- Finally found the typo in MESS that prevented the SNES sound from being in full stereo

- Updated MAME’s NSS/SNES code to the latest MESS

 

BTW, Guru got a dump of the Namco/Raizing light-gun shooter “Ghoul Panic”/”Oh Bakyuun!” from a friend but the MCU program on that board seems to be fried. We can’t emulate System 12 games without a working MCU program, so if you have a working PCB of this game and are willing to loan it out for dumping, please contact the Dumping Project or private message me on any of the 3 forums I post on: bannister.org, mame.net, or mameworld.net.

Emu#dreams reports Final Burn Evolution has been updated to version 3.01. Final Burn Evolution is a multiple arcade machine emulator. Below are the changes in this version.

* Neo-Geo

--- Updated set "The King of Fighters 10th Anniversary 2005 (Unique) - All Team Battle" - working - thanks to iq_132, and razoola (for kawaks support...)

--- Added "Lansquenet 2004" - working - thanks to iq_132, and razoola (for kawaks support...)

--- Added "The King of Fighters 2002 (Magic Plus II)" - working - thanks to iq_132, and razoola (for kawaks support...)

--- Added "The King of Gladiator" - working - thanks to iq_132, and razoola (for kawaks support...)

--- Added "The King of Fighters 2003 (Set 2) - working - thanks to iq_132 and a friend

--- Added "The King of Fighters 96 (Bootleg)" - working - thanks to iq_132 and robbert

--- Added a code to fix kof10thu and kf10thep s1 on the memory

--- * This code fixes the infinite time counter bug and the maximum bar bug

--- Renamed "The King Of Fighters 2002 (Magic Plus)" set

--- * Now it calls "kof2k2mp.zip" (but it also reads the old zip file: "kf2k2mpl.zip")

--- Updated m1d on samsho5 and clones

--- Updated v4 on lastblad to the good dump

--- Changed the bootleg roms layout - now it is like "xxx-xxb.bin"

--- * Why have I changed that? Because almost all of bootlegs have their rom chips unreadable, that's why we cant confirm the rom names... so, I prefer to use a layout for every rom, that makes the emu more organized

 

* CPS2

--- Added "Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo (Asia 960529)" xor

 

* Misc

--- Changed the way the inputs were saved, now it saves the input automatically, without confirmation

--- * it was causing desynchronizes and lag on kaillera

--- Added a hotkey to record and stop recording inputs (CTRL + I) - thanks to shoometsu for help me

--- Changed the "chat key" on kaillera to "<---" (the same on kawaks)

--- Changed the "fps key" to " - " (on the same button as "underline")

--- Fixed "Hotkeys" (A+B, B+C, A+B+C, etc...)

--- Added a link to FiNaL BuRn EvOLuTioN Home page (WIP) - thanks to Blaze, web designer of the page

--- Removed the code that disabled the "Num Lock" key when you open fb evo

 

* Dynamic

--- Added neo-pcm2 support (update your "Dynamic creator kit" !!!!)

--- Added some inits for the newer games
