Source Changes
--------------
Optimized DISCRETE_RCDISC_MODULATED. Added X_TALs to circus. Optimized
DISCRETE_RCINTEGRATE and DISCRETE_555_ASTABLE. Optimized
DISCRETE_555_ASTABLE_CV and DISCRETE_MIXER. Optimized DISCRETE_555_CC.
The 555 and mixer changes also speed up just about every current
discrete game. [Derrick Renaud]

Added updated information about Sorcer Striker and moved Fix Eight
bootleg PCB layout down by the roms like the other layouts in the
driver. [Brian Troha]

Added redumped roms for the Bubble Symphony (bootleg with OKI6295)
set. [Brian Troha]

Started removing extraneous enable lines from the discrete modules.
Most modules are always enabled anyways. [Derrick Renaud]

Changed MCS-48 core to write p1 and p2 on reset. [couriersud]

dkong/dkongjr: use MB8884 as sound cpu / verified on schematics.
[couriersud]

mcs48.c: Use banking to handle ea line: [couriersud]
* Adds MCS48_INTERNAL_ROMBANK define to header
* Drivers which need to control the ea line have to initialize
banking for internal/external rom
This is not yet optimal but works as expected with existing drivers
and modified mario.c

Changed MCS-48 EA line handling to use an explicit bank for now.
[couriersud]

Added EggVenture readme to lethalj.c. [Guru]

Changed sound cpu type in saiyugb1 to I8748. [couriersud]

dkong.c: S2650 based games consolidated [couriersud]
* consolidated memory maps for S2650 based games
* renamed handlers to s2650_*
* joined protection handlers

Added Cruis'n USA and new Raiden DX/2 readme. Cleaned up some
documentation in raiden2.c. Renamed "Raiden DX (set 2)" to "Raiden DX
(Tuning license)", and renamed ROMs to match the actual PCB.
[Guru]

Updated documentation and disk/ROM names in segas24 based on new
information. [Brian Troha, T.Fujita]

Removed "game_no_sound" from the 2 Hotrod games (in segas24.c) as all
3 seem to have the same sound capabilities. [Brian Troha]

Improvements to galaxi driver... [Roberto Fresca]
- Added Magic Joker.
- Fixed the 3rd background offset to Galaxi.
- Remapped inputs to match the standard poker games.

Began the "big IO_MAP merge of 2008". A number of drivers have had
their I/O space address maps merged. [Andrew Gardner]

Changed the default bootleg gwar pcb to be joystick only, and removed
code duplication. Fixed jcross cabinet dip switches. [Nicola Salmoria]

M377xx: 8-bit I/O port reads no longer cause bogus reads of
neighboring ports. [R. Belmont]

Removed unnecessary ARM7 hooks so MRC and MCR disassemble properly.
[R. Belmont]

Updated TMS5100 LPC tables based on mathematical analysis of 1st and
2nd derivatives of the values and comparison to the best quality
patent image, which nearly always showed which values were in error.
Some off-by-one issues may remain, but it is now nearly perfect.
Further perfection will require PROMOUT dumping, which is planned.
[Lord Nightmare]

snk update: [Nicola Salmoria]
* added another ikari us clone
* renamed ikaria to ikarinc (for Ikari No Continues)

* fixed emulation of the "SNK Wave" custom sound used by Marvin's
Maze and Vanguard II and made it into a proper sound core
* fixed palette decoding of early SNK games (from marvins to
athena + fitegolf). The least significan bits were assigned
incorrectly.
* merged marvins.c into snk.c, with all resulting fixes (removed
hacks, correct shadows, scroll offsets etc)

Replaced aso ROMs (which were possibly from a bootleg) with split ones
that are definitely from an original. Renamed ROMs across sets
accordingly. [Nicola Salmoria]

Converted timekeeper to a device, all default contents are loaded from
disk. slapshot & opwolf3 read/write memory map have been merged.
[smf]

Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs for 'hal21', 'hal21j' (same as 'hal'),
'fitegolf', 'fitegol2' (same as 'fitegolf') and 'countryc'. [stephh]

Changed refreshspeed target to 0.25Hz below rate provided, in order to
guarantee that inexact timings do not lead to sound stuttering.
[Aaron Giles]

Added Fist of the North Star and (partial) Demolish Fist sets
(Atomiswave) and decryption. [Andreas Naive]

