Release History
|
||||
===============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
2.4.2 to 2.5: (March 28, 2008)
|
||||
|
||||
* Added RomInfo widget to the ROM launcher, which shows properties
|
||||
information and a snapshot of the currently selected ROM. Updated the UI
|
||||
and added '-romviewer' commandline argument to activate this setting.
|
||||
Note that the ROM launcher will have to be sized at least 640x480 for this
|
||||
to be used. Also note that the snapshots must be in 1x mode with a
|
||||
maximum size of 320x260. This will be expanded on in a future release.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added ROM audit functionality, whereby ROMs can be physically renamed
|
||||
according to their properties' name.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added bankswitching support for 0840, SB, X07 and 4A50. A special thanks
|
||||
to Eckhard Stolberg for much help in this area.
|
||||
|
||||
* Removed "non-browse" functionality from the ROM launcher; it now always
|
||||
uses browse/filesystem mode. The previous 'pretty' names can now be
|
||||
seen by renaming all your ROMs with the new ROM audit feature.
|
||||
|
||||
* Huge overhaul of controller handling and Stelladaptor support, making it
|
||||
much easier to add new controller types in a future release.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed paddle issues in Night Driver; paddle emulation speed should be
|
||||
much better.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed several 6507 emulation bugs related to BCD handling.
|
||||
|
||||
* Updated ROM properties based on info from RomHunter.
|
||||
|
||||
* ROM properties can now be edited from the ROM launcher; you no longer
|
||||
have to start a ROM to do so.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added support for configurable font to ROM launcher (currently only
|
||||
'small' and 'large'). Updated the UI and added -launcherfont' commandline
|
||||
argument to change this setting.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added SECAM, NTSC50, PAL60 and SECAM60 to the list of formats that can
|
||||
be used. Also, switching between these modes with 'Ctrl-f' now switches
|
||||
the palette only; the number of scanlines won't change.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed crash when switching between software and OpenGL mode with a
|
||||
Stelladaptor plugged in.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added '-tiafloat' commandline argument, which determines whether or not
|
||||
the TIA pins are in a 'floating' state. This is useful for testing on
|
||||
certain CMOS EPROM chips where the unused TIA pins on a read are not
|
||||
floating but pulled high.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed issue in debugger where once a .sym file was loaded, it was used
|
||||
in all ROMs loaded after that.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed issue in debugger where equate names weren't showing up in the RAM
|
||||
and CPU widgets. Note that this still isn't perfect, and needs support
|
||||
from DASM for proper functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
* Updated state file format, creating smaller files (and in preparation
|
||||
for state rewinding in a future release). Old state saves will no longer
|
||||
work.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added '-bs' commandline argument, which is an alias for '-type' (which
|
||||
is still present).
|
||||
|
||||
* Removed -pXspeed' commandline arguments, and replaced them with a
|
||||
single '-pspeed'.
|
||||
|
||||
* Removed '-paddle' commandline argument. The paddle currently emulated
|
||||
by the mouse can still be changed with Ctrl-0..3 or within the UI, but
|
||||
the setting is no longer saved.
|
||||
|
||||
* Reworked UI for specifying that the console ports have been swapped,
|
||||
hopefully making it easier to understand.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added 'Ctrl-c' & 'Ctrl-v' to EditTextWidgets, allowing to copy and paste
|
||||
the text widget contents. More work in this area is coming in a future
|
||||
release.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added 'Ctrl-leftarrow' and 'Ctrl-rightarrow' to EditTextWidgets, to move
|
||||
to the first character of previous and next words (respectively).
|
||||
|
||||
* For the Win32 port: fixed OpenGL crashes in Vista. Graphical updates
|
||||
are still slower in Vista compared to XP, though.
|
||||
|
||||
* For the Win32 port: default folder for Stella config files is now
|
||||
'My Documents\Stella'; this can be disabled if necessary. This should
|
||||
fix issues with losing settings when launching Stella from an IDE,
|
||||
and the creation of stella.ini and 'state' directories in many
|
||||
different places.
|
||||
|
||||
* For the Win32 port: several fixes to the Visual Studio project files,
|
||||
allowing building in debug or release mode, for both i386 and x86_64.
|
||||
The project files have been upgraded to Visual Studio 2008, and Stella
|
||||
can now be built and distributed without the VS runtime libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
* Updated configure script for cross-compiling Win32 version in Linux.

<a name="ROMInfo">9. Viewing ROM Info</a></h1>
|
||||
<hr>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Stella supports viewing snapshots and ROM properties of the currently
|
||||
selected ROM in the ROM launcher. Support is automatic, as long as your
|
||||
snapshot directory contains snapshots in the appropriate format. An
|
||||
archive of updated snapshots will be available on the Stella webpage.
|
||||
This archive may be updated periodically as new ROMs are found, and also
|
||||
for each new release of Stella.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Currently, there are several restrictions for this feature:</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Only 1x snapshots are supported (maximum size of 320x260). This
|
||||
means that if you generate your own snapshots, you'll have to switch
|
||||
to 1x zoom mode first before you save them.</li>
|
||||
<li>The ROM launcher window must be sized at least 640x480.</li>
|
||||
<li>The size of the ROM info viewer is tied to the current zoom level
|
||||
of the user interface. So, for example, if you wish to see snapshots
|
||||
in 2x mode, the minimum screen size to do so is 1280x960 (double the
|
||||
size of the minimum 640x480).</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Number three in particular is a problem for users with screenmodes
|
||||
smaller than 1280x960. Such users will only be able to view snapshots
|
||||
(and as a result the entire UI) in 1x mode. The problem is, in 1x mode,
|
||||
the ROM launcher font is usually illegibly small. Therefore, there's
|
||||
now support for changing the size of the ROM launcher font to compensate
|
||||
for this.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Note that most of these restrictions will be fixed in a future release,
|
||||
when the UI becomes completely font-sensitive and configurable, and the size
|
||||
of the ROM Info viewer will be configurable separately from the UI zoom level.
|
||||
To illustrate, the following snapshots show the ROM launcher in 1x and 2x
|
||||
mode:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>ROM Launcher in 1x mode, UI sized 800x480, small launcher font:</p>

||||

|

<hr>
|

|

<p>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Stella has the ability to rename all your ROMs according to the name
|
||||
specified in the properties database. This is useful if you've downloaded
|
||||
ROMs in DOS 8.3 naming format, and wish the filenames to be more descriptive,
|
||||
or the current filenames are too large to see in the launcher.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This feature is accessible from Options -> Audit ROMs, and is only
|
||||
available while in ROM launcher mode. The dialog box for this feature
|
||||
is as follows:</p>
|
||||
<img src="graphics/romaudit.png">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Simply select the ROM path with the 'Audit path' button, and click the
|
||||
'Audit' button. The ROMs will then be renamed according to their internal
|
||||
properties. When the operation is complete, the number of ROMs that were
|
||||
renamed (as well as ones that weren't) will be shown.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There are several items to take note of:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><b>THIS OPERATION CANNOT BE UNDONE</b>. I cannot stress this
|
||||
enough; if you aren't completely sure you want to rename your ROMs,
|
||||
don't use this function. There is no undo feature, and one won't be
|
||||
added.</li>
|
||||
<li>Only filenames that Stella considers to be valid ROMs will be
|
||||
considered. Currently, this means files that end in '.bin',
|
||||
'.rom', '.a26', '.zip' and '.gz'. Files which don't have these
|
||||
extensions will be ignored.</li>
|
||||
<li>If a valid ROM doesn't have a properties entry, it will be
|
||||
ignored.</li>

||||
