Update to v104r06 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- gba,ws: removed Thread::step() override¹
- processor/m68k: move.b (a7)+ and move.b (a7)- adjust a7 by two, not
by one²
- tomoko: created new initialize(Video,Audio,Input)Driver() functions³
- ruby/audio: split Audio::information into
Audio::available(Devices,Frequencies,Latencies,Channels)³
- ws: added Model::(WonderSwan,WonderSwanColor,SwanCrystal)()
functions for consistency with other cores
¹: this should hopefully fix GBA Pokemon Pinball. Thanks to
SuperMikeMan for pointing out the underlying cause.
²: this fixes A Ressaha de Ikou, Mega Bomberman, and probably more
games.
³: this is the big change: so there was a problem with WASAPI where
you might change your device under the audio settings panel. And your
new device may not support the frequency that your old device used. This
would end up not updating the frequency, and the pitch would be
distorted.
The old Audio::information() couldn't tell you what frequencies,
latencies, or channels were available for all devices simultaneously, so
I had to split them up. The new initializeAudioDriver() function
validates you have a correct driver, or it defaults to none. Then it
validates a correct device name, or it defaults to the first entry in
the list. Then it validates a correct frequency, or defaults to the
first in the list. Then finally it validates a correct latency, or
defaults to the first in the list.
In this way ... we have a clear path now with no API changes required to
select default devices, frequencies, latencies, channel counts: they
need to be the first items in their respective lists.
So, what we need to do now is go through and for every audio driver that
enumerates devices, we need to make sure the default device gets added
to the top of the list. I'm ... not really sure how to do this with most
drivers, so this is definitely going to take some time.
Also, when you change a device, initializeAudioDriver() is called again,
so if it's a bad device, it will disable the audio driver instead of
continuing to send samples at it and hoping that the driver blocked
those API calls when it failed to initialize properly.
Now then ... since it was a decently-sized API change, it's possible
I've broken compilation of the Linux drivers, so please report any
compilation errors so that I can fix them.

Update to v103r18 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- tomoko: improved handling of changing audio devices on the audio
settings panel
- ruby/audio/wasapi: added device enumeration and selection support¹
- ruby/audio/wasapi: release property store handle from audio device
- ruby/audio/wasapi: fix exclusive mode buffer filling
- ruby/video/glx2: ported to new API -- tested and confirmed working
great²
- ruby/video/sdl: fixed initialization -- tested and confirmed working
on FreeBSD now³
- ruby/video/xv: ported to new API -- tested and mostly working great,
sans fullscreen mode⁴
Errata:
- accidentally changed "Driver Settings" label to "Driver" on the
audio settings tab because I deleted the line and forgot the
"Settings" part
- need to use "return initialize();" from setDevice() in the WASAPI
driver, instead of "return true;", so device selection is currently
not functioning in this WIP for said driver
¹: for now, this will likely end up selecting the first available
endpoint device, which is probably wrong. I need to come up with a
system to expose good 'default values' when selecting new audio drivers,
or changing audio device settings.
²: glx2 is a fallback driver for system with only OpenGL 2.0 and no
OpenGL 3.2 drivers, such as FreeBSD 10.1 with AMD graphics cards.
³: although I really should track down why InputManager::poll() is
crashing the emulator when Video::ready() returns false ...
⁴: really bizarrely, when entering fullscreen mode, it looks like the
image was a triangle strip, and the bottom right triange is missing, and
the top left triangle skews the entire image into it. I'm suspecting
this is a Radeon driver bug when trying to create a 2560x1600 X-Video
surface. The glitch persists when exiting fullscreen, too.
If anyone can test the X-Video driver on their Linux/BSD system, it'd be
appreciated. If it's just my video card, I'll ignore it. If not,
hopefully someone can find the cause of the issue :|

