adelikat be93e78dd5 Intellivision - add .int files to the open file dialog in developer builds 2016-11-13 08:25:19 -06:00
zeromus 595a207c97 add new field to gamedb to specify which core should be used.
allow it to be 'neshawk' or 'quicknes'.

this should only be employed by end-users; we won't make those choices in the gamedb officially.

the quicknes blacklist is still implemented separately.

yeah, that's a lot of prioritization levels.

(but changed the format of the string to be more generally useful, and changed it to dll/custombuild.txt)

Meerkov 9eafac83d4 Improve Absolute Zero Mode by 15-30%
Short-circuits out of the Render function in the main program loop.

With an NES game running at 8500 FPS before, this brings it to 9700 FPS.

With no game loaded, running at 45k FPS, this brings it to 60k FPS.

Meerkov 151c88feb8 Removes busy-wait
This sleep doesn't appear to be needed. It's just busy waiting.

We save CPU cycles by not doing this.

Meerkov 1b8d32e82f Refactor the FPS Counter to it's own function
1) Takes the block of code that calculates the string to print and gives
it it's own function.

2) Stores a static display variable. Fixes incorrect FPS while fast
forwarding as a result.

3) Reduces updates per second to 12 from 16.

Meerkov 68a362c8ff Fix subtle bug in renderSound
Bug as follows:

renderSound was true when any of the following:
_currAviWriter!=null&&_currAviWriter.UsesAudio
!IsTurboing || _currAviWriter!=null

So, if _currAviWriter!=null, it didn't matter if it has the UsesAudio
flag on or not.

Meerkov 4bd6608940 Allow Fast Forward Volume to be Louder than Normal Volume
Allows FF Volume to override the normal volume, instead of multiplying
it (which could only decrease the volume).

Meerkov 4aa64b1f34 Refactor atten variable checks
Cleans up volume checks, makes it a bit easier to follow by removing
negations.

Meerkov d3547b15d4 Fix bug with Mute Frame Advance
It will actually mute when you hold the Frame Advance button.

Previously, the setting did nothing.

Meerkov 49d7f79ce5 Reduce redundant attenuation code in main loop
This simplifies the code for setting the attenuation by setting it to 0,
and moving all the checks that change it next to each other.

Meerkov cd46188efe Remove Unused Variable
UpdateFrame can never be true, so all of this code is pointless.

Meerkov 91c5eda526 Update FPS Counter
Changes the FPS counter to fade.

Why: FPS counter has a bug where it doesn't normalize the frame count to
the time passed since last update. This can result in an error of 1 FPS.
When running at 30 FPS, that is ~3.33%. The lower the FPS, the worse
this error grows.

1) Adds a parameter for how often to update the FPS (e.g. 16 times per
second).

2) Normalizes to the number of seconds passed since last update (fixing
the bug).

3) Adds a smoothing parameter (e.g. weigh the most recent interval at
8x, and normalize with current displayed date). This results in less
jumpy FPS because it takes into account historical data.

Hathor86 7fb0eaf337 Add Save/Load state methods and events to ApiHawk
Now, ApiHawk can save and load name state. There are also events that
you can attached too. Furthermore, BeforeQuickSave/BeforeQuickLoad
events occurs just after user pressed button. We can react to this and
even override behavior.
Finally, I just allow .bat to take xml files (for ApiHawk doc)

PS: Yeah, I'm still alive

zeromus 204ff2365f I think the 1px padding hack (enabled by default) should have only applied to opengl (it was created when we only had opengl and it's meant to address a problem i think is opengl only). May possibly cause flickering when going fullscreen, if I'm wrong. 2016-03-24 14:47:18 -05:00
Hathor86 c0f7219b06 Contextualization of external tools + Basic of ClientApi
We can now specify a context for external tools. Global, specific for a
type of emulator / system or specific for a game (If not specified, a
tool is global).  It should avoid loading something unwanted.

Also add ClientApi, a static class that can interract with EmuHawk
window (SetPadding is the only thing implemented currently).
