like to introduce the
driver_data structs as well for these drivers, but eliminating
colorram and disentangling the various uses of generic makes it on the
balance an improvement IMHO.

Subject: Removal of a deprecated function
To: submit@mamedev.org
Hi,
a function in "drawgfx.c" is declared in "deprecat.h"
This function ("decodegfx(...)") is not used any more in the code, so it
could be removed.
Hope this help.
Best regards,
CJ

Subject: Stack Crawl
To: submit@mamedev.org
This patch enables the stack crawl on windows platforms again (bug
3583).
don't mention this part:
I had to download the zips and info text files from softwarethis.com and compare the CRC32 values of the file then match the file with info for the correct rom label. Big thumbs down for the naming convention when dumping the roms (IE: metit2_1.1 ect), but at least a thumbs up for making and keeping the info files with correct label info.
