Version 1.52 (August 1, 2005) - "The first light doesn't count!"

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

 

We decided as a team that there's no real need to upgrade to the latest M.A.M.E. core. We now have support for all the CPUs ever used on pinball hardware, and all the other type chips that aren't supported yet won't probably be supported by M.A.M.E. anytime soon either, so we'll stick with the tested, proven, reliable, and FAST older 0.76 core. Why break a good thing?

 

Much to our surprise we've added some nice improvements since the 1.52 beta release just six short weeks ago, so enjoy our latest version!

 

Bugs Fixed

----------

- Fixes for Bally Vector switches

- WMS-S7: Fixed multiplexed solenoids on Defender

- WMS-S4: Defined missing special solenoids on some games

- GamePlan: These games are now well behaved on game over/match

- Bally-35: Fixed switch column 6 on Vector and added some missing sound diagnostic switches

- Spinball: Some improvements and tweaks. These games should work much better now (We still need to find the roms for Verne's World)

- Overflow Interrupt handling improved on I8051 CPU core to help prevent hang-ups on Spinball emulation [Thomas Behrens]

 

- Mr. Game: Video dip switch bug resolved that permanently disabled collision detection
