stephena aa544ecfe9 Fixed bug when loading from ZIP files created in OSX. In some
cases, these archives contain directories named '__MACOSX' which
contain link files that were being erroneously detected as actual
ROMs.

Added FilesystemNode::isFile() method, and updated several places
in the code to use it.  Previously, determining whether something
was a file was simply testing if it wasn't a directory, but this
logic isn't always valid (it's possible to be neither a regular
file *nor* a directory).

Bumped version # for RC release.  It's getting very close ...

stephena e3fa8da1f9 OK, Blargg is now officially in the codebase! There's still quite a bit
left to do, but the basic functionality is now there.  Alt 1 - Alt 6
selects among TV modes as follows: off, composite, svideo, rgb, bad and
custom.  The latter is just composite at this point; there's no code to
actually change specific adjustables yet.  Alt 7/Shift-Alt 7 increases/
decreases scanline blend intensity (20% - 100%).

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.

by default.

stephena 809da97ad3 Potential performance improvement for Arrays. A reserve() method is now
available, which helps with constant resizes of arrays with a large number
of push_backs.  For now, only the ROM launcher and debugger disassembly
really needs it.

stephena 186fa5c1be Before I get back to mousemode and Blargg stuff, I decided to
make another pass at getting rid of raw pointers.  As I've come
to realize over the years (and in particular with reading the C++11
standard), raw pointers are evil and error-prone.  So this fixes
some of them at least.

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.

stephena 539edc656b Removed GL VBO option from the UI, since playing with it can
cause issues.  Stella will always use VBO when available, and
disable it otherwise.  For those (few/none?) people that want to
disable it, they can do it from the commandline.  This option will
disappear completely in Stella 4.0 anyway ...

stephena c136a30cbc The left and right mouse buttons are now recognized separately in emulation mode.
Checking in first pass at revamping the 'mcontrol' functionality.  The idea is
that the mouse will be able to emulate different controllers on each of its
axes.  For now, the left mouse button is tied to the X-axis, and the right to 
the Y-axis.  These modes will be saved per-ROM, meaning that the mapping can
be different for each ROM (it is saved as part of the ROM properties).  Only
the paddles and driving controllers will allow this, since they're the only
controllers where a single axis makes sense.

Switching between mouse modes will be done with Control-0 (the Control-1..3
keys have been removed).  This will allow switching all possible combinations
(left controller, right controller, per-ROM setting, etc).

stephena 73dbe861a6 Refactored the keycode handling through the GUI classes, making it more
generic than SDL, but less generic than simply using int's for everything.
This will help once we start porting to SDL2, which has an updated keycode
handling system.  The plan is that the internal core keyboard stuff is now
insulated from any further changes in SDL.

This also allows eventually adding support for CompuMate controller,
which needs access to keycode names in a generic way.

stephena c95d5f804d Updated all files to copyright 2012. Happy New Year to anyone reading
these logs!

Moved TODO and Credits info directly to the webpage, where it will hopefully
be easier to maintain.

Fixed 'crackling' sound when loading a new ROM, introduced with the 3.5
sound restructuring.  It looks like stale data was being loaded by the
sound processing callback.  As well, moved the computation of certain
division variables from the sound callback to the framerate re-calculator
(where it's recomputed 1/5 of the time or less).

Updated AboutDialog with info about Stella DonationWare status, and active
members of Stella development.

Updated OSX in-app HTML documentation about Stella DonationWare status.

Bumped version # to 3.5.1_svn, and the process starts again.

2011-12-22 21:29:24 +00:00
stephena 56694b5934 The sound system is now opened once per program invocation, and paused
when it isn't needed.  According to SDL this shouldn't be necessary, but
some combinations of video modes and audio hardware cause sound to stop
working if it's repeatedly opened and closed.  So we have to keep it open.

Always attempt to use 2 channels (aka stereo) when opening the SDL audio
device.  This is now required, since ROMs can request mono or stereo mode,
and the sound system can no longer be closed and re-opened with the
desired settings.  So we need to always use 2 channels to accommodate
when it might be needed.  This actually more closely emulates the 2600,
which does have two audio channels.  The 'mono' vs 'stereo' ROM property
basically controls whether these channels are exposed (ie, does the
virtual console have two-channel audio hardware installed).  In that sense,
these settings control how the channels are mixed.

Updated some settings to have more reasonable defaults.

