multislot support [David Haywood]
Please note: launching convention for Neo-Geo games is now the same as
MESS software lists "mame neogeo gamename" or "mame neogeo -cart
gamename".
sc4cckey (Casino Crazy Fruits Gold (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 1))
sc4cfg (Crazy Fruits Gold Casino (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 1))
sc4cckeya (Casino Crazy Fruits Gold (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 2))
sc4cfga (Crazy Fruits Gold Casino (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 2))
sc4cckeyb (Casino Crazy Fruits Gold (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 3))
sc4cfgb (Crazy Fruits Gold Casino (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 3))
sc4cckeyc (Casino Crazy Fruits Gold (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 4))
sc4cfgc (Crazy Fruits Gold Casino (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 4) (set 4))
All 4 of the duplicate "Crazy Fruits Gold Casino" titles were deleted and the additional revisions D through K were added as clones to the sc4cckey parent set.
Evidence comes from both the headers printed from the roms themselves, stating the name of the game as well as the fact that there is documents (marquees/game images/youtube videos) supporting the fact that "Casino Crazy Fruits Gold" is the actual title - the other title doesn't exist in any type of google search except for those site related to or who reference MAME. (nw)
sc1dyncl (Dynamite Club (Bellfruit) (Scorpion 1)) shared 100% of the same roms with
sc1clbdya (Club Dynamite (Global) (set 2))
With an observation of the machine's ram when starting either game you can plainly see that Club Dynamite (Global) is correct for this set. (nw)

Arcana Heart Full [Tormod, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]
Comments from Haze: Note, I haven't marked this as a bootleg, but 75% of the rom is actually MAME ROM zips, they've clearly recycled flash chips from one of the MAME multi-boots, so I have a feeling that this might have been a 3rd party upgrade. I doubt they shipped like this from the factory, so I've added a comment to that effect because it should definitely be verified against other copies of the game at some point.

Novo Play Multi Card: Added PIAs connections layout, added 'Allow
Autohold' DIP switch. [Roberto Fresca, Rob Ragon]
(not-for-whatsnew section)
Note: extremely preliminary. No music, just sfx. No per-voice volume/panning. No attempts to optimize. Lots of hardcoding for how the CV1000 uses the chip. I will fix all of these later, but I gotta get to sleep now ;-)

Kasino '89 [Roberto Fresca, Rob Ragon, Tomasz Slanina]
----------------
Bad Lands (bootleg, alternate) [Tomasz Slanina]
Comment: Took this dump and filled out the bad dumps in the first bootleg set (badlandsb). The only real difference noticed was a changed z80 program rom.
- Verified through playtesting, manuals and in-game service modes all dips in the driver. Consolidated and added Dip Locations based on all available information.
- Changed Q*bert and Q*bert's Qubes joystick layout to 8-Way to allow for diagonals to be not only be mapped but used if desired.
Merged my driver with Angelo's... Added NVRAM, corrected the RAM area, fixed CPU and AY8910 clocks, added the initialized port outs. Figured out: completed coinage, coin lock, demo sounds, payout mode and percentage DIP switches. Also added DIP locations. [Roberto Fresca]
