Update to v096r07 release. byuu says: Changelog: - configuration files are now stored in localpath() instead of configpath() - Video gamma/saturation/luminance sliders are gone now, sorry - added Video Filter->Blur Emulation [1] - added Video Filter->Scanline Emulation [2] - improvements to GBA audio emulation (fixes Minish Cap) [Jonas Quinn] [1] For the Famicom, this does nothing. For the Super Famicom, this performs horizontal blending for proper pseudo-hires translucency. For the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance, this performs interframe blending (each frame is the average of the current and previous frame), which is important for things like the GBVideoPlayer. [2] Right now, this only applies to the Super Famicom, but it'll come to the Famicom in the future. For the Super Famicom, this option doesn't just add scanlines, it simulates the phosphor decay that's visible in interlace mode. If you observe an interlaced game like RPM Racing on a real SNES, you'll notice that even on perfectly still screens, the image appears to shake. This option emulates that effect. Note 1: the buffering right now is a little sub-optimal, so there will be a slight speed hit with this new support. Since the core is now generating native ARGB8888 colors, it might as well call out to the interface to lock/unlock/refresh the video, that way it can render directly to the screen. Although ... that might not be such a hot idea, since the GBx interframe blending reads from the target buffer, and that tends to be a catastrophic option for performance. Note 2: the balanced and performance profiles for the SNES are completely busted again. This WIP took 6 1/2 hours, and I'm exhausted. Very much not looking forward to working on those, since those two have all kinds of fucked up speedup tricks for non-interlaced and/or non-hires video modes. Note 3: if you're on Windows and you saved your system folders somewhere else, now'd be a good time to move them to %localappdata%/higan

Update to v099r08 release. byuu says: Changelog: - nall/vfs work 100% completed; even SGB games load now - emulation cores now call load() for the base cartridges as well - updated port/device handling; portmask is gone; device ID bug should be resolved now - SNES controller port 1 multitap option was removed - added support for 128KiB SNES PPU VRAM (for now, edit sfc/ppu/ppu.hpp VRAM::size=0x10000; to enable) Overall, nall/vfs was a huge success!! We've substantially reduced the amount of boilerplate code everywhere, while still allowing (even easier than before) support for RAM-based game loading/saving. All of nall/stream is dead and buried. I am considering removing Emulator::Interface::Medium::id and/or bootable flag. Or at least, doing something different with it. The values for the non-bootable GB/BS/ST entries duplicate the ID that is supposed to be unique. They are for GB/GBC and WS/WSC. Maybe I'll use this as the hardware revision selection ID, and then gut non-bootable options. There's really no reason for that to be there. I think at one point I was using it to generate library tabs for non-bootable systems, but we don't do that anymore anyway. Emulator::Interface::load() may not need the required flag anymore ... it doesn't really do anything right now anyway. I have a few reasons for having the cores load the base cartridge. Most importantly, it is going to enable a special mode for the WonderSwan / WonderSwan Color in the future. If we ever get the IPLROMs dumped ... it's possible to boot these systems with no games inserted to set user profile information and such. There are also other systems that may accept being booted without a cartridge. To reach this state, you would load a game and then cancel the load dialog. Right now, this results in games not loading. The second reason is this prevents nasty crashes when loading fails. So if you're missing a required manifest, the emulator won't die a violent death anymore. It's able to back out at any point. The third reason is consistency: loading the base cartridge works the same as the slot cartridges. The fourth reason is Emulator::Interface::open(uint pathID) values. Before, the GB, SB, GBC modes were IDs 1,2,3 respectively. This complicated things because you had to pass the correct ID. But now instead, Emulator::Interface::load() returns maybe<uint> that is nothing when no game is selected, and a pathID for a valid game. And now open() can take this ID to access this game's folder contents. The downside, which is temporary, is that command-line loading is currently broken. But I do intend on restoring it. In fact, I want to do better than before and allow multi-cart booting from the command-line by specifying the base cartridge and then slot cartridges. The idea should be pretty simple: keep a queue of pending filenames that we fill from the command-line and/or drag-and-drop operations on the main window, and then empty out the queue or prompt for load dialogs from the UI when booting a system. This also might be a bit more unorthodox compared to the traditional emulator design of "loadGame(filename)", but ... oh well. It's easy enough still. The port/device changes are fun. We simplified things quite a bit. The portmask stuff is gone entirely. While ports and devices keep IDs, this is really just sugar-coating so UIs can use for(auto& port : emulator->ports) and access port.id; rather than having to use for(auto n : range(emulator->ports)) { auto& port = emulator->ports[n]; ... }; but they should otherwise generally be identical to the order they appear in their respective ranges. Still, don't rely on that. Input::id is gone. There was no point since we also got rid of the nasty Input::order vector. Since I was in here, I went ahead and caved on the pedantics and renamed Input::guid to Input::userData. I removed the SNES controller port 1 multitap option. Basically, the only game that