<h2><a id="intro">Introduction</a></h2>
<p>
FCEUX was started in 2006 by zeromus and rheiny (sp) as an attempt to merge various branches
of FCE Ultra into a unified emulator. Additional authors joined the project, including
mz, adelikat, nitsujrehtona, maximus, CaH4e3, Sebastian Porst.
</p>
<p>
FCEUX contains all features and enhancements from FCE, FCE Ultra, FCEU rerecording,
FCEUXD, and FCEUXDSP as well as many new mappers from FCEU-mm
</p>
<p>
This document has been arranged to keep user interface details and emulation
details as separate as possible, though this has not been accomplished entirely.
</p>
<p>
In several places references are made to the "base directory". If you
are running a port on a UN*X-like system(Linux/*BSD/Mac OSX/SunOS/etc.), the
base directory is "~/.fceultra", or in other words,
"your home directory plus .fceultra". For all other ports(including DOS and
MS Windows), the base directory is the directory that the executable is in.
</p>
<hr />
<h2> <a id="intro-history">History of FCE Ultra</a></h2>
<p>
Bero originally wrote a NES emulator that was referred to as FCE.
This name was apparently meant only to serve as a temporary name,
but its usage remained. Xodnizel originally ported it to Linux SVGAlib,
and made a few improvements. This code base was abandoned, and work began anew,
under DOS, with the original FCE source code. At the end of November, 1998,
FCE Ultra Beta 1 was released.
</p>
<p>
FCE Ultra remained DOS-only until version 0.18, when it was ported to Linux SVGAlib,
and released as a statically-linked executable. The first MS Windows port was released as version 0.25.
</p>
<p>
The source code of 0.40 was released on November 12, 2000. It retained the simple license
of FCE for a long time, which stated that " This software is freeware. You can use it non-commercially."
Almost two years later, in June 2002, 0.80 was released, and FCE Ultra was re-licensed under the GNU GPL.
</p>
<p>
It has been tested (and runs) under DOS, Linux SVGAlib, Linux X, Mac OS X, and Windows. A native GUI
is provided for the Windows port, and the other ports use a command-line interface. The SDL port should
run on any modern UNIX-like operating system (such as FreeBSD, Solaris or IRIX) with no code changes.
It has also been ported to the GP2X, PlayStation Portable as PSPFceUltra, the Nintendo GameCube and Pepper Pad.
</p>
<p>
FCE Ultra was created by Xodnizel. Development appeared to stop and the homepage and forums for the emulator were taken down.
The last version before this was v0.98.13-pre, released in September 2004 as source-only. The last binary release was v0.98.12 in August 2004.
</p>
<p>
However, it was resurrected again in March of 2006 by Anthony Giorgio and Mark Doliner.
</p>
<p>
There is also a graphical frontend for FCE Ultra. GFCE Ultra is written in Python and uses the GTK2 user interface library.
Because is it written in Python and with portability in mind, it can be run on any UNIX-like platform and any processor architecture
that is supported by Python.
</p>
<h3> FCEU Rerecording</h3>
<p>
The "rerecording" version of FCE Ultra was implemented to FCE Ultra 0.98.10 with movie
recording support. This was done by blip, and was implemented for the purpose of creating
Tool-Assisted Speedruns.
</p>
<P>
The rerecording branch continued with 0.98.12, adding movie support features, such as "bullet proof"
recording. In 2006, FCEU 0.98.16 was implemented by nitsuja and luke. Various tools such as read-only toggling,
increased hotkey mapping, and memory watch were added.
</P>
<p>
In 2008, FCEU rerecording was picked up again by mz, maximus, adelikat, and nitsujrehtona with various updates
named FCEU.0.98.17 - 0.98.28
</p>
<h3>FCEUD/FCEUXD/FCEUXDSP</h3>
<p>
FCEUD
</p>
<p>
In 2002, Parasyte modified the then-current version (0.81.3) of FCE Ultra and added a Nesten-style
debugger, along with several other features, and named it "FCEUD" (FCE Ultra Debugger).
</p>
<p>
FCEUXD
</p>
<p>
In January 2004, bbitmaster began working on more features and called it "FCEUXD" (FCE Ultra Extended Debugger).
It is a branch of FCE Ultra that contains many extended debugging features compared to the original FCE Ultra code such as a trace logger, a built-in hex editor, a name table viewer, code/data logger, inline assembler, and Game Genie decoder/encoder in addition to the debugger and PPU viewer from FCEUD.
The last version made was FCEUXD 1.0a
</p>
<p>
<h3> FCEUXDSP stands for FCEUXD "SP" version and is a branch of FCEUXD 1.0a </h3>
</p>
<p>
It was created in 2006 by sp. The project extends the debugging tools even further compared to
FCEUXD by adding new tools, functions, and usability of debugging tools.
</p>
<p>
The last version of FCEUXDSP was 1.07 which adds a feature known as the RAM Filter.
</p>

