Update to bsnes v107.1 release.
byuu says:
Don't let the point release fool you, there are many significant changes in this
release. I will be keeping bsnes releases using a point system until the new
higan release is ready.
Changelog:
- GUI: added high DPI support
- GUI: fixed the state manager image preview
- Windows: added a new waveOut driver with support for dynamic rate control
- Windows: corrected the XAudio 2.1 dynamic rate control support [BearOso]
- Windows: corrected the Direct3D 9.0 fullscreen exclusive window centering
- Windows: fixed XInput controller support on Windows 10
- SFC: added high-level emulation for the DSP1, DSP2, DSP4, ST010, and Cx4
coprocessors
- SFC: fixed a slight rendering glitch in the intro to Megalomania
If the coprocessor firmware is missing, bsnes will fallback on HLE where it is
supported, which is everything other than SD Gundam GX and the two Hayazashi
Nidan Morita Shougi games.
The Windows dynamic rate control works best with Direct3D in fullscreen
exclusive mode. I recommend the waveOut driver over the XAudio 2.1 driver, as it
is not possible to target a single XAudio2 version on all Windows OS releases.
The waveOut driver should work everywhere out of the box.
Note that with DRC, the synchronization source is your monitor, so you will
want to be running at 60hz (NTSC) or 50hz (PAL). If you have an adaptive sync
monitor, you should instead use the WASAPI (exclusive) or ASIO audio driver.

Update to 20180809 release.
byuu says: The Windows port can now run the emulation while navigating menus, moving windows, and resizing windows. The main window also doesn't try so hard to constantly clear itself. This may leave a bit of unwelcome residue behind in some video drivers during resize, but under most drivers, it lets you resize without a huge amount of flickering. On all platforms, I now also run the emulation during MessageWindow modal events, where I didn't before. I'm thinking we should probably mute the audio during modal periods, since it can generate a good deal of distortion. The tooltip timeout was increased to ten seconds. On Windows, the enter key can now activate buttons, so you can more quickly dismiss MessageDialog windows. This part may not actually work ... I'm in the middle of trying to get messages out of the global `Application_windowProc` hook and into the individual `Widget_windowProc` hooks, so I need to do some testing. I fixed a bug where changing the input driver wouldn't immediately reload the input/hotkey settings lists properly. I also went from disabling the driver "Change" button when the currently active driver is selected in the list, to instead setting it to say "Reload", and I also added a tool tip to the input driver reload button, advising that if you're using DirectInput or SDL, you can hit "Reload" to rescan for hotplugged gamepads without needing to restart the emulator. XInput and udev have auto hotswap support. If we can ever get that into DirectInput and SDL, then I'll remove the tooltip. But regardless, the reload functionality is nice to have for all drivers. I'm not sure what should happen when a user changes their driver selection while a game is loaded, gets the warning dialog, chooses not to change it, and then closes the emulator. Currently, it will make the change happen the next time you start the emulator. This feels a bit unexpected, but when you change the selection without a game loaded, it takes immediate effect. So I'm not really sure what's best here. |

Update to 20180729 release.
byuu wrote: Sigh ... asio.hpp needs #include <nall/windows/registry.hpp> [Since the last WIP, byuu also posted the following message. -Ed.] ruby drivers have all been updated (but not tested outside of BSD), and I redesigned the settings window. The driver functionality all exists on a new "Drivers" panel, the emulator/hack settings go to a "Configuration" panel, and the video/audio panels lose driver settings. As does the settings menu and its synchronize options. I want to start pushing toward a v107 release. Critically, I will need DirectSound and ALSA to support dynamic rate control. I'd also like to eliminate the other system manifest.bml files. I need to update the cheat code database format, and bundle at least a few quark shaders -- although I still need to default to Direct3D on Windows. Turbo keys would be nice, if it's not too much effort. Aside from netplay, it's the last significant feature I'm missing. I think for v107, higan is going to be a bit rough around the edges compared to bsnes. And I don't think it's practical to finish the bsnes localization support. I'm thinking we probably want another WIP to iron out any critical issues, but this time there should be a feature freeze with the next WIP. |

Update to v106r48 release.
byuu says:
The problems with the Windows and Qt4 ports have all been resolved,
although there's a fairly gross hack on a few Qt widgets to not destruct
once Application::quit() is called to avoid a double free crash (I'm
unsure where Qt is destructing the widgets internally.) The Cocoa port
compiles again at least, though it's bound to have endless problems. I
improved the Label painting in the GTK ports, which fixes the background
color on labels inside TabFrame widgets.
I've optimized the Makefile system even further.
I added a "redo state" command to bsnes, which is created whenever you
load the undo state. There are also hotkeys for both now, although I
don't think they're really something you want to map hotkeys to.
I moved the nall::Locale object inside hiro::Application, so that it can
be used to translate the BrowserDialog and MessageDialog window strings.
I improved the Super Game Boy emulation of `MLT_REQ`, fixing Pokemon
Yellow's custom border and probably more stuff.
Lots of other small fixes and improvements. Things are finally stable
once again after the harrowing layout redesign catastrophe.
Errata:
- ICD::joypID should be set to 3 on reset(). joypWrite() may as well
take uint1 instead of bool.
- hiro/Qt: remove pWindow::setMaximumSize() comment; found a
workaround for it
- nall/GNUmakefile: don't set object.path if it's already set (allow
overrides before including the file)

