- reset scheduler savestate to what it was for years before rewind
-- changing saved variables should be done after thorough testing. right now, adding some vars breaks some machines, adding other vars breaks others
- switch to megabyte-wise capacity
-- savestate size greatly differs between machines, relying on state count is unstable
- switch to internal indexing
-- no longer depends on inaccurate machine time
- rewind accelerator key in debugger (Ctrl+F11)
- report capacity hit (once), with some useful info
- make error reports saner
- mention rewind and rewind_capacity in the docs
Disassemblers are now independant classes. Not only the code is
cleaner, but unidasm has access to all the cpu cores again. The
interface to the disassembly method has changed from byte buffers to
objects that give a result to read methods. This also adds support
for lfsr and/or paged PCs.
- memory_translate now returns an address space number rather a boolean flag, permitting addresses in part of one space to map to an entirely different space. This is primarily intended to help MCUs which have blocks of internal memory that can be dynamically remapped, but may also allow for more accurate emulation of MMUs that drive multiple external address spaces, since the old limit of four address spaces per MAME device has been lifted.
- memory_translate has also been made a const method, in spite of a couple of badly behaved CPU cores that can't honestly treat it as one.
- The (read|write)_(byte|word|dword|qword|memory|opcode) accessors have been transferred from debugger_cpu to device_memory_interface, with somewhat modified arguments corresponding to the translate function it calls through to if requested.
- removed -antialias option (does not exist anymore)
- added missing -vector_beam_smooth option
- fixed suggested default values for -bloom_lvl_weights options (were messed up in the last update)
This change adds id() property to input_device, which represents the
unique device id. This allows the osd layer when creating a device to
pass a friendly display name along with a unique identifier.
Currently the device id is only used to map a physical controller device
to controller id, but can be used more generally in the future. For raw
input devices, we use the full raw input name as the device id. For all
other devices, we fall back to device name as the device id. The
"uniqueness" of the device id is not currently enforced in code.
This change adds support for configuring device to conrtoller id. This
allows for stable controller ids even if USB devices are plugged /
unplugged, system is rebooted, etc.
See documentation for additional context.
