Update to v102r08 release.

Changelog:
- PCE: restructured VCE, VDCs to run one scanline at a time
- PCE: bound VDCs to 1365x262 timing (in order to decouple the VDCs
from the VCE)
- PCE: the two changes above allow save states to function; also
grants a minor speed boost
- PCE: added cheat code support (uses 21-bit bus addressing; compare
byte will be useful here)
- 68K: fixed `mov *,ccr` to read two bytes instead of one [Cydrak]
- Z80: emulated /BUSREQ, /BUSACK; allows 68K to suspend the Z80
[Cydrak]
- MD: emulated the Z80 executing instructions [Cydrak]
- MD: emulated Z80 interrupts (triggered during each Vblank period)
[Cydrak]
- MD: emulated Z80 memory map [Cydrak]
- MD: added stubs for PSG, YM2612 accesses [Cydrak]
- MD: improved bus emulation [Cydrak]
The PCE core is pretty much ready to go. The only major feature missing
is FM modulation.
The Mega Drive improvements let us start to see the splash screens for
Langrisser II, Shining Force, Shining in the Darkness. I was hoping I
could get them in-game, but no such luck. My Z80 implementation is
probably flawed in some way ... now that I think about it, I believe I
missed the BusAPU::reset() check for having been granted access to the
Z80 first. But I doubt that's the problem.
Next step is to implement Cydrak's PSG core into the Master System
emulator. Once that's in, I'm going to add save states and cheat code
support to the Master System core.
Next, I'll add the PSG core into the Mega Drive. Then I'll add the
'easy' PCM part of the YM2612. Then the rest of the beastly YM2612 core.
Then finally, cap things off with save state and cheat code support.
Should be nearing a new release at that point.

Changelog:
- removed Emulator::Interface::Capabilities¹
- MS: improved the PSG emulation a bit
- MS: added cheat code support
- MS: added save state support²
- MD: emulated the PSG³
¹: there's really no point to it anymore. I intend to add cheat codes
to the GBA core, as well as both cheat codes and save states to the Mega
Drive core. I no longer intend to emulate any new systems, so these
values will always be true. Further, the GUI doesn't respond to these
values to disable those features anymore ever since the hiro rewrite, so
they're double useless.
²: right now, the Z80 core is using a pointer for HL-\>(IX,IY)
overrides. But I can't reliably serialize pointers, so I need to convert
the Z80 core to use an integer here. The save states still appear to
work fine, but there's the potential for an instruction to execute
incorrectly if you're incredibly unlucky, so this needs to be fixed as
soon as possible. Further, I still need a way to serialize
array<T, Size> objects, and I should also add nall::Boolean
serialization support.
³: I don't have a system in place to share identical sound chips. But
this chip is so incredibly simple that it's not really much trouble to
duplicate it. Further, I can strip out the stereo sound support code
from the Game Gear portion, so it's even tinier.
Note that the Mega Drive only just barely uses the PSG. Not at all in
Altered Beast, and only for a tiny part of the BGM music on Sonic 1,
plus his jump sound effect.