Added acknowledgement for people that have donated hardware to help with
development.

stephena d35c220953 Huge restructuring of the joystick handling code. Event mapping is now
saved per device, so that unplugging and replugging a joystick won't cause
the previous mappings to be lost.

All attributes of a joystick (ie, number of sticks, number of axes, buttons,
hats on each stick) are dynamic, meaning that hardcoded values are no
longer used, making the handling more robust.

stephena 55f4de0725 First pass at converting the OpenGL renderer to be OpenGLES 1.0
compliant.  It actually went smoother than I thought it would.
This show allow Stella to run well on *any* hardware-accelerated
OpenGL machine, not just those with beefy video cards.

Cleaned up the code a little, removing more references to the old
OpenGL TV filtering (which will be replaced by Blargg NTSC
filtering soon enough).  Also removed 'gl_texrect' option, which
specified to use the GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB extension (for
non power-of-two textures).  It was never enabled by default,
didn't work with ATI cards, and wasn't accessible in the UI,
so I doubt anyone will miss it.  Besides, it's not supported in
OpenGL ES 1.x.

Next is to look into VBO/PBO, to see if more optimizations can
be done.

2011-08-16 19:33:28 +00:00
stephena a16f862193 Added logging capability and viewer. This is useful for those platforms that
don't normally use the commandline (mostly Windows, but in some cases OSX as
well).  The 'showinfo' commandline argument has been renamed 'loglevel', but
it has the same purpose.  A new option 'logtoconsole' has been added, which
determines whether log output should also be directed to the commandline/
console (previously, it was always printed to the console).  All these items
are now accessible from Options -> System Logs.

For anyone reading this (and that cares), now I can finally move on to the
OpenGL rewrite.  The plan is that the new code will use OpenGL ES, which
is a subset of OpenGL 1.5.  The main advantages are that you won't need
an advanced OpenGL card, and OpenGL ES is supported on most new 'smaller'
systems (iPhone, Android, etc), making ports much easier.

stephena f549cf9661 Removed some 'throw(...)' declarations, which are deprecated in the latest version
of the C++ standard.

Fixed bug when using snprintf; we must use BSPF_snprintf, since the function
has different names in different OS's.

Optimized loading of PNG images in the RomInfoWidget so that memory allocations
aren't continuously being done.  Basically, memory is allocated once and then
only re-allocated if a new image is larger than all previous ones.  This can
increase memory use slightly, as the image data stays around between image loads,
and it remembers the largest image loaded.  But if you images are all mostly the
same size, it should hurt memory usage too much.  And it really helps on certain
systems where repeated (re)-allocations can cause problems.

stephena 377765f565 Removed all traces of the OpenGL TV filters. This is due to be replaced by
Blargg NTSC filtering, but we need to revert to base functionality first.

Cleaned up the debugger API wrt converting values from integers to strings
(and vice-versa).  There is now only one method for each of these functions,
rather than several ways to do so.  In the process, convert from unsafe
sprintf functions into snprintf (eliminate potential buffer overflows).

The debugger 'print' command now indicates if any assigned label represents
a read-only location (R), a write-only location (W), or a read/write location
(R/W).

Fixed bug in DataGridWidgets (used in debugger ROM and CPU registers), where
scrolling the mouse-wheel would cause a segfault.  Scrolling the mousewheel
now changes these items as expected.

stephena df71aa03d1 Cleaned up the FilesystemNode API a little, removing some redundant code.
The debugger 'saverom' command now uses absolute filenames, and by default
will save data in the users home directory if a proper path isn't included
in the filename.  This fixes a major bug where ROMs were being saved to
the current or application directory, which in some cases were invalid
locations.

stephena bc7daa397e Added ability for the debugger to start up in 'fatal error' mode.
This basically shows a messagebox as soon as the debugger starts,
describing the error and offering the choice to continue debugging
or exiting the ROM entirely.

The DPC+ code now catches fatal errors from the Thumb ARM
emulation code and shows it as a fatal error in the debugger.
This means you no longer need to look at the commandline for
this output, and you immediately know that something has
gone wrong.

Added 'exitrom' debugger parser command, which completely exits
from the debugger *and* the ROM, going back to the ROM launcher.

Cleaned up the API a little, rearranging some classes and
adding references instead of pointers.  More work to be done
in this area.

stephena 4e6d4cb1c6 Cleaned up some inlines that weren't needed.
Updated documentation with info about 2600-daptor, including
usage and its creator.  Also included more in-depth explanation
for the various controller types.