uses this is N-warp Daisakusen and, no offense to d4s, it's not really a good game anyway. It's just a quick demo to show 8-players on the SNES. But in the UI, all it does is confuse people into wasting time mapping a controller they're never going to use, and they're going to wonder which port to use. If more compelling use cases for 8-players comes about, we can reconsider this. I left all the code to support this in place, so all you have to do is uncomment one line to enable it again. We now have dsnes emulation! :D If you change PPU::VRAM::size to 0x10000 (words), then you should now have 128KiB of VRAM. Even better, it serializes the used-VRAM size, so your save states shouldn't crash on you if you swap between the two (though if you try this, you're nuts.) Note that this option does break commercial software. Yoshi's Island in particular. This game is setting A15 on some PPU register writes, but not on others. The end result of this is things break horribly in-game. Also, this option is causing a very tiny speed hit for obvious reasons with the variable masking value (I'm even using size-1 for now.) Given how niche this is, I may just leave it a compile-time constant to avoid the overhead cost. Otherwise, if we keep the option, then it'll go into Super Famicom.sys/manifest.bml ... I'll flesh that out in the near-future. ---- Finally, some fun for my OCD ... my monitor suddenly cut out on me in the middle of working on this WIP, about six hours in of non-stop work. Had to hit a bunch of ctrl+alt+fN commands (among other things) and trying to log in headless on another TTY to do issue commands, trying to recover the display. Finally power cycled the monitor and it came back up. So all my typing ended up going to who knows where. Usually this sort of thing terrifies me enough that I scrap a WIP and start over to ensure I didn't screw anything up during the crashed screen when hitting keys randomly. Obviously, everything compiles and appears to work fine. And I know it's extremely paranoid, but OCD isn't logical, so ... I'm going to go over every line of the 100KiB r07->r08 diff looking for any corruption/errors/whatever. ---- Review finished. r08 diff review notes: - fc/controller/gamepad/gamepad.cpp: use uint device = ID::Device::Gamepad; not id = ...; - gb/cartridge/cartridge.hpp: remove redundant uint _pathID; (in Information::pathID already) - gb/cartridge/cartridge.hpp: pull sha256 inside Information - sfc/cartridge/load/cpp: add " - Slot (A,B)" to interface->load("Sufami Turbo"); to be more descriptive - sfc/controller/gamepad/gamepad.cpp: use uint device = ID::Device::Gamepad; not id = ...; - sfc/interface/interface.cpp: remove n variable from the Multitap device input generation loop (now unused) - sfc/interface/interface.hpp: put struct Port above struct Device like the other classes - ui-tomoko: cheats.bml is reading from/writing to mediumPaths(0) [system folder instead of game folder] - ui-tomoko: instead of mediumPaths(1) - call emulator->metadataPathID() or something like that

Update to higan and icarus v095r15 release. r13 and r14 weren't posted as individual releases, but their changelogs were posted. byuu says about r13: I'm not going to be posting WIPs for r13 and above for a while. The reason is that I'm working on the major manifest overhaul I've discussed previously on the icarus subforum. I'm recreating my boards database from scratch using the map files and the new map analyzer. The only games that will load are ones I've created board definitions for, and updated sfc/cartridge/markup.cpp to parse. Once I've finished all the boards, then I'll update the heuristics. Then finally, I'll sync the syntax changes over to the fc, gb, gba cores. Once that's done, I'll start posting WIPs again, along with a new build of icarus. But I'll still post changelogs as I work through things. Changelog (r13): - preservation: created new database-builder tool (merges region-specific databases with boards) - icarus: support new, external database format (~/.config/icarus/Database/(Super Famicom.bml, ...) - added 1A3B-(10,11,12); 1A3B-20 byuu says about r14: r14 work: I successfully created mappings for every board used in the US set. I also updated icarus' heuristics to use the new mappings, and created ones there for the boards that are only in the JP set. Then I patched icarus to support pulling games out of the database when it's used on a game folder to generate a manifest file. Then I updated a lot of code in higan/sfc to support the new mapping syntax. sfc/cartridge/markup.cpp is about half the size it used to be with the new mappings, and I was able to kill off both map/id and map/select entirely. Then I updated all four emulated systems (and both subsystems) to use "board" as the root node, and harmonized their syntax (made them all more consistent with each other.) Then I added a manifest viewer to the tools window+menu. It's kind of an advanced user feature, but oh well. No reason to coddle people when the feature is very useful for developers. The viewer will show all manifests in order when you load multi-cart games as well. Still not going to call any syntax 100% done right now, but thankfully with the new manifest-free folders, nobody will have to do anything to use the new format. Just download the new version and go. The Super Famicom Event stuff is currently broken (CC92/PF94 boards). That's gonna be fun to support. byuu says about r15: EDIT: small bug in icarus with heuristics. Edit core/super-famicom.cpp line 27: if(/*auto*/ markup = cartridge.markup) { Gotta remove that "auto" so that it returns valid markup. Resolved the final concerns I had with the new manifest format. Right now there are two things that are definitely broken: MCC (BS-X Town cart) and Event (CC '92 and PF'94). And there are a few things that are untested: SPC7110, EpsonRTC, SharpRTC, SDD1+RAM, SufamiTurbo, BS-X slotted carts.