Update to v102r16 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- Emulator::Stream now allows adding low-pass and high-pass filters
dynamically
- also accepts a pass# count; each pass is a second-order biquad
butterworth IIR filter
- Emulator::Stream no longer automatically filters out >20KHz
frequencies for all streams
- FC: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter
- GB: removed simple 'magic constant' high-pass filter of unknown
cutoff frequency (missed this one in the last WIP)
- GB,SGB,GBC: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter
- MS,GG,MD/PSG: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter
- MD: added save state support (but it's completely broken for now;
sorry)
- MD/YM2612: fixed Voice#3 per-operator pitch support (fixes sound
effects in Streets of Rage, etc)
- PCE: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter
- WS,WSC: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter
So, the point of the low-pass filters is to remove frequencies above
human hearing. If we don't do this, then resampling will introduce
aliasing that results in sounds that are audible to the human ear. Which
basically an annoying buzzing sound. You'll definitely hear the
improvement from these in games like Mega Man 2 on the NES. Of course,
these already existed before, so this WIP won't sound better than
previous WIPs.
The high-pass filters are a little more complicated. Their main role is
to remove DC bias and help to center the audio stream. I don't
understand how they do this at all, but ... that's what everyone who
knows what they're talking about says, thus ... so be it.
I have set all of the high-pass filters to 20Hz, which is below the
limit of human hearing. Now this is where it gets really interesting ...
technically, some of these systems actually cut off a lot of range. For
instance, the GBA should technically use an 800Hz high-pass filter when
output is done through the system's speakers. But of course, if you plug
in headphones, you can hear the lower frequencies.
Now 800Hz ... you definitely can hear. At that level, nearly all of the
bass is stripped out and the audio is very tinny. Just like the real
system. But for now, I don't want to emulate the audio being crushed
that badly.
I'm sticking with 20Hz everywhere since it won't negatively affect audio
quality. In fact, you should not be able to hear any difference between
this WIP and the previous WIP. But theoretically, DC bias should mostly
be removed as a result of these new filters. It may be that we need to
raise the values on some cores in the future, but I don't want to do
that until we know for certain that we have to.
What I can say is that compared to even older WIPs than r15 ... the
removal of the simple one-pole low-pass and high-pass filters with the
newer three-pass, second-order filters should result in much better
attenuation (less distortion of audible frequencies.) Probably not
enough to be noticeable in a blind test, though.

Update to v102r15 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- nall: added DSP::IIR::OnePole (which is a first-order IIR filter)
- FC/APU: removed strong highpass, weak hipass filters (and the
dummied out lowpass filter)
- MS,GG,MD/PSG: removed lowpass filter
- MS,GG,MD/PSG: audio was not being centered properly; removed
centering for now
- MD/YM2612: fixed clipping of accumulator from 18 signed bits to 14
signed bits (-0x2000 to +0x1fff) [Cydrak]
- MD/YM2612: removed lowpass filter
- PCE/PSG: audio was not being centered properly; removed centering
for now
First thing is that I've removed all of the ad-hoc audio filtering.
Emulator::Stream intrinsically provides a three-pass, second-order
biquad IIR butterworth lowpass filter that clips frequencies above 20KHz
with very good attenuation (as good as IIR gets, anyway.)
It doesn't really make sense to have the various cores running
additional lowpass filters. If we want to filter frequencies below
20KHz, then I can adapt Emulator::Audio::createStream() to take a cutoff
frequency value, and we can do it all at once, with much better quality.
Right now, I don't know what frequencies are best to cut off the various
other audio cores, so they're just gone for now.
As for the highpass filters for the Famicom core, well ... you don't get
aliasing from resampling low frequencies. And generally speaking, too
low a frequency will be inaudible anyway. All these were doing was
killing possible bass (if they were too strong.) We can add them again,
but only if someone can convert Ryphecha's ad-hoc magic integers into a
frequency cutoff. In which case, I'll use my biquad IIR filter to do it
even better. On this note, it may prove useful to do this for the MD PSG
as well, to try and head off unnecessary clamping when mixing with the
YM2612.
Finally, there was the audio centering issue that affected the
MS,GG,MD,PCE,SG cores. It was flooring the "silent" audio level, which
was resulting in extremely heavy distortion if you tried listening to
higan and, say, audacious at the same time. Without the botched
centering, this distortion is completely gone now.
However, without any centering, we've halved the potential volume range.
This means the audio slider in higan's audio settings panel will start
clamping twice as quickly. So ultimately, we need to figure out how to
fix the centering. This isn't as simple as just subtracting less. We
will probably have to center every individual audio channel before
summing them to do this properly.
Results:
On the Mega Drive, Altered Beast sounds quite a bit better, a lot less
distortion now. But it's still not perfect, especially sound effects.
Further, Bare Knuckle / Streets of Rage still has really bad sound
effects. It looks like I broke something in Cydrak's code when trying to
adapt it to my style =(

Once again, the changes to the SPC700 core are really quite massive. And
this time it's not just cosmetic: the idle cycles have been updated to

functions -- so that I could handle the at-times very bizarre addresses
the SPC700 has on its address bus during its idle cycles.
There is one behavior Overload mentioned that I don't emulate ... one of
the cycles of the (X) transfer functions seems to not actually access
the $f0-ff internal SMP registers? I don't fully understand what
Overload is getting at, so I haven't tried to support it just yet.
Also, there are limits to logic analyzers. In many cases the same
address is read from twice consecutively. It is unclear which of the two
reads the SPC700 actually utilizes. I tried to choose the most logical
values (usually the first one), but ... I don't know that we'll be able
to figure this one out. It's going to be virtually impossible to test
this through software, because the PC can't really execute out of

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.

