As usual, if you want to use homebrew, DO NOT UPDATE. If you don't mind being restricted to UMD games, go right ahead and update.

Mamedev.org put up newest and I think last release before 0.119 hits the intrawebs.

Grab the release.

Source Changes

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

Updated TMS5220 core to use shifts instead of divides for the

parameter interpolation. Also added support for internal clamping to

8-bit output when using the internal DAC. [Lord Nightmare]

 

Fixed regression that caused CHD games to crash if the CHD was not

present. Also fixed change that required write access to CHDs. [smf]

 

Fixed CHD search paths again so that they look in parent

subdirectories. [Aaron Giles]

 

Fixed security cassette contents to get Guitar Freaks 3rd Mix

(GE949 VER. JAB) in game. [smf]

 

Exposed core_vfprintf(), and implemented mame_vfprintf() in terms of

that call. [Nathan Woods]

 

Some improvements to the Wheels + Fire driver. Still not right.

[David Haywood]

 

Added SCSIOP_GET_INQUIRY_BUFFER to scsicd & scsihd. [smf]

 

MB86233 core changes: [ElSemi]

* fixed a double move opcode

* added a previously unknown double move opcode

 

Changed the way MAME handles options internally. Changed

mame_options_init() to return a core_options object, which is now

passed into mame_execute(). Moved mame_options() to mame.c, which is

now only valid while the emulation is running. Audit functions now

take a core_options parameter. [Nathan Woods]

 

More HD6309 fixes: [Tim Lindner]

* the SEXW instruction not longer clears the overflow flag

* now generating an illegal instruction trap if invalid registers

specified for TFM

 

Changed Windows message filtering to only apply to MAME game windows.

[Nathan Woods]

 

Improved graphics and cleaned up driver for srmp6.

[David Haywood, Tomasz Slanina]

 

Made a cleanup pass through the new x86emit.h code emitters, changing

the way memory is referenced and replacing macros with inline

functions. [Aaron Giles]

 

Updated MIPS and PowerPC drc cores to use the new emitters. Removed

the old macro-based ones in x86drc.h. [Aaron Giles]

 

Added save state support to pacland. [Aaron Giles]

 

Made -autoframeskip aware of the -speed setting. [Aaron Giles]

 

Fixed stack buffer overrun in install_mem_handler() that broke the

Hyperstone-based games under gcc 4.2.1. [Aaron Giles]

Come On Baby [MooglyGuy]

L.S.D has posted a new review of Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops for the PSP.

When Konami announced Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops, all the MGS fans rejoiced. Finally,

the fans do not have to put up with the blaphesmy which is the Metal Gear Acid series.

They are fun in their own rights, but let face the fact: It is not MGS if they don't have

the real time stealth actions, over-the-top character design, beautiful cut-scenes and

thought-provoking story lines. I am not an avid fan of MGS series but I do love playing MGS

on PSX and MGS2 (but the sissy Raiden can just go and die). So, will Metal Gear Solid Portable

Ops (will be called MGS PO hence onwards) fulfilled all the fans' desires? Read on.