Update to v103r16 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- emulator/audio: added the ability to change the output frequency at
run-time without emulator reset
- tomoko: display video synchronize option again¹
- tomoko: Settings→Configuration expanded to Settings→{Video,
Audio, Input, Hotkey, Advanced} Settings²
- tomoko: fix default population of audio settings tab
- ruby: Audio::frequency is a double now (to match both
Emulator::Audio and ASIO)³
- tomoko: changing the audio device will repopulate the frequency and
latency lists
- tomoko: changing the audio frequency can now be done in real-time
- ruby/audio/asio: added missing device() information, so devices can
be changed now
- ruby/audio/openal: ported to new API; added device selection support
- ruby/audio/wasapi: ported to new API, but did not test yet (it's
assuredly still broken)⁴
¹: I'm uneasy about this ... but, I guess if people want to disable
audio and just have smooth scrolling video ... so be it. With
Screwtape's documentation, hopefully that'll help people understand that
video synchronization always breaks audio synchronization. I may change
this to a child menu that lets you pick between {no synchronization,
video synchronization, audio synchronization} as a radio selection.
²: given how much more useful the video and audio tabs are now, I
felt that four extra menu items were worth saving a click and going
right to the tab you want. This also matches the behavior of the Tools
menu displaying all tool options and taking you directly to each tab.
This is kind of a hard change to get used to ... but I think it's for
the better.
³: kind of stupid because I've never seen a hardware sound card where
floor(frequency) != frequency, but whatever. Yay consistency.
⁴: I'm going to move it to be event-driven, and try to support 24-bit
sample formats if possible. Who knows which cards that'll fix and which
cards that'll break. I may end up making multiple WASAPI drivers so
people can find one that actually works for them. We'll see.

Update to v103r15 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- ruby: rewrote the API interfaces for Video, Audio, Input
- ruby/audio: can now select the number of output channels (not useful
to higan, sorry)
- ruby/asio: various improvements
- tomoko: audio settings panel can now select separate audio devices
(for ASIO, OSS so far)
- tomoko: audio settings panel frequency and latency lists are
dynamically populated now
Note: due to the ruby API rewrite, most drivers will not compile. Right
now, the following work:
- video: Direct3D, XShm
- audio: ASIO, OSS
- input: Windows, SDL, Xlib
It takes a really long time to rewrite these (six hours to do the
above), so it's going to be a while before we're back at 100%
functionality again.
Errata:
- ASIO needs device(), setDevice()
- need to call setDevice() at program startup to populate
frequency/latency settings properly
- changing the device and/or frequency needs to update the emulator
resampler rates
The really hard part is going to be the last one: the only way to change
the emulator frequency is to flush all the audio streams and then
recompute all the coefficients for the resamplers. If this is called
during emulation, all audio streams will be erased and thus no sound
will be output. I'll most likely be forced to simply ignore
device/frequency changes until the user loads another game. It is at
least possible to toggle the latency dynamically.

Update to v103r12 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- ruby/video: cleaned up Direct3D9 driver and fixed catastrophic
memory leak
- ruby/video: added fullscreen exclusive mode support to the Direct3D9
driver¹
- ruby/video: minor cosmetic code cleanups to various drivers
- tomoko: added support to always allow input when in fullscreen
exclusive mode
- tomoko: fixed window to not remove resizability flag when exiting
fullscreen mode
¹: I am assuming that exclusive mode will try to capture the primary
monitor. I don't know what will happen in multi-monitor setups, however,
as I don't use such a setup here.
Also, I am using `D3DPRESENT_DISCARD` instead of `D3DPRESENT_FLIP`. I'm
not sure if this will prove better or worse, but I've heard it will
waste less memory, and having a BackBufferCount of 1 should still result
in page flipping anyway. The difference is supposedly just that you
can't rely on the back buffer being a valid copy of the previous frame
like you can with FLIP.
Lastly, if you want Vsync, you can edit the configuration file to enable
that, and then turn off audio sync.
Errata: "pause emulation when focus is lost" is not working with
exclusive mode. I need to add a check to never auto-pause when in
exclusive mode. Thanks to bun for catching that one.

