is related to the currently running ROM. If enabled (the default and current
behaviour), state files that do not match the currently loaded ROM will not
be loaded. Otherwise, the state file will attempt to load. Note that in the
latter case, this will probably cause 'bad things' to happen. It's mostly
for developers who are constantly recompiling a ROM, and wish to use a
previously created state file even when the ROM MD5 changes.

controlled by 'tiafloat', which has now been removed. Now, all
undriven pins take on the last value on the databus. This fixes a bug
in those reads where bit 6 or bits 6 & 7 are also undriven (previously,
these bits would always be zero, and only bits 0-5 were from lastdatabus.
Added new commandline argument 'tiadriven', which defaults to false.
In this default case, relevant bits take on values from the databus.
If true, relevant bits still take on databus values, but some are
randomly driven high as well. This helps to expose bugs when
developers assume the values for undriven/floating bits.
Added 'uimessages' commandline argument and associated UI item. When
disabled, messages which are normally shown in-game are disabled.
Certain messages which indicate a serious error are still shown, however.

of a boolean. It now accepts value '-1' to mean 'completely disable
fullscreen mode switching'. This was added because some systems with
buggy video drivers can't handle fullscreen mode, and accidentally
trying to do so can lock up such a system.
Fixed fullscreen/windowed switching wrt grabbing the mouse. Sometimes
switching from fullscreen to windowed mode had the cursor trapped in
the window, even if grabmouse was disabled.

InputDialog/Virtual Devs to allow all 4 directions to be pressed
simultaneously on a virtual joystick. This support was always present
for 'Bumper Bash', but it can now be enabled/disabled for any ROM.
Note that the setting is ignored for 'Bumper Bash', as that ROM
requires it to be always turned on.
Fixed debugger rewind issue from last commit; the rewind list wasn't
being properly reset when entering the debugger or selecting a new ROM.

more sense, as it isn't a double-negative any more).
Made PropSet::getMD5() more explicitly return a boolean indicating if the
properties were found, vs. having a CartName of 'Untitled' indicating that
it wasn't found.
The file being used by Stella in multi-file ZIP archive is now shown in
the window title, vs. showing the name of the ZIP file itself. Related
to this, a file with an extension of 'rom' is now valid inside ZIP
archives.
Updated documentation for bankswitch types, more clearly indicating which
ones support autodetection and the debugger.

start with game 0 (as if it's been unplugged for some time), but reloading
the ROM with Ctrl-r will cycle through each game (emulating a power-cycle).
Fixed crash when specifying a directory on the commandline; only files
are supported as ROMs.

Randomized value placed in accumulator after exiting the SC BIOS for
SuperCharger ROMs. This should fix issues in Dragonstomper, where it
seems the randomization of its items depending on a random accumulator
value.
Re-added '-fastscbios', and when enabled, it completely skips
the emulation of SC BIOS progress bars (previously, the bars were
simply sped up). This defaults to off, for more authentic emulation.
Related to this, added a UI item in VideoDialog to enable/disable it.
Thanks to Eckhard Stolberg for advice on the SCROM, and how to
modify it.

the ones that bankswitch in RAM, since I don't know what should happen there.
Added 'exitlauncher' commandline argument, which specifies the functionality
of the 'Exit to launcher' action; should exiting a game actually go back to
the launcher, or exit the program entirely. Also added a UI item in UIDialog
for this.
Reworked the fullscreen/windowed handling in FrameBuffer, simplifying the
logic for determining whether the SDL surface is actually in fullscreen
or not.

General updates to the documentation for people I forgot to include in
previous releases. Also added websites where applicable.
Update AboutDialog to be more current, showing only those members
currently active in the Stella project and the other teams that have
contributed code. For more specifics, you should now see the manual.
Basically consolidated all contribution info into one document, so it
has to be kept up-to-date in only one place.

Added CRT simulation as described by Ian Bogost in the AtariAge thread
'CRT simulation for Stella. This is just the first pass, but things
are working nicely so far (for those systems that can support it). It
requires at least OpenGL 2.0 with GLSL (GL Shading language). Added
the commandline arugments 'tv_tex', 'tv_bleed', 'tv_noise' and 'tv_phos'
used to set these various effects, as well as the ability to set them
within the Video Settings dialog. More documentation is forthcoming
on this.
All bankswitch modes that use SC RAM now act correctly when reading
from the write port (the RAM is erased).
Patching ROMs with bankswitch type 0840, SB, UA and X07 is now working.
Went through all the bankswitch classes and converted multiplication/
division to shift operations whenever possible. It's a
micro-optimization, but what the heck; every little bit of speed counts.
