MAMETesters Bugs Fixed
----------------------


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]

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]

three things....

one, the plus side to buy cigarettes you have to be 18 in the UK from today. Hopefully this will 'help' retailers from selling them to the 11 year olds!

two, dark chocolate can help fatigue sufferers - i knew i kept that at bay by eating my dark choc!

three, i updated my mamemirror.tk page yesterday with all of the new 119 u2 releases visit mameworld.net for more information and my page for the downloads...
