new NOT WORKING Software List
----
iqunlim_cart.xml: Englisch für Anfänger [TeamEurope]
the vt1682 based InterAct Complete Video Game is basically playable, apart from the 'Shooting games' because I haven't mapped the guns, and some issues with player 2 / alt control schemes in some titles. want to address these (and maybe look for a better solution to some stability issues) before promoting it.

- Set width and endianness for regions, including cartridges
- Make init code safer and more efficient
- De-duplicate some memory maps
- Separate state class for jaguarcd
I've tried to keep this driver from regressing any further than it already has while cleaning up the code and adjusting region usage to comply with the soon-to-be-committed "truth in endianness" requirement. It's possible that some regions should really be 16 bits instead of 32 or vice versa, and/or that DSP endianness may be incorrect.

vboy.xml updates:
* Set width and endianness for all ROM regions
* Added width and endianness for SRAM, assuming all cartridges have 8k*32 SRAM for now
* Removed mirroring - this is an implementation detail
* Removed "slot" features - there's enough information to work this out anyway
bus/vboy updates:
* Made slot probe software part to determine cartridge type
* Made cartridges responsible for installing themselves
* Added support for arbitrary cartridge sizes, assuming simplistic decoding
* Added support for 8-bit and 16-bit SRAM on LSBs
* Added support for EXP space and INTCRO output
* Fixed SRAM not being loaded
bus/generic: added a helper for mapping non-power-of-two memory with simple decoding
cpu/v810: send I/O accesses to program space if I/O space is unconfigured
vboy.cpp: updated for changed slot and CPU code
bus/wswan: added notes
The Virtual Boy software list is still in pretty poor shape. It's
assuming all carts with SRAM have 8k*32, there are a bunch of feature
tags for ICs that don't actually give an IC type, making them useless,
3-D Tetris mentions a battery but doesn't have an SRAM data area,
Virtual Fishing refers to a HY6254ALLJ-10 which isn't a real part (I
assume it means HY6264ALLJ-10 which is an 8k*8 50µA standby SRAM).

gameking.xml : mc_4v19 - 4 in 1 - Warrior + Cleverhawk + Valiant + MetalDeform ('APR 23 05', 512KB cartridge)
the previous mc_4v19 has been made a clone mc_4v19a and description changed to "4 in 1 - Warrior + Cleverhawk + Valiant + MetalDeform ('JUN 16 05', 1MB cartridge)"
the new dump is playable, but from a different revision of the cartridge with only 512KB ROM instead of 1MB meaning the dump of this one is complete. Presumably the 1MB versions exist either as bugfixes, or as a crude copy protecton against people with 512KB flash carts.

redumped gameking mc_4v08 [Team Europe]
confirmed parent set of gameking Dino Adventure Legend was just a bad dump of the good one and removed it [Team Europe]
confirmed that many of the gameking 4-in-1 dumps are half size, and marked them as such [Team Europe, David Haywood]
changed tag from supported="no" to supported="partial" on the game king dumps that aren't bad dumps, as they appear to be playable without sound.
* style more consistent with c sources (nw)

* New prototypes:
gamegear:
Sonic the Hedgehog Chaos (Euro, Prototype 19930517) [Hidden Palace]
sms:
Sonic the Hedgehog Chaos (Euro, "Ver 0.20", Prototype 19930630) [Hidden Palace]
Sonic the Hedgehog Chaos (Euro, Prototype 19930713) [Hidden Palace]
These prototypes are believed to have been solely burned for Sega Europe/UK, and thus are all labeled "Euro".
* Mark sms/sonicc630 as not working, as it somehow crashes after the title screen.
renamed sonicc in gamegear.xml from "Sonic Chaos" to "Sonic the Hedgehog Chaos" to maintain consistency (box art for Game Gear release packaging says "Sonic the Hedgehog Chaos" too) as well, while correcting a capitalization error for actionfg0.
* Hit Squad ➡️ The Hit Squad
This is a brand/label of Ocean. See any of their packaging to verify it's "The Hit Squad".
* Tentatively add more C64 tape dumps
* Add some more UK C64 tapes
It's a start...
* Hewson (Rack IT) ➡️ Rack It
It looks like the publisher should take the form "Label" rather than "Company (Label)", judging by "The Hit Squad" (Ocean), "Mastertronic Added Dimension" (Mastertronic), etc., so let's be consistent about that.
Also, it's "Rack It", not "Rack IT". See e.g. the scan-in at https://archive.org/25/items/uta_Steel_1988_Hewson_Rack_IT_7197/uta_Steel_1988_Hewson_Rack_IT_7197_screenshot.jpg which shows the label name for both the copyright and address.
* Use labels consistently
Gremlin Graphics (GBH) ➡️ GBH
Grandslam (Bug Byte) ➡️ Bug Byte
CDS Software (Blue Ribbon) ➡️ Blue Ribbon
* Add tape