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 v101r06 release. byuu says: I reworked the video sizing code. Ended up wasting five fucking hours fighting GTK. When you call `gtk_widget_set_size_request`, it doesn't actually happen then. This is kind of a big deal because when I then go to draw onto the viewport, the actual viewport child window is still the old size, so the image gets distorted. It recovers in a frame or so with emulation, but if we were to put a still image on there, it would stay distorted. The first thought is, `while(gtk_events_pending()) gtk_main_iteration_do(false);` right after the `set_size_request`. But nope, it tells you there's no events pending. So then you think, go deeper, use `XPending()` instead. Same thing, GTK hasn't actually issued the command to Xlib yet. So then you think, if the widget is realized, just call a blocking `gtk_main_iteration`. One call does nothing, two calls results in a deadlock on the second one ... do it before program startup, and the main window will never appear. Great. Oh, and it's not just the viewport. It's also the widget container area of the windows, as well as the window itself, as well as the fullscreen mode toggle effect. They all do this. For the latter three, I couldn't find anything that worked, so I just added 20ms loops of constantly calling `gtk_main_iteration_do(false)` after each one of those things. The downside here is toggling the status bar takes 40ms, so you'll see it and it'll feel a tiny bit sluggish. But I can't have a 20ms wait on each widget resize, that would be catastrophic to performance on windows with lots of widgets. I tried hooking configure-event and size-allocate, but they were very unreliable. So instead I ended up with a loop that waits up to a maximm of 20ms that inspects the `widget->allocation.(width,height)` values directly and waits for them to be what we asked for with `set_size_request`. There was some extreme ugliness in GTK with calling `gtk_main_iteration_do` recursively (`hiro::Widget::setGeometry` is called recursively), so I had to lock it to only happen on the top level widgets (the child ones should get resized while waiting on the top-level ones, so it should be fine in practice), and also only run it on realized widgets. Even still, I'm getting ~3 timeouts when opening the settings dialog in higan, but no other windows. But, this is the best I can do for now. And the reason for all of this pain? Yeah, updated the video code. So the Emulator::Interface now has this:    struct VideoSize { uint width, height; };  //or requiem for a tuple    auto videoSize() -> VideoSize;    auto videoSize(uint width, uint height, bool arc) -> VideoSize; The first function, for now, is just returning the literal surface size. I may remove this ... one thing I want to allow for is cores that send different texture sizes based on interlace/hires/overscan/etc settings. The second function is more interesting. Instead of having the UI trying to figure out sizing, I figure the emulation cores can do a better job and we can customize it per-core now. So it gets the window's width and height, and whether the user asked for aspect correction, and then computes the best width/height ratio possible. For now they're all just doing multiples of a 1x scale to the UI 2x,3x,4x modes. We still need a third function, which will probably be what I repurpose videoSize() for: to return the 'effective' size for pixel shaders, to then feed into ruby, to then feed into quark, to then feed into our shaders. Since shaders use normalized coordinates for pixel fetching, this should work out just fine. The real texture size will be exposed to quark shaders as well, of course. Now for the main window ... it's just hard-coded to be 640x480, 960x720, 1280x960 for now. It works nicely for some cores on some modes, not so much for others. Work in progress I guess. I also took the opportunity to draw the about dialog box logo on the main window. Got a bit fancy and used the old spherical gradient and impose functionality of nall/image on it. Very minor highlight, nothing garish. Just something nicer than a solid black window. If you guys want to mess around with sizes, placements, and gradient styles/colors/shapes ... feel free. If you come up with something nicer, do share. That's what led to all the GTK hell ... the logo wasn't drawing right as you resized the window. But now it is, though I am not at all happy with the hacking I had to do. I also had to improve the video update code as a result of this: - when you unload a game, it blacks out the screen - if you are not quitting the emulator, it'll draw the logo; if you are, it won't - when you load a game, it black out the logo These options prevent any unsightliness from resizing the viewport with image data on it already I need to redraw the logo when toggling fullscreen with no game loaded as well for Windows, it seems.

