MAMETesters Bugs Fixed

Source Changes
\n————–
\nCleaned up the freekick.c driver [Sonikos]:
\n– added 2nd button in gigas\/gias2m\/oigas
\n– matched the Z80 chip mhz to the \u00ab\u00a0confirmed\u00a0\u00bb mhz of gigas<\/p>\n
Extended the gfxlayout structure to support \u00ab\u00a0extended\u00a0\u00bb arrays of
\nx and y offsets. These are used for layouts that are larger than
\n32×32. This enables the standard structure to be smaller for the
\nvast majority of games that don’t require huge graphics decodes.
\nThe end result is that the MAME .exe is ~3MB smaller.
\n[Atari Ace, Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
Added some Amiga enhancements needed for MESS Amiga and CDTV
\ndrivers. [Dirk Best]<\/p>\n
Removed non-existant 3rd & 4th player controls from deadconx.
\n[Don Maeby]<\/p>\n
Improvements to the MACS driver: [Tomasz Slanina]
\n– fixed a couple of gfx bugs in st0016 video emulation
\n– added hacks to allow MACS games to boot
\n– removed REGION_DISPOSE flag from srmp5 and speaglsht (no more
\ncrashes)<\/p>\n
Fixed\/improved DIP switches in the powerbal.c, konamigx.c, and
\ngsword.c drivers. [Twisty]<\/p>\n
More improvements to the BFM driver and the 6840 timer emulation.
\n[El Condor]<\/p>\n
Improvements to the x86 drc engine and the Windows blitters:
\n– Blitter CPUID features now accessed by drc_x86_get_features() call
\n– Added win_blit_init(), to initialize the blitter
\n– Changes to DRC to support usage for things other than CPU cores
\n– Fixed drc_dasm() so it works once again
\n– Added macros for a number of MMX\/SSE instructions
\n– Added a number of MMX\/SSE instructions to the i386 disassembler<\/p>\n
Actually applied the Marine Date fixes which were mentioned in a
\nprevious u release. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
Added experimental support for building using Visual C++ 2003\/2005.
\nTo do this, you still need the mingw environment (ironically) because
\nwe rely on the mingw make system to call out to the MSVC compilers.
\nSet the variable MSVC_BUILD=1 on the command line or by modifying
\nwindows.mak, and it will build using the Microsoft compilers. This
\nworks through the use of a stub program vconv.exe which translates
\ngcc options into MSVC options. As a bootstrapping measure, vconv.exe
\nis compiled at the start of a clean build by mingw. Most of the
\nstandard build options just work (SYMBOLS, MAP, DEBUG, etc). If you
\nhave a beefy computer, you can also set MAXOPT=1 and use link-time
\ncode generation for maximum optimization effect. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
Added preliminary support for 64-bit targets. A new makefile define
\nPTR64 should be set if you are compiling for a 64-bit target. This
\npropogates a PTR64 define into the C files as well. Made the makefile
\nsmart enough to auto-disable the drc cores for 64-bit, and removed
\nmost of the roadblocks to a 64-bit build, apart from the assembly
\nblitters, which are currently undergoing a rewrite. [Aaron Giles]<\/h5>\n
