0.37 BETA 14


These drivers have improved GRAPHICS:
-------------------------------------

- Fixed sprite priorities in Hachoo. [Nicola Salmoria]


These drivers have improved SOUND:
----------------------------------

- Sound in Looping. [Mathis Rosenhauer]

- Improved speech in Double Dribble. [Tatsuyuki Satoh]

- Improved subwoofer sounds in ninjaw and darius2d. [Andrea Mazzoleni]


Changes to the main program:
----------------------------

- [DOS] The keyboard special handling introduced in the previous beta, which
  makes it easier to register two- or three-button presses, is now optional.
  By default it's off; to turn it on, use -steadykey. [Mike Coates]

- Changed 4-way emulation on a 8-way joystick to "sticky" mode. This makes
  Lady Bug and other 4-way games more playable.
