0.58 [David Graves, RAINE team]


TEST MODE:

- Reset the game while pressing START1 to enter the test mode.


WIP:

- 0.183: AJR added HCT157 for ADPCM interface and interface for 93C46 EEPROM. Modernization and sound improvements: Break up the bogus IOC structure and use 8-bit handlers where appropriate. This fixes a music playback glitch due to the old handler's failure to take byte mirroring into account. Improved OKI M6295 sounds by using correct bit for banking. Load more music by sending interrupt when ES-8712 finishes playing sample. Updated machine flags to better reflect current emulation status.

- 0.181: Changed description to 'Grand Cross v1.02F'.

- 0.155: Brian Troha and System11 added PCB layout for Grand Cross. Note: A pic of the PCB shows a few things are missing from the emulation: No ES-8712 ADPCM support, need to determine the correct controls for the M6585 along with the ES-8712 and sample rom use. Missing the EEPROM support.

- 0.154: David Haywood moved some gcpinbal / aquarium code around for later refactoring.

- 0.147: Robbbert fixed Grand Cross crash before OK in debug build (sound\msm5205.c).

- 0.146u4: hap added minimal support for MSM6585 sound to Grand Cross. Brian Troha added DIP locations to Grand Cross and comment about the OKI MSM6585 sound chip. Replaced MSM5205 sound with MSM6585 (640000 Hz).

- 0.135u3: Fabio Priuli added driver data struct and save states to Grand Cross.

- 0.131u3: Angelo Salese fixed Oki banking in Grand Cross. Added basic ADPCM support.

- 0.131u1: MooglyGuy merged memory maps in Grand Cross.

- 0.106u9: David Haywood fixed an address error in Grand Cross by disabling the IRQ rather for now rather than making a new sound core (it's caused by the sound IRQ..but the music player was ripped out by Aaron ages ago, related?).

- 0.93: Replaced ADPCM sound with MSM5205 (384000Hz).

- 0.77: R. Belmont added full sound/music in Grand Cross. Fixed the drivers to allow to have MSM6295s and plain ADPCM voices coexist (required for gcpinbal). Added ADPCM (mono) sound.

- 0.76u2: R. Belmont added OKI6295 sounds in Grand Cross. Added MSM6295 (8000 Hz) stereo sound.

- 1st November 2003: R. Belmont fixed the ADPCM functions so that games can have both MSM6295 sound chips and plain ADPCM at the same time, and he added complete sound emulation to Grand Cross Pinball.

- 30th October 2003: R. Belmont added partial sound support for Grand Cross Pinball (thanks to Raine and Jarek Burczynski for tips and info).

- 0.62: Added 'Flip Screen' and 2x 'Unused' dipswitches.

- 0.60: Fixed Grand Cross crashes upon startup.

- 0.58: David Graves added 'Grand Cross' (Excellent System 1994). TODO: EPROM? and Sound (M6295/M6585).

- 3rd February 2002: David Graves sent in a playable Grand Cross Pinball driver, although it lacks sound emulation.
