Nebula 2.24 posted by ElSemi 7/3/2003

your config folder if you are still getting the red letters)

General Source Changes

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

 

Large Namco Update [Nicola Salmoria]

- pacland: fixed sprite RAM, it was too big and included normal program RAM, causing sprites

  to be drawn twice.

- pacland: fixed irq enable

- pacland: fixed tilemap scroll offsets and sprite positions

- pacland: accurate emulation of tile/sprite priority (including fix of bugs introduced when

  the driver was converted to tilemaps) and sprite visibility area

- pacland36b16 is not a bug - colors match the real game

- added SOUND_NAMCO_CUS30 for better documentation (alias for the standard SOUND_NAMCO)

- drgnbstr36rc2gre

- skykidd works with a patch (a dump of the CUS60A internal ROM is needed to do without the

  patch)

- metrocross: fixed irq enable, this fixes inputs in service mode

- baraduke060gre

- baraduke36rc2gre, it is improved, there are still gaps left but this is correct behaviour

  verified on the real board

- baraduke, system86: understood how sprite RAM buffering works, this fixes sprite lag but

  causes a glitch in rthunder (which might be correct behaviour)

- system86: totally rewritten the 63701X emulation and moved it to a separate module.  Fixed

  silence compression, this improves quality in some samples; supported volume control.

  -genpeitd067gre

- rthundro37b14red I think is fixed; but the game still sometimes crashes when you die

- rthunder, genpetid: fixed watchdog emulation, this allows entering service mode without

  resetting

MESS of course)