Update to v088r14 release. byuu says: Changelog: - added NSS DIP switch settings window (when loading NSS carts with appropriate manifest.xml file) - added video shader selection (they go in ~/.config/bsnes/Video Shaders/ now) - added driver selection - added timing settings (not only allows video/audio settings, also has code to dynamically compute the values for you ... and it actually works pretty good!) - moved "None" controller device to bottom of list (it is the least likely to be used, after all) - added Interface::path() to support MSU1, USART, Link - input and hotkey mappings remember list position after assignment - and more! target-ethos now has all of the functionality of target-ui, and more. Final code size for the port is 101.2KB (ethos) vs 167.6KB (ui). A ~67% reduction in code size, yet it does even more! And you can add or remove an entire system with only three lines of code (Makefile include, header include, interface append.) The only problem left is that the BS-X BIOS won't load the BS Zelda no Densetsu file. I can't figure out why it's not working, would appreciate any assistance, but otherwise I'm probably just going to leave it broken for v089, sorry. So the show stoppers for a new release at this point are: - fix laevateinn to compile with the new interface changes (shouldn't be too hard, it'll still use the old, direct interface.) - clean up Emulator::Interface as much as possible (trim down Information, mediaRequest should use an alternate struct designed to load firmware / slots separately) - enhance purify to strip SNES ROM headers, and it really needs a GUI interface - it would be highly desirable to make a launcher that can create a cartridge folder from an existing ROM set (* ethos will need to accept command-line arguments for this.) - probably need to remember which controller was selected in each port for each system across runs - need to fix the cursor for Super Scope / Justifier games (move from 19-bit to 32-bit colors broke it) - have to refactor that cache.(hv)offset thing to fix ASP

Update to v098r06 release. byuu says: Changelog: - emulation cores now refresh video from host thread instead of cothreads (fix AMD crash) - SFC: fixed another bug with leap year months in SharpRTC emulation - SFC: cleaned up camelCase on function names for armdsp,epsonrtc,hitachidsp,mcc,nss,sharprtc classes - GB: added MBC1M emulation (requires manually setting mapper=MBC1M in manifest.bml for now, sorry) - audio: implemented Emulator::Audio mixer and effects processor - audio: implemented Emulator::Stream interface - it is now possible to have more than two audio streams: eg SNES + SGB + MSU1 + Voicer-Kun (eventually) - audio: added reverb delay + reverb level settings; exposed balance configuration in UI - video: reworked palette generation to re-enable saturation, gamma, luminance adjustments - higan/emulator.cpp is gone since there was nothing left in it I know you guys are going to say the color adjust/balance/reverb stuff is pointless. And indeed it mostly is. But I like the idea of allowing some fun special effects and configurability that isn't system-wide. Note: there seems to be some kind of added audio lag in the SGB emulation now, and I don't really understand why. The code should be effectively identical to what I had before. The only main thing is that I'm sampling things to 48000hz instead of 32040hz before mixing. There's no point where I'm intentionally introducing added latency though. I'm kind of stumped, so if anyone wouldn't mind taking a look at it, it'd be much appreciated :/ I don't have an MSU1 test ROM, but the latency issue may affect MSU1 as well, and that would be very bad.

Update to v088r14 release. byuu says: Changelog: - added NSS DIP switch settings window (when loading NSS carts with appropriate manifest.xml file) - added video shader selection (they go in ~/.config/bsnes/Video Shaders/ now) - added driver selection - added timing settings (not only allows video/audio settings, also has code to dynamically compute the values for you ... and it actually works pretty good!) - moved "None" controller device to bottom of list (it is the least likely to be used, after all) - added Interface::path() to support MSU1, USART, Link - input and hotkey mappings remember list position after assignment - and more! target-ethos now has all of the functionality of target-ui, and more. Final code size for the port is 101.2KB (ethos) vs 167.6KB (ui). A ~67% reduction in code size, yet it does even more! And you can add or remove an entire system with only three lines of code (Makefile include, header include, interface append.) The only problem left is that the BS-X BIOS won't load the BS Zelda no Densetsu file. I can't figure out why it's not working, would appreciate any assistance, but otherwise I'm probably just going to leave it broken for v089, sorry. So the show stoppers for a new release at this point are: - fix laevateinn to compile with the new interface changes (shouldn't be too hard, it'll still use the old, direct interface.) - clean up Emulator::Interface as much as possible (trim down Information, mediaRequest should use an alternate struct designed to load firmware / slots separately) - enhance purify to strip SNES ROM headers, and it really needs a GUI interface - it would be highly desirable to make a launcher that can create a cartridge folder from an existing ROM set (* ethos will need to accept command-line arguments for this.) - probably need to remember which controller was selected in each port for each system across runs - need to fix the cursor for Super Scope / Justifier games (move from 19-bit to 32-bit colors broke it) - have to refactor that cache.(hv)offset thing to fix ASP