<h2>
<a id="features">Core Features</a>
</h2>
<h3>
<a id="features-cpu">CPU</a>
</h3>
<p>
All official instructions of the NES' CPU, the 2A03, which is compatible(mostly)
with the 6502, are emulated. "Unofficial" instructions are also emulated,
though probably not as accurately as the more well-defined official instructions.
</p>
<hr />
<h3>
<a id="features-ppu">PPU</a>
</h3>
<p>
<ul>
<li>8x8 and 8x16 sprites.</li>
<li>Sprite hit emulation(including checking the bg color).</li>
<li>8 sprite limit(and flag emulation).</li>
<li>Screen/Sprite disabling, with correct color replacement.</li>
<li>Color deemphasis(probably not 100% correct, more research is needed).</li>
<li>Strip colorburst bit emulated.</li>
<li>CPU-instruction granularity for special mid-scanline effects(mostly CHR switching, such as
used in "Pirates!", "Marble Madness", and "Mother").</li>
</ul>
</p>
<h4><a id="features-ppu-palettes">Palettes</a></h4>
<p>
FCE Ultra has many palette features, including loading a custom palette
to replace the default NES palette. The palette from an NTSC NES can
also be generated on-the-fly.
</p>
<p>
First, a note on on the format of external palettes; Palette files are expected to contain 64 8-bit RGB triplets(each in
that order; red comes first in the triplet in the file, then green,
then blue). Each 8-bit value represents brightness for that particular
color. 0 is minimum, 255 is maximum.
</p>
<p>
Palettes can be set on a per-game basis. To do this, put a palette
file in the "gameinfo" directory with the same base filename
as the game you wish to associate with and add the extension "pal".
Examples:
<pre>
File name: Palette file name:
BigBad.nes BigBad.pal
BigBad.zip BigBad.pal
BigBad.Better.nes BigBad.Better.pal
</pre>
</p>
<p>
With so many ways to choose a palette, figuring out which one will
be active may be difficult. Here's a list of what palettes will
be used, in order from highest priority to least priority(if a
condition doesn't exist for a higher priority palette, the emulator
will continue down its list of palettes).
<ul>
<li>NSF Palette(for NSFs only)</li>
<li>Palette loaded from the "gameinfo" directory.</li>
<li>NTSC Color Emulation(only for NTSC NES games).</li>
<li>VS Unisystem palette(if the game is a VS Unisystem game and a palette is available).</li>
<li>Custom global palette.</li>
<li>Default NES palette. </li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
<hr />
<h3><a id="features-sound"<Sound</a></h3>
<p>
All 5 internal sound channels are supported(2x rectangle, triangle, noise,
and DMC/PCM). Sound channels are emulated with CPU instruction granularity.
There are two sound quality options. Low-quality sound, the default sound
quality option, generates sound data at 16x the playback rate and averages
those samples together to 1 sample. This method works fairly well and
is reasonably fast, but there is still some aliasing and sound distortion.
All sample rates between 8192Hz and 96000Hz are supported.
</p><p>
The high-quality sound emulation is much more CPU intensive, but the
quality is worth it, if your machine is fast enough. Sound data is
generated at the NES' CPU clock rate(about 1.8MHz for the NTSC NES), and
then resampled to the output sample rate. Custom-designed 483rd order
Parks-McClellan algorithm filter coefficients are used. Supported playback rates are
44100Hz, 48000Hz, and 96000Hz. The following filter statistics apply
for NTSC emulation.
<p>
<table border>
<tr><th>Rate:</th><th>Passband Upper Bound(Hz):</th><th>Passband ripple(dB):</th><th>Transition bandwidth(Hz):</th><th>Stopband attenuation(dB):</th></tr>
<tr><td>44100</td><td>11982.5</td><td>0.20</td><td>10067.5</td><td>66.4</td></tr>
<tr><td>48000</td><td>13932.5</td><td>0.10</td><td>10067.5</td><td>60.0</td></tr>
<tr><td>96000</td><td>30000.0</td><td>0.01</td><td>18000.0</td><td>103.0</td></tr>
</table>
</p>
<p>
The "highest" sound quality mode is similar to the normal high-quality mode,
but the filters are of a higher order(1024 coefficients). Ripple is
reduced, the upper bound of the passband is higher, and the stopband
attenuation is slightly higher. The highest-quality mode filter coefficients
were created using "gmeteor". The parameters used to create these filters
can be found in the source code distribution.
</p>
<p>
Besides the 5 internal NES sound channels, FCE Ultra emulates the extra
sound capabilities of the Konami VRCVI, Konami VRCVII, Namco 106, Nintendo MMC5, and the Sunsoft FME-07 chips. The extra sound
channel in the Famicom Disk System is also emulated, but the support for
its FM capabilities is limited.
</p>
<hr />
<h3><a id="features-input">Input</a></h3>
<p>
FCE Ultra emulates the standard NES gamepad, the Four-Score multiplayer
adapter, the Zapper, the Power Pad, and the Arkanoid controller. The
Famicom version of the Arkanoid controller, the "Space Shadow" gun, the
Famicom 4-player adapter, the Family Keyboard, the HyperShot controller, the Mahjong controller,
the Oeka Kids tablet, the Quiz King buzzers, the Family Trainer, and the Barcode World barcode
reader are also emulated.
</p>
<h4><a id="features-input-zapper">Zapper</a></h4>
<p>
Most Zapper NES games expect the Zapper to be plugged into port 2.
and most VS Unisystem games expect the Zapper to be plugged
into port 1.
</p><p>
The left mouse button is the emulated trigger button for the
Zapper. The right mouse button is also emulated as the trigger,
but as long as you have the right mouse button held down, no color
detection will take place, which is effectively like pulling the
trigger while the Zapper is pointed away from the television screen.
Note that you must hold the right button down for a short
time to have the desired effect.
</p>
<hr />
<h3><a id="features-expansion">File Formats/Expansion Hardware</a></h3>
<p>
FCE Ultra supports the iNES, FDS(raw and with a header), UNIF, and NSF file
formats. FDS ROM images in the iNES format are not supported; it would
be silly to do so and storing them in that format is nonsensical.
</p>
<p>
FCE Ultra supports loading ROM/disk images from some types of compressed files.
FCE Ultra can load data from both PKZIP-format files and
gzip-format files. Only the "deflate" algorithm is supported, but
this is the most widely used algorithm for these formats.
</p>
<p>
All files in a PKZIP format archive will be scanned for the
followings extensions: .nes, .fds, .nsf, .unf, .nez, .unif
The first archived file to have one of these extensions will be
loaded. If no archived file has one of these extensions, the
first archived file will be loaded.
</p>
<h4><a id="features-expansion-ines">iNES Format</a></h4>
<p>
The battery-backed RAM, vertical/horizontal mirroring, four-screen
name table layout, and 8-bit mapper number capabilities of the iNES
format are supported. The 512-byte trainer capability is also supported,
but it is deprecated. Common header corruption conditions are cleaned(let's
go on a DiskDude hunt), though not all conditions can be automatically
detected and fixed. In addition, a few common header inaccuracies for
games are also corrected(detected by CRC32 value). Note that these
fixes are not written back to the storage medium.
</p>
<p>
Support for the recent VS System bit and "number of 8kB RAM banks"
is not implemented. Too many iNES headers are corrupt where this new data
is stored, causing problems for those games.
</p>
<p>
The following table lists iNES-format "mappers" supported well in FCE Ultra.
</p><p>