Added PCB info for Hard Yardage & earlier World Class Bowling.
Corrected a few rom names. [Brian Troha]

Split core laserdisc functionality into separate file ldcore.c.
Each player now gets its own source file, along with new hooks
which enable more precise control over the behavior. Updated the
PR-8210 and LD-V1000 implementations to the new spec. Other
players will come online shortly. [Aaron Giles]

Changed laserdisc scan behavior so that it requires a constant stream
of signals to continue scanning. Updated ldplayer accordingly.
[Aaron Giles]

Updated debugger to pass running_machine around where appropriate.
Added running_machine to several devices which really should
eventually be converted into proper devices. [Oliver Stoenberg]

Concluded input port cleanups for drivers W->Z. Changed Primal Rage
start buttons into input buttons. Removed unused protection bit in
Driver's Edge. Introduced a new PORT_CUSTOM which returns a tagged
input that can be used to route bits from one port into another.
[Fabio Priuli]

Added the missing SHA1 checksums to the atrowar set.
[Oliver Stoenberg]

Added basic implementation of the "update ended" interrupt flag to the

Source Changes
--------------
Changed DIRECTINPUT & DIRECT3D handling, so they can be overridden by
environment variables. [smf]

Readded generic calls to install memory handlers that were in long
before 0.126u5 - these are useful on the MESS side for things like
the PC driver. [Nathan Woods]

HD63484 improvements: [robiza]
* fixed cpx and cpy when a ptn or a agcpy command is executed
* fixed for PTN command: copy direction and dot color

sequence:

cpunum_set_input_line(5, ASSERT_LINE);
cpunum_set_input_line(3, ASSERT_LINE);
cpunum_set_input_line(3, CLEAR_LINE);

now works as expected. This required fixes to several Atari and other
drivers. [Olivier Galibert]

screen dip switch
- Guerrilla War, Psycho Soldier, Chopper I, TouchDown Fever /
Fighting Soccer
- tilemaps
- proper memory map
- input, dip locations, etc.
- Bermuda Triangle / World Wars
- removed ROM patches
- simulated "turbo front" check
- renamed bermudao->bermudaj

match the new findings. [Nicola Salmoria]

Removed duplicate buttons in sf2hack. Promoted sf2m2 clone to
working. [robiza]

Added helper function devtag_get_device(machine, type, tag) to
retrieve the device_config for (type, tag). [couriersud]

synchronized dancing for the background characters. [ShimaPong]

Fixed bug when writing AVI files with more than one RIFF chunk.
Added missing chdman error messages when extracting to an AVI file.
[Aaron Giles]

Derived CPS2/CPS3 video timing based on measurements. These are
educated guesses. The logic behind the derivations is shown in the
source. [Aaron Giles]

Game-A-Tron gambling hardware updates: [Roberto Fresca]
- Added sound support to "Poker 4-1" and "Pull Tabs".

- Switched the 8255 port C to be used as output port.
- Adjusted the coin pulse timing.
- Updated technical notes.
- Splitted the driver to driver + video.
- Final clean-up.

Fixed problem that would cause the "Return To Prior Menu" menu item to
not stick if one is calling ui_menu_reset() with
UI_MENU_RESET_REMEMBER_POSITION, and that menu item is selected.
[Nathan Woods]

Added PR-8210 support to the ldplayer. Fixed step forward command on
the PR-8210. [Aaron Giles]

Changed Journey and Domino Man to 4-way joysticks. [John Rieman]

Added Discrete Sound for Starship 1. Still need to properly emulate
the MC3340. [Derrick Renaud]

Changed some decryptions in igs_blit.c to use program roms loaded
byteswapped. Decrypted Mahjong Man Guan Cai Shen, Mahjong Long
Hu Zheng Ba 2, Mahjong Shuang Long Qiang Zhu 2, and Mahjong Super
Da Man Guan 2. [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]

Added save state for discrete node->output to ensure that input nodes
save states. [couriersud]

Added a new generic latch device. Generic emulation of 74LS174/175,
74LS259 and other latches. Apart from providing synched latch
operation, these latches can be configured to read their input
bitwise from other devices as well and individual bits can be
connected to discrete nodes. Please see audio/dkong.c for examples.
[couriersud]

dkong & friends: Use new latch device [couriersud]
* adds new latch device where appropriate
* increased accuracy since now all main/sound cpu communications
are properly latched
* removed quite some code as a consequence
* minor cosmetic edits