Update to v103r11 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- tomoko: removed "Settings→Video Emulation→Overscan Mask" setting¹
- tomoko: remove a few unnecessary calls to resizeViewport on startup
- tomoko: only resize main window from video settings when in adaptive
or toggling adaptive mode²
- hiro/windows: add `SWP_NOACTIVATE` flag to prevent focus stealing on
resizing invisible windows³
- hiro/windows: suppress spurious API-generated `onSize()` callback
when calling `setVisible()`
¹: it just seemed like bad design to default to overscan masking
being disabled with overscan masks of 8 horizontal, 8 vertical out of
the box. Users would adjust the sliders and not see anything happening.
Instead, I've set the default masks to zero. If you want to turn off
overscan masking, simply slide those to zero again.
²: I figure the only way we're going to be able to fairly evaluate
Screwtape's suggestion is to try it both ways. And I will admit, I kind
of like the way this works as well ... a lot more so than I thought I
would, so I think it was a great suggestion. Still, now's the time if
people have strong opinions on this. Be sure to try both r10 and r11 to
compare. Barring no other feedback, I'm going to keep it this way.
³: this fixes the blinking of the main window on startup.
Screwtape, thanks again for the improvement suggestions. At this point
though, I am not using a tiling window manager. If you are able to patch
hiro/gtk and/or hiro/qt (I mostly use GTK) to work with tiling window
managers better, I wouldn't mind applying said patches, so long as they
don't break things on my own Xfce desktop with xfwm4.
Also, I noticed one issue with Xfce ... if the window is maximized and I
try to call `Window::setSize()`, it's not actually removing the maximize
flag. We'll need to look into how to add that to GTK, but I don't think
it's a huge issue. A similar glitch happens on windows where the icon
still reflects being maximized, but it does actually shrink, it just
sticks to the top left corner of the screen. So this isn't really a
critical bug, but would be extra polish.

