La nouvelle version stable de MAME vient d'être publiée. A noter qu'une version 64-bit pour cet émulateur est désormais disponible. Le set Neo-Geo a été également largement remanié. Les améliorations sont les suivantes: Come and grab the latest official “stable†build of MAME from the Latest Release page, or from the ZTNet Mirror. As of this release, I am officially producing a 64-bit native Windows binary along with the usual 32-bit builds to help encourage more testing of the 64-bit native code. For the most part, games run at least as well as the 32-bit versions, and some run significantly better thanks to the architectural improvements of native 64-bit mode. Another notable change with this release is the movement of some core shared files in the source tree. A number of files in the mame/machine and mame/video directories were really more core shared components, and so they have been given a new home in the emu/machine and emu/video directories. As always, report bugs with this version over at MAMETesters. Have fun!
Source Changes - Added "native" architecture option to the makefile. Use this to have gcc automatically pick the most appropriate architecture based on the system that it is compiling on. [Christophe Jaillet] - Hooked up the KL5C80 communications CPU to the HNG64 BIOS and emulated some of its features. [Andrew Gardner, Justin Kerk] - Fixed a few pointer truncation bugs in the Windows 64-bit code. - Enabled warnings for 64-bit pointer truncations. Merged the x86 and x64 manifests. [Atari Ace] - Changed 6821 PIA logging so that it only logs core messages once. [Tim Lindner] - Updates to various NeoGeo ROMsets. Some ROM names updated to match verified names from chip labels. A lot of "older" sets have been redumped to investigate the "64k m1/s1 issue" (also the m1 "overdumps"). Result was, ALL m1 ARE at least 128kx8; ALL s1 ARE 128kx8. The old m1 "overdumps" were incomplete dumps. In addition, it has been discovered that all "p-roms" do have a minimum size of 4mbit. A number of sets have been restored to their "original" state, and a number of others have been marked as bad dumps where appropriate. Specific changes include: [Johnboy] .bjourney: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .bstars: fully redumped, added correct m1 .bstars2: fully redumped, added correct m1 .goalx3: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .janshin: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .joyjoy: added correct m1 .legendos: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .maglord: fully redumped, added correct m1 .mutnat: partially redumped, added correct m1 .nam1975: fully redumped, added correct m1/s1 .ncombata: fully redumped, renamed set to ncombath .neomrdo: readded 128k s1 from Mame v0.34b5 .pbobblen: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .puzzledp: readded 128k s1 from Mame v0.34b5 .ridhero: fully redumped, added correct s1 .socbrawl: readded 128k s1 from Mame v0.34b5 .ssideki2: fully redumped .strhoop: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .svc: removed MVS tag, only one version exists (AES/MVS/PCB) .svcboot: removed MVS tag .tws96: readded 128k m1 from Mame v0.34b5 .viewpoin: readded 128k m1/s1 from Mame v0.34b5 .wh2j: partially redumped, renamed to wh2jh, is verified AES version .wh2j: fully redumped, is verified MVS version .wh1h: fully redumped, is verified AES version .wh1ha: renamed from wh1h to wh1ha - Made several more traditional optimizations to the voodoo emulations, gaining a few percent improvement. [Aaron Giles] - Further tweaked the work code to appropriately check for work items versus checking for the number of outstanding items. [Aaron Giles] - Simplified some of the model2 rendering code. [Aaron Giles] - Moved a number of files from mame/machine and mame/video to emu/machine and emu/video. In general, files that emulate a common industry standard chip (as opposed to custom, manufacturer-specific chips) were moved. Further moves may happen in the future to isolate common system-level components (such as amiga, snes, etc.). [Aaron Giles, Curt Coder]