Updated adp memory map. [robiza]

m4510 core fixes: [robiza]
- banking in read and write operations
- jsr and jsrx instruction
- fixed TSY instruction

Optimized ycc_to_rgb conversion code. [couriersud]

Added readme for The Simpsons. [Guru]

zn.c improvements: [smf]
- Improved dip switch emulation, ram hacks to get games booting are
no longer required.
- Added gun emulation for judge dredd.
- Fixed judge dredd ide emulation when building with visual studio.
- Mapped primal rage 2 inputs
- Mapped player 3 & 4 inputs for 1 on 1 government, these are now
the default with the 6 button inputs only mapped for games that
need them.
- Converted AT28C16 to a device.
- Added preliminary support for devices to load/save nvram.

Added some initial logic to boot and run the PR-8210 ROM (i8049)
in ldplayer.c. Currently this is disabled behind a compile-time
switch. Once this is working, the plan is to incorporate this into
the existing PR-8210 emulation, but we're not there yet. [Aaron Giles]

Changed Trivia Quest clocks based on some really old information.
[Pierpaolo Prazzoli]

Added new function tilemap_set_pen_data_offset(). While this isn't
'free' as tilemap_set_palette_offset() is (when the offset changes,
the pixmap cache needs to be invalidated), it helps removing some
redundant code from drivers. Updated snk.c and snk68.c to take
advantage of the new function. [Nicola Salmoria]

Significant cleanup/rewrite of the MCS-48 CPU core:
* renamed from i8039 to mcs48
* changed to use data address space for internal RAM
* added internal memory maps for variants with internal RAM/ROM
* added a number of variants from documentation
* removed redundant and unused definitions from header file
* renamed constants and functions to be MCS48* prefixed
* re-verified all opcode behaviors and timing
* changed illegal opcodes to count 1 cycle to avoid infinite loops
* changed EA behavior so that it is a push from the driver instead of a pull on each opcode fetch
(this may change further in the future).
* reimplemented IRQ generation and timer behavior according to documentation
* updated all drivers accordingly
* fixed several uses of PULSE_LINE, which no longer works

SH4, Naomi, and Hikaru updates [Samuele Zannoli]
- Fixed SH-4 core to support multiple SH-4s
- Fixed LDCSR instruction
- Fixed SH-4 I/O ports
- Skeleton Hikaru driver with memory maps and both SH-4s
- Fixed JVS/Maple translation so Naomi 2 BIOS runs

Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs for 'jcross' and 'sgladiat'. [stephh]

Changed slider controls into a menu. For now, removed the old direct
access mechanism; instead, you must access the sliders via the main
menu. While in the menu, you can use the ~ key to turn off the menu
display and leave only the bar display, in order to see more of the
screen. [Aaron Giles]

Namco NB 1/2 work: [Olivier Galibert]
- Shares the memory with the c75.
- Renames the c75 region to c7x from user4.
- Implements the c75 reset/halt control.
- Implements the irqs more correctly.

Small optimization to memory handling for 68000 core.
[Christophe Jaillet]

Fixed input port confusion in the 8080bw driver. Connected AVGDVG
status bits via PORT_CUSTOM. [Fabio Priuli]

Updated stepper motor code to use a MAME-style config interface,
rather than a load of setting functions. Changed optic functions to
use clearly defined start and end points. Added standard layout for
Starpoint units used in many machines. Updated all affected drivers.
[James Wallace]

Removed useless backslashes lurking throughout the code. [Atari Ace]

Improvements to magic10.c driver: [Roberto Fresca]
- Added Magic's 10 version 16.15
- Remapped all inputs to match other poker games.
- Added a missing input to Magic's 10 games.

