Thanks to the wonderful Mr. Harris, all of the games that use a k053260 (simpsons, parodius, and roller games [and vendetta/escape kids]) now have good, working sound. :)

That's great, thanks iq_132 and Mr. Harris.

iq_132, since Kangaroo is so highly enjoyed by you, then I promise to play it with the next release to see what I've been missing.  :biggrin:

Please do. :)

Btw, added Vendetta and Escape Kids -- the last two working games using the Konami Custom CPU. :)

How well does Chequered Flag work in MAME?

That's a good question.  Going by the notes in the source, the missing protection seems to cause a variety of funky problems. I haven't checked it out further than that.

So I started looking at some old drivers that crapped out on doze...

Of course, the first one I tried out works!

I modified my eeprom code just a bit more, it's almost completely compatible with old code now (same function names, etc). :)

I also went back and looked at Twin Brats (on Steel Force / Mighty Warriors hardware) and fixed a few stupid mistakes and modified the eeprom writes.

Lastly, I went back and fixed the sprite shadow mirroring making the Simpsons' shadows work correctly.

Instead of fixing bugs (or better yet, doing homework), I went ahead and added blended shadows to some of the konami sprite chips. :) 
It needs priorities implemented properly for it to work well with simpsons, but it seems to work pretty well with X-Men. :)

All of the m92 games use almost identical hardware.  It's really just a matter of  getting the sound set up properly and loading the roms.

Spent way too much time on getting these up and fast. The sprite routines still need optimized, save states hooked up, and general cleanup, and it should be good to go. :)

Awesome, so that actually means that m92 emulation is on the horizon? Or do you mean that I should do something with the emu on my part - the ROM sure doesn't load in FBA.

No lol sorry. There is a somewhat preliminary m92 driver in fba already.  I've modified it to load the roms and init, so I can get Ninja Baseball Bat Man to show the "winners don't do drugs" screen, but it locks up there. Seems the IRQ stuff isn't quite right.

*edit*
Oop! Just saw this on maws...

0.36b6: Bryan McPhail added Ninja Baseball Batman (Irem 1993) (Testdriver) and clone Yakyuu Kakutou League-Man (Japan). Very picky about interrupts. Doesn't work!

Barry went ahead and added the funky seibu sound to my Toki driver. :)
With a bit of work, I also hooked it up to blood brothers and Sky Smasher. :)

Because of that, both are now working just fine. :)
