Gyruss and Time Pilot, the way they were meant to be played

I tried to replace drivers/asteroid.c with drivers/mame/asteroid.c in that diff file.  I'm still getting the can't find file to patch.  Is there something else I need to change?  Below is the original line from the diff and then the line I updated

Original
diff -Nrc srco/drivers/asteroid.c src/drivers/asteroid.c

Updated
diff -Nrc srco/drivers/mame/asteroid.c src/drivers/mame/asteroid.c

Minwah:
You could always just patch v0.105 and use this version only for these few games...

Edit: Actually, using HeadKaze's Mame Compiled, I got stuck compiling v0.105:


--- Quote ---Assembling src/windows/asmblit.asm...
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, nasmw -o obj/mame/windows/asmblit.o -f coff src/windows/asmblit.asm, ...) failed.
make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
mingw32-make: *** [obj/mame/windows/asmblit.o] Error 2

--- End quote ---

To get around this, I downloaded NASM from:

http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=6208&use_mirror=dfn&filename=nasm-2.03.01-win32.zip&7573627

Bung the downloaded files in your \mingw\bin folder, and rename 'nasm.exe' to nasmw.exe'.

...however I get some more errors at the end.  I had to disable the galaxian and pacman drivers for it to compile. So I only enabled drivers altered by the patch (and excluding these two):

in \src\mamedriv.c:

        DRIVER( asteroid )
   DRIVER( decocass ) - not sure what is altered
   DRIVER( galaga )
   DRIVER( gyruss )
   DRIVER( tempest ) - not sure what is altered
   DRIVER( timeplt )

Twin-X:
isn't there a more easy way to patch for example the latest version?

Someone would need to update the patch for the latest source code. I don't know, but this might not be straightforward since some very major things have changed since v0.105.

There was an arcade version of Track and Field that used a trackball.
Not sure if its a different ROM or a toggle since I always play the button version.

I don't get it....how would you use a trackball in TnF?


So Lew, are you getting acceptable scores now?
