Changelog:
- paths.cfg work completed
- save states/archives and cheat files for multi-slot games are more
intelligent now
For paths.cfg, there are three types of entries. Each have different
special prefixes.
Folder paths: sfc, bs, st, gb, filter, shader
By default, bsnes will remember the last path you loaded a file of said
type from. It will be prefixed with "recent/" in the file. Specify an
explicit hard-coded path to override this.
BIOS paths: satellaviewBios, sufamiTurboBios, superGameBoyBios
Remembers an explicit hard-coded path to the BIOS you selected last.
I was thinking that a nice feature would be for the "Load Special"
windows to pop open the slot A load dialog if a BIOS was selected.
Select a game from this popup and it loads directly, cancel it to get
the regular window to override the BIOS.
Save paths: srm, rtc, bsa, bst, cht, log
Paths to write various files that the emulator generates. Note: srm
groups bsp, bss and sav for now. Was being lazy.
There are four special prefixes for these:
"base/" -- gets replaced with the executable path
"user/" -- gets replaced with the same folder where bsnes.cfg goes
(%APPDATA%/bsnes or ~/.config/bsnes) -- good for hiding
files
"./" -- gets replaced with the current ROM path
"../" -- gets replaced with the folder above the current ROM path
If you want to go up two folders or more, then use a hard-coded path. If
that's not good enough, kill yourself because God hates you.

Update to v076r05 release.

Changelog:
- QMenu::setVisible() does nothing, have to use
QMenu::menuAction::setVisible()
- improved path system, especially for ST games (states will be
/path/to/slotA+notdir(slotB).ext, saves are per-game and per-path)
- paths are now valid when you load just the BS-X/ST/SGB BIOSes with no
carts inserted; maybe useful for BS-X I guess
- removed video filter and pixel shader code from video settings dialog
- added Settings->Video Filter and Settings->Video Shader menu lists
- fixed the SaI family of filters in lores-mode only; although I don't
really know how or why the change fixed them, the code is too vague
The menu list for the video filters and shaders are populated from
either base/filters and base/shaders, or user/.config/bsnes/filters and
user/.config/bsnes/shaders. It tries the first, and if it does not find
anything it tries the second, just like the configuration files.
That meant doing away with multiple folders for the shaders, so now the
shaders have a suffix to indicate what driver uses them, eg
"Curvature.OpenGL.shader" and "Sepia.Direct3D.shader" -- probably nicer
to use GLSL/HLSL, but using the driver name lets me sub in the currently
loaded video driver with no special casing. So the filter if you have eg
OpenGL loaded is "*.OpenGL.shader"; and for SDL you get "*.SDL.shader",
which will obviously not be there as the non-GL-based SDL driver doesn't
support shaders.
If there are no filters or no shaders available, the menu options do not
show up. The lists are not radio items with active item ticked states
just yet, but they will be.