Update to v106r47 release.
byuu says:
This is probably the largest code-change diff I've done in years.
I spent four days working 10-16 hours a day reworking layouts in hiro
completely.
The result is we now have TableLayout, which will allow for better
horizontal+vertical combined alignment.
Windows, GTK2, and now GTK3 are fully supported.
Windows is getting the initial window geometry wrong by a bit.
GTK2 and GTK3 work perfectly. I basically abandoned trying to detect
resize signals, and instead keep a list of all hiro windows that are
allocated, and every time the main loop runs, it will query all of them
to see if they've been resized. I'm disgusted that I have to do this,
but after fighting with GTK for years, I'm about sick of it. GTK was
doing this crazy thing where it would trigger another size-allocate
inside of a previous size-allocate, and so my layouts would be halfway
through resizing all the widgets, and then the size-allocate would kick
off another one. That would end up leaving the rest of the first layout
loop with bad widget sizes. And if I detected a second re-entry and
blocked it, then the entire window would end up with the older geometry.
I started trying to build a message queue system to allow the second
layout resize to occur after the first one completed, but this was just
too much madness, so I went with the simpler solution.
Qt4 has some geometry problems, and doesn't show tab frame layouts
properly yet.
Qt5 causes an ICE error and tanks my entire Xorg display server, so ...
something is seriously wrong there, and it's not hiro's fault. Creating
a dummy Qt5 application without even using hiro, just int main() {
TestObject object; } with object performing a dynamic\_cast to a derived
type segfaults. Memory is getting corrupted where GCC allocates the
vtables for classes, just by linking in Qt. Could be somehow related to
the -fPIC requirement that only Qt5 has ... could just be that FreeBSD
10.1 has a buggy implementation of Qt5. I don't know. It's beyond my
ability to debug, so this one's going to stay broken.
The Cocoa port is busted. I'll fix it up to compile again, but that's
about all I'm going to do.
Many optimizations mean bsnes and higan open faster. GTK2 and GTK3 both
resize windows very quickly now.
higan crashes when you load a game, so that's not good. bsnes works
though.
bsnes also has the start of a localization engine now. Still a long way
to go.
The makefiles received a rather substantial restructuring. Including the
ruby and hiro makefiles will add the necessary compilation rules for
you, which also means that moc will run for the qt4 and qt5 targets, and
windres will run for the Windows targets.

Update to v103r13 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- gb/interface: fix Game Boy Color extension to be "gbc" and not "gb"
[hex\_usr]
- ms/interface: move Master System hardware controls below controller
ports
- sfc/ppu: improve latching behavior of BGnHOFS registers (not
hardware verified) [AWJ]
- tomoko/input: rework port/device mapping to support non-sequential
ports and devices¹
- todo: should add move() to inputDevice.mappings.append and
inputPort.devices.append
- note: there's a weird GCC 4.9 bug with brace initialization of
InputEmulator; have to assign each field separately
- tomoko: all windows sans the main presentation window can be
dismissed with the escape key
- icarus: the single file selection dialog ("Load ROM Image...") can
be dismissed with the escape key
- tomoko: do not pause emulation when FocusLoss/Pause is set during
exclusive fullscreen mode
- hiro/(windows,gtk,qt): implemented Window::setDismissable() function
(missing from cocoa port, sorry)
- nall/string: fixed printing of largest possible negative numbers (eg
`INT_MIN`) [Sintendo]
- only took eight months! :D
¹: When I tried to move the Master System hardware port below the
controller ports, I ran into a world of pain.
The input settings list expects every item in the
`InputEmulator<InputPort<InputDevice<InputMapping>>>>` arrays to be
populated with valid results. But these would be sparsely populated
based on the port and device IDs from inside higan. And that is done so
that the Interface::inputPoll can have O(1) lookup of ports and devices.
This worked because all the port and device IDs were sequential (they
left no gaps in the maps upon creating the lists.)
Unfortunately by changing the expectation of port ID to how it appears
in the list, inputs would not poll correctly. By leaving them alone and
just moving Hardware to the third position, the Game Gear would be
missing port IDs of 0 and 1 (the controller ports of the Master System).
Even by trying to make separate MasterSystemHardware and
GameGearHardware ports, things still fractured when the devices were no
longer contigious.
I got pretty sick of this and just decided to give up on O(1)
port/device lookup, and moved to O(n) lookup. It only knocked the
framerate down by maybe one frame per second, enough to be in the margin
of error. Inputs aren't polled *that* often for loops that usually
terminate after 1-2 cycles to be too detrimental to performance.
So the new input system now allows non-sequential port and device IDs.
Remember that I killed input IDs a while back. There's never any reason
for those to need IDs ... it was easier to just order the inputs in the
order you want to see them in the user interface. So the input lookup is
still O(1). Only now, everything's safer and I return a
maybe<InputMapping&>, and won't crash out the program trying to use a
mapping that isn't found for some reason.
Errata: the escape key isn't working on the browser/message dialogs on
Windows, because of course nothing can ever just be easy and work for
me. If anyone else wouldn't mind looking into that, I'd greatly
appreciate it.
Having the `WM_KEYDOWN` test inside the main `Application_sharedProc`, it
seems to not respond to the escape key on modal dialogs. If I put the
`WM_KEYDOWN` test in the main window proc, then it doesn't seem to get
called for `VK_ESCAPE` at all, and doesn't get called period for modal
windows. So I'm at a loss and it's past 4AM here >_>

