stephena b67625bfec Fixed scanline calculation when out-of-spec ROMS don't use VSYNC at all.
In this case, the frame runs to the limits of the virtual 'TV' (342 scanlines).

I hope to get back to Stella development soon, and do a new release
in perhaps the next month or so.

2012-09-27 22:17:27 +00:00
stephena faa78ad56a Added emulation of D6 (interrupt flag) to the Interrupt Flag register
of the RIOT chip.  This flag is related to the edge-detect circuitry, and
set on active transition of PA7 pin, cleared upon reading from TIMINT (but
only *after* its result is included in the TIMINT read).

stephena 21f25d1553 Added 64in1 and 128in1 multicart bankswitch schemes, although for
the latter you'll probably require the patience of Job.

stephena ed5aad268d Fixes for relative filename handling on the commandline
(more work required for Windows), and updated zlib to latest
version.

2012-06-07 13:29:56 +00:00
stephena 6353d118b7 Control-f now cycles between NTSC/PAL/SECAM/NTSC50/PAL60/SECAM60
display modes wrt both palette and display properties (# of scanlines,
size of window, etc).  This means you can now dynamically switch
between these modes at runtime.

Also added 'Shift-Control-f', which cycles through the modes in
reverse order.

stephena 9b8155b29d And so the cycle begins again. Fixed changelog so that lines don't
wrap when opening in the default text editor in OSX.  Yes, I *am*
that picky (OCD would probably be a better description).

Bumped version #.

stephena efb620dca8 Stella now requires Windows XP and above; support for Win98/ME/2K has
been removed.  Sorry to anyone still using these systems, but this
decision is final.  It's time to move on, folks.

2012-05-28 19:48:33 +00:00
stephena 01d8c298ae Added 'dis.relocate' commandline argument, which passes the
Distella '-r' option (Relocate calls out of address range) to
the disassembler core.  Also added UI item to dynamically
change the setting.

Renamed 'resolvedata', 'showaddr' and 'gfxformat' commandline
arguments to start with 'dis', indicating that they're part
of the disassembler.

2012-05-27 13:18:24 +00:00
stephena 4750c64a17 Phosphor mode now works with Blargg TV effects! It takes an extra 2-3 MB
RAM to do so, which I agonized over for about a week, but I feel it's
a fairly good tradeoff for the features we get.  Eventually, I may come
up with a more accurate phosphor mode which eliminates this approach
entirely.

Reverted OpenGL framebuffer to 32-bit colour mode.  We're using Blargg
effects, so we may as well get the full fidelity out of it.  Besides,
testing has shown that there's not much speed difference between 16
and 32 bit modes, making me think that 16-bit is probably be swizzled
to 32-bit anyway.

Bumped release date to June 1, version to rc1.

2012-05-26 22:18:13 +00:00
stephena 3a2865981a Reverted OpenGL framebuffer code to 16-bit colour, and removed blending
for phosphor effects.  It's just not ready to go yet, more research is
needed, and I just don't have the time to fix it.  Besides, it's been
two months since the last release, and I need a vacation.

Because of this, the release date is changed to May 25.

2012-05-24 16:26:33 +00:00
stephena b200260d85 Huge speedup in OpenGL rendering, by only updating part of the texture
instead of the entire area.  This fixes the speed regression from 3.6,
since the main TIA texture is now larger than before.  Previously it
was 160 pixels wide out of 256 total (rounded to power of two), now
it's 560 wide out of 1024 total.  In 3.6 it was updating a buffer 256
pixels wide, in the latest beta releases it was sending 4 times as
much data (256 -> 1024).  Now it sends only 160/560.  Similar
improvements happened with the height as well (210 lines vs 256).
On my test systems at least, this is an extremely large win,
resulting in similar speeds as 3.6 even though we've moved to a 32-bit
framebuffer.

Bumped version # for next beta release.

Pushed release date to June 1, to make absolutely sure I have
everything fixed and ready to go.

2012-05-20 18:26:59 +00:00
stephena 01c9bc30c3 More work on Chetiry bankswitch scheme. Preliminary version can
now load and play test ROMs, complete with emulation of timing delays
due to slow accesses on real Harmony hardware.  Still TODO is the tunes,
DPC+ stuff, which is stubbed out at this point.

Fixed bug in EFSC bankswitching; state files didn't contain extended RAM
information.

Cleaned up the Serializer API, resulting in slightly faster operation
and smaller state files.  Because of this, the state file format
has changed for this release (old state files will no longer work).

stephena e3ba9f0ec2 TIA objects and collisions are now toggle with the Alt-period keys,
instead of having different keys to turn them on and off separately.
This brings the functionality in line with the rest of the objects/
collision key-combos, which were also toggle-only.

stephena 6737091149 Replaced 'uselauncher' with 'exitlauncher', which specifies how the
ROM launcher should be used when exiting from a ROM.

stephena f853518540 Fixed ghost key issue with the CompuMate emulation. It seems that mixing
SDL keyboard events and the static GetKeyState() method doesn't always
work as you'd expect.

2012-04-19 20:11:16 +00:00
stephena 822a378182 A fairly large overhaul of the mouse-emulates-controller functionality,
fixing bugs too numerous to mention.  The end result is that using
Control-0 to switch between mouse modes is much more understandable.

Updated properties database for Telepathy ROM, which now uses the
MindLink controller.  Also updated Astroblast ROMs to use paddles
by default.

stephena db6e1c7c81 Added Mindlink controller emulation. Based on research, it seems that
only Bionic Breakthrough ever used this scheme, not Mind Maze and
Telepathy (as the properties database previously indicated).

stephena 82a048a086 Using the Control key in CompuMate mode will no longer interfere with
normal control functions (ie, pressing Ctrl-q will not quit, but send
this combo directly to CompuMate).

Mapped Func-Space to the Backspace key for CompuMate keyboard.
Func-space (which is actually Ctrl-space is still supported).

Updated documentation for CompuMate changes and system requirements.

2012-03-16 17:57:23 +00:00
stephena 92cda788c4 Fixed missing 'Enter' key in CompuMate emulation. It seems that the
z26 code never actually implemented this, so I'm not sure how people
actually entered Basic code.  I guess not many people have played 
with and tested this before.

Added more sensible keys for the CompuMate 'space' and 'enter' keys.
They're still mapped to '/' and ';' respectively (to keep locations
on the keyboard the same), but are also mapped to the actual 'Space'
and 'Enter' keys (to make usage much easier).  I'll probably also
map 'Shift-;' to Backspace as well.

Updated documentation for CompuMate emulation.

2012-03-15 23:40:36 +00:00
stephena 44b5cf66b9 The CompuMate emulation now correctly processes normal and
shifted keys from the keyboard.  Most control-keys are
supported too, but still TODO is allow the Control key to
pass to the CompuMate controller and not pre-process it
by the EventHandler (so pressing Ctrl-q) shouldn't quit
emulation in that case).

stephena 2ff4226e67 Fixed bug in BoosterGrip controller handling; the functionality
for analog pins 4 and 9 was swapped.

Renamed various 'Fire' button events to prevent the above problem
from happening again.

In BoosterGrip games, the right mouse button now sends the 'booster'
event, allowing one to play Omega Race fully with the mouse.