MAMETesters Bugs Fixed
----------------------
- 02105: [Graphics] qbert and clones: Misplaced graphics.
(Aaron Giles)
- 02119: [Sound] cischeat, bigrun: no sound (Aaron Giles)
- 02121: [DIP/Input] reactor: input controls and startup tone
(Aaron Giles)
- 02116: [Graphics] all sets in cps2.c : corrupted graphics (robiza)
- 01992: [Crash/Freeze] timecrsa, timecris: SubCPU start wait fails
test (robiza)

(Fabio Priuli)
- 02115: [DIP/Input] berlwall, berlwalt: Player 1 inputs not working
(Fabio Priuli)



Source Changes
--------------
Converted adp to 4bpp rendering. [robiza]

Began implementing 68681 device in skattv. Improved hd63484 core to
support some initial graphics. [robiza]

Added correct CRCs for DOA2. [Guru]

Fixed graphics in cps2 games. [robiza]

Updated documentation in paradise.c: [Brian Troha]
- Added PCB layout for Torus & Mad Ball
- Corrected rom names and / or added U locations

Changed at28c16 memory handlers to 8 bits and perform the conversion
in the memory mapping. [smf]

Update the t5182.c documentation/pinout. [Lord Nightmare]

Magic10 updates: [Roberto Fresca]
- Simulated the co-processor to pass the initial test.
- All Inputs worked from the scratch.
- Fixed position of tilemap layers.
- Added scroll register preliminary support.
- Fixed Super Pool graphics.

Added save states to 65816 CPU. [R. Belmont]

SH-2 DRC updates: [R. Belmont]
- Moved IRQ handling front-end into recompiled code
- Added TSTM/ANDM/XORM instructions
- Added SH-1 CPU support, including lower precision on MAC.W and
locking out SH-2 only instructions

Split out SH-4 non-interpreter-specific stuff to sh4comn.c.
[R. Belmont]

Identified compatible timekeeper used by Midway Zeus II. Removed all
the timekeeper memory handlers, except for 8 bit & changed the drivers
to use the conversion built into the memory system. [smf]

Added new generic laserdisc VIDEO_UPDATE handler to the laserdisc code.
This handler works for both disc-only games and those with overlays.
For disc-only games, the base macro is sufficient. For games with
overlays, an additional set of configuration macros are provided:

MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY - specifies update function, width, height,
and bitmap format of the overlay
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY_CLIP - specifies the visible area of the
overlay bitmap
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY_POSITION - specifies default x,y position
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY_SCALE - specifies default x,y scale factors

The update function provided to MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY is identical to
a normal VIDEO_UPDATE callback, so a standard one can be used. All
existing laserdisc drivers have been updated to support this new
rendering mechanism, removing much duplicated code. [Aaron Giles]

Added the ability to configure the overlay position and scale
parameters at runtime. Added OSD menus to control them. Added logic
to save/restore the data in the game's configuration file.
[Aaron Giles]

Added new macros MDRV_LASERDISC_SCREEN_ADD_NTSC and _PAL, which
defines a standard screen with the correct video timing characteristics
and update function for laserdiscs. Updated all drivers to use these
macros instead of defining their own screens. [Aaron Giles]

Added DISK_REGIONS to all laserdisc drivers. [Aaron Giles]

Added DISK_IMAGE_READONLY_OPTIONAL to support games (like Cube Quest)
where the disk is non-essential to the game's operation. [Aaron Giles]

Fixed bug in identifying the custom sound driver for the laserdisc.
[Aaron Giles]

Updated ldverify to identify blank regions of the disc for post-
processing. [Aaron Giles]

Fixed rendering 16bpp with alpha using bilinear filters (fixes
screenshots of laserdisc games with overlays). [Aaron Giles]

Included support for parsing .gdi files in chdman. [ElSemi]

Added new driver for Cube Quest. This includes CPU cores for the three
bitslice processors, as well as laserdisc support for the hacked
laserdisc that was used to drive the games.
[Philip Bennett, Joe Magiera, Warren Ondras]

Updated cps1 to use proper gfx ROMs (+ PALs) for varthj, and to load
correct A-Board PALs for QSound games. [Nicola Salmoria]

Added address decode prom 5e to dkong3/dkong3j. [couriersud]

Reduced YM2612 DAC level relative to FM. This better matches real
hardware. [R. Belmont]

Added validity check to ensure that AM_READ_PORT() macros reference
valid ports. Fixed several cases where the check failed. [Aaron Giles]

Added new Guru readme for namcos22 driver. [Guru]

Added validity check to ensure that ports referenced by a condition
actually exist. Fixed a case where this was violated. [Aaron Giles]

Added DIP locations to dooyong.c. [Guy Hufkens]

Added cheat functions frombcd() and tobcd() to convert numbers to/from
BCD format. Changed "Activate" to "Set" in the menus. [Aaron Giles]

