1. Hooked up Fast Forward, Fast Forward to End
2. Made a placeholder for Turbo Fast Forward.
3. Fixed rewind to not stomp on the previous frame with new input.
4. Fixed rewind to stop at the beginning of the movie instead of freaking out.
5. TAStudio now shows data from the most recent frame.
6. CommitFrame is called even if not recording so played back frames also show up in TAStudio.
7. Play mode only stops at the end of the movie if you tell it to. Your emulator normally continues to play with no input after the end of the movie.
8. TAStudio is now updated after a rewind (even though the rewind doesn't play a new frame).
9. Split the tools update into before and after updates.
10. Going into read-only mode adjusts the movie mode.
11. Implemented New, Open, Save, and Save As for TAStudio.
12. Fixed an issue where frames past the end of the log would default to the input from the last frame of the log.
13. Fixed a problem where you couldn't rewind to frame 0.
14. Fixed a scrolling issue in the TAStudio list view.
15. Fixed an issue with the TAStudio virtual NES controller not matching up with the log.
16. Fixed an issue where the NES reset button would get held in when rewinding.
17. Added/Modified a couple of button graphics.
--It's going to be based heavily based on Imran Nazar's "GameBoy Emulation in Javascript" series. I figure it's better that I learn by emulation (Har har) instead of spending more time reading references than programming.
--Finished the memory management (Part 2).
--adelikat:
---Do I implement the required functions for IEmulator and IVideoProvider now, do it later, or is this something you or zeromus would do (Like for the API)?
---At what point should we have the emulator actually use this core instead of zeromus'? As terrible as he says his is, this one doesn't do anything yet. Still, I need some mechanism of testing it.
-Made it so that the log only opens when logging is true and that the file closes upon destruction.
--Still, BizHawk says that it can't open the file again when I load a game again. This is because the emulator class gets recreated without deleting the original one every time you load a game.
---adelikat convinced me not to care about this.
-Fixed the initial state of the GB CPU:
--It was setting AF to 0x01, not A. This is effectively setting F to 0x01, which gets overwritten later anyway.
--Two BIOS flags were used in different places; merging them gets the PC to start in the right place.
-By fixing the initial state, most of the log now matches up.
--The only differences are the VBA has some repeated records (Where all of the registers, including PC, are the same as the previous record) whereas BizHawk doesn't.
--This very well might be an issue with how I'm logging it
--Alternatively, it could be some kind of lagging mechanism.
--I'm not sure which version is even correct...VBA is far from accruate.
--All in all, considering that the vast majority of the diff comes out as the same, I think I fixed the biggest CPU related bug. Will investigate more later.
--Gets worse as the scale increases.
--For x3, the box doesn't increase size, but the box still changes position. I think there might be a difference between the TargetZoomFactor and the actual screen size, so perhaps we should tie this to something else.
-Working on very small optimizations to the NES PPU with CorruptedSyntax...this is more fun, so we'll do this first.
--Eliminated an entire loop.
--Branched to two loops instead of branching for every iteration in one loop.
--Got rid of some redundant instructions using temporary variables.
--This may be completely premature, but I seem to have gained a few FPS from doing this. For me, I get 38-39 FPS where I'd previously get 33-34.