Update to v103r10 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- tomoko: video scaling options are now resolutions in the
configuration file, eg "640x480", "960x720", "1280x960"
- tomoko: main window is now always resizable instead of fixed width
(also supports maximizing)
- tomoko: added support for non-integral scaling in windowed mode
- tomoko: made the quick/managed state messaging more consistent
- tomoko: hide "Find Codes ..." button from the cheat editor window if
the cheat database is not present
- tomoko: per-game cheats.bml file now goes into the higan/ subfolder
instead of the root folder
So the way the new video system works is you have the following options
on the video settings panel:
Windowed mode: { Aspect correction, Integral scaling, Adaptive }
Fullscreen mode: { Aspect correction, Integral scaling } (and one day,
hopefully Exclusive will be added here)
Whenever you adjust the overscan masking, or you change any of the
windowed or fullscreen mode settings, or you choose a different video
scale from the main menu, or you load a new game, or you unload a game,
or you rotate the display of an emulated system, the resizeViewport
logic will be invoked. This logic will remember the last option you
chose for video scale, and base the new window size on that value as an
upper limit of the new window size.
If you are in windowed mode and have adaptive enabled, it will shrink
the window to fit the contents of the emulated system's video output.
Otherwise, if you are not in integral scaling mode, it will scale the
video as large as possible to fit into the video scaled size you have
selected. Otherwise, it will perform an integral scale and center the
video inside of the viewport.
If you are in fullscreen mode, it's much the same, only there is no
adaptive mode.
A major problem with Xorg is that it's basically impossible to change
the resizability attribute of a window post-creation. You can do it, but
all kinds of crazy issues start popping up. Like if you toggle
fullscreen, then you'll find that the window won't grow past a certain
fairly small size that it's already at, and cannot be shrunk. And the
multipliers will stop expanding the window as large as they should. And
sometimes the UI elements won't be placed in the correct position, or
the video will draw over them. It's a big mess. So I have to keep the
main window always resizable. Also, note that this is not a limitation
of hiro. It's just totally broken in Xorg itself. No amount of fiddling
has ever allowed this to work reliably for me on either GTK+ 2 or Qt 4.
So what this means is ... the adaptive mode window is also resizable.
What happens here is, whenever you drag the corners of the main window
to resize it, or toggle the maximize window button, higan will bypass
the video scale resizing code and instead act as though the adaptive
scaling mode were disabled. So if integral scaling is checked, it'll
begin scaling in integral mode. Otherwise, it'll begin scaling in
non-integral mode.
And because of this flexibility, it no longer made sense for the video
scale menu to be a radio box. I know, it sucks to not see what the
active selection is anymore, but ... say you set the scale to small,
then you accidentally resized the window a little, but want it snapped
back to the proper small resolution dimensions. If it were a radio item,
you couldn't reselect the same option again, because it's already active
and events don't propagate in said case. By turning them into regular
menu options, the video scale menu can be used to restore window sizing.
Errata:
On Windows, the main window blinks a few times on first load. The fix
for that is a safeguard in the video settings code, roughly like so ...
but note you'd need to make a few other changes for this to work against
v103r10:
auto VideoSettings::updateViewport(bool firstRun) -> void {
settings["Video/Overscan/Horizontal"].setValue(horizontalMaskSlider.position());
settings["Video/Overscan/Vertical"].setValue(verticalMaskSlider.position());
settings["Video/Windowed/AspectCorrection"].setValue(windowedModeAspectCorrection.checked());
settings["Video/Windowed/IntegralScaling"].setValue(windowedModeIntegralScaling.checked());
settings["Video/Windowed/AdaptiveSizing"].setValue(windowedModeAdaptiveSizing.checked());
settings["Video/Fullscreen/AspectCorrection"].setValue(fullscreenModeAspectCorrection.checked());
settings["Video/Fullscreen/IntegralScaling"].setValue(fullscreenModeIntegralScaling.checked());
horizontalMaskValue.setText({horizontalMaskSlider.position()});
verticalMaskValue.setText({verticalMaskSlider.position()});
if(!firstRun) presentation->resizeViewport();
}
That'll get it down to one blink, as with v103 official. Not sure I can
eliminate that one extra blink.
I forgot to remove the setResizable toggle on fullscreen mode exit. On
Windows, the main window will end up unresizable after toggling
fullscreen. I missed that one because like I said, toggling resizability
is totally broken on Xorg. You can fix that with the below change:
auto Presentation::toggleFullScreen() -> void {
if(!fullScreen()) {
menuBar.setVisible(false);
statusBar.setVisible(false);
//setResizable(true);
setFullScreen(true);
if(!input->acquired()) input->acquire();
} else {
if(input->acquired()) input->release();
setFullScreen(false);
//setResizable(false);
menuBar.setVisible(true);
statusBar.setVisible(settings["UserInterface/ShowStatusBar"].boolean());
}
resizeViewport();
}
Windows is stealing focus on calls to resizeViewport(), so we need to
deal with that somehow ...
I'm not really concerned about the behavior of shrinking the viewport
below the smallest multiplier for a given system. It might make sense to
snap it to the window size and forego all other scaling, but honestly
... meh. I don't really care. Nobody sane is going to play like that.

Update to v103r09 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- gba/apu: fixed wave RAM nibble ordering (fixes audio in Castlevania,
PocketNES)
- emulator: restructured video information to just a single
videoResolution() → VideoResolution function
- returns "projected size" (between 160x144 and 320x240)
- "internal buffer size" (up to 1280x480)
- returns aspect correction multiplier that is to be applied to
the width field
- the value could be < 1.0 to handle systems with taller
pixels; although higan doesn't emulate such a system
- tomoko: all calculations for scaling and overscan masking are done
by the GUI now
- tomoko: aspect correction can be enabled in either windowed or
fullscreen mode separately; moved to Video settings panel
- tomoko: video scaling multipliers (against 320x240) can now me
modified from the default (2,3,4) via the configuration file
- use this as a really barebones way of supporting high DPI
monitors; although the GUI elements won't scale nicely
- if you set a value less than two, or greater than your
resolution divided by 320x240, it's your own fault when things
blow up. I'm not babysitting anyone with advanced config-file
only options.
- tomoko: added new adaptive windowed mode
- when enabled, the window will shrink to eliminate any black
borders when loading a game or changing video settings. The
window will not reposition itself.
- tomoko: added new adaptive fullscreen mode
- when enabled, the integral scaling will be disabled for
fullscreen mode, forcing the video to fill at least one
direction of the video monitor completely.
I expect we will be bikeshedding for the next month on how to describe
the new video options, where they should appear in the GUI, changes
people want, etc ... but suffice to say, I'm happy with the
functionality, so I don't intend to make changes to -what- things do,
but I will entertain better ways to name things.

