Source Changes

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

Massive cleanup/fixing of 16-bit Sega drivers: [AWJ]

* many corrections to descriptive set names, adding revision letters, cabinet types, etc.

* fixed many DIP switches and added PORT_DIPLOCATION support

* adjusted min/max values for analog controls to improve response

* fixed button ordering between System 16A/B

* cleaned up a number of ROM names and fixed some incorrect guesses

* some cleanup of turbo.c as well

* fixed visible area in Hang-On hardware

* actually disabling 8751 in games that have a fake replacement

* hooked up 8255 PPI correctly now that it has mode 2 support

* fixed behavior of NMI line in later sega sound boards

* fixed addressing in the SegaPCM sound system

* some hardware/documentation cleanup

 

Some cleanups in the new UI/video code to make MESS happy. [Nathan Woods]

 

Added macros to prevent use of strcasecmp and strncasecmp for better cross-platform compatibility. [Nathan Woods]

 

Connected unimplemented opcode $01 on the 6809 core. [Antoine Mine]

 

Implemented CNT pin and some serial features of the 6526 CIA chip. [Nathan Woods]

 

Mapped service button in slammast. [Canim]

 

Fixed bug in 8039 CPU handling of A11 latch. [Aaron Giles]

 

Rewrote Zaxxon driver from the schematics. This is still a WIP (not finished yet): [Aaron Giles]

* correct clock speeds and video timing

* complete memory maps

* connected universal sound board to Ixion and Razmataz

* simplified video code and merged common cases together

* palette derived from resistor weights

* background positioning still a little off

 

Added service_coin_lockout_w() to lockout service coins. [Aaron Giles]

 

Added MDRV_SCREEN_RAW_PARAMS() which lets you specify a pixel clock, horizontal, and vertical video timing values in place of the usual screen size, visible area, refresh rate, and VBLANK timing values. [Aaron Giles]

 

Fixed bug that prevented save/restore from working in the UI. [Aaron Giles]

 

Changed mode selection logic so that refresh is weighted more strongly when picking a mode. This allows you to specify -resolution 0x0@60 to force MAME to pick a 60Hz screen refresh while allowing it to choose the best resolution. [Aaron Giles]
