- ruby/input/keyboard/quartz: fixed compilation error
So only bsnes the automated overscan cropping option. In higan, you can
crop however many lines you like from the top or bottom of the image.
But for bsnes, it automatically eats sixteen lines. My view right now is
that if bsnes is meant to be the casual gaming emulator, that it should
eat line 224 in this mode. Most games show content here, but because of
the way the SNES PPU works, the very last line ends up on its very own
tile row (line 0 isn't rendered), if the scroll registers don't account
for it. There's a small number of games that will draw junk data to the
very last scanline of the frame as a result of this. So I chose, at
least for now, to hide it. Users can obviously disable overscan cropping
to see this scanline. I'm open to being convinced not to do this, if
someone has a compelling reason.
We're pretty much screwed one way or the other with no overscan masking.
If we output 239 lines, then most games will render 7 blank lines + 224
drawn lines + 8 blank lines, and the black top and bottom aren't
centered. But if we output 240 lines to get 8 + 224 + 8, then games that
do use overscan will have a blank line at the very bottom of the window.
I'm also trying out a modified cheat code file format. It's been forever
since I bothered to look at it, and the “cartridge” parent node doesn't
match what I'm doing with trying to rename “cartridge” to “game” in
manifests. And indeed, the idea of requiring a root node is rather
superfluous for a cheat code file. Current format looks like this:
cheat
description: foo
code: 7e2000=20+7e2001=30?40
enabled
cheat
description: bar
code: 7e4000=80
Open to discussing this, and I'd like to sync up with Snes9X before they
push out a new release, and I'll agree to finalize and never change this
format again.
I chose to use .cht for the extension when using game files (eg
gamename.cht)

Update to v106r26 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- nall: added -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ to Windows/GCC link
flags
- bsnes, higan: added program icons to main window when game isn't
loaded
- bsnes: improved recent games menu sorting
- bsnes: fixed multi-game recent game loading on Windows
- bsnes: completed path override support
- bsnes, higan: added screensaver suppression on Windows
- icarus: add 32K volatile RAM to SuperFX boards that report no RAM
(fixes Starfox)
- bsnes, higan: added automatic dependency generation [Talarubi]
- hiro/GTK: appending actions to menus restores enabled() state
- higan: use board node inside manifest.bml if it exists
- bsnes: added blur emulation and color emulation options to view menu
- ruby: upgraded input.sdl to SDL 2.0 (though it makes no functional
difference sadly)
- ruby: removed video.sdl (due to deprecating SDL 1.2)

IDs)
Errata:
- bsnes, higan: on Windows, Application::Windows::onScreenSaver needs
`[&]` lambda capture, not `[]`
- find it in presentation/presentation.cpp

Update to v103r22 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- ruby: ported all remaining drivers to new API¹
- ruby/wasapi: fix for dropping one sample per period [SuperMikeMan]
- gb: emulated most of the TAMA RTC; but RTC state is still volatile²
¹: the new ports are:
- audio/{directsound, alsa, pulseaudio, pulseaudiosimple, ao}
- input/{udev, quartz, carbon}
It's pretty much guaranteed many of them will have compilation errors.
Please paste the error logs and I'll try to fix them up. It may take a
WIP or two to get there.
It's also possible things broke from the updates. If so, I could use
help comparing the old file to the new file, looking for mistakes, since
I can't test on these platforms apart from audio/directsound.
Please report working drivers in this list, so we can mark them off the
list. I'll need both macOS and Linux testers.
audio/directsound.cpp:112:
if(DirectSoundCreate(0, &_interface, 0) != DS_OK) return terminate(), false;
²: once I get this working, I'll add load/save support for the RTC
values. For now, the RTC data will be lost when you close the emulator.
Right now, you can set the date/time in real-time mode, and when you
start the game, the time will be correct, and the time will tick
forward. Note that it runs off emulated time instead of actual real
time, so if you fast-forward to 300%, one minute will be 20 seconds.
The really big limitation right now is that when you exit the game, and
restart it, and resume a new game, the hour spot gets corrupted, and
this seems to instantly kill your pet. Fun. This is crazy because the
commands the game sends to the TAMA interface are identical between
starting a new game and getting in-game versus loading a game.
It's likely going to require disassembling the game's code and seeing
what in the hell it's doing, but I am extremely bad at LR35092 assembly.
Hopefully endrift can help here :|

Update to v096r02 (OS X Preview for Developers) release.
byuu says:
Warning: this is not for the faint of heart. This is a very early,
unpolished, buggy release. But help testing/fixing bugs would be greatly
appreciated for anyone willing.
Requirements:
- Mac OS X 10.7+
- Xcode 7.2+
Installation Commands:
cd higan
gmake -j 4
gmake install
cd ../icarus
gmake -j 4
gmake install
(gmake install is absolutely required, sorry. You'll be missing key
files in key places if you don't run it, and nothing will work.)
(gmake uninstall also exists, or you can just delete the .app bundles
from your Applications folder, and the Dev folder on your desktop.)
If you want to use the GBA emulation, then you need to drop the GBA BIOS
into ~/Emulation/System/Game\ Boy\ Advance.sys\bios.rom
Usage:
You'll now find higan.app and icarus.app in your Applications folders.
First, run icarus.app, navigate to where you keep your game ROMs. Now
click the settings button at the bottom right, and check "Create
Manifests", and click OK. (You'll need to do this every time you run
icarus because there's some sort of bug on OSX saving the settings.) Now
click "Import", and let it bring in your games into ~/Emulation.
Note: "Create Manifests" is required. I don't yet have a pipe
implementation on OS X for higan to invoke icarus yet. If you don't
check this box, it won't create manifest.bml files, and your games won't
run at all.
Now you can run higan.app. The first thing you'll want to do is go to
higan->Preferences... and assign inputs for your gamepads. At the very
least, do it for the default controller for all the systems you want to
emulate.
Now this is very important ... close the application at this point so
that it writes your config file to disk. There's a serious crashing bug,
and if you trigger it, you'll lose your input bindings.
Now the really annoying part ... go to Library->{System} and pick the
game you want to play. Right now, there's a ~50% chance the application
will bomb. It seems the hiro::pListView object is getting destroyed, yet
somehow the internal Cocoa callbacks are being triggered anyway. I don't
know how this is possible, and my attempts to debug with lldb have been
a failure :(
If you're unlucky, the application will crash. Restart and try again. If
it crashes every single time, then you can try launching your game from
the command-line instead. Example:
open /Applications/higan.app \
--args ~/Emulation/Super\ Famicom/Zelda3.sfc/
Help wanted:
I could really, really, really use some help with that crashing on game
loading. There's a lot of rough edges, but they're all cosmetic. This
one thing is pretty much the only major show-stopping issue at the
moment, preventing a wider general audience pre-compiled binary preview.
