• Most TZX files will be useable, but there are several TZX blocks which are ignored still. See the docs for more info.

Since there is quite a list of modifications to be done and I don't know when I'll get round to doing them, and this version appears to be stable with (apparently) no MuForce/MGA hits, it is worth releasing.
• Aside from the usual bug reprts and things, I would be particularly interested in user's opinions of how you would like the tape deck controls to look and operate. The present system is simplistic to say the least.
• Also, URL's of TZX's containing some of the less-seen blocks, such as Direct Recording, Embedded Snapshot, Call/Return, etc. would be helpful if these blocks are to be implemented and/or tested.

• Fake sound also works now.
• Many games that didn't work before should work now.
• Also four controllers are supported the first one controls the menus, the buttons changed a bit because the joysticks are supported as true joysticks (with analog support) instead of mapping to the keyboard, you still don't need a keyboard to play

Einstein TC-01 (preliminary) [Kev Thacker]

System Driver Changes:
----------------------

- [ATARI7800] Fixed a bug in TIA emulation: now the driver doesn't lock 
  anymore with some ports. [Frank]

- [NC200] Keyboard reading and display memory address differences (compared 
  to NC100) implemented. [Kev Thacker and Russell Marks]

- [NC100/NC200] Changed CPU frequency to be more accurate 
  [Kev Thacker and Russell Marks]

- [PRAVETZ] Emulation of Apple2 disc controller interface (low 8D DOS and high 
  8D DOS is supported. (DOS1->1.30 for low DOS and DOS 2.10 or better for high 
  DOS) Disk images are ".DSK" and same as used by Apple2 driver. [Kev Thacker]

- [KC COMPACT] colours generated from colour rom [Kev Thacker]

- [TI85] Snapshot loading (VTI 2.0 save state files). Sound added (speaker
  connected to link port). Video engine totaly rewriten so grayscale works 
  now.  NVRAM support added. Link port emulation added (variables, memory 
  backups and screen dumps receiving, variables and memory backups sending). 
  Reset fixed. PCR emulation added.

  derivatives.  Also, a few effects now work that never have done before,
  including the dynamite effect in Canyon Climber and some SockMaster demos.
  Totally reworked ROM support; cartridge IO is now modular,
  the CART signal is handled better, and ROMs that don't take up the full
  address space are properly mirrored.  These changes make many more cartridges
  work properly, including Mind-Roll which is banked.  Also, properly NOP'd
  invalid memory areas, which prevented Arkanoid from running.  [Nate Woods]

- [COCO] Implemented support for the Orch90 cartridge. [Tim Lindner]

- [MSX2] The V9938 emulation is improved, added interlaced mode, fixed blitter 
  timings, sprites, and GRAPHIC 5 (SCREEN 6). The MSX2 now has a 128kB memory 
  mapper, so now many more games run. Numeric keypad emulation added. Fix to

  bankswitching fixes [PeT]
  
- [VIC20] power up strategy changed (RAM is not filled with 0xff 0x00 pattern 
  like in VICE anymore, real SRAM is indeed filled with random pattern). Power 
  up "support" for jelly monsters. Keyboard polling support for 
  second/alternate matrix io selection. Some "dipswitch" fixes. [PeT]

- [C16] TED timer 1 reloading on underrun changed. [PeT]
  ECM and Multicolor mode: cursor and character inversion disabled.
  TED sound channels simplified to generate only rectangular signals: 
  digisound working, less static, clearer sound. Now the driver uses MOS 8580. 
  [PeT]

- The main binary distribution of MESS is now a completely new win32 console
  port. Some of the benefits are: support for full screen hardware stretching
  (if you have a decent video card), and a much better command line / options
  file parsing (ported from xmame).    To create the mess.ini configuration 
  file on startup, use the -createconfig option. -showusage lists all 
  available options. [Aaron Giles, Bernd Wiebelt, Lee Ward, Ben Bruscella]

- [Windows] CLI improvements:
  * config option for steadykey (default: OFF)
  * parse debug.ini in debug builds
  * mamew \anywhere\roms\pacman.zip works
  * improved -log option
  * mame will now parse argv[0].ini instead of mame.ini.
    i.e. if the mame executable is called "m37b17.exe" it will
    parse m37b17.ini instead of mame.ini
  [Paul Priest, Bernd Wiebelt]

- [DOS] Support for C64/Atari/Sinclair joysticks connected via DB9 or
  Turbografix interface. [Aley Keprt]


Source:
-------

- Big changes to the palette system. 8-bit modes are no longer supported, only
  16-bit ones are used. 8-bit support may be removed from the OS dependant
  code; the core will never ask for an 8-bit deep screen. 8-bit bitmaps could
  still be used though.

- Palette compression has been removed. palette_recalc(), palette_transparent_pen
  and palette_used_colors[] are not available anymore. Drivers that relied on
  PALETTE_COLOR_TRANSPARENT for transparency effects must be rewritten to
  implement them differently. As a result of this, all games using the Taito
  TC0480SCP video chip, and all Taito F3 games, are broken in this release.

