[Andrew Gardner] SCSI hard disk updates: [R. Belmont] - Added FORMAT UNIT, READ (6 byte), WRITE (6 byte), READ (12 byte), MODE SENSE, and READ CAPACITY commands. - Changed INQUIRY to ID as a real Seagate model, which makes MacOS much happier than a manufacturer code of "MAME". - Some MESS-specific tweeks to initialization. Fixed all the volume table calculations in the YMF271 core. [Ville Linde] SPI Improvements: [Ville Linde, Pierpaolo Prazzoli] - Added real coin inputs. The previously used coin input was service coin - Hooked up eeprom in rdft2us, rfjetus and rdft22kc Fixed recent LSI53C810 update which caused the Model 3 games to crash.[Ville Linde] Fixed PowerPC recompiler so that Scud Race works again. [Ville Linde] Significant overhaul of the user interface infrastructure: [Aaron Giles] - All user interface rendering is now cached until the end and rendered in one pass. - A large number of extraneous and redundant functions have been removed and replaced with a smaller set of more flexible APIs. - Global access to the UI fonts and colortables is now gone, they are private to the user interface code. - All global user interface function names have been normalized. Most importantly, usrintf_showmessage is now ui_popup. - Pause behavior has been redefined; instead of sitting in a tight loop, the code proceeds normally, but the CPU execution system does not advance time. - Code for the menus has been reworked; some menus are temporarily not available (cheats, memory cards). Removed the internal display of history.dat. Cramming this kind of datainto MAME's limited UI is not really useful, and viewing the history.datinformation is supported by many frontends and websites. [Aaron Giles] Removed the following obsolete and/or redundant command line options from the Windows build: [Aaron Giles] -wrongorientation -wrongfps -gamelist -list -listgames -listdetails -listwrongmerge -listcpu -listcpuclass -listgamespersourcefile -listnosound -listnvram -listpalettesize -listromdistribution -listromnumber -listsound -listdupcrc -listsamdir -listmd5 -listsha1 -verifysets -vset -vsam -sortname -sortdriver -[no]clones -crconly -maxlogsize -resamplefilter -debug_resolution -history_file -mameinfo_file Removed the "Press any key" prompts when displaying ROM warnings. Instead,a warning about bad/missing ROMs is now displayed on the warnings screen.Details of the bad/missing ROMs are still printed to the console.[Aaron Giles] New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status---------------------------------------------------Taisen Tanto-R Sashissu!!

Robert Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Here's one: Keith from Emufanatics found and posted this. Just for who's interested in, MAME32FX will no more be released for a while (at least until Aaron will complete his work on rendering system and get the cheat menu working again).I have to say that this update "destroyed" 99% of the features of my derivative build. I'm a bit demotivated 'cos I don't have too much time to work on it. This could be the end of my hobby, probably for the happiness of many people around here.BTW, This is my decision for now... if you have complaints, you know what to do. Sources: Emufanatics and Mameworld. In that same Mameworld thread, Aaron says the Cheat system will be fixed in the next release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 Looks like it will be awhile before Mame32 gets released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