Update to v094r43 release.
byuu says:
Updated to compile with all of the new hiro changes. My next step is to
write up hiro API documentation, and move the API from alpha (constantly
changing) to beta (rarely changing), in preparation for the first stable
release (backward-compatible changes only.)
Added "--fullscreen" command-line option. I like this over
a configuration file option. Lets you use the emulator in both modes
without having to modify the config file each time.
Also enhanced the command-line game loading. You can now use any of
these methods:
higan /path/to/game-folder.sfc
higan /path/to/game-folder.sfc/
higan /path/to/game-folder.sfc/program.rom
The idea is to support launchers that insist on loading files only.
Technically, the file can be any name (manifest.bml also works); the
only criteria is that the file actually exists and is a file, and not
a directory. This is a requirement to support the first version (a
directory lacking the trailing / identifier), because I don't want my
nall::string class to query the file system to determine if the string
is an actual existing file or directory for its pathname() / dirname()
functions.
Anyway, every game folder I've made so far has program.rom, and that's
very unlikely to change, so this should be fine.
Now, of course, if you drop a regular "game.sfc" file on the emulator,
it won't even try to load it, unless it's in a folder that ends in .fc,
.sfc, etc. In which case, it'll bail out immediately by being unable to
produce a manifest for what is obviously not really a game folder.

Update to v094r26 release (open beta).
byuu says: Obviously, this is a fairly major WIP. It's the first public release in 17 months. The entire UI has been rewritten (for the 74th time), and is now internally called tomoko. The official releases will be named higan (both the binaries and title bar.) Missing features from v094: - ananke is missing (this means you will need v094 to create game folders to be loaded) - key assignments are limited to one physical button = one mapping (no multi-mapping) - shader support is missing - audio/video profiling is missing - DIP switch window is missing (used by NSS Actraiser with a special manifest; that's about it) - alternate paths for game system folders and configuration BML files There's some new stuff, but not much. This isn't going to be an exciting WIP in terms of features. It's more about being a brand new release with the brand new hiro port and its shared memory model. The goal is to get these WIPs stable, get v095 out, and then finally start improving the actual emulation again after that. |

Update to v094r25 release.
byuu says: Windows port should run mostly well now, although exiting fullscreen breaks the application in a really bizarre way. (clicking on the window makes it sink to background rather than come to the foreground o_O) I also need to add the doModalChange => audio.clear() thing for the accursed menu stuttering with DirectSound. I also finished porting all of the ruby drivers over to the newer API changes from nall. Since I can't compile the Linux or OS X drivers, I have no idea if there are any typos that will result in compilation errors. If so, please let me know where they're at and I'll try and fix them. If they're simple, please try and fix them on your end to test further if you can. I'm hopeful the udev crash will be gone now that nall::string checks for null char* values passed to its stringify function. Of course, it's a problem it's getting a null value in the first place, so it may not work at all. If you can compile on Linux (or by some miracle, OS X), please test each video/audio/input driver if you don't mind, to make sure there's no "compiles okay but still typos exist" bugs. |

Update to v094r24 release.
byuu says: Finally!! Compilation works once again on Windows. However, it's pretty buggy. Modality isn't really working right, you can still poke at other windows, but when you select ListView items, they redraw as empty boxes (need to process WM_DRAWITEM before checking modality.) The program crashes when you close it (probably a ruby driver's term() function, that's what it usually is.) The Layout::setEnabled(false) call isn't working right, so you get that annoying chiming sound and cursor movement when mapping keyboard keys to game inputs. The column sizing seems off a bit on first display for the Hotkeys tab. And probably lots more. |