Errors from the Thumb ARM emulation code are now caught as exceptions,
and thrown to the parent class instead of calling exit() and simply
crashing Stella.  For now, the messages are simply printed and
emulation continues.  This will be expanded to show a detailed crash
log in the debugger, and offer the option to exit the ROM.

Removed most of the menus from the OSX port.  They weren't being
maintained anyway, and most of them didn't work.  I've modelled this
on the way other cross-platform OSX programs work (notably, ScummVM).
Basically, there are menus for exit and help, but otherwise you
should use the menuing system in the application itself.

which are specialized paddles classes that invert the axis, direction,
and axis+direction, respectively.  Updated all applicable ROMs in the
properties database.

to anything.  I'm seriously considering removing them all, except for
the Help and Quit items.

stephena 264145a939 Huge improvements to paddle and mouse handling:
- mouse can now emulate joystick, booster-grip and driving controllers
 - digital and mouse sensitivity for paddles can now be tweaked
   separately, and have a greater range
 - the mouse now correctly honours its controller setting, and only
   controls a device on one one port (not both at the same time)

Added support for 2600-daptor device.  Credit for creator of device
is forthcoming.  This device is basically an updated Stelladaptor,
with improved handling for paddle data.

Grabmouse functionality is no longer user-definable; the mouse is
always grabbed while playing a game, and released otherwise.

stephena c9ab109524 Converted several 'toString' methods to use stringstreams instead of
multiple concatentation of strings.  This should be faster, or at least
lead to less string constructor calls.

Output of 'ROW' directives in the disassembly now shows only 8 items per
line, instead of 16.  This allows to see all the bytes without having a
'...' in between.  A future release may customize this to the size of the
output area.

Fixed output from debugger 'disasm' command to properly align different
directive types and show GFX and PGFX output.

Bumped state file version to 3.3 final, since there are no further
changes to the code that will break the file format.

stephena 8cb6a83512 Reworked M6502 detection of debugger GFX sections, by moving the actual
detection and marking of those areas into the TIA class itself, specifically
at the location of the write.  In other words, there's no longer an IF
statement executed for every STx opcode; the marking is done directly
within the write to GRPx or PFx, so extra code is only executed when
actually storing to those locations.

Fixed several cases of opcodes marking an area as CODE when it should have
been DATA.

Added output to the CPU area of the debugger for displaying the source
address for loading data into the A/X/Y registers.  Note that these are
only modified when actual addresses are used, so immediate and zero-page
mode will show addresses as zero (meaning that no address was involved
in retrieving the data).

Tweaked console font to better diffentiate the disassembly output between
graphics for players and graphics for the playfield.

Bumped state file format because of changes to M6502.  This means old
state files will be broken.

Bumped version # for next test release.

stephena 0388ab89e5 Added a new directive called PGFX, used for playfield graphics (the
previously defined GFX directive is now used for player graphics
only).  The 6502 core tracks each of these separately, which provides
for more accurate disassembly.

Modified debugger font and disassembler to show GFX and PGFX with
special characters, instead of using 'X' as Distella does.  This also
allows gives much more informative disassembled outout.

is used instead.  This could potentially lead to faster compile times.

Basically, directories are now guaranteed to always end in the path
separator.  Ensuring this makes certain sections of code work faster,
and guaranteeing it allows higher layers of code to not worry about it.

Reworked 'center window' functionality.  Using the SDL_VIDEO_CENTERED
environment variable was always a hack, and a bug was introduced in X11
OpenGL mode in version 1.2.14.  However, since SDL is now in maintenance
mode and won't be receiving any further updates, we have to bypass it
entirely.  Added infrastructure for OSystem to center the application
window.  For now, only Linux X11 mode is supported.  Still TODO is add
support for Windows.  OSX was never supported anyway.  This also means
that the center window variable no longer requires the application to
be restarted.

stephena 044e1aa151 Some cleanups to the event mapping UI and associated functionality:
1)  Added a 'Reset' button to the UI, which resets (to defaults)
the currently selected item.  This is more fine-grained than the actual
'Defaults' button, which resets *all* events.

2)  Rearranged some buttons and resized UI.  There is now a main 'Defaults'
button on the bottom of the dialog, which applies to the currently selected
tab.  This also allows to set defaults for Virtual Devs, which didn't have
such functionality previously.

3)  Added a 'Combo' button to the Emulation events tab.  It doesn't do
anything yet, but eventually will allow to assign events to the 'combo'
events.

