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);
New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status

ElSemi said he doesn't want to be credited.
He's dumped them with .iso tracks rather than .bin, but for the purpose of these Naomi GD-ROMs it's not going to matter.
I used the following GDI to convert them
3
1 0 4 2048 track01.iso -8
2 450 0 2352 track02.raw 0
3 45000 4 2048 track03.iso -8
both of these 'require' the MMU.
Generating interrupts in VIDEO_UPDATE isn't really a good idea.
Rendering is now done when requested, to a (for now) fake framebuffer (to be converted)
Anything that writes directly to the framebuffer won't display anymore, although the only thing that does that is the Atomiswave bios which didn't use the right mode anyway.
I plan on putting it back together again, don't worry.
Done:
- AGA palette
- AGA bitplane data fetching
- support for up to 8 standard bitplanes
- HAM8 mode
To do (for devs):
- inputs (buttons/coins are connected as CD32 pad, current implementation (copied from WinUAE) doesn't work, help is welcome)
- sprites (current implementation is incomplete - see CD32 logo)
- incorrect hstart/hstop values in CD32 logo, lsrquiz & lsrquiz2
Added a PCB layout for the large single plane PCB that Incredible Technologies used for the Golden Tee 3D series (3D through Classic), Shuffleshot, World Class Bowling and World Class Bowling Deluxe. [The Guru]

Subject: JPM Impact
Added skeletal support for JPM Impact AWP - this is the last
of the AGEMAME drivers that is worth commiting to the MAME
codebase.
Please note, this is the first patch made using my rebuilt
toolchain, so let me know ASAP if something went wrong.
various cheat types and a table at the top to hopefully alleviate
confusion.

Subject: Cheat.c changes
I've been having a look at cheat.c, the issue with one-shot
list and one-shot select value cheats being indisguishable
from perm cheats. I decided to have a look to see if I get
it closer to the old way. I think I've managed it. I've
attached a diff file..
It changes the One-Shot List or Selectable value cheats to display
"Set" instead of "Off"
It stops the cheat options being activated in order when you are
going through the possibilities These cheats are now activated by
pressing ENTER after you have chosen an option This also pops up
a message (examples):
Activated
Select Starting Stage = 16 (0x10)
or
Activated
Select Temp. Current Shape PL1 = Yellow
Some simple examples to look at:
theroes "Select Starting Stage"
and
tetrist "Select Temp. Current Shape PL1"
