the descriptions given with the submission were misleading, in general it looks more like added sets, and an attempt to hook up the actual ARM on the other games where we have dumps.

Subject: few small bugfixes
Hi,
enclosed please find a patch to fix the following small issues:
1. MT 3031 bug: a wrong tag caused P2 Button 3 to overwrite P1 Button 3 in seganinj (pointed out by stephh, you can credit him if you like)
2. MT 3029 bug: a recent megasys1 inputs clean up (I think in 129u1) messed up Demo_Sound settings
3. MT 3024 bug: jrpacmbl used wrong tags in the memory map (pointed out by hyrulian, you can credit him if you like)
4. MT 2864 bug: pleiads and capitol do not use Button 2 (nothing is connected, as documented by Phil Bennett in the report), hence I removed it from their input ports
if the patch doesn't apply cleanly in the wip tree, let me know and I will split it into separate diffs.
Regards,
Fabio

Subject: MT 2999 fix
Enclosed please find a patch to add the three missing buttons in taotaida. I'm still looking for confirmations about taotaido being a proto, hence I haven't changed their descriptions.

Subject: model2 inputs
Hi,
enclosed please find a patch to implement model2 inputs through direct AM_READ_PORT access rather than using read handlers. The patch also fixes daytona brakes (which were previously labeled with the wrong tag)
Patch based on MAME 0.130u1 but I hope that there haven't been too many changes in the meanwhile.

Fabio Priuli

Subject: a couple of patches
Hi,
I hope it's not too late for 130u2. However, enclosed you can find
* pedal.diff : a patch which (finally) fixes driving games using P2 & P3 pedals and buttons for P1 pedals and view buttons (MT 2172 bug). I also added PORT_NAMES to view/gear buttons even if usually MAME drivers don't because it makes easier remapping these games with ~15 buttons. I hope I haven't broken any convention.
* taitof3.diff: a patch which simplifies input handling in taito F3 games. Depending on the status of the driver, you may also consider the possibility to remove entirely f3_control_r and simply use AM_READ_PORTs to read inputs (for now, I left there the handler because of the read accesses logging)
Let me know if there is any problem in applying the patches.
Regards,
Fabio
for all sets in the driver. I used the scanned manuals for the games I could
find - Pirate Treasure being the one I could not find.
- I adjusted the MAIN_CPU clock rate for Leprechaun + clones as well as
Pirate Treasure due to the "plain english" detail in the manaul for Pot of Gold.
I added defines for these in SRC\MAME\INCLUDES\GAMEPLAN.H and adjusted
the MACHINE_START_DRIVER for leprechn to use these new clock speeds.
Some playing with the new speeds do not seem to show any new ill effects.

"Page 10: 3.2 Game Computer
The Game Computer uses a 6502 central processor in a conventional
computer architecture containing ROM, RAM, and I/O ports. The
computer clock uses a standard 4.00 megahertz crystal which is divided
by 4 to provide a CPU clock of 1 megahertz."
- I fixed a bug in the DIPs related to Lives value being incorrect for leprechn
but correct for the other two sets (leprechp, potogold). I put up a bug report
(#3068) and have since corrected it.
This .DIFF is based on 0.130u1 sources.

Subject: Sound banking fix for galpani2
Hi, I'm submitting a fix for the current sound banking in galpani2 driver.
I still wasn't able to correctly place the extra sound rom in galpan2g,
but I moved it to oki1, as its pages size is similar.
I've also separated the inputs for gp2se, as it's service mode clearly
shows there are some diferences, mainly with the card dispenser dip.
From all of these, it's clear that this driver incuded 3 different types of
board: galpani2/galpan2t/galpan2g, galpan2j/gp2quiz and gp2se,
the code also reflects these grouping.
Some memory accesses were still not mapped, I've also added them.
It would be very useful to have a video recording of the original, there
are several graphic effects that clearly aren't correct.
And finally, a little something for the okim6295 source, getting rid of that
"magic" value for the sake of readability. ;-)
Keep on the good work.
Regards,
Luis Faria

Guru dumped this and I added it, all the roms matched the parent except 1. I attached it and the diff.

- accept IRQs on IDLE
- actually count irq processing and instruction fetching cycles
- add support for external serial frame sync with internal
triggering (aka TXM=1 and FSM=1).

To boot sfz3u:
1) use bios 7 (default bios gives an error 2: "region error");
2) enter into service mode first (probably a JVS issue);
