MESSinfo.dat Changelog:
- bridgec3: Updated description to 'Fidelity Electronics Bridge Challenger 3 (model 7014)'. Added pcb locations, notes, and better labels [Lord Nightmare].
- acrnsys1: Added cassette [Robbbert].
- alphatro: Added floppy software list [Spirantho].
- bml3: Added software list for floppy disks [Anna Wu]. Split into three variants (bml3, bml3a and bml3b) according to floppy disk support. Only bml3a (5.25" disk) is considered WORKING. Add stub variants bml3mk2 (for MB-6891) and bml3mk5 (for MB-6892). For now these behave the same as bml3 (MB-6890). Refactor disk controllers and kanji ROM as slot devices. This allows switching between MP-1802 and MP-1805 disk controllers. MP-1805 disk controller now works. Kanji ROM now works. Keyboard scanning in 'counter disabled' mode now works [jedwidz].
- famicom: Added support for loading/saving BASIC programs from/to cassette. Wav files supported only [Fabio Priuli].
- gameboy: Converted the various LCD types (DMG, MGB, CGB...) to be devices [Fabio Priuli].
- ibm5140: Added floppies and fixed form factor [Curt Coder].
- ibm5150: Added a few more disks [Kaylee].
- ibm5160: Emulated the IBM Model F PC/XT 83-key keyboard [Curt Coder, John Elliott].
- ibm5170: Added IBM diagnostics floppies at sogft list [Curt Coder]. Emulated the IBM Model F PC/AT 84-key keyboard. [Curt Coder, John Elliott].
- mekd2: Added cassette interface, system listed as WORKING [Robbbert].
- pc1512: Description updated [Curt Coder].
- pc1640: Promoted to working with imperfect graphics, the extended Paradise EGA-350 video modes are not supported yet [Curt Coder].
- pdp1: Fixed loading of paper tape, Spacewar works again [Robbbert].
- sms: Converted SMS inputs to use slot devices. You now select controllers in the Slot Devices menu of the internal UI, not in the Driver Configurations anymore [Enik].
- snes: SNES SA-1 improvements: * S-CPU can properly write to SA-1 registers * SA-1 CPU boots properly from its own vectors * Interrupt controller implemented * Message-passing registers and status flags hooked up * Fixed initial SA-1 status and added preliminary SA-1 to S-CPU IRQ.[R. Belmont]. SNES SA-1 work: * Initial support for plain SA-1 DMA * Fixed incorrect BWRAM banking * Fixed SA-1 vectors to not blot out all banks * Added S-CPU vector override * Fire interrupt for CC type 1; this allows levelling up in SMRPG (gfx not correct yet) [Fabio Priuli, R. Belmont].
- softbox: Added reset when IEEE-488 IFC is asserted. Fixed reset [Mike Naberezny].
- victor9k: Added preliminary software list [Jonathan Gevaryahu].
- a7800.c: XM/XBoard POKEY support. 'Bentley Bear - Crystal Quest' & 'Donkey Kong XM' now work, while maintaining support for original library titles, Commando and Ballblazer [Robert Tuccitto].
- apollo.c: Fixed disk and tape DMA, improved logging. Fix out-of-bounds framebuffer access crash on OS X [Hans Ostermeyer].
- c64.c: Updated SwiftLink/Turbo232 settings [Mike Naberezny].
- fidelz80.c: Rename (vbc) to (vbrc) and noted that Fidelity Bridge Challenger models VBRC and 7002 are two names for the same thing [Lord Nightmare, Cowering, Kevtris].
- mac.c: Updates: Corrected memory map errors with the SE and Classic * Preliminary support for the SE's 68000 processor-direct slot * Preliminary support for the Radius Full Page Display card which goes in the SE PDS slot [R. Belmont].
- nes.c: Added emulation of the FC Family Trainer controller, to be enabled in Expansion Port through the Driver Configuration submenu and mapped by default like the Power Pad. Improvements and fixes to inputs: * Simplified input reading * Moved most Famicom controllers to the expansion port (still configurable in the Driver Config menu) because it is more accurate and because it allows to use both the FC keyboard and the controllers in BASIC games * Fixed NES paddle emulation which broke some years ago * Added FC paddle emulation, see Arkanoid and Chase HQ * Added Hori Twin Adapter with correct P3 & P4 Famicom protocol, see e.g. four players games by Technos Japan just a cleanup and the whatsnew entry for previous changes. Emulated microphone input for old famicom controller, as detected by games (i.e. it only detects voice/no voice, while the actual transmission of your voice to the speakers is not emulated). To use it in games expecting you to blow or shout in the mic, select the
- pc.c: PC driver cleanup: * Much improved CS4031 emulation, added DMA, interrupt controller, timer, RTC directly to the device as sub devices and added the generic functions needed for AT compatibility * Moved the ct486 driver to its own file, to avoid all the legacy stuff in at.c * Added support for the IOCHCK signal to the ISA bus, this is used instead of directly issuing an NMI to the main CPU * Moved ISA device slot definitions to its own file to avoid copy & pasting the same list to different drivers * Updated MC146818 RTC for devcb2 [Dirk Best].
- pce.c: Bugfix #05215: [Crash/Freeze] (pce.c) (pce) cdrom games: Peroidic crashes or black screen [Fabio Priuli].
- pet.c: Fixed ROM signatures for Mator Shark hard drive. Added Z-RAM floppy [Mike Naberezny]. Added 8050 version of VisiCalc at soft list (pet_flop.xml) [Curt Coder].
- sms.c: Converted TH line callbacks to use write_line [Enik Land].
- snes.c: Simplified input handling, moved the console specific inputs to MESS driver and added preliminary Multitap support. Multitap has to be enabled in the Driver Configuration menu. The code is considered preliminary because some games recognize 4 pads (e.g. Kunio-kun no Dodge Ball), other ones recognize 3 pads only (e.g. Super Bomberman 3, 4 & 5) and some recognize 2 pads only (e.g. FIFA 96 and 97). Simplified input handling and made controller ports 16bits wide, since this is the way they are accessed by our code [Fabio Priuli].
- tx0.c: Fixed paper tape reader [Robbbert]
- vtech1.c: Fixed I/O ports for vz300, laser310 allowing disk to work. Fixed I/O error when reading disks [Robbbert].
- Al Kossow and Curt Coder added skeleton driver of Ithaca InterSystems DPS-1 system.
- Angelo Salese added NEC PC-9801BX2/U2 system (not working).
