———–
v0.2.96.73
This is still an alpha release!
Note that, if compiled with GCC, you will need to use version 3.3.x, and
the experimental DirectX 9 blitter is not built.
Thanks go to the neosource forum regulars for a lot of this stuff. iq_132 has
written many drivers for older games, and Oopsware has contributed some impressive
drivers too. Captain CPS-X and KOF2112 have also tidied up some things. This list

- Added support for multiple YM2203s to the YM2203 interface
- Updated all sets to match MAME 0.123u1
- Tidied up all source code to compile cleanly for all builds (unicode, non-unicode,
debug, non-debug)
- Added support for M6502 CPU
- Added support for SH-2 CPU
- Added support for NEC V30 family CPU
- Seperated misc drivers into “Misc (pre 90s)” and “Misc (post 90s)”
- Moved some common sound cores into the burn folder
- Added various clones and fixed some little issues in various games
- Added driver for Madgear and Last Duel
- Added driver for 1942
- Added preliminary driver for 1943 and added support to the Zet interface to get the
BC register

- Cleaned up the drivers by iq_132 (seperated into Misc pre 90s category, corrected
aspect ratios, fixed rom-sets, etc.)

- Added a d_parent module to put required parent drivers that don’t have a specific