Update to v074r10 release.
byuu says:
Major WIP, countless changes. I really went to town on cleaning up the
source today with all kinds of new ideas. I'll post the ones I remember,
use diff -ru to get the rest.
What I like the most is my new within template:
template<unsigned lo, unsigned hi>
alwaysinline bool within(unsigned addr) {
static const unsigned mask = ~(hi ^ lo);
return (addr & mask) == lo;
}
Before, you would see code like this:
if((addr & 0xe0e000) == 0x206000) { //$20-3f:6000-7fff
The comment is basically necessary, and you have to trust that the mask
is right, or do the math yourself.
Now, it looks like this:
if(within<0x20, 0x3f, 0x6000, 0x7fff>(addr)) {
That's the same as within<0x206000, 0x3f7fff>, I just made an
SNES-variant to more closely simulate my XML mapping style:
20-3f:6000-7fff.
Now obviously this has limitations, it only works in base-2 and it can't
manage some tricky edge cases like (addr & 0x408000) == 0x008000 for
00-3f|80-bf:8000-ffff. But for the most part, I'll be using this where
I can. The Game Boy is fully ported over to it (via the MBCs), but the
SNES only has the BS-X town cartridge moved over so far. SuperFX and
SA-1 at the very least could benefit.
Next up, since the memory map is now static, there's really no reason to
remap the entire thing at power-on and reset. So it is now set up at
cartridge load and that's it. I moved the CPU/PPU/WRAM mapping out of
memory.cpp and into their respective processors. A bit of duplication
only because there are multiple processor cores for the different
profiles, but I'm not worried about that. This is also going to be
necessary to fix the debugger.
Next, Coprocessor::enable() actually does what I initially intended it
to now: it is called once to turn a chip on after cartridge load. It's
not called on power cycle anymore. This should help fix power-cycle on
my serial simulation code, and was needed to map the bus exactly one
time. Although most stuff is mapped through XML, some chips still need
some manual hooks for monitoring and such (eg S-DD1.)
Next, I've started killing off memory::, it was initially an
over-reaction to the question of where to put APURAM (in the SMP or
DSP?). The idea was to have this namespace that contained all memory for
everything. But it was very annoying and tedious, and various chips
ignored the convention anyway like ST-0011 RAM, which couldn't work
anyway since it is natively uint16 and not uint8. Cx4 will need 24-bit
RAM eventually, too. There's 8->24-bit functions in there now, because
the HLE code is hideous.
So far, all the cartridge.cpp memory:: types have been destroyed.
memory::cartrom, memory::cartram become cartridge.rom and cartridge.ram.
memory::cartrtc was moved into the SRTC and SPC7110 classes directly.
memory::bsxflash was moved into BSXFlash. memory::bsxram and
memory::bsxpram were moved into BSXCartridge (the town cartridge).
memory::st[AB](rom|ram) were moved into a new area,
snes/chip/sufamiturbo. The snes/chip moniker really doesn't work so
well, since it also has base units, and the serial communications stuff
which is through the controller port, but oh well, now it also has the
base structure for the Sufami Turbo cartridge too. So now we have
sufamiturbo.slotA.rom, sufamiturbo.slotB.ram, etc.
Next, the ST-0010/ST-0011 actually save the data RAM to disk. This
wasn't at all compatible with my old system, and I didn't want to keep
adding memory types to check inside the main UI cartridge RAM loading
and saving routines.
So I built a NonVolatileRAM vector inside SNES::Cartridge, and any chip
that has memory it wants to save and load from disk can append onto it
: data, size, id ("srm", "rtc", "nec", etc) and slot (0 = cartridge,
1 = slot A, 2 = slot B)
To load and save memory, we just do a simple: foreach(memory,
SNES::cartridge.nvram) load/saveMemory(memory).
As a result, you can now keep your save games in F1 Race of Champions II
and Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shougi. Technically I think Metal Combat
should work this way as well, having the RAM being part of the chip
itself, but for now that chip just writes directly into cartridge.ram,
so it also technically saves to disk for now.
To avoid a potential conflict with a manipulated memory map, BS-X SRAM
and PSRAM are now .bss and .bsp, and not .srm and .psr. Honestly I don't
like .srm as an extension either, but it doesn't bother me enough to
break save RAM compatibility with other emulators, so don't worry about
that changing.
I finally killed off MappedRAM initializing size to ~0 (-1U). A size of
zero means there is no memory there just the same. This was an old
holdover for handling MMIO mapping, if I recall correctly. Something
about a size of zero on MMIO-Memory objects causing it to wrap the
address, so ~0 would let it map direct addresses ... or something.
Whatever, that's not needed at all anymore.
BSXBase becomes BSXSatellaview, and I've defaulted the device to being
attached since it won't affect non-BSX games anyway. Eventually the GUI
needs to make that an option. BSXCart becomes BSXCartridge. BSXFlash
remains unchanged.
I probably need to make Coprocessor::disable() functions now to free up
memory on unload, but it shouldn't hurt anything the way it is.
libsnes is most definitely broken to all hell and back now, and the
debugger is still shot. I suppose we'll need some tricky code to work
with the old ID system, and we'll need to add some more IDs for the new
memory types.

