Added support for wildcards in .flt filter files. You'll need to quote
them to avoid /* being parsed as a comment initiator, like "seta/*.cpp"
on a line including the quotes.
Added an XSLT filter for listing system driver sources, like
mame -lx | xsltproc scripts/xslt/list-system-sources.xslt
Converted the ci subtarget (which isn't really used much) into a .flt
rather than .lua and .lst files.
Added SOURCEFILTER option to specify a driver filter file in your make
options, e.g. like make SUBTARGET=custom SOURCEFILTER=mydrivers.flt (or
put it in your useroptions.mak if you'll be using it a lot). It
functions more-or-less like SOURCES on steroids.
Changed the way system/device source file paths are displayed to suit
the new source layout better. INI file loading hasn't changed, that
still just uses the base file name.
Added overlooked trigger to src/bus.lua to include NES controller bus if
the NES zapper sensor is needed.
Driver projects now use globs to search for files. There's less effort
editing the Lua files when things are moved around. Remember it won't
automatically pick up a change, so if you add/remove/change files, you
should touch makefile to get it to find the change.
Driver projects no longer get the top-level MAME directory as an include
path. This means you need to think about how you structure things and
not introduce nasty circular dependencies.
Subtarget projects can now be generated entirely from .flt files without
the need for separate Lua scripts and .lst files. This has been done
for the arcade, mess and virtual targets. It effectively works like a
SOURCES= build on a large scale. This means you need to organise things
so the dependency genrators can find them.
There's an issue with the mess subtarget right now. For some reason,
decmate2.cpp isn't picking up the dependency on the PDP8 CPU core for
the HD6120 device. I'll debug it later
* Changed name of cards for slot selection to "mdc48" and "mdc824" as
they're unrelated to the later 8*24 GC card.
* Also cleaned up code substantially and got rid of artificial
differences between Display Card 4*8 and 8*24.
* Moved lists of NuBus and SE/30 PDS cards to a common place.
* Got some class declarations out of headers to reduce recompiles.
Started implementing the Macintosh Display Card CRTC. It gives correct
resolutions, although refresh rates are incorrect. Added machine
configuration settings allowing several monitors to be selected.
Implemented the Macintosh Display Card's packed RGB mode. The
base/stride in RGB mode make more sense with this implemented.
Cleaned up the code for the SuperMac Spectrum cards, and fixed the
garbage at the bottom of the screen on the Spectrum/8.
Put a layout with views for common monitor aspect ratios in a place
where cards can use it. This is especially useful for the NuBus cards
that can support portrait monitors.
Factored CRTC and shift register out of Spectrum/8 and added to Spectrum
PDQ. Fixes video mode selection and resolution for Spectrum PDQ.
Implemented vertical interrupt position, stride, line offset and clock
source registers for Spectrum PDQ. Added a hack to work around line end
control not being understood. Also added save state support.
Slightly modernised the Macintosh Display Card (JMFB) device code.
Initialised some driver state class members that were causing System 7
to fail to see files. [Ivan Vangelista]
-----------------------------------
a2600.xml: Asteroids (PAL, rev. 06) [Guru]
Clones promoted to working
----------------------------
Super Treasure Island (Italy, v1.6) [Ivan Vangelista]
- tankbust.cpp: used finders, logmacro and other small cleanups
emu/schedule.cpp: Fixed a few more pessimising assumptions. Gains a few
percent in Ketsui and SNES SuperFX.
util/endianness.h: Added some more operations on endian-swizzlers.
Changed a few more drivers to use them.
sun2.cpp: Fixed uninitialised variable that could cause corrupt video.
Fixed some issues with Visual Studio project generation after the
changes to Windows resource creation.
----------------------------
Borderline (Tranquillizer Gun conversion) [anonymous]
New working clones
------------------
Beta Force [anonymous]
- astinvad.cpp, rollerg.cpp, shootout.cpp: used finders, derived classes and other minor cleanups
Optimised the scheduler's handling of unscheduled timers - gives a 50%
performance improvement in some timer-heavy drivers.
Added better endianness swizzling helpers.
Got rid of some of the OSD input modules' dependence on concrete input
classes from emu.
* Moved protection simulation to devices, and got more games to boot.
* Corrected lamp output mapping for most games.
* Correctly identified more games, and removed bad dumps.
* Organised sets better, and cleaned up some of the implementation.
