play "Super Mario Land" with the custom palettes of the Game Boy
Color. [Fabio Priuli]
-NS8250 Fixes [smf]
* Loopback: tx goes high and data is clocked at the
correct rate instead of appearing instantly Modem status register:
don't lose track of external signals when starting, resetting,
switching loopback off, writing to register Handshaking: active low
for consistency (RS232 port now defaults handshaking lines high and
serial mouse dtr/rts handling has been adjusted).
-Memory system and Namco improvements: [Alex Jackson]
* Explicit regions in address maps (AM_REGION) are now looked up
relative to the device rather than as siblings when in an internal
address map (similar to devices and shared pointers) Besides being
more orthogonal than before, this allows internal ROMs of MCUs and
similar devices to be hooked up in a nicer and more foolproof way.
Updated the m37710 and m5074x (m6502 derivative) to take advantage of
this.
* Divided the M37702/M37710 into specific models, with each model having
its own internal address map containing the correct amounts of
internal RAM and ROM.
* M37702 MCUs found on various Namco PCBs are now all unique devices and
have their respective internal ROMs loaded as device ROMs.
-namcops2: Documentation fixes [Guru]

didn't provide one [Alex Jackson]

guesswork [Alex Jackson]

-mb88xx.c: Added support for Fujitsu M88201-202 MCU [Felipe Sanches]
-model3: New 3D renderer + various fixes (still heavily WIP) [Ville Linde]
-Beatmania IIDX Twinkle hardware: The IDE DMA is now hooked up, but the
sound board isn't running well enough yet for it to make a difference.
Hooked up the FDC37665GT and HLE the XVD701 and the 68k sound board
responses to get most of the games booting. There is no sound and the
games all fail with a hdd error when you start a stage. Beatmania IIDX
with DDR 2nd Club Version wants the GQ863 hard disk. [smf]
-Beatmania IIDX Twinkle hardware: beatmania IIDX Substream with DDR 2nd
Club Version 2 wants the harddisk from beatmania IIDX Substream. Added
missing 3rd & 6th style CD images & replaced 5th style images. [smf]

missing video features used by gostop [David Haywood]
- Refactored legionna.c COP code to use new Raiden II implementation
fixing several bugs along the way [David Haywood]

specific bullet patterns and expected hitbox sizes [David Haywood]
- Added note about tharrier Dipswitches being likely read via the
protection device (not yet hooked up) [David Haywood]
- Fix girls 4,5,6 in the 'popbingo' bonus rounds [David Haywood]
- Fix what appears to be bad sound ROM banking in sandscrp
[Dink, David Haywood]
to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.

- Unior [Robbbert]
- Avigo [Sandro Ronco]
- Savia84 [Robbbert]
System Driver Changes:
----------------------
- atarist: Palette registers then to show the unused bits as 1,
causing line-f exceptions when you run on them [O. Galibert]
- atarist: Add some bus errors in appropriate places
(there are still a bunch of them missing though) [O. Galibert]
- Fix the Intellivision II memory map so the second chunk of
executive rom actually appears in the cpu address space. oops.
Should fix a bunch of games which are supposed to work on intv2
not working. [Lord Nightmare]
- atarist: Be even more brutal with the resync [O. Galibert]
- atarist: Hook up the joystick correctly [O. Galibert]
- atarist: If the 6850 and the 6301 are not in perfect sync,

now playable; WALLE added details of alternate dump. [Robbbert]

DMA byte counting, Chase HQ works [O. Galibert]

----------------
- wd1772: Add read track support and some misc fixes [O. Galibert]
- Fix for cursor handling in dl1416 [Lord Nightmare]
- wd1772: Add read ids support [O. Galibert]
- Store the character codes and cursor states in ram and use
the lookup rom to decode on display (as the real chip does
according to the datasheet) rather than storing the segment
contents in ram. This makes the DL1416 device act more like
the real chip, where on power-up you see random but
recognizable characters, rather than random gibberish.
Note there's a lot of code duplication to check cursor
state and invalid/blank crap which can probably either go
behind a define or be its own function, or into the display
wrapper function itself. [Lord Nightmare]

-nohc option from command line (windows only) [Robbbert,hap]

match the code used by the file selector
(this will allow more improvements soon). [Fabio Priuli]
- softlist.c: softlists entries are now ordered by shortname in the
File Manager, so that it's easier to find the set you want to load
(first of the promised improvements ;) ). [Fabio Priuli]

shortnames, like in the file selector. [Fabio Priuli]

- uiimage.c: File Manager now displays the brief name of the image device to

MESS is a source-available project which documents the hardware
for a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game
consoles, and calculators through software emulation, as MAME does
for arcade games. As a nice side effect to this documentation, MESS
allows software and games for these hardware platforms to be run
on modern PCs.
