Update to v100r02 release. byuu says: Sigh ... I'm really not a good person. I'm inherently selfish. My responsibility and obligation right now is to work on loki, and then on the Tengai Makyou Zero translation, and then on improving the Famicom emulation. And yet ... it's not what I really want to do. That shouldn't matter; I should work on my responsibilities first. Instead, I'm going to be a greedy, self-centered asshole, and work on what I really want to instead. I'm really sorry, guys. I'm sure this will make a few people happy, and probably upset even more people. I'm also making zero guarantees that this ever gets finished. As always, I wish I could keep these things secret, so if I fail / give up, I could just drop it with no shame. But I would have to cut everyone out of the WIP process completely to make it happen. So, here goes ... This WIP adds the initial skeleton for Sega Mega Drive / Genesis emulation. God help us. (minor note: apparently the new extension for Mega Drive games is .md, neat. That's what I chose for the folders too. I thought it was .smd, so that'll be fixed in icarus for the next WIP.) (aside: this is why I wanted to get v100 out. I didn't want this code in a skeleton state in v100's source. Nor did I want really broken emulation, which the first release is sure to be, tarring said release.) ... So, basically, I've been ruminating on the legacy I want to leave behind with higan. 3D systems are just plain out. I'm never going to support them. They're too complex for my abilities, and they would run too slowly with my design style. I'm not willing to compromise my design ideals. And I would never want to play a 3D game system at native 240p/480i resolution ... but 1080p+ upscaling is not accurate, so that's a conflict I want to avoid entirely. It's also never going to emulate computer systems (X68K, PC-98, FM-Towns, etc) because holy shit that would completely destroy me. It's also never going emulate arcade machines. So I think of higan as a collection of 2D emulators for consoles and handhelds. I've gone over every major 2D gaming system there is, looking for ones with games I actually care about and enjoy. And I basically have five of those systems supported already. Looking at the remaining list, I see only three systems left that I have any interest in whatsoever: PC-Engine, Master System, Mega Drive. Again, I'm not in any way committing to emulating any of these, but ... if I had all of those in higan, I think I'd be content to really, truly, finally stop writing more emulators for the rest of my life. And so I decided to tackle the most difficult system first. If I'm successful, the Z80 core should cover a lot of the work on the SMS. And the HuC6280 should land somewhere between the NES and SNES in terms of difficulty ... closer to the NES. The systems that just don't appeal to me at all, which I will never touch, include, but are not limited to: * Atari 2600/5200/7800 * Lynx * Jaguar * Vectrex * Colecovision * Commodore 64 * Neo-Geo * Neo-Geo Pocket / Color * Virtual Boy * Super A'can * 32X * CD-i * etc, etc, etc. And really, even if something were mildly interesting in there ... we have to stop. I can't scale infinitely. I'm already way past my limit, but I'm doing this anyway. Too many cores bloats everything and kills quality on everything. I don't want higan to become MESS v2. I don't know what I'll do about the Famicom Disk System, PC-Engine CD, and Mega CD. I don't think I'll be able to achieve 60fps emulating the Mega CD, even if I tried to. I don't know what's going to happen here with even the Mega Drive. Maybe I'll get driven crazy with the documentation and quit. Maybe it'll end up being too complicated and I'll quit. Maybe the emulation will end up way too slow and I'll give up. Maybe it'll take me seven years to get any games playable at all. Maybe Steve Snake, AamirM and Mike Pavone will pool money to hire a hitman to come after me. Who knows. But this is what I want to do, so ... here goes nothing.

Update to v101r12 release. byuu says: Changelog: - new md/bus/ module for bus reads/writes - abstracts byte/word accesses wherever possible (everything but RAM; forces all but I/O to word, I/O to byte) - holds the system RAM since that's technically not part of the CPU anyway - added md/controller and md/system/peripherals - added emulation of gamepads - added stub PSG audio output (silent) to cap the framerate at 60fps with audio sync enabled - fixed VSRAM reads for plane vertical scrolling (two bugs here: add instead of sub; interlave plane A/B) - mask nametable read offsets (can't exceed 8192-byte nametables apparently) - emulated VRAM/VSRAM/CRAM reads from VDP data port - fixed sprite width/height size calculations - added partial emulation of 40-tile per scanline limitation (enough to fix Sonic's title screen) - fixed off-by-one sprite range testing - fixed sprite tile indexing - Vblank happens at Y=224 with overscan disabled - unsure what happens when you toggle it between Y=224 and Y=240 ... probably bad things - fixed reading of address register for ADDA, CMPA, SUBA - fixed sign extension for MOVEA effect address reads - updated MOVEM to increment the read addresses (but not writeback) for (aN) mode With all of that out of the way, we finally have Sonic the Hedgehog (fully?) playable. I played to stage 1-2 and through the special stage, at least. EDIT: yeah, we probably need HIRQs for Labyrinth Zone. Not much else works, of course. Most games hang waiting on the Z80, and those that don't (like Altered Beast) are still royally screwed. Tons of features still missing; including all of the Z80/PSG/YM2612. A note on the perihperals this time around: the Mega Drive EXT port is basically identical to the regular controller ports. So unlike with the Famicom and Super Famicom, I'm inheriting the exension port from the controller class.