- tilemap_update() is gone. Everything is handled by tilemap_draw().

- IMPORTANT CHANGE FOR PORTERS: the OS dependant code is now required to
  guarantee, in 16-bit palettized mode, that Machine->pens[i] == i. The "pens"
  argument to osd_allocate_colors() will be NULL, actually it has been renamed
  "rgb_components" since direct RGB modes are the only ones that will pass that
  argument.

- Remove VIDEO_MODIFIES_PALETTE and the "modifiable" parameter from
  osd_allocate_colors().

- New flags VIDEO_HAS_SHADOWS and VIDEO_HAS_HIGHLIGHTS that automatically extend
  the palette creating a darker(brighter copy for shadows handling.
  palette_set_shadow_factor() and palette_set_highlight_factor() allow to
  control the adjustment to apply (shadow can be > 1.0, making it an highlight,
  and highlight can be < 1.0 making it a shadow - the names are just conventional).
  [Nicola Salmoria]

- New function palette_set_brightness(), allowing selective control of palette
  brightness independently of the palette RAM contents. [Nicola Salmoria]

- MachineDriver.color_table_len can now be 0, meaning that the colortable is a
  1:1 mapping from the palette. Note that you CANNOT use this feature if you use
  TRANSPARENCY_COLOR; but of course, if you need TRANSPARENCY_COLOR you'll not
  have a 1:1 colortable.

- New function tilemap_draw_roz(). [Phil Stroffolino]

- New function auto_malloc(); this is the same as malloc(), but the memory is
  automatically freed when the driver exits. [Aaron Giles]

- osd_bitmap.line is now a void ** to prevent confusion.

23:56EST - Real Spectrum Beta #11 for Win 9X

Real Spectrum Beta #11 for Win 9X, a Sinclair ZX Spectrum emulator has been released. This release includes the following features, enhancements, and bugfixes.

• FastLoading: a cool tape loading acceleration technique which works will all loaders, including those not covered by FlashLoading. It dramatically reduces the loading time of any tape by at least 5-8 times, with the emulator still running at the usual 50 fps. But with the "warp" setting (ALT-F7), the boost reaches an amazing 30x-50x and above, depending on the speed of your PC! Check out the FastLoading section of the manual for more information.
• Action recorder: RealSpectrum can now record and playback all the keyboard and joystick events! Thanks to AIR files (Advanced Input Recording) you can do several nice things, such as record the moves to finish your favourite games and create your own collection of game solutions to put online, or take part in the available online game tournaments where you can challenge other players to reach the highest scores in some classic games. Check this section of the manual for more information and links!
• Brand new debugger: the oldest source code of RealSpectrum, still intact since the very first release, has been blasted away and replaced with the new powerful and colourful debugger where nearly everything is now possible (to be completed) ;-) Check out the new section in the manual, or press F1 for a list of the keys.
• New Spectrum graphic modes: basic support for some ULA video tweaks available for Pentagon, namely hardware multicolor and GigaScreen. The effects can be activated from the extra video preferences menu (ALT-F11). More modes available soon.
• RealDisk improvements: the RealDisk system supports also 5.25" disk drives, and Track Caching is now handled automatically. Support for EDSK reading for +3 disks (but not only), please check the new section called "Reading disks in +3 modes" which describes the DSK customization panel. More compatibility with +3 disks, especially copy-protected ones.
• Improved +3 disk emulation: several enhancements and bugfixes to the FDC 765 disk controller, especially concerning non-standard disks and copy-protected games (CP/M, Dragon Ninja, Dynasty Wars, Alkatraz and Speedlock loaders, etc). Added 720K DSK type in ALT-F6. Softlock and PowerLoad FlashLoading: with the addition of these two loaders, many more games can be loaded instantaneousely directly from TZX files.
• Tape rewind and eject: check out ALT-F7 for these new functions concerning tape loading.
• Graphic OSD: on-screen icons have been introduced to represent the emulator status and global events, such as tape/disk loading (play, rec, fast/flash), network activity, audio/video/action recording/playback, and so on. From ALT-F11 you can customize the display corner where the icons appear and their number (also from the INI).
• Better sound: much louder and consequently cleaner audio (+12dB in dynamic range)! We finally found a method to convince the external audio library not to scale down the output level of our sound stream, which also reduced the dynamic range (clarity). This only affects the soundcard output (speakers/headphones), while WAV/AVI recording has always been ok. If it's too loud now, adjust the "MasterVolume:" setting into the INI :-)
• SpecDrum emulation: another popular 8-bit digital sound interface, selectable from ALT-F12.
• Multiprint emulation: another Multiface-like interface from Romantic Robot with advanced support for printing. It is selected as an additional Multiface variant in F3+F3.
• Issue 2 emulation: the keyboard type can be changed from the properties menu for the Spectrum 16K and 48K (F3+F3), or set into the INI file.
• Greyscale color mode: a new setting in ALT-F11 can turn RealSpectrum in greyscale mode (black and white), great for watching MB-02 Multitech images.
• Post-rendering graphic effects: another option added to ALT-F11 which allows you to apply additional visual effects to the Spectrum video. In this release the only filter available is Chunky Vision, designed for viewing demos which use the 4x4 monochrome pixel chunks (Refresh and many many others). Requires additional CPU power. See the manual for more information.
• Tape noise: now RealSpectrum fills the silence gaps with some artificial noise like on a real tape; this accomodates some weird loaders. This feature can be disabled from the INI.
• Enlarged ProfROM support: now RealSpec accepts also 128K and 256K versions in addition to the full 512K ROM. The fileselector now remebers the last directory accessed for each file type, and the position of the highlight bar.
• Moved the IDE control panel from ALT-F4 to CTRL-F4. ALT-F4 now shows the Action Recorder menu.
• Automatic model switching: if this new setting (CTRL-F1) is enabled, RealSpectrum will change the computer model automatically when you load a snapshot file (previous versions of the emulator never do this). The default value for this option can be specified into the INI file with the "ModelSwitching:" line.
• Many bugfixes (INI parser, double-sided DSK files, FDC765, .ROM loading, TAP/TZX saving, WD1793, Z80 core, CPU detection).
• Updated the FAQ section of the manual with more common questions and troubleshooting.

