Cet émulateur émulant de multiples machines domestiques a été mis à jour. Les améliorations sont les suivantes:
New System Drivers Supported:
(none)

Systems Promoted from GAME_NOT_WORKING:
(none)

Skeleton drivers:
- Olympia People PC [Robert aka rfka01]

System Driver Changes:
- c64: Implemented memory mapping via a 82S100 device that uses the fusemap of the real C64 PLA. This enables full cartridge support, and more accurate emulation of the hardware in the future. Retired the old driver, and separated Ultimax (vic10) and C64DTV to their own drivers. [Curt Coder]
- lynx: Added basic uart loopback emulation (loopz, malibu, bzone2k, awesomeg get past intro) [Huygens]
*Moved sign conversion code inside multiply function (fixes stunrun)
*cartslot changed to mandatory (real lynx will not power on without a game inserted)
*moved sign detection back outside multiply function.
*added sign flag updating on write to LSB of MATH_CD register.
- n64: DMA / RSP / RDP Optimization and Documentation [MooglyGuy]
*Start of mass variable renaming / documentation in the RDP core
*RSP Opt: Shunt around the core memory system for RSP instruction / data fetches
*DMA Opt: Shunt around the core memory system for SP and PI DMA transfers
*RDP Opt: Replace 2D switch statement with function table for texel fetching
*RDP Opt: Replace 3x array lookup for 16-to-32 pixel expansion with 64K LUT
*RDP Opt: Remove setters / getters in favor of direct member access

Software Lists:
- ibm5140.xml: added floppy disk softlist. [Kaylee]
- apple1.xml: added tape software list [Anonymous01, Fabio Priuli]
- famicom.xml: added a floppy disk softlist and updated the driver to use it. [Fabio Priuli]

Source Changes:
- Added Covox DAC and Covox Stereo-On-1 [Miodrag Milanovic]
- Added emulation of HD64610 RTC and hooked up to pda600 driver. [Sandro Ronco]

- Added noise support to UPD1771 [plgDavid]
- Added ISA IBM PC Music Feature Card [Phil Bennett]
- ioport.c: Made the key/paste buffer auto-expand when it becomes full. This makes it possible to paste larger BASIC programs for instance. [Wilbert Pol]

Ultimate MAME v0.144u4

Vendredi 30/12/11 à 11:54 par Firebrand

Cet, émulateur réunissant MAME et MESS a été mis à jour. Il est basé sur une version de MAME post v0.144u4 (c'est à dire une version WIP au delà de v0.144u4 et pas encore 0.144u5) ainsi que la révision 13871 de MESS. L'archive est très volumineuse car elle comprend les version 32 et 64-bit de l'émulateur ainsi que les sources:
This one is actually just based off MESS SVN revision 13871, so I’m not 100% sure which MAME version it’s synced to, but it’s post 0.144u4 for sure.
The process is simpler than it’s ever been right now, requiring minimal changes, in essence just a tool to combine the lists, and a new build target. A source diff of the needed changes is here.
I’m simply offering a single package this time, this includes:
- complete.exe / complete64.exe – 32-bit and 64-bit builds of the combined binary as well as the rather redundant
- mame.exe / mame64.exe – 32-bit and 64-bit builds of just the MAME target
- mess.exe / mess64.exe – 32-bit and 64-bit builds of just the MESS target.
32-bit and 64-bit compiles of the tools are included in tools32/tools64 folders too the full source is in there as well.