Update to v098r13 release.
byuu says: Changelog: - nall/dsp returns with new iir/biquad.hpp and resampler/cubic.hpp files - nall/queue.hpp added (simple ring buffer ... nall/vector wouldn't cause too many moves with FIFO) - audio streams now only buffer 20ms; so even if multiple audio streams desync, latency can never exceed 20ms - replaced blackman windwed sinc FIR hermite audio filter with transposed direct form II biquadratic sixth-order IIR butterworth filter (better attenuation of frequencies above 20KHz, faster, no need for decimation, less code) - put in experimental eight-tap echo filter (a lot better than what I had before, but still rather weak) - substantial cleanups to the SuperFX GSU processor core (slightly faster, 479KB->100KB object file, 42.7KB->33.4KB source code size, way less code duplication) We'll definitely want to test the whole SuperFX library (not many games) just to make sure there's no regressions caused by this one. Not sure what I want to do with audio processing effects yet. I've always really wanted lots of fun controls to customize audio, and now finally with this new biquad filter, I can finally start implementing real effects. For instance, an equalizer wouldn't be too complicated anymore. The new reverb effect is still a poor man's version. I need to find human readable source for implementing a comb-filter properly. I'm pretty sure I can already treat nall::queue as an all-pass filter since all that does is phase shift (fancy audio term for "delay audio"). What's really going to be hard is figuring out how to expose user-friendly settings for controlling it. It looks like you need a bunch of coprime coefficients, and I don't think casual users are going to be able to hand-enter coprime values to get the echo effect they want. I uh ... don't even know how to calculate coprime values dynamically right now >_> But we're going to have to, as they are correlated to the output sampling rate. We'll definitely want to make some audio profiles so that users can quickly select pre-configured themes that sound nice, but expose the underlying coefficients so that they can tweak stuff to their liking. This isn't just about higan, this is about me trying to learn digital signal processing, so please don't be too upset about feature creep or anything on this. Anyway ... I'm having some difficulties with my audio right now. When the reverb effect is enabled, there's a bunch of static on system reset for just a moment. But this should not be possible. nall::queue is initializing all previous reverb sample elements to 0.0. I don't understand where static is coming in from. Further, we have the same issue with both the windowed sinc and the biquad filters ... a bit of a popping sound when starting a game. Any help tracking this down would be appreciated. There's also one really annoying issue ... I can't seem to do reverb or volume adjustments with normalized samples. If I say "volume *= 0.5" in higan/audio/audio.cpp line 68, it doesn't just halve the volume, it adds a whole bunch of distortion. This makes absolutely zero sense to me. The sample values are between 0.0 (mute) and 1.0 (full volume) here, so multiplying a double by 0.5 shouldn't cause distortion. So right now, I'm doing these adjustments with less precision after denormalizing back to int16. Anyone ever see something like that? :/ |

byuu says: Changelog: - fixed major nall/vector/prepend bug - renamed hiro/ListView to hiro/TableView - added new hiro/ListView control which is a simplified abstraction of hiro/TableView - updated higan's cheat database window and icarus' scan dialog to use the new ListView control - compilation works once again on all platforms (Windows, Cocoa, GTK, Qt) - the loki skeleton compiles once again (removed nall/DSP references; updated port/device ID names) Small catch: need to capture layout resize events internally in Windows to call resizeColumns. For now, just resize the icarus window to get it to use the full window width for list view items. |

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.

