MESS 0.79 Released!

[ForceX]

MESS is a multi console emulator for various systems. Only the DOS & Windows binaries are updated so far.

 

New System Drivers Supported:

- [MSX2] Sony HB-F700P (Sean Young)

- [MSX2] NMS 8245 and NMS 8255 (Sean Young)

- [MSX] National FS-4000 (Sean Young)

- [MSX] Sony HB-75P (Sean Young)

 

System Driver Changes:

- [APPLE2] Fixed a regression in caching disk data that would cause data to be lost when switching disks, or for switching disks to not be acknowledged. [Nate Woods]

- [MSX] Rewrote memory emulation.

* Adds support for subslots

* Proper memory layout for the MSX2 drivers, with the diskrom in a subslot of slot 3.

* Adds support for Konami's Sound Cartridge (128kb)

* Adds support for Korean 90-in-1

* Adds support for Kanji ROM

If no cartridges are supplied, it sets the Sound Cartridge in slot 1 and the FM-PAC in slot 2. The Snatcher, SD-Snatcher and the Konami Game Collections now work. Note that Sound Cartridge also behaves as a normal SCC.

With one cartridge supplied the FM-PAC is still set in slot 2 so R-Type and other ROM cartridges can still use it. [sean Young]

- [sUPERBRD] Updated driver with a better BIOS set and keyboard layout and added sound. [Claudio Nieder]

 

User Interface Changes:

- [Windows GUI] Minor bug fixes regarding software listing and CRC calculations with respect to clone and compatible drivers. [Nate Woods]

 

Source Changes:

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

- The core is based on MAME 0.79. This incorporates all features of the update to this core. [MAME team]

- As a consequence of the MAME 0.79 core, which has massive changes to the memory system, there is a greater likelyhood of regressions in this MESS release (as with MAME.)

- Introduced automated messtest testing facility, in order to prevent regressions in the future. [Nate Woods]

- Internal error reporting enhancements for image loading; still some work to do. [Nate Woods]