Changelog:
- MD/PSG: fixed 68K bus Z80 status read address location
- MS, GG, MD/PSG: channels post-decrement their counters, not
pre-decrement [Cydrak]¹
- MD/VDP: cache screen width registers once per scanline; screen
height registers once per frame
- MD/VDP: support 256-width display mode (used in Shining Force, etc)
- MD/YM2612: implemented timers²
- MD/YM2612: implemented 8-bit PCM DAC²
- 68000: TRAP instruction should index the vector location by 32 (eg
by 128 bytes), fixes Shining Force
- nall: updated hex(), octal(), binary() functions to take uintmax
instead of template<typename T> parameter³
¹: this one makes an incredible difference. Sie noticed that lots of
games set a period of 0, which would end up being a really long period
with pre-decrement. By fixing this, noise shows up in many more games,
and sounds way better in games even where it did before. You can hear
extra sound on Lunar - Sanposuru Gakuen's title screen, the noise in
Sonic The Hedgehog (Mega Drive) sounds better, etc.
²: this also really helps sound. The timers allow PSG music to play
back at the correct speed instead of playing back way too quickly. And
the PCM DAC lets you hear a lot of drum effects, as well as the
"Sega!!" sound at the start of Sonic the Hedgehog, and the infamous,
"Rise from your grave!" line from Altered Beast.
Still, most music on the Mega Drive comes from the FM channels, so
there's still not a whole lot to listen to.
I didn't implement Cydrak's $02c test register just yet. Sie wasn't 100%
certain on how the extended DAC bit worked, so I'd like to play it a
little conservative and get sound working, then I'll go back and add a
toggle or something to enable undocumented registers, that way we can
use that to detect any potential problems they might be causing.
³: unfortunately we lose support for using hex() on nall/arithmetic
types. If I have a const Pair& version of the function, then the
compiler gets confused on whether Natural<32> should use uintmax or
const Pair&, because compilers are stupid, and you can't have explicit
arguments in overloaded functions. So even though either function would
work, it just decides to error out instead >_>
This is actually really annoying, because I want hex() to be useful for
printing out nall/crypto keys and hashes directly.
But ... this change had to be made. Negative signed integers would crash
programs, and that was taking out my 68000 disassembler.

Changelog:
- nall/dsp: improve one pole coefficient calculations [Fatbag]
- higan/audio: reworked filters to support selection of either one
pole (first-order) or biquad (second-order) filters
- note: the design is not stable yet; so forks should not put too
much effort into synchronizing with this change yet
- fc: added first-order filters as per NESdev wiki (90hz lowpass +
440hz lowpass + 14khz highpass)
- fc: created separate NTSC-J and NTSC-U regions
- NESdev wiki says the Japanese Famicom uses a separate audio
filtering strategy, but details are fuzzy
- there's also cartridge audio output being disabled on NES units;
and differences with controllers
- this stuff will be supported in the future, just adding the
support for it now
- gba: corrected serious bugs in PSG wave channel emulation [Cydrak]
- note that if there are still bugs here, it's my fault
- md/psg,ym2612: added first-order low-pass 2840hz filter to match
VA3-VA6 Mega Drives
- md/psg: lowered volume relative to the YM2612
- using 0x1400; multiple people agreed it was the closest to the
hardware recordings against a VA6
- ms,md/psg: don't serialize the volume levels array
- md/vdp: Hblank bit acts the same during Vblank as outside of it (it
isn't always set during Vblank)
- md/vdp: return isPAL in bit 0 of control port reads
- tomoko: change command-line option separator from : to |
- [Editor's note: This change was present in the public v103,
but it's in this changelog because it was made after the v103 WIP]
- higan/all: change the 20hz high-pass filters from second-order
three-pass to first-order one-pass
- these filters are meant to remove DC bias, but I honestly can't
hear a difference with or without them
- so there's really no sense wasting CPU power with an extremely
powerful filter here
Things I did not do:
- change icarus install rule
- work on 8-bit Mega Drive SRAM
- work on Famicom or Mega Drive region detection heuristics in icarus
My long-term dream plan is to devise a special user-configurable
filtering system where you can set relative volumes and create your own
list of filters (any number of them in any order at any frequency), that
way people can make the systems sound however they want.
Right now, the sanest place to put this information is inside the
$system.sys/manifest.bml files. But that's not very user friendly, and
upgrading to new versions will lose these changes if you don't copy them
over manually. Of course, cluttering the GUI with a fancy filter editor
is probably supreme overkill for 99% of users, so maybe that's fine.