Update to v088r11 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- phoenix has added Window::setModal(bool modal = true);
- file dialog is now modal. This allows emulation cores to request data
and get it immediately before continuing the loading process
- save data is hooked up for most systems, still need to handle
subsystem slot saves (Sufami Turbo, basically.)
- toggle fullscreen key binding added (Alt+Enter for now. I think F11 is
probably better though, Enter is often mapped to game start button.)
- video scaling is in (center, scale, stretch), works the same in
windowed and fullscreen mode (stretch hides resize window option), all
in the settings menu now
- enough structure to map all saved paths for the browser and to load
BS-X slotted carts, BS-X carts, single Sufami Turbo carts
Caveats / Missing:
- Super Game Boy input doesn't work yet (due to change in callback
binding)
- doesn't load secondary Sufami Turbo slot yet
- BS-X BIOS isn't show the data pack games to load for some reason (ugh,
I hate the shit out of debugging BS-X stuff ...)
- need mute audio, sync audio+video toggle, save/load state menu and
quick keys, XML mapping information window
- need cheat editor and cheat database
- need state manager
- need to sort subsystems below main systems in load menu (basically
just see if media.slot.size() > 0)
- need video shaders (will probably leave off filters for the time being
... due to that 24/30-bit thing)
- need video adjustments (contrast etc, overscan masks)
- need audio adjustments (frequency, latency, resampler, volume,
per-system frequency)
- need driver selection and input focus policy (driver crash detection
would be nice too)
- need NSS DIP switch settings (that one will be really fun)
- need to save and load window geometry settings
- need to hook up controller selection (won't be fun), create a map to
hide controllers with no inputs to reassign

All that's left now is to work some sort of database mapping system in,
so I can start dumping carts en masse.
The NES changes that FitzRoy asked for are mostly in as well.
Also, part of the reason I haven't released a WIP ... but fuck it, I'm
not going to wait forever to post a new WIP.
I've added a skeleton driver to emulate Campus Challenge '92 and
Powerfest '94. There's no actual emulation, except for the stuff I can
glean from looking at the pictures of the board. It has a DSP-1 (so
SR/DR registers), four ROMs that map in and out, RAM, etc.
I've also added preliminary mapping to upload high scores to a website,
but obviously I need the ROMs first.

You guys are going to hate the hell out of this one. It's twenty hours
of non-stop work, no exaggeration at all. Started at 4AM, just wrapped
up now at 8PM.
I rewrote the entire memory subsystem.
Old system:
65536 pages that map 256 bytes each
Mapping a new page overwrites old page
Granularity capped at 256 bytes minimum, requiring ST-001x to map
60:0000-00ff instead of 60:0000,0001
Classes inherit from MMIO and Memory, forcing only one mappable function
per class, and fixed names
MMIO sub-mapper inside memory: 00-3f:2000-5fff for one-byte granularity
Can dynamically change the map at run-time, MMC register settings
perform dynamic remapping
New system:
XML mapping is still based around banklo-bankhi:addrlo-addrhi, as that
shapes almost everything on the SNES very well
Internally, 2048 pages that map 8192 bytes each
Pages are vectors, scans O(n) from last to first (O(log n) would not
help, n is never > 3)
Can multi-cast writes, but not reads [for the obvious reason of: which
read do you return?]
Can map reads and writes separately
Granularity of one for entire 24-bit address range, no need for MMIO
- whatever is in XML is exactly what you get
Read/Write tables bind function callbacks, so I can have any number of
functions with any names from any classes with no inheritance (no
more uPD7725DR, uPD7725SR helpers, etc)
Less memory usage overall due to less tables [ I tried 16 million tables
and it used 2GB of RAM >_o ]
Cannot dynamically change the map at run-time, MMC read/write functions
perform address translation [worse average case speed, better worst
case speed]
Now the hate me part, functors can't beat virtual functions for speed.
There are speed penalties involved:
-4.5% on average games
-11% on SuperFX games (SFX has its own bus)
-15% on SA-1 games (SA-1 has two buses)
Of course the two that need the speed the most get the biggest hits.
I'm afraid there's really not a lot of wiggle room to boost speed back
up.
I suppose one bright spot is that we can much more easily try out
entirely new mapping systems now, since the dynamic portions have been
eliminated.

