Robert Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 SourceNow available for download is the latest update to MAME 0.117. This version is mostly internal changes and important bugfixes to the input system and the frontend menus. In addition, we have a preliminary Sega laserdisc game driver thanks to Andrew Gardner, further extensions to the built-in multi-segment LED support from James Wallace, and a new tool that converts the MAME source tree into HTML for browsing. You can see it in action by clicking on the new “Browse Source Code” link to the left. (Note that the total source code weighs in at over 100MB, so please be patient while it uploads!) One side effect of the changes is that you will need updated ctrlr files if you currently rely on the ctrlr support. They will be included with the next binary release, but until then, you can grab them here.

[R. Belmont] Improved DIP switches in powerins driver. [bisonSAS] Added some basic cdrom switching to the system 573 driver. Hooked it up for best of cool dancers to work and the Club versions. Added DIP locations. Moved fake switches to the configuration menu. [smf] Added preliminary video hw emulation and sound support to the 2 Minute Drill driver. [Tomasz Slanina] Added an optional vsync callback to the TIA emulation to allow a driver to dynamically change the screen configuration. [Wilbert Pol] Cleaned up redundant function names. [Atari Ace] Changed CreateWindowEx() call to be win_create_window_ex_utf8(), removing the need for a string conversion. [Nathan Woods] Fixed running the konamigx BIOS on its own do what it should: display a scrolling marquee telling the operator to attach a ROM board. [Alex Jackson] Added new debugger commands for hardreset and softreset. [Nathan Woods] Added built-in support for 14-segment and 16-segment LEDs with comma/period additions. Split vacfdisp into component specific drivers. The system now supports the Rockwell 10937 (aka MSC1937) and 10957, as well as the BD1. All relevant drivers have been updated with the new code, and new layouts have been prepared. [James Wallace] Fixed a few more 64-bit build errors. [Aaron Giles] Separated build tools from general tools. Build tools are now located in the build/ subdirectory. [Aaron Giles] Added new general library module astring.c, which supports allocated strings of arbitrary length and a number of basic functions on them. [Aaron Giles] Replaced assemble_x_strings() functions with the astring equivalents. Updated code in several places to use astrings where appropriate. [Aaron Giles] Added new tool src2html which is used to convert the MAME source tree to HTML format with linked include files and color coded keywords and comments. [Aaron Giles] Converted the memory pool code to a more generic resource pool. Changed internal MAME tracking of timers and save state registrations over to using the new system. [Aaron Giles] Removed underscores from some keycode token names. Thus, KEYCODE_0_PAD now becomes KEYCODE_0PAD. This is to prevent confusion when parsing multiple keyboard items. Due to this change, also removed imperfect backward compatibility with older configs; some mappings will still work, but some won't. Note that this change will also break some existing ctrlr files; new ones will be provided. [Aaron Giles] Did some cleanup of the tilemap interfaces. Changed tilemap type constants to be an enum prefixed by TILEMAP_TYPE_* instead of simply TILEMAP_*. Removed unused members from the tile_info structure.