A couple of minor cleanups: [Oliver Stoenberg]
- removed obsolete ENABLE_DEBUGGER occurance
- removed more unprintable characters in SH-2 disassembler
- memset() usage cleanups
- removed duplicated TMS5110 entry in sound.mak
- use machine in uigfx.c where it's already available

Removed included "profiler.h" from files that do not use profiling
functions. [Christophe Jaillet]

Source Changes
--------------
Updated the FD1089 decryption algorythm to use the real keys generated
by the LCG as found by Andreas Naive. The algorithm is more complex
than it should be, but I haven't been able to simplify it more. The
keys are still embedded in the source. It would now be reasonable to
move them to external files; however, for several games we only have
partial keys so the files would need to be BAD_DUMP. [Nicola Salmoria]

Changed ad2083 to load PROM data instead of using hardcoded values.
[couriersud]

Updated structure and naming conventions of sound and CPU cores to
match core conventions. [Derrick Renaud]

Added discrete sound for Mad Alien. [Derrick Renaud]

Hooked up discrete filtering to SN76477 in Space Chaser.
[Derrick Renaud]

Improvements to Lucky74.c driver: [Roberto Fresca, Grull Osgo]
- Reverse engineering of custom IC's 06B49P, 06B53P & 09R81P.
- Mapped the missing 3x SN76489.
- Measured and traced all clocks on the board.
- Measured and fixed the interrupt system.
- Implemented timings/clocks from custom 06B49P.
- Added sound support. All regular game sounds/musics are working.
- Implemented the ADPCM samples system through 09R81P + M5205
emulation.
- Added pinouts and technical notes about custom IC's 06B49P,
06B53P & 09R81P.
- Added flip screen mode.
- Inverted the order of double-up difficult DIP switches.
- Changed 'Key In' to be active LOW instead of HIGH
- Complete memory map and ports scheme.
- Created handlers for USART port and co-processor communication.
- Renamed the sets accordingly.
- Updated all notes.
- Cleaned-up the driver.

Merged memory maps for drivers tigeroad, timelimt, toobin, tumbleb.c,
tbowl, thedeep, and thief. Also changed gfx memory region tags in
obvious cases. [Andrew Gardner]

Added sprite wrapping to Irem m63 driver.
[Tomasz Slanina, Stefan Lindberg]

More FM OPN fixes [Eke, R. Belmont]
- Pass chip type around and restore Jarek's original behavior for
YM2203/YM2610
- Always recalculate attack rate in set_ar_ksr, fixes Megadrive/
Genesis "Batman & Robin"

Implemented MWR (memory width register) in shanghai to avoid
hardcoded 384 value for screen width. [robiza]

Added the Plotting PAL to the Japanese set. Also corrected the PAL
ROM name. [Brian Troha]

KO Punch boxer graphics had to be doubled. [Nicola Salmoria]

Fixed NMI on Mad Alien sound CPU. This fixes shot sound and various
other sound glitches. Marked madalien and madalina as Imperfect
Graphics. They are missing an effect. When you shoot an enemy in the
dark, the whole screen lights up. Basically the headlights fill the
whole screen. [Guru, Derrick Renaud]

Added reverse engineered PLD images to CPS1 games (A-board to all
and B-board and C-board to many).
[Corrado Tomaselli, Charles MacDonald]

Rejiggered huffman.c to support multiple interleaving streams and a
delta-RLE pre-encoding. Added optimized case for the Y/Cb/Y/Cr video
encoding case. Cleaned up the code. [Aaron Giles]

Updated avcomp.c to use the new huffman.c functions. Reworked
configuration options to allow for both input and output of naturally
aligned data streams. Updated chdman and laserdsc to use the new
interfaces. New compression gives an additional 3-7% over previous
attempt and compresses the dummy CHDs down significantly.
[Aaron Giles]

Some improvements to shanghai video drivers: [robiza]
1) convert framebuffer's ram from 8 bit to 16 bit
2) convert dma command from 8 bit to 16 bit
3) convert gfx command from 8 bit to 16 bit
4) implemented all gfx mode: 1,2,4,8,16 bpp
Now we can use this gfx chip for adp driver that use 4bpp.

