MAME 0.83 integrates all of the following changes. Patches for MAME v0.81u9:
Unzip this in the base directory, overwriting the old files, and then recompile. I've included a modified driver.c to enable only Sega games, I'm adding it because one set (wwally) is a new addition. You may not want to use this if you want any other games enabled. | |||||||||||||||||||