auto System::run() -> void {
Update to v101r04 release. byuu says: Changelog: - pulled the (u)intN type aliases into higan instead of leaving them in nall - added 68K LINEA, LINEF hooks for illegal instructions - filled the rest of the 68K lambda table with generic instance of ILLEGAL - completed the 68K disassembler effective addressing modes - still unsure whether I should use An to decode absolute addresses or not - pro: way easier to read where accesses are taking place - con: requires An to be valid; so as a disassembler it does a poor job - making it optional: too much work; ick - added I/O decoding for the VDP command-port registers - added skeleton timing to all five processor cores - output at 1280x480 (needed for mixed 256/320 widths; and to handle interlace modes) The VDP, PSG, Z80, YM2612 are all stepping one clock at a time and syncing; which is the pathological worst case for libco. But they also have no logic inside of them. With all the above, I'm averaging around 250fps with just the 68K core actually functional, and the VDP doing a dumb "draw white pixels" loop. Still way too early to tell how this emulator is going to perform. Also, the 320x240 mode of the Genesis means that we don't need an aspect correction ratio. But we do need to ensure the output window is a multiple 320x240 so that the scale values work correctly. I was hard-coding aspect correction to stretch the window an additional \*8/7. But that won't work anymore so ... the main higan window is now 640x480, 960x720, or 1280x960. Toggling aspect correction only changes the video width inside the window. It's a bit jarring ... the window is a lot wider, more black space now for most modes. But for now, it is what it is.

The systems that just don't appeal to me at all, which I will never touch, include, but are not limited to: * Atari 2600/5200/7800 * Lynx * Jaguar * Vectrex * Colecovision * Commodore 64 * Neo-Geo * Neo-Geo Pocket / Color * Virtual Boy * Super A'can * 32X * CD-i * etc, etc, etc. And really, even if something were mildly interesting in there ... we have to stop. I can't scale infinitely. I'm already way past my limit, but I'm doing this anyway. Too many cores bloats everything and kills quality on everything. I don't want higan to become MESS v2. I don't know what I'll do about the Famicom Disk System, PC-Engine CD, and Mega CD. I don't think I'll be able to achieve 60fps emulating the Mega CD, even if I tried to. I don't know what's going to happen here with even the Mega Drive. Maybe I'll get driven crazy with the documentation and quit. Maybe it'll end up being too complicated and I'll quit. Maybe the emulation will end up way too slow and I'll give up. Maybe it'll take me seven years to get any games playable at all. Maybe Steve Snake, AamirM and Mike Pavone will pool money to hire a hitman to come after me. Who knows. But this is what I want to do, so ... here goes nothing.

Update to v100r02 release. byuu says: Sigh ... I'm really not a good person. I'm inherently selfish. My responsibility and obligation right now is to work on loki, and then on the Tengai Makyou Zero translation, and then on improving the Famicom emulation. And yet ... it's not what I really want to do. That shouldn't matter; I should work on my responsibilities first. Instead, I'm going to be a greedy, self-centered asshole, and work on what I really want to instead. I'm really sorry, guys. I'm sure this will make a few people happy, and probably upset even more people. I'm also making zero guarantees that this ever gets finished. As always, I wish I could keep these things secret, so if I fail / give up, I could just drop it with no shame. But I would have to cut everyone out of the WIP process completely to make it happen. So, here goes ... This WIP adds the initial skeleton for Sega Mega Drive / Genesis emulation. God help us. (minor note: apparently the new extension for Mega Drive games is .md, neat. That's what I chose for the folders too. I thought it was .smd, so that'll be fixed in icarus for the next WIP.) (aside: this is why I wanted to get v100 out. I didn't want this code in a skeleton state in v100's source. Nor did I want really broken emulation, which the first release is sure to be, tarring said release.) ... So, basically, I've been ruminating on the legacy I want to leave behind with higan. 3D systems are just plain out. I'm never going to support them. They're too complex for my abilities, and they would run too slowly with my design style. I'm not willing to compromise my design ideals. And I would never want to play a 3D game system at native 240p/480i resolution ... but 1080p+ upscaling is not accurate, so that's a conflict I want to avoid entirely. It's also never going to emulate computer systems (X68K, PC-98, FM-Towns, etc) because holy shit that would completely destroy me. It's also never going emulate arcade machines. So I think of higan as a collection of 2D emulators for consoles and handhelds. I've gone over every major 2D gaming system there is, looking for ones with games I actually care about and enjoy. And I basically have five of those systems supported already. Looking at the remaining list, I see only three systems left that I have any interest in whatsoever: PC-Engine, Master System, Mega Drive. Again, I'm not in any way committing to emulating any of these, but ... if I had all of those in higan, I think I'd be content to really, truly, finally stop writing more emulators for the rest of my life.