Changelog:
- WS/WSC: re-added support for screen rotation (code is inside WS core)
- ruby: changed sample(uint16_t left, uint16_t right) to sample(int16_t
left, int16_t right);
- requires casting to uint prior to shifting in each driver, but
I felt it was misleading to use uint16_t just to avoid that
- ruby: WASAPI is now built in by default; has wareya's improvements,
and now supports latency adjust
- tomoko: audio settings panel has new "Exclusive Mode" checkbox for
WASAPI driver only
- note: although the setting *does* take effect in real-time, I'd
suggest restarting the emulator after changing it
- tomoko: audio latency can now be set to 0ms (which in reality means
"the minimum supported by the driver")
- all: increased cothread size from 512KiB to 2MiB to see if it fixes
bullshit AMD driver crashes
- this appears to cause a slight speed penalty due to cache locality
going down between threads, though

byuu says:
Changelog:
- SFC: balanced profile removed
- SFC: performance profile removed
- SFC: code for handling non-threaded CPU, SMP, DSP, PPU removed
- SFC: Coprocessor, Controller (and expansion port) shared Thread code
merged to SFC::Cothread
- Cothread here just means "Thread with CPU affinity" (couldn't think
of a better name, sorry)
- SFC: CPU now has vector<Thread*> coprocessors, peripherals;
- this is the beginning of work to allow expansion port devices to be
dynamically changed at run-time
- ruby: all audio drivers default to 48000hz instead of 22050hz now if
no frequency is assigned
- note: the WASAPI driver can default to whatever the native frequency
is; doesn't have to be 48000hz
- tomoko: removed the ability to change the frequency from the UI (but
it will display the frequency used)
- tomoko: removed the timing settings panel
- the goal is to work toward smooth video via adaptive sync
- the model is broken by not being in control of the audio frequency
anyway
- it's further broken by PAL running at 50hz and WSC running at 75hz
- it was always broken anyway by SNES interlace timing varying from
progressive timing
- higan: audio/ stub created (for now, it's just nall/dsp/ moved here
and included as a header)
- higan: video/ stub created
- higan/GNUmakefile: now includes build rules for essential components
(libco, emulator, audio, video)
The audio changes are in preparation to merge wareya's awesome WASAPI
work without the need for the nall/dsp resampler.

Note: balanced/performance profiles still broken, sorry.
Changelog:
- added nall/GNUmakefile unique() function; used on linking phase of
higan
- added nall/unique_pointer
- target-tomoko and {System}::Video updated to use
unique_pointer<ClassName> instead of ClassName* [1]
- locate() updated to search multiple paths [2]
- GB: pass gekkio's if_ie_registers and boot_hwio-G test ROMs
- FC, GB, GBA: merge video/ into the PPU cores
- ruby: fixed ~AudioXAudio2() typo
[1] I expected this to cause new crashes on exit due to changing the
order of destruction of objects (and deleting things that weren't
deleted before), but ... so far, so good. I guess we'll see what crops
up, especially on OS X (which is already crashing for unknown reasons on
exit.)
[2] right now, the search paths are: programpath(), {configpath(),
"higan/"}, {localpath(), "higan/"}; but we can add as many more as we
want, and we can also add platform-specific versions.

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 v096r03 release.
byuu says: Changelog: - fixed icarus to save settings properly - fixed higan's full screen toggle on OS X - increased "Add Codes" button width to avoid text clipping - implemented cocoa/canvas.cpp - added 1s delay after mapping inputs before re-enabling the window (wasn't actually necessary, but already added it) - fixed setEnabled(false) on Cocoa's ListView and TextEdit widgets - updated nall::programpath() to use GetModuleFileName on Windows - GB: system uses open collector logic, so unmapped reads return 0xFF, not 0x00 (passes blargg's cpu_instrs again) [gekkio] |

Update to v096r01 release.
byuu says: Changelog: - restructured the project and removed a whole bunch of old/dead directives from higan/GNUmakefile - huge amounts of work on hiro/cocoa (compiles but ~70% of the functionality is commented out) - fixed a masking error in my ARM CPU disassembler [Lioncash] - SFC: decided to change board cic=(411,413) back to board region=(ntsc,pal) ... the former was too obtuse If you rename Boolean (it's a problem with an include from ruby, not from hiro) and disable all the ruby drivers, you can compile an OS X binary, but obviously it's not going to do anything. It's a boring WIP, I just wanted to push out the project structure change now at the start of this WIP cycle. |
