What driver should I port next?

It must be either

Motorola m6800
Motorola m6803
Hitachi HD63701
Hitachi HD6309
Motorola m6809
Signetics 2650 (s2650)

and use one of the sound cores already in FBA:

AY8910
SN76489
SN76489a
SN76496
YM2151
YM2203
YM2608
YM2610

YMF287B
msm5205
msm6295 (oki)
x1010
ymz280b

Please include links to Maws (http://www.mameworld.net/maws/) or whatever technical docs you want me to look at.

Huh? That's a sound core.  It's already in FBA.

I'll look at it, but I don't generally like to add systems that are have "Imperfect" status in MAME. That, and games that use konami drawing functions generally are a P.I.T.A. to work with.

Ok, I'll remove it.  Btw, I wanted to ask, is there a way to set ports up for the YM2203? I couldn't find anything like that in the source. TIA. :)

It doesn't currently - but it should be fairly trivial to change the init function to accept functions to read ports and then just pass them through to the AY8910InitYM calls.

For example,

Instead of this;

Code: [Select]
AY8910InitYM(i, nClockFrequency, nBurnYM2203SoundRate, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, BurnAY8910UpdateRequest);
You could use;

Code: [Select]
AY8910InitYM(i, nClockFrequency, nBurnYM2203SoundRate, PortARead, PortBRead, PortAWrite, PortBWrite, BurnAY8910UpdateRequest);
where PortARead, PortBRead, PortAWrite, PortBWrite are passed via the BurnYM2203 init function.

I already have something like that in my source, but I figured there had to be some sort of port handling there already though.

I 'am not sure if they allready emulated in FBA, but some older Games from Konami would be nice. :biggrin:


You know, I've looked over the first three (600, amidar, frogger) a few times in the past and noticed they use Galaxian's video hardware.  I was thinking they were in Treble_Winner's Galaxian stuff, but I see they aren't. ^^  So that's a possibility.

And pooyan looks like a good prospect except that that weird sound setup. :)

Thanks the for suggestions Jens.  Good researching!

btw, please do keep posting suggestions.

I was thinking about redoing Galaxian from scratch at some point. But if you want to do it then feel free. :)