Sintendo v.Beta 0.10 Pre-relase 2 for Dreamcast, a Nintendo NES emulator has been released. This release includes the following features, enhancements, and bugfixes.

• A full load ROM fix. ROMs should load every time, correctly, from this point forward. This is not to say that all ROMs play on Sintendo, because there are still compatibility issues with games like Yoshi's Island and Megaman X2/X3 that should be familiar to anyone who's used Snes9x. Also, hi-res games still don't run due to previous lack of memory, although this may be fixed soon.
• Someone commented that the borders in TV Mode were too large, so they have been reduced. An extra option was added in the Video Mode menu to allow TV Mode with either small (default) or large (the old default) borders
• Selecting an option or canceling from the Frame Skip, Transparency, or Video Mode menus now returns you to the In-Game menu, where you can then choose Return to Game. This is helpful because going to the In-Game menu auto-saves the VMS File, which takes a short ammount of time. Now, this is only done once and you can change all three options before returning to the game.

• Started writing a "framework" to support different disk drives configurations.
• Rough attempt of TRD emulation. I can only try it on Pentagon, because the Scorpion emulation is still non-functional.
• I've installed Windows 2000, which let me do some tests that Windows 98 didn�t allow me to do. For instance, I spotted a lot of bugs due to not releasing GDI objects after using them, which wasted lots of resources. It's fixed now.

• Casio Virtual Pad: I finally bought a Casio EM-500 and was able to correct this. It turns out this device is double-buffered, so when GAPI is active, none of the GDI calls make it through. This took quite a lot of debugging time to iron out.
• Due to the changes I had to make to the video code, paused games will no longer display the last image of the game.
• Playing on the Casio made me realize how necessary it is for me to make optimizations to the code. I plan on making bug fixes and optimizations for the next couple of months before adding new features again.
• Single Thread: PocketGB is now single threaded again. Everything should work the same, except that hopefully response from the UI will be a little snappier.
• Auto Pause: Introduced an auto pause bug in the last build that was corrected.

• Controller Config/Credits still unavailable from In-Game menu.
• No Sound.

FinalBurn Alpha v0.131

What's New
  1) Now compiled with Christophe's Alpha 5 Kaillera code.
  2) Fixed the crash when using Strider Hiryu (USA).
  3) Multiple ROM path support added courtesy of HyperYagami.


=================================================================

FinalBurn Alpha v0.130

What's New
  1) Now compiled with Christophe's Alpha 4 Kaillera code, a new
     version of the kailleraclient.dll is also included in this
     release.
  2) Added lots of new drivers for Street Fighter (C.E. & Turbo),
     mainly clones though, thanks to everyone who donated these.
     Too many to mention here, but SF2 Red Wave & Rainbow Edition
     are included.
  3) Drivers added for Magic Sword (Mike Hagger) and UN Squadron
     (KEV).
  4) Added my own Knights of the Round driver, thanks go out to
     Mike Hagger for fixing the Gfx issues. Unfortunately the in
     game controls don't work at present :( 
  5) In theory it should be possible to play against someone who
     is using FinalBurn Kaillera Alpha 4, as both use the same 
     code. That said, it would be better if you play against
     someone who is using v0.130 :)


=================================================================

FinalBurn Alpha v0.129

What's New
  1) There's no need to use patched XOR's anymore! Armwar, Pgear
     & Pgearr1 now use the original XOR tables released by Raz. 
     A very big thankyou goes out to Raz & Dayvee for helping me
     solve this problem :)
  2) Pgearr1 now works correctly, and no longer reports the 
     "1010 EXCEPTION 0000716C" message.
  3) Re-ordered the games list. CPS-1/CPS-Changer games can now 
     be found at the bottom of the game list, in alphabetical
     order.
  4) Forced "bReadInputEveryFrame" to default as "0" (off).
     According to Raz this should help with the netplay. The
     "bDrvSaveAll" option should also be set to "0" if you are
     using the netplay feature.