Changelog:
- removed Emulator::Interface::Capabilities¹
- MS: improved the PSG emulation a bit
- MS: added cheat code support
- MS: added save state support²
- MD: emulated the PSG³
¹: there's really no point to it anymore. I intend to add cheat codes
to the GBA core, as well as both cheat codes and save states to the Mega
Drive core. I no longer intend to emulate any new systems, so these
values will always be true. Further, the GUI doesn't respond to these
values to disable those features anymore ever since the hiro rewrite, so
they're double useless.
²: right now, the Z80 core is using a pointer for HL-\>(IX,IY)
overrides. But I can't reliably serialize pointers, so I need to convert
the Z80 core to use an integer here. The save states still appear to
work fine, but there's the potential for an instruction to execute
incorrectly if you're incredibly unlucky, so this needs to be fixed as
soon as possible. Further, I still need a way to serialize
array<T, Size> objects, and I should also add nall::Boolean
serialization support.
³: I don't have a system in place to share identical sound chips. But
this chip is so incredibly simple that it's not really much trouble to
duplicate it. Further, I can strip out the stereo sound support code
from the Game Gear portion, so it's even tinier.
Note that the Mega Drive only just barely uses the PSG. Not at all in
Altered Beast, and only for a tiny part of the BGM music on Sonic 1,
plus his jump sound effect.

Update to v103r01 release.

Changelog:
- nall/dsp: improve one pole coefficient calculations [Fatbag]
- higan/audio: reworked filters to support selection of either one
pole (first-order) or biquad (second-order) filters
- note: the design is not stable yet; so forks should not put too
much effort into synchronizing with this change yet
- fc: added first-order filters as per NESdev wiki (90hz lowpass +
440hz lowpass + 14khz highpass)
- fc: created separate NTSC-J and NTSC-U regions
- NESdev wiki says the Japanese Famicom uses a separate audio
filtering strategy, but details are fuzzy
- there's also cartridge audio output being disabled on NES units;
and differences with controllers
- this stuff will be supported in the future, just adding the
support for it now
- gba: corrected serious bugs in PSG wave channel emulation [Cydrak]
- note that if there are still bugs here, it's my fault
- md/psg,ym2612: added first-order low-pass 2840hz filter to match
VA3-VA6 Mega Drives
- md/psg: lowered volume relative to the YM2612
- using 0x1400; multiple people agreed it was the closest to the
hardware recordings against a VA6
- ms,md/psg: don't serialize the volume levels array
- md/vdp: Hblank bit acts the same during Vblank as outside of it (it
isn't always set during Vblank)
- md/vdp: return isPAL in bit 0 of control port reads
- tomoko: change command-line option separator from : to |
- [Editor's note: This change was present in the public v103,
but it's in this changelog because it was made after the v103 WIP]
- higan/all: change the 20hz high-pass filters from second-order
three-pass to first-order one-pass
- these filters are meant to remove DC bias, but I honestly can't
hear a difference with or without them
- so there's really no sense wasting CPU power with an extremely
powerful filter here
Things I did not do:
- change icarus install rule
- work on 8-bit Mega Drive SRAM
- work on Famicom or Mega Drive region detection heuristics in icarus
