Source Changes

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

-Memory handler normalization, part 1. READ/WRITE_DEVICE*_HANDLERs are

now passed an address_space &, and the 8-bit variants get a mem_mask

as well. This means they are now directly compatible with the member

function delegates. Added a generic address space to the driver_device

that can be used when no specific address space is available. Also

added DECLARE_READ/WRITE_DEVICE*_HANDLER macros to declare device

callbacks with default mem_mask parameters. [Aaron Giles]

 

-Memory handler normalization, part 2. Change legacy read/write

handlers to take an address_space & instead of an address_space *.

Also update pretty much all other functions to take a reference where

appropriate. [Aaron Giles]

 

-Memory handler cleanup 3. Add mem_mask parameter to 8-bit handlers to

match the others. To ease pain, added DECLARE_READ/WRITE_HANDLER

macros that set up a default parameter. Also updated devcb so that the

handlers can be called with or without the mem_mask. [Aaron Giles]

 

-Seibu COP: Added 0x1c param to 0x0205 command, fixes at least sprite

positioning during intros of Raiden 2 and Zero Team (but breaks

gameplay in Zero Team, needs investigation) [Angelo Salese, Smitdogg]

 

-Seibu COP: Made 0x42c2 command more accurate, makes Legionnaire

enemies to behave properly and match finally starts in Seibu Cup

Soccer [Angelo Salese, Smitdogg]

 

-gunpey.c - Corrected OKI M6925 frequency [Phil Bennett]

 

-fix for "file note writeable" when creating, plus consolidated some

duplicate/redundant code. [smf]

 

-Seibu COP: Added 0xe38e command, used by Seibu Cup Soccer to follow

the ball [Angelo Salese]

 

-Since nobody checks for NULLs anyway, make

device_memory_interface::space() assert against NULL and return a

reference, and pushed references throughout all address space usage in

the system. Added a has_space() method to check for those rare case

when it is ambiguous. [Aaron Giles]

 

-Added -verifysoftware command. [Wilbert Pol]

 

-Changed CPS-1 video timings to SCREEN_RAW_PARAMS [Angelo Salese]

 

-Added generic set of pinball mechanical sounds [Robbbert]

 

-lib7z: fix portability problems that resulted in memory trashing in

some configurations. [R. Belmont]

 

-Better simulation of Metal Slug X's protection device. [iQ_132]

Made Epson R4543 RTC a proper RTC device, eliminates duplicated code

in Namco Systems 12 and 23 [R. Belmont]

 

-rotation - Added motor simulation; added nvram; added mechanical

sounds; added notes [Robbbert]

 

-tms99x8: Converted to using RGB32 bitmap so chips can coexist with

other video screens [R. Belmont]

 

-fixed MT03464: fixed potential out of array access in

src/emu/video/voodoo.c logerror() [Oliver Stöneberg]

 

-m6509: Fixed EA zero page indirect + Y (post indexed). [Curt Coder]

 

-Implemented DS75160A/DS75161A IEEE-488 GPIB Transceivers. [Curt Coder]

 

-spectra - added remaining sounds, game marked as WORKING [Robbbert]

 

-Ported Palette brightness effects to Raiden 2 HW, used by Zero Team

and X Se Dae [Angelo Salese]

 

-mcr68.c: Add dipswitch locations to all sets in the driver.

[brian Troha]

 

-aftor - fixed display, marked as WORKING [Robbbert]

 

-Added irq ack to Shanghai 3 HW [Angelo Salese]

 

-Fixed M68K and hooked up SCREEN_RAW_PARAMS for Blocken. Game was

definitely running at erratic speeds before [Angelo Salese, Tafoid]

 

-mos6526: Implemented a nearly cycle-exact "old" CIA, which passes most

of the Lorenz/VICE CIA tests. Refactored the c64/c128/vic10/cbm2

drivers and the 1571/1581 floppy drives to use the new implementation.

[Curt Coder]

 

-6532riot.c: Internal timer is always running. Fixes several a2600

regressions. (Wilbert Pol)

 

-Moved scsi protocol code from scsibus_device to scsihle_device, leaving

scsibus_device to calculate the current bus contents and distribute it

to each of the scsidev_device. [smf]

 

-suna8.c: fixed sound samples width, improves speech

in e.g. rranger [Luca Elia]

 

-Promoted starfigh to playable state [Luca Elia]

* Address line scrambling of data ROMs

* ROM bank latching and mirroring

* Sound latch and NMI disable

* Patched some further protection

* Added graphics banking

 

-Emulated Lord of Gun's protection rather than patching it out [iq_132]