Update to v097r12 release. byuu says: Nothing WS-related this time. First, I fixed expansion port device mapping. On first load, it was mapping the expansion port device too late, so it ended up not taking effect. I had to spin out the logic for that into Program::connectDevices(). This was proving to be quite annoying while testing eBoot (SNES-Hook simulation.) Second, I fixed the audio->set(Frequency, Latency) functions to take (uint) parameters from the configuration file, so the weird behavior around changing settings in the audio panel should hopefully be gone now. Third, I rewrote the interface->load,unload functions to call into the (Emulator)::System::load,unload functions. And I have those call out to Cartridge::load,unload. Before, this was inverted, and Cartridge::load() was invoking System::load(), which I felt was kind of backward. The Super Game Boy really didn't like this change, however. And it took me a few hours to power through it. Before, I had the Game Boy core dummying out all the interface->(load,save)Request calls, and having the SNES core make them for it. This is because the folder paths and IDs will be different between the two cores. I've redesigned things so that ICD2's Emulator::Interface overloads loadRequest and saveRequest, and translates the requests into new requests for the SuperFamicom core. This allows the Game Boy code to do its own loading for everything without a bunch of Super Game Boy special casing, and without any awkwardness around powering on with no cartridge inserted. This also lets the SNES side of things simply call into higher-level GameBoy::interface->load,save(id, stream) functions instead of stabbing at the raw underlying state inside of various Game Boy core emulation classes. So things are a lot better abstracted now.

Update to v088r03 release. byuu says: static vector<uint8_t> file::read(const string &filename); replaces: static bool file::read(const string &filename, uint8_t *&data, unsigned &size); This allows automatic deletion of the underlying data. Added vectorstream, which is obviously a vector<uint8_t> wrapper for a data stream. Plan is for all data accesses inside my emulation cores to take stream objects, especially MSU1. This lets you feed the core anything: memorystream, filestream, zipstream, gzipstream, httpstream, etc. There will still be exceptions for link and serial, those need actual library files on disk. But those aren't official hardware devices anyway. So to help with speed a bit, I'm rethinking the video rendering path. Previous system: - core outputs system-native samples (SNES = 19-bit LRGB, NES = 9-bit emphasis+palette, DMG = 2-bit grayscale, etc.) - interfaceSystem transforms samples to 30-bit via lookup table inside the emulation core - interfaceSystem masks off overscan areas, if enabled - interfaceUI runs filter to produce new target buffer, if enabled - interfaceUI transforms 30-bit video to native display depth (24-bit or 30-bit), and applies color-adjustments (gamma, etc) at the same time New system: - all cores now generate an internal palette, and call Interface::videoColor(uint32_t source, uint16_t red, uint16_t green, uint16_t blue) to get native display color post-adjusted (gamma, etc applied already.) - all cores output to uint32_t* buffer now (output video.palette[color] instead of just color) - interfaceUI runs filter to produce new target buffer, if enabled - interfaceUI memcpy()'s buffer to the video card videoColor() is pretty neat. source is the raw pixel (as per the old-format, 19-bit SNES, 9-bit NES, etc), and you can create a color from that if you really want to. Or return that value to get a buffer just like v088 and below. red, green, blue are 16-bits per channel, because why the hell not, right? Just lop off all the bits you don't want. If you have more bits on your display than that, fuck you :P The last step is extremely difficult to avoid. Video cards can and do have pitches that differ from the width of the texture. Trying to make the core account for this would be really awful. And even if we did that, the emulation routine would need to write directly to a video card RAM buffer. Some APIs require you to lock the video buffer while writing, so this would leave the video buffer locked for a long time. Probably not catastrophic, but still awful. And lastly, if the emulation core tried writing directly to the display texture, software filters would no longer be possible (unless you -really- jump through hooks and divert to a memory buffer when a filter is enabled, but ... fuck.) Anyway, the point of all that work was to eliminate an extra video copy, and the need for a really painful 30-bit to 24-bit conversion (three shifts, three masks, three array indexes.) So this basically reverts us, performance-wise, to where we were pre-30 bit support. [...] The downside to this is that we're going to need a filter for each output depth. Since the array type is uint32_t*, and I don't intend to support higher or lower depths, we really only need 24+30-bit versions of each filter. Kinda shitty, but oh well.

