History.dat 1.74b extracted from arcade-history.com
WHAT's NEW:
- to7_qd, to7_cass, mo5_cass, mo5_cart and to7_cart softlists entries added.
- About mo5_cass and to7_cass: Sometimes, a double cassette is used (MO5 + TO7 version on the same cassette). In this case, I'm using $to7_cass,mo5_cass=romname,
There is three types of configuration for these cassettes:
$to7_cass=romname, (for standalone TO7 cassette)
$mo5_cass=romname, (for standalone MO5 cassette)
$to7_cass,mo5_cass=romname, (for TO7/MO5 double faces cassette)
It works fine in QMC2 but for some reason not in MAME.
EXAMPLE:
here is the TO7/MO5 AIR ATTACK entry in the history.dat :
Quote:
$to7_cass,mo5_cass=aattack,aattacka,aattackb,aattackc,
$bio
Air Attack (c) 1985 Microids.
- TECHNICAL -
FACE A: T07
FACE B: MO5
$end
In MAME, if you browse the TO7 softlist, you'll see the AIR ATTACK cassette information from the history.dat in the Info tab,
But if you try to browse the MO5 softlist version of AIR ATTACK, the history.dat information is not shown.
if a MAMEdev. can take a look at this problem and fix it... Thanks in advance