Update to v100r14 release. byuu says: (Windows: compile with -fpermissive to silence an annoying error. I'll fix it in the next WIP.) I completely replaced the time management system in higan and overhauled the scheduler. Before, processor threads would have "int64 clock"; and there would be a 1:1 relationship between two threads. When thread A ran for X cycles, it'd subtract X * B.Frequency from clock; and when thread B ran for Y cycles, it'd add Y * A.Frequency from clock. This worked well and allowed perfect precision; but it doesn't work when you have more complicated relationships: eg the 68K can sync to the Z80 and PSG; the Z80 to the 68K and PSG; so the PSG needs two counters. The new system instead uses a "uint64 clock" variable that represents time in attoseconds. Every time the scheduler exits, it subtracts the smallest clock count from all threads, to prevent an overflow scenario. The only real downside is that rounding errors mean that roughly every 20 minutes, we have a rounding error of one clock cycle (one 20,000,000th of a second.) However, this only applies to systems with multiple oscillators, like the SNES. And when you're in that situation ... there's no such thing as a perfect oscillator anyway. A real SNES will be thousands of times less out of spec than 1hz per 20 minutes. The advantages are pretty immense. First, we obviously can now support more complex relationships between threads. Second, we can build a much more abstracted scheduler. All of libco is now abstracted away completely, which may permit a state-machine / coroutine version of Thread in the future. We've basically gone from this: auto SMP::step(uint clocks) -> void { clock += clocks * (uint64)cpu.frequency; dsp.clock -= clocks; if(dsp.clock < 0 && !scheduler.synchronizing()) co_switch(dsp.thread); if(clock >= 0 && !scheduler.synchronizing()) co_switch(cpu.thread); } To this: auto SMP::step(uint clocks) -> void { Thread::step(clocks); synchronize(dsp); synchronize(cpu); } As you can see, we don't have to do multiple clock adjustments anymore. This is a huge win for the SNES CPU that had to update the SMP, DSP, all peripherals and all coprocessors. Likewise, we don't have to synchronize all coprocessors when one runs, now we can just synchronize the active one to the CPU. Third, when changing the frequencies of threads (think SGB speed setting modes, GBC double-speed mode, etc), it no longer causes the "int64 clock" value to be erroneous. Fourth, this results in a fairly decent speedup, mostly across the board. Aside from the GBA being mostly a wash (for unknown reasons), it's about an 8% - 12% speedup in every other emulation core. Now, all of this said ... this was an unbelievably massive change, so ... you know what that means >_> If anyone can help test all types of SNES coprocessors, and some other system games, it'd be appreciated. ---- Lastly, we have a bitchin' new about screen. It unfortunately adds ~200KiB onto the binary size, because the PNG->C++ header file transformation doesn't compress very well, and I want to keep the original resource files in with the higan archive. I might try some things to work around this file size increase in the future, but for now ... yeah, slightly larger archive sizes, sorry. The logo's a bit busted on Windows (the Label control's background transparency and alignment settings aren't working), but works well on GTK. I'll have to fix Windows before the next official release. For now, look on my Twitter feed if you want to see what it's supposed to look like. ---- EDIT: forgot about ICD2::Enter. It's doing some weird inverse run-to-save thing that I need to implement support for somehow. So, save states on the SGB core probably won't work with this WIP.

Update to v101r12 release. byuu says: Changelog: - new md/bus/ module for bus reads/writes - abstracts byte/word accesses wherever possible (everything but RAM; forces all but I/O to word, I/O to byte) - holds the system RAM since that's technically not part of the CPU anyway - added md/controller and md/system/peripherals - added emulation of gamepads - added stub PSG audio output (silent) to cap the framerate at 60fps with audio sync enabled - fixed VSRAM reads for plane vertical scrolling (two bugs here: add instead of sub; interlave plane A/B) - mask nametable read offsets (can't exceed 8192-byte nametables apparently) - emulated VRAM/VSRAM/CRAM reads from VDP data port - fixed sprite width/height size calculations - added partial emulation of 40-tile per scanline limitation (enough to fix Sonic's title screen) - fixed off-by-one sprite range testing - fixed sprite tile indexing - Vblank happens at Y=224 with overscan disabled - unsure what happens when you toggle it between Y=224 and Y=240 ... probably bad things - fixed reading of address register for ADDA, CMPA, SUBA - fixed sign extension for MOVEA effect address reads - updated MOVEM to increment the read addresses (but not writeback) for (aN) mode With all of that out of the way, we finally have Sonic the Hedgehog (fully?) playable. I played to stage 1-2 and through the special stage, at least. EDIT: yeah, we probably need HIRQs for Labyrinth Zone. Not much else works, of course. Most games hang waiting on the Z80, and those that don't (like Altered Beast) are still royally screwed. Tons of features still missing; including all of the Z80/PSG/YM2612. A note on the perihperals this time around: the Mega Drive EXT port is basically identical to the regular controller ports. So unlike with the Famicom and Super Famicom, I'm inheriting the exension port from the controller class.