updated Alpha 8302 MCU simulation to match newly dumped internal ROM.
Added the ROM to Champion Baseball 2. [Nicola Salmoria]

Added video level detection and reporting to ldverify. [Aaron Giles]

Fixed incorrect test in winwork that led to spinning instead
of using the nicely allocated events we had on hand. [Aaron Giles]

Forced a sound synchronization on each vsync in the laserdisc
playback. This prevents overwriting the tail end of the buffer which
was fouling up the MACH 3 audio decoding. [Aaron Giles]

Fixed ROM mapping and added preliminary video emulation to galaxia.
[Tomasz Slanina]

Fix coolridr crash with DRC, now hangs waiting for impossible
conditions again. [R. Belmont]

Added new flag to menu items: MENU_FLAG_DISABLE, which means the
item will be visible but not selectable. [Aaron Giles]

Fixed bug that prevented the cheat engine from working when the
debugger was disabled. [Aaron Giles]

Modified xmlfile.c to accept integer values in decimal or hex. The
default is decimal. Numbers may be prefixed by '#' for decimal
values, or by '$' or '0x' to indicate hexadecimal values. Also
added function xml_get_attribute_int_format() to return the format
of the attribute, so that it can be later replicated. [Aaron Giles]

Updated cheat parser to preserve the format of attribute values
used for cheat parameters and items. [Aaron Giles]

Added support for information-only cheat items, which will be
displayed in the menu but which are not selectable and have no
action associated with them. Empty information-only items are
automatically converted to menu separators. [Aaron Giles]

Moved several include files from mame/ to emu/, as they were included
by generic components in emu/ and thus should have no dependencies
on the MAME code. [Aaron Giles]

Added new target ldplayer, which is based on MAME but serves as a
standalone laserdisc player for CHDs. Right now only the Pioneer
LD-V1000 is connected, and limited commands are available. Each player
type is a driver, so you specify the player type on the command-line.
The driver then opens the first CHD it finds in your ROM path and
uses that as the laserdisc. The intention is that you specify the
-rompath each time on the command-line, so a typical approach might
be:

ldplayer ldv1000 -rompath j:\mach3

where it will pick up the mach3.chd lurking in your j:\mach3 folder.
Several basic commands are supported:

Space = play/pause
Alt = toggle frame display
Left = scan forward (when playing) or step forward (when paused)
Right = scan backward (when playing) or step backward (when paused)
0-9 = enter numbers for search
Enter = execute search to frame

[Aaron Giles]

Implemented proper shadow handling in SNK drivers. [Nicola Salmoria]

Corrected rom names with PCB locations for Lady Bug and verified the
dump against an original Universal Lady Bug PCB. Added information
about the Universal PCB number and prom type. [Brian Troha]

Improved input ports for drivers starting with F->M. In particular:
they add AM_READ_PORT whenever suitable, they make inputs fully 32bit
where needed, they remove indexed input read handlers from INITs, they
replace many read handlers with appropriate CUSTOM_INPUTs.
[Fabio Priuli]

Additional input port improvements: [Fabio Priuli]
* added dip switches and locations to go2000 (even if they were
partially documented in the source)
* fixed artmagic protection (it used a wrong tag, which probably
I added somewhere in 0.125uX)
* changed a lot of input related things in irem m10->m107 irem boards.
First of all, moved input definitions from drivers/m92.h to
include/iremipt.h and removed completely drivers/m92.h (which
only contained those definitions). Added more common inputs to
iremipt.h and started to use that file in m62->m107 instead
of local #defines. Finally, added diplocations to all the games
in m62->m107 which were missing and it implemented coinage mode 2
through dipconditions in the drivers which didn't support it.
* converted most of the games checking avgdvg_done() in inputs to use
a CUSTOM_INPUT (defined in video/avgdvg.c)

Fixed the i386 CPU core's BSR implementation for the case where the
high bit is set. [Atari Ace]

Added DIP locations to clshroad.c. [RansAckeR]

Collapsed timer callbacks in some cases to avoid duplicating code. In
the case of crystal.c, also refactored two DMA handlers and shuffleed
the init/reset code around a bit. [Atari Ace]

Cleaned up and grouped the sound chip entries based on sound.mak.
[Oliver Stoeneberg]

Fixed sfiii3's title animation and the linear zoom effect that
OopsWare didn't improve properly since 0.122u7. [Joshua Chang]