Update to v099r08 release. byuu says: Changelog: - nall/vfs work 100% completed; even SGB games load now - emulation cores now call load() for the base cartridges as well - updated port/device handling; portmask is gone; device ID bug should be resolved now - SNES controller port 1 multitap option was removed - added support for 128KiB SNES PPU VRAM (for now, edit sfc/ppu/ppu.hpp VRAM::size=0x10000; to enable) Overall, nall/vfs was a huge success!! We've substantially reduced the amount of boilerplate code everywhere, while still allowing (even easier than before) support for RAM-based game loading/saving. All of nall/stream is dead and buried. I am considering removing Emulator::Interface::Medium::id and/or bootable flag. Or at least, doing something different with it. The values for the non-bootable GB/BS/ST entries duplicate the ID that is supposed to be unique. They are for GB/GBC and WS/WSC. Maybe I'll use this as the hardware revision selection ID, and then gut non-bootable options. There's really no reason for that to be there. I think at one point I was using it to generate library tabs for non-bootable systems, but we don't do that anymore anyway. Emulator::Interface::load() may not need the required flag anymore ... it doesn't really do anything right now anyway. I have a few reasons for having the cores load the base cartridge. Most importantly, it is going to enable a special mode for the WonderSwan / WonderSwan Color in the future. If we ever get the IPLROMs dumped ... it's possible to boot these systems with no games inserted to set user profile information and such. There are also other systems that may accept being booted without a cartridge. To reach this state, you would load a game and then cancel the load dialog. Right now, this results in games not loading. The second reason is this prevents nasty crashes when loading fails. So if you're missing a required manifest, the emulator won't die a violent death anymore. It's able to back out at any point. The third reason is consistency: loading the base cartridge works the same as the slot cartridges. The fourth reason is Emulator::Interface::open(uint pathID) values. Before, the GB, SB, GBC modes were IDs 1,2,3 respectively. This complicated things because you had to pass the correct ID. But now instead, Emulator::Interface::load() returns maybe<uint> that is nothing when no game is selected, and a pathID for a valid game. And now open() can take this ID to access this game's folder contents. The downside, which is temporary, is that command-line loading is currently broken. But I do intend on restoring it. In fact, I want to do better than before and allow multi-cart booting from the command-line by specifying the base cartridge and then slot cartridges. The idea should be pretty simple: keep a queue of pending filenames that we fill from the command-line and/or drag-and-drop operations on the main window, and then empty out the queue or prompt for load dialogs from the UI when booting a system. This also might be a bit more unorthodox compared to the traditional emulator design of "loadGame(filename)", but ... oh well. It's easy enough still. The port/device changes are fun. We simplified things quite a bit. The portmask stuff is gone entirely. While ports and devices keep IDs, this is really just sugar-coating so UIs can use for(auto& port : emulator->ports) and access port.id; rather than having to use for(auto n : range(emulator->ports)) { auto& port = emulator->ports[n]; ... }; but they should otherwise generally be identical to the order they appear in their respective ranges. Still, don't rely on that. Input::id is gone. There was no point since we also got rid of the nasty Input::order vector. Since I was in here, I went ahead and caved on the pedantics and renamed Input::guid to Input::userData. I removed the SNES controller port 1 multitap option. Basically, the only game that uses this is N-warp Daisakusen and, no offense to d4s, it's not really a good game anyway. It's just a quick demo to show 8-players on the SNES. But in the UI, all it does is confuse people into wasting time mapping a controller they're never going to use, and they're going to wonder which port to use. If more compelling use cases for 8-players comes about, we can reconsider this. I left all the code to support this in place, so all you have to do is uncomment one line to enable it again. We now have dsnes emulation! :D If you change PPU::VRAM::size to 0x10000 (words), then you should now have 128KiB of VRAM. Even better, it serializes the used-VRAM size, so your save states shouldn't crash on you if you swap between the two (though if you try this, you're nuts.) Note that this option does break commercial software. Yoshi's Island in particular. This game is setting A15 on some PPU register writes, but not on others. The end result of this is things break horribly in-game. Also, this option is causing a very tiny speed hit for obvious reasons with the variable masking value (I'm even using size-1 for now.) Given how niche this is, I may just leave it a compile-time constant to avoid the overhead cost. Otherwise, if we keep the option, then it'll go into