Update to higan v091r14 and ananke v00r03 releases.
byuu says:
higan changelog:
- generates title displayed in emulator window by asking the core
- core builds title solely from "information/title" ... if it's not
there, you don't get a title at all
- sub-system load menu is gone ... since there are multiple revisions of
the SGB, this never really worked well anyway
- to load an SGB, BS-X or ST cartridge, load the base cartridge first
- "File->Load Game" moved to "Load->Import Game" ... may cause a bit of
confusion to new users, but I don't like having a single-item menu,
we'll just have to explain it to new users
- browser window redone to look like ananke
- home button here goes to ~/Emulation rather than just ~ like ananke,
since this is the home of game folders
- game folder icon is now the executable icon for the Tango theme
(orange diamond), meant to represent a complete game rather than
a game file or archive
ananke changelog:
- outputs GBC games to "Game Boy Color/" instead of "Game Boy/"
- adds the file basename to "information/title"
Known issues:
- using ananke to load a GB game trips the Super Famicom SGB mode and
fails (need to make the full-path auto-detection ignore non-bootable
systems)
- need to dump and test some BS-X media before releasing
- ananke lacks BS-X Satellaview cartridge support
- v092 isn't going to let you retarget the ananke/higan game folder path
of ~/Emulation, you will have to wait for a future version if that
bothers you so greatly
[Later, after the v092 release, byuu posted this additional changelog:
- kill laevateinn
- add title()
- add bootable, remove load
- combine file, library
- combine [][][] paths
- fix SFC subtype handling XML->BML
- update file browser to use buttons
- update file browser keyboard handling
- update system XML->BML
- fix sufami turbo hashing
- remove Cartridge::manifest

Update to v092 release.
In the release thread, byuu says:
The first official release of higan has been posted. higan is the
new name for bsnes, and it continues with the latter's version
numbering.
Note that as of now, bsnes still exists. It's a module distributed
inside of higan. bsnes is now specific to my SNES emulator.
Due to last minute changes to the emulator interface, and missing
support in ananke, I wasn't able to include Cydrak's Nintendo DS
emulator dasShiny in this build, but I hope to do so in the next
release.

In the v091 WIP thread, byuu says:
r15->r16:
- BS-X MaskROM handling (partial ... need to split bsx/flash away
from sfc/chip, restructure code - it requires tagging the base
cart markup for now, but it needs to parse the slotted cart
markup)
- phoenixflags / phoenixlink += -m32
- nall/sort stability
- if(input.poll(scancode[activeScancode]) == false) return;
- MSU1 / USART need to use interface->path(1)
- MSU1 needs to use Markup::Document, not XML::Document
- case-insensitive folder listings
- remove nall/emulation/system.hpp files (move to ananke)
- remove rom/ram id= checks with indexing
X have cores ask for manifest.bml (skipped for v092's release, too
big a change)
- rename compatibility profile to balanced (so people don't assume
it has better compatibility than accuracy)

Update to v089r08 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- Super Game Boy, BS-X Satellaview and Sufami Turbo cartridges all load
manifests that specify their file names, and they all work
- Sufami Turbo can now properly handle carts without RAM, or empty slots
entirely
- Emulator::Interface structures no longer specify any file names, ever
- exposed "capability.(cheats,states)" now. So far, this just means the
GBA doesn't show the cheat editor, since it doesn't support cheat
codes yet
- as such, state manager and cheat editor windows auto-hide (may be
a tiny bit inconvenient, but it makes not having to sync them or deal
with input when no cart is loaded easier)
- added "AbsoluteInput" type, which returns mouse coordinates from
-32767,-32767 (top left) to +32767,+32767 (bottom right) or
-32768,-32768 (offscreen)
AbsoluteInput is just something I'm toying with. Idea is to support eg
Super Scope or Justifier, or possibly some future Famicom controllers
that are absolute-indexed. The coordinates are scaled, so the bigger
your window, the more precise they are. But obviously you can't get more
precise than the emulated system, so 1x scale will behave the same
anyway. I haven't hooked it up yet, need to mess with the idea of custom
cursors via phoenix for that first. Also not sure if it will feel
smoother or not ... if you resize the window, your mouse will seem to
move slower. Still, not having to capture the mouse for SS/JS may be
nicer yet. But we'll see ... just experimenting for now.

