-Made it so that each new search zeroes out the change count.
--This prevents all non-zero items from starting out with 1 change.
--A similar fix needs to be applied to Ram Watch (Filing issue...).
-Allowed changing data size, endian, and unaligned address setting in the middle of the search and maintaining valid values, fixing Issue 72 (The last open Ram Search issue until my "Difference" idea is hopefully accepted).
--Unlike my previous model, this does not align unaligned addresses; all it does is change the size / endian and PeekAddress.
--It does remove unaligned addresses, however, if you have it set to.
--This version converts System Bus instantly whereas the previous version stopped responding.
-The number of watches in Ram Watch is now updated in UpdateValues instead of LoadWatchFile, meaning that it's updated every time items are added / removed.
--Also noticed that separators count as watches. Filter these out and exclude them from the count, adelikat?
-UGLY REDUNDANT UGLY REDUNT UGLY REDUNDANT (Especially for DoSpecificValue() and DoPreviousValue()).
-I tested every possible scenario for the aforementioned abomination and it seems to work.
-I applied SignedVal and UnsignedVal to the comparison functions for sorting, the ToString functions, and specific value and previous weedings. I don't think there's any other places where this is an issue.
TODO:
-Try my mid-search data size conversion code again.
--Use it on System Bus and see if it is as slow (Not Responding) as it was previously now that 3 lists have been removed.
--Try allowing unaligned addresses and see if that makes any difference.
-Convince adelikat that moving "Prev value as change" to its own data item and column ("Differences" seems more appropriate) is the only sensible way.
-Maybe move all of the previous definitions from Ram Search to Ram Watch (With the exception of "Since last Search" of course.
-Perhaps allow the viewing / hiding of more columns on Ram Watch / Search.
--Well, data size and endian don't, but they will once these changes take effect in the middle of a search.
-Previous can now be defined as the last change, fixing the enhancement shown in Issue 73 (Ram Watch equivalent might come later).
-Fixed unsigned sort.
--prevList, undoPrevList, and redoPrevList removed. All of the definitions for previous are now stored in separate data items.
---Should yield small speed increases.
---Makes it easier to port these definitions to Ram Watch eventually.
---Auto-aligns data, making it impossible for issues, such as the original values not aligning with the correct values because the prevList wasn't recreated, impossible.
---Makes it possible for the field to automatically update when the definition is changed (Implemented).
--Value/PrevToString() now use the same code.
--Reduces redundancy.
---This was a problem as PrevToString wasn't taking into account the data type, whereas Value was. This is now fixed.
-Watch now stores the data for the "last change" previous definition. Now I just have to set up the option in the GUI.
2. Fixed issues with the light blue current frame pointer in tastudio
3. Removed a totally useless index that was being kept seperately in the movie log.
4. Moved the tastudio update after the check to see if the rest of the saved state list is valid.
5. Changed some function/variable names related to the movie log for clarity.
1. Added a list of save states to the movie log.
2. Added corresponding support functions for the save states.
3. Added double click to the list view to load a previous frame.
4. Added a context menu to the list view with insert and delete.
5. Fixed some issues with the green zone of valid state history.
6. Fixed an input bug that I had unwittingly created, as well as issues with the nes log format.
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.
--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.
Moves calls to AVIStreamWrite() to a separate worker thread. They are where all of the cpu time for video compression is used, so can give a decent speedup. Could conceivably go slower on pathetic single core machines due to synchronization and copy overhead.