Super Famicom.sys/manifest.bml ... I'll flesh that out in the near-future. ---- Finally, some fun for my OCD ... my monitor suddenly cut out on me in the middle of working on this WIP, about six hours in of non-stop work. Had to hit a bunch of ctrl+alt+fN commands (among other things) and trying to log in headless on another TTY to do issue commands, trying to recover the display. Finally power cycled the monitor and it came back up. So all my typing ended up going to who knows where. Usually this sort of thing terrifies me enough that I scrap a WIP and start over to ensure I didn't screw anything up during the crashed screen when hitting keys randomly. Obviously, everything compiles and appears to work fine. And I know it's extremely paranoid, but OCD isn't logical, so ... I'm going to go over every line of the 100KiB r07->r08 diff looking for any corruption/errors/whatever. ---- Review finished. r08 diff review notes: - fc/controller/gamepad/gamepad.cpp: use uint device = ID::Device::Gamepad; not id = ...; - gb/cartridge/cartridge.hpp: remove redundant uint _pathID; (in Information::pathID already) - gb/cartridge/cartridge.hpp: pull sha256 inside Information - sfc/cartridge/load/cpp: add " - Slot (A,B)" to interface->load("Sufami Turbo"); to be more descriptive - sfc/controller/gamepad/gamepad.cpp: use uint device = ID::Device::Gamepad; not id = ...; - sfc/interface/interface.cpp: remove n variable from the Multitap device input generation loop (now unused) - sfc/interface/interface.hpp: put struct Port above struct Device like the other classes - ui-tomoko: cheats.bml is reading from/writing to mediumPaths(0) [system folder instead of game folder] - ui-tomoko: instead of mediumPaths(1) - call emulator->metadataPathID() or something like that

Update to v099r07 release. byuu says: Changelog: - (hopefully) fixed BS Memory and Sufami Turbo slot loading - ported GB, GBA, WS cores to use nall/vfs - completely removed loadRequest, saveRequest functionality from Emulator::Interface and ui-tomoko - loadRequest(folder) is now load(folder) - save states now use a shared Emulator::SerializerVersion string - whenever this is bumped, all older states will break; but this makes bumping state versions way easier - also, the version string makes it a lot easier to identify compatibility windows for save states - SNES PPU now uses uint16 vram[32768] for memory accesses [hex_usr] NOTE: Super Game Boy loading is currently broken, and I'm not entirely sure how to fix it :/ The file loading handoff was -really- complicated, and so I'm kind of at a loss ... so for now, don't try it. Everything else should theoretically work, so please report any bugs you find. So, this is pretty much it. I'd be very curious to hear feedback from people who objected to the old nall/stream design, whether they are happy with the new file loading system or think it could use further improvements. The 16-bit VRAM turned out to be a wash on performance (roughly the same as before. 1fps slower on Zelda 3, 1fps faster on Yoshi's Island.) The main reason for this was because Yoshi's Island was breaking horribly until I changed the vramRead, vramWrite functions to take uint15 instead of uint16. I suspect the issue is we're using uint16s in some areas now that need to be uint15, and this game is setting the VRAM address to 0x8000+, causing us to go out of bounds on memory accesses. But ... I want to go ahead and do something cute for fun, and just because we can ... and this new interface is so incredibly perfect for it!! I want to support an SNES unit with 128KiB of VRAM. Not out of the box, but as a fun little tweakable thing. The SNES was clearly designed to support that, they just didn't use big enough VRAM chips, and left one of the lines disconnected. So ... let's connect it anyway! In the end, if we design it right, the only code difference should be one area where we mask by 15-bits instead of by 16-bits.

Contrast was just a multiplier on intensity of each channel, and brightness was an addition or subtraction against each channel. They kind of overlapped and weren't that effective. The new setup has saturation, gamma and luminance. Saturation of 100% is normal. If you lower it, color information goes away. 0% = grayscale. If you raise it, color intensity increases (and clamps.) This is wonderful for GBA games, since they are oversaturated to fucking death. Of course we'll want to normalize that inside the core, so the same sat. value works on all systems, but for now it's nice. If you raise saturation above 100%, it basically acts like contrast used to. It's just that lowering it fades to grayscale rather than black. Adding doesn't really work well for brightness, it throws off the relative distance between channels and looks like shit. So now we have luminance, which takes over the old contrast <100% role, and just fades the pixels toward black. Obviously, luminance > 100% would be the same as saturation > 100%, so that isn't allowed, it caps at 100% now. Gamma's the same old function. Gamma curve on the lower-half of the color range. Effects are applied in the order they appear in the GUI: color -> saturate -> gammify -> luminate -> output.

