Rebuilt VAntAGE 1.12

[Hornpipe2]

The official VAntAGE 1.12 binary kept crashing whenever I would attempt to play games needing the Galaxian driver, so I figured I'd try a recompile and see if the problem went away.  I ended up needing a djgpp / nasm build environment, some libraries, and a couple source changes.

The recompile fixed the XP crash.  Unfortunately, now VAntAGE crashes when it can't find a config file.  (It worked before I ran UPX on it - I think the static array got stomped and now it needs a "set defaults" method in readcfgfile() in fileio.c... but I digress)  Anyway I put a default vantage.cfg file in the release, so it should still run.

A new binary package: http://kennedy.greg.googlepages.com/vant112b.zip

A new source package: http://kennedy.greg.googlepages.com/vant112s.zip

I can step people through setting up a build env. in Windows if anyone wants to work on the source.  I may take a crack at adding more games and fixing the cfg file problem, but no promises...

EDIT:  Hmm.  Galaxian still crashes under DOSBox with cwsdpmi r5.  More investigation is needed.

I'm currently debating adding Vantage to an emulator package i'm working on for old pc's running windows 98.
The reason i'm debating is that all of the games run just as fast on Mame on my 233mhz pc. The way i'm going
to decide depends on which romset can be rebuilt, Mame 0.36 or Vantage.

It would be cool if you can set up the controls for all games globally and not one by one.
Also I don't know if the current roms work with the emulator. Maybe update the drivers if it's possible?
If you add more games and it still works under 98 i'll happily test it for you.