<h4><a id="features-expansion-fds">Famicom Disk System</a></h4>
<p>
You will need the FDS BIOS ROM image in the base FCE Ultra directory.
It must be named "disksys.rom". FCE Ultra will not load FDS games
without this file.
</p>
Two types of FDS disk images are supported: disk images with the
FWNES-style header, and disk images with no header. The number
of sides on headerless disk images is calculated by the total file
size, so don't put extraneous data at the end of the file.
<p>
If a loaded disk image is written to during emulation, FCE Ultra will store the modified
disk image in the save games directory, which is by default "sav" under the base
directory.
</p>
<h4><a id="features-expansion-genie">Game Genie</a></h4>
<p>
The Game Genie ROM image is loaded from the file "gg.rom" in the
base directory the first time Game Genie emulation is enabled and
a ROM image is loaded since the time FCE Ultra has run.
</p><p>
The ROM image may either be the 24592 byte iNES-format image, or
the 4352 byte raw ROM image.
</p><p>
Remember that enabling/disabling Game Genie emulation will not take
effect until a new game is loaded(this statement shouldn't concern
any of the "run once" command-line driven builds).
</p>
<h4><a id="features-expansion-vs">VS Unisystem</a></h4>
<p>
FCE Ultra currently only supports VS Unisystem ROM images in the
iNES format. DIP switches and coin insertion are both emulated.
The following games are supported, and have palettes provided(though not
necessarily 100% accurate or complete):
<ul>
<li>Battle City</li>
<li>Castlevania</li>
<li>Clu Clu Land</li>
<li>Dr. Mario</li>
<li>Duck Hunt</li>
<li>Excitebike</li>

<li>Ice Climber</li>
<li>Ladies Golf</li>
<li>Mach Rider</li>

<li>Top Gun</li>

</p>
<h3><a id="features-ips">Automatic IPS Patching</a></h3>
<p>
Place the IPS file in the same directory as the file to load,
and name it filename.ips.
</p>
<pre>
Examples: Boat.nes - Boat.nes.ips
Boat.zip - Boat.zip.ips
Boat.nes.gz - Boat.nes.gz.ips
Boat - Boat.ips
</pre>
<p>
Some operating systems and environments will hide file extensions.
Keep this in mind if you are having trouble.
</p>
<p>
Patching is supported for all supported formats(iNES, FDS, UNIF, and
NSF), but it will probably only be useful for the iNES and FDS formats.
UNIF files can't be patched well with the IPS format because they are chunk-based
with no fixed offsets.
