News from Jotego arcade cores

- JTWC core (Tehkan World Cup, Grid Iron) has entered stable status and is now promoted public for MiST and Sidi.

- JTFROUND, has received the improvements made to the 00788X chipset for JTTWIN16. An important difference is that sprites were visible one-frame ahead of time in the previous version.

Enjoy

News from Jotego arcade cores :

- Better low pass filter implementation, with more precise cut-off frequency, attenuation and much less quantization noise. This is a side effect of the work done on implementing the equalizer for JTFLSTORY (an incoming release).

That affect almost all arcade cores from Jotego.