Update to v096r07 release. byuu says: Changelog: - configuration files are now stored in localpath() instead of configpath() - Video gamma/saturation/luminance sliders are gone now, sorry - added Video Filter->Blur Emulation [1] - added Video Filter->Scanline Emulation [2] - improvements to GBA audio emulation (fixes Minish Cap) [Jonas Quinn] [1] For the Famicom, this does nothing. For the Super Famicom, this performs horizontal blending for proper pseudo-hires translucency. For the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance, this performs interframe blending (each frame is the average of the current and previous frame), which is important for things like the GBVideoPlayer. [2] Right now, this only applies to the Super Famicom, but it'll come to the Famicom in the future. For the Super Famicom, this option doesn't just add scanlines, it simulates the phosphor decay that's visible in interlace mode. If you observe an interlaced game like RPM Racing on a real SNES, you'll notice that even on perfectly still screens, the image appears to shake. This option emulates that effect. Note 1: the buffering right now is a little sub-optimal, so there will be a slight speed hit with this new support. Since the core is now generating native ARGB8888 colors, it might as well call out to the interface to lock/unlock/refresh the video, that way it can render directly to the screen. Although ... that might not be such a hot idea, since the GBx interframe blending reads from the target buffer, and that tends to be a catastrophic option for performance. Note 2: the balanced and performance profiles for the SNES are completely busted again. This WIP took 6 1/2 hours, and I'm exhausted. Very much not looking forward to working on those, since those two have all kinds of fucked up speedup tricks for non-interlaced and/or non-hires video modes. Note 3: if you're on Windows and you saved your system folders somewhere else, now'd be a good time to move them to %localappdata%/higan

Update to v098r04 release. byuu says: Changelog: - SFC: fixed behavior of 21fx $21fe register when no device is connected (must return zero) - SFC: reduced 21fx buffer size to 1024 bytes in both directions to mirror the FT232H we are using - SFC: eliminated dsp/modulo-array.hpp [1] - higan: implemented higan/video interface and migrated all cores to it [2] [1] the echo history buffer was 8-bytes, so there was no need for it at all here. Not sure what I was thinking. The BRR buffer was 12-bytes, and has very weird behavior ... but there's only a single location in the code where it actually writes to this buffer. It's much easier to just write to the buffer three times there instead of implementing an entire class just to abstract away two lines of code. This change actually boosted the speed from ~124.5fps to around ~127.5fps, but that's within the margin of error for GCC. I doubt it's actually faster this way. The DSP core could really use a ton of work. It comes from a port of blargg's spc_dsp to my coding style, but he was extremely fond of using 32-bit signed integers everywhere. There's a lot of opportunity to remove red tape masking by resizing the variables to their actual state sizes. I really need to find where I put spc_dsp6.sfc from blargg. It's a great test to verify if I've made any mistakes in my implementation that would cause regressions. Don't suppose anyone has it? [2] so again, the idea is that higan/audio and higan/video are going to sit between the emulation cores and the user interfaces. The hope is to output raw encoding data from the emulation cores without having to worry about the video display format (generally 24-bit RGB) of the host display. And also to avoid having to repeat myself with eg three separate implementations of interframe blending, and so on. Furthermore, the idea is that the user interface can configure its side of the settings, and the emulation cores can configure their sides. Thus, neither has to worry about the other end. And now we can spin off new user interfaces much easier without having to mess with all of these things. Right now, I've implemented color emulation, interframe blending and SNES horizontal color bleed. I did not implement scanlines (and interlace effects for them) yet, but I probably will at some point. Further, for right now, the WonderSwan/Color screen rotation is busted and will only show games in the horizontal orientation. Obviously this must be fixed before the next official release, but I'll want to think about how to implement it. Also, the SNES light gun pointers are missing for now. Things are a bit messy right now as I've gone through several revisions of how to handle these things, so a good house cleaning is in order once everything is feature-complete again. I need to sit down and think through how and where I want to handle things like light gun cursors, LCD icons, and maybe even rasterized text messages. And obviously ... higan/audio is still just nall::DSP's headers. I need to revamp that whole interface. I want to make it quite powerful with a true audio mixer so I can handle things like SNES+SGB+MSU1+Voicer-Kun+SNES-CD (five separate audio streams at once.) The video system has the concept of "effects" for things like color bleed and interframe blending. I want to extend on this with useful other effects, such as NTSC simulation, maybe bringing back my mini-HQ2x filter, etc. I'd also like to restore the saturation/gamma/luma adjustment sliders ... I always liked allowing people to compensate for their displays without having to change settings system-wide. Lastly, I've always wanted to see some audio effects. Although I doubt we'll ever get my dream of CoreAudio-style profiles, I'd like to get some basic equalizer settings and echo/reverb effects in there.

Update to v096r07 release. byuu says: Changelog: - configuration files are now stored in localpath() instead of configpath() - Video gamma/saturation/luminance sliders are gone now, sorry - added Video Filter->Blur Emulation [1] - added Video Filter->Scanline Emulation [2] - improvements to GBA audio emulation (fixes Minish Cap) [Jonas Quinn] [1] For the Famicom, this does nothing. For the Super Famicom, this performs horizontal blending for proper pseudo-hires translucency. For the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance, this performs interframe blending (each frame is the average of the current and previous frame), which is important for things like the GBVideoPlayer. [2] Right now, this only applies to the Super Famicom, but it'll come to the Famicom in the future. For the Super Famicom, this option doesn't just add scanlines, it simulates the phosphor decay that's visible in interlace mode.
