This emulates arcade games, hacks, and multigames that for some reason or another have not made it to MAME.

0.113.5

-------

 

We would have liked to go straight to 0.114, but due to problems with the build it was decided to stick with the 0.113 core.

 

 

Source changes

--------------

For all pacman, mspacman and jrpacman games:

- added "8" to skip to next level

- added "Fire" to make pacman go twice as fast (where possible)

- connected up flashing led, for those who like such things.

 

Add memory needed by mspachi and mineswp.

 

Fix rom loading for several games.

 

Add missing parents for playchoice, neogeo, pcktgal, and rastan games.

 

Some sets were loading blank roms to fill up space. These are now optional.

 

Most neogeo bioses are now optional.

 

Added missing proms to tempest and clones, spacwarp, asteroi6. (spacwarp still doesn't work)

 

Add missing driver init to bubbleb.

 

Fix incorrect trackball defaults for tehkanwc and clones.

 

Load bbugtest to low memory. (sort of working)

 

Add missing line of code to fix pacman hi-res hacks.

 

Fully emulated timer in mschampx, zolapac and clones. (fixes various bugs)

 

Change screen size for beast, to remove rubbish at the sides. Still has bad screen tearing.

 

Did something to fix npong10.
