board isn't running well enough yet for it to make a difference. Hooked up the FDC37665GT and HLE the XVD701 and the 68k sound board responses to get most of the games booting. There is no sound and the games all fail with a hdd error when you start a stage. Beatmania IIDX with DDR 2nd Club Version wants the GQ863 hard disk. [smf]

which allows to launch SMS games in the gamegear driver, with video chip
in SMS mode. You can try this by launching
mess.exe gamegear -cart mgear -cart2 your_sms_game
(the -cart2 switch becomes available when you mount "mgear" in the main
gamegear cart slot) [Fabio Priuli]
out of the whatsnew: for the moment only fullpath loading is supported, and it is not
ensured to work 100%. thanks to Enik Land for pointing me to the necessary info.

cartridges and implemented the IntelliVoice expansion and
the Entertainment Computer System expansion as passthru
devices. The official syntax to launch games requiring the
speech expansion is now
mess intv -cart voice -cart2 gamename
which corresponds to mounting the IntelliVoice and plugging
the game cart in its subslot. The official syntax to launch games
requiring the ECS expansion is now instead
mess intv -cart ecs -cart2 gamename
and
mess intv -cart ecs -cart2 voice -cart3 gamename
if the game requires both expansions at once. For additional user
friendliness, we also offer intvecs (which emulates an Intellivision
unit with both expansions added) and intvoice (which emulates
an Intellivision with Intellivoice expansion added) drivers, where
games can simply be mounted with the -cart media switch. [Fabio

cartridges, removed The Voice add-on from the main system
and emulated it as a passthru cart instead. Now, if you want to
enjoy speech in odyssey/videopac games, you must launch
emulation with
mess.exe odyssey2 -cart voice -cart2 gamename
(the -cart2 switch becomes available when "voice" is mounted
in the first cartslot) [Fabio Priuli]

The 9801f will read the hdd but appears to not like disks without 256 byte sectors.
The ux and rs don't even attempt to access the sasi controller and seem to have no driver in their firmwares, are they supposed to have an external rom?

basic allocation and access handlers, and converted a few
drivers to use this instead of code from cartslot.c [Fabio Priuli]
out of whatsnew: the RAM socket part is just a proof of concept,
and the natural extension of the line of thought which lead me
to this generic socket/cartslot. it might allow to convert current RAM
device to be a slot device as well (after some refactorization, of
course, since current code lacks many of the necessary features),
or be removed soonish, depending on consensus.

The diagnose program mostly works but I'm sure there are still many more bugs, it definitely isn't near as usable as the hle (at least yet).

in the softlist. The official syntax to launch disk games is now
mess famicom -cart disksys -flop gamename
which corresponds to inserting the RAM expansion cart with
connected the disk drive into the cartslot and the desired disk
in the disk drive (exactly like you would have done with the
real thing). In this way, you cannot mount anymore both a cart and
a disk in the Family Computer (as in a real unit).
Users that cannot cope with this limitation and/or with the new
syntax can still use the famitwin driver (which offers both cart and
disk options) or the newly added driver fds which emulates a
famicom with the expansion always inserted: in both latter cases
the old syntax
mess famitwin -flop gamename
will launch the game, as previously. [Fabio Priuli]
(MESS) famicom: fixed disk system IRQ latch clear in Kaettekita
Mario Bros. based on investigations by FHorse. [Fabio Priuli]
Out of whatsnew: For the moment I gave up the original plan to
also modernize the floppy drive and the disk format. If anyone
wants to look into these, be my guest :-)

- Fixed YM2151 clock in XM expansion, thanks to info from
tep392 and GroovyBee
- Added support for homebrew boards MegaCart+ and
VersaBoard by CPUWIZ (ROM respectively up to 512K
and 256K + 32K of RAM)
- Misc cleanups
out of whatsnew: I have also added, for debugging purposes, a VersaBoard with SG 9banks + POKEY at 0x0450
in the hope to find out exactly what goes currently wrong in the emulation of some homebrew games... let's see...

- Rewritten cart emulation to use slot devices (many
"mappers" do not fully work) and unified cart handling
among 8bit home computers, XEGS and Atari 5200
- Added support for loading carts with bankswitch to all XL/XE
models
- Added support for loading XEGS carts in Atari 8bits home
computers (XEGS instead will only load XEGS games until
support for the keyboard add-on is included)
- Big clean up of the driver, simplifying memory map, removing
writes to ROM, etc.
- Changed NOT_WORKING flag to IMPERFECT_GRAPHICS
in 600XL, 65XE, 800XE and XEGS since they should now be
working to the same extent of the 800XL, and bugs shall be
reported.
as a consequence of the above changes, the new softlists a800.xml, a5200.xml
and xegs.xml are not compatible anymore with 0.154: keep the old xmls until
0.155 if you don't compile your own exe

- Rewritten cart emulation to use slot devices
- Removed POKEY chip from the main unit since it was inside
the carts (of course it gets enabled when you launch a game
who contained it in its cart)
- Added support for the High Score cart as a passthru cart: when
you mount hiscore, a -cart2 switch will become available to mount
the game you want to play
- Properly implemented XBoarD and XM expansions as
passthru carts as well, so that new syntax to run dkxm.a78 is
"mess a7800 -cart xm -cart2 path\to\games\dkxm.a78"
High Score support for XM shall work as well.
- Big clean up of the driver, simplifying memory map, removing
writes to ROM, etc.
Out of whatsnew: In conclusion, a7800.c has been brought into the new millennium ;-)

The -cass media switch (to load the tape file) will become available only
when you mount the Supercharger cart. [Fabio Priuli]

Message that was posted to me
"Hi David
It was to my great disappointment that your work on the NeoGeo Multislot (Dec 2013) was not included in MAME. To aid the process I've taken your work and spent some hours addressing the concerns put forward by the developers. The code I'm sending to you converts Neo Geo to fully use slot devices for the cartridges and implements the multi-slot using techniques that have greater likelihood of being met with approval.
In some places the slot trampolines caused performance to drop below 100% so I've used methods to avoid them gathered by the study of other slot devices in MESS. Performance is the same as it was prior to this update.
I first sent this with the forms on the official site but received no reply so I'm turning to you directly.