Update to v082r29 release.
byuu says:
I doubt anyone is going to like these changes, but oh well.
The base height output for NES+SNES is now always 256x240. The Enable
Overscan option blanks out borders around the screen. This eliminates
the need for an overscan software filter. For NES, it's 16px from the
top and bottom, and 8px from the left and right. Anything less and you
get scrolling artifacts in countless games. For the SNES, it's only 16px
from the top and bottom. Main point is that most NTSC SNES games are
224-height games, so you'll have black borders. Oh well, hack the source
if you want. Game Boy overscan option does nothing.
Everything except for the cheats.xml file now uses BML markup. I need to
write a converter for cheats.xml still. Cut the SNES board parsing code
in half, 30KB->16KB. Much cleaner now.
Took the opportunity to fix a mistake I made back with the XML spec: all
numbers are integers, but can be prefixed with 0x to become hexadecimal.
Before, offset/size values defaulted to hex-mode even without a prefix,
unlike frequency/etc values.
The XML shaders have gone in their own direction anyway, with most being
multi-pass and incompatible with bsnes. So that said, please don't
extend the BML functionality from your end. But f eel free to add to the
XML spec, since other emulators now use that as well. And don't
misunderstand, I love the work that's being done there. It's pretty
awesome to see multi-pass shader capabilities, and the RAM watching
stuff is just amazing.
If there are any really awesome single-pass shaders that people would
like, I can convert it from XML and include it with future releases.
On that topic, I removed the watercolor/hdr-tv ones from the binary
packages (still in the source archive) ... they are neat, but not very
useful for actual gaming.
If we had more than one, I'd remove the Direct3D sepia one. Not going to
use shaders from a certain bipolar manic, because I'd never hear the end
of it if I did :/
Oh, one change I think people will like: MSU1 no longer requires
a memory map specification, so MSU1 authors won't have to keep updating
to my newer revisions of board markups. Basically, if there's not
a board with an msu1 section, it'll check if "gamename.msu" exists. If
it does, MSU1 gets mapped to 00-3f,80-bf:2000-2007. If all you want is
music, make a blank, zero-byte gamename.msu file.

Update to v091r11 release.
byuu says:
This release refines HSU1 support as a bidirectional protocol, nests SFC
manifests as "release/cartridge" and "release/information" (but release/
is not guaranteed to be finalized just yet), removes the database
integration, and adds support for ananke.
ananke represents inevitability. It's a library that, when installed,
higan can use to load files from the command-line, and also from a new
File -> Load Game menu option.
I need to change the build rules a bit for it to work on Windows (need
to make phoenix a DLL, basically), but it works now on Linux.
Right now, it only takes *.sfc file names, looks them up in the included
database, converts them to game folders, and returns the game folder
path for higan to load.
The idea is to continue expanding it to support everything we can that
I don't want in the higan core:
- load *.sfc, *.smc, *.swc, *.fig files
- remove SNES copier headers
- split apart merged firmware files
- pull in external firmware files (eg dsp1b.rom - these are staying
merged, just as SPC7110 prg+dat are merged)
- load *.zip and *.7z archives
- prompt for selection on multi-file archives
- generate manifest files based on heuristics
- apply BPS patches
The "Load" menu option has been renamed to "Library", to represent games
in your library. I'm going to add some sort of suffix to indicate
unverified games, and use a different folder icon for those (eg
manifests built on heuristics rather than from the database.)
So basically, to future end users:
File -> Load Game will be how they play games.
Library -> (specific system) can be thought of as an infinitely-sized
recent games list.
purify will likely become a simple stub that invokes ananke's functions.
No reason to duplicate all that code.