ContextMenu/PopupWidget now supports the scroll button on a mouse when
in scroll mode.

stephena 1b19d4a29f More cleanups to the UI.
Context menus, both as right-mouse button popups and those part of
PopupWidgets now have arrows that support scrolling, without having to
continuously click the mouse button.  The scroll arrow color also
changes to disabled when they reach the upper or lower range.
Also, the maximum number of items shown in a ContextMenu is now 16,
which looks quite a bit nicer than showing 30 or so all at once.

ScrollBarWidget now looks a little nicer, as the scroll bar is a little
wider, and the arrows are larger (same ones from ContextMenu).  As well,
click and hold works on the scroll buttons, even during mouse movement.
This means you no longer have to hold the mouse completely still to
get continuous mouse click events.

Dialogs can now register whether they want to receive continuous mouse
click events (aka, click and hold of a mouse button).  Most dialogs
don't need it, and some even work incorrectly when it's activated.
This fixes a bug in ContextMenu, where click and hold on a PopupWidget
would continuously open and close the list of items.

stephena ee43255ea1 Many changes to the UI to fully support the smallest resolution that
Stella can use (320x240).  The app should no longer crash in such
low-res situations.

Various improvements to the UI, adding many finishing touches.  The
text is more descriptive, and the options are somewhat better labeled.
As well, the available options are better presented based on the
restrictions currently in use (ie, if the maximum resolution is very
small, then the high-res resolutions are not shown in selectors, etc).

Added MessageBox to ROM Audit functionality, to warn that it is a
dangerous operation and that a file backup is advised.

Updated OSX build script to not crash when an older image has already
been created.

stephena b59672542d Further improvements to accessing the UI with joystick axes and hats.
The event mapping for such events is now done on the release of the
axis/hat, and not on the first press.  This should fix the remaining
problems with sensitivity, as the user must explicit press and then
release the axis/hat, with all other events occurring the meantime
being ignored.

Fixed bug in continuous events for axes/hats; event that represent
'off' should not be continuously sent.

stephena e0376c85d2 Tweaked navigating the UI with a joystick, particularly with analog
axes.  It shouldn't be nearly as sensitive now.

Cleaned up handling of joystick hats, and fixed continuous events

hat is centered again).

directory name containing a space.

stephena c3f5aa2810 When starting Stella for the first time (ie, when the ROM directory hasn't
been chosen), a dialog box now appears, asking the user to enter the
default directory.  This directory will appear each time the ROM launcher
is entered, until the user selects a directory.  This will hopefully
eliminate bug reports from users that don't know what to do when first
starting Stella.

Big changes to the manual, separating the necessary, up-front information
from the advanced stuff that can be considered later (or not at all).
Also added more links to ease navigation.  This should make the manual more
readable for those that have complained it's too long.

The setting for TV color type is now 'Color' and 'BW', instead of
'BlackAndWhite', as before.  The old one will continue to work, though.

stephena 78fd3c0c7d Modified joystick axis event handling, so that digital output is always used
when sending axis events to the DialogContainer (ie, all UI-related stuff).
The UI code was originally written with this in mind, and wasn't designed for
analog input.  For normal digital sticks, nothing changes.  For analog sticks,
values are clamped to 3 points (max, min, off), and repeated consecutive
events are ignored.  This (partially) fixes bugs in the UI, where pressing
an analog stick would cause the current selector to move very fast.

Added repeat mode for joystick hats, similar to joystick axes (so holding
down a hat will cause continuous events to occur.  More testing is
required for this, as I don't actually have access to hats right now.

The debugger can now be resized in between ROM launches (ie, before
a ROM is actually started).  Previously, the entire program had to
be restarted for resizing to take effect.

stephena 5ca6d8c49d Removed 'uselauncher' from the UI, as it really shouldn't be there
(ie, disabling from the UI kills the UI on future runs, so you can't
enable it again).  This should fix problems where users go
'click-happy' in the UI, turning options on and off just to see what
happens.

Added 'showinfo' to the UI, so you don't have to drop to the
commandline to use it.

Updated all release files and bumped version number for 3.1.2
release.

stephena 5de12952ec Added OSystem::logMessage(), which abstracts the logging of messages to
an outputstream.  For now, the output simply goes to stdout or stderr,
just like before, but the possibility is now there to redirect to a
file if desired.

Changed 'showinfo' commandline option to accept 'levels' of output
instead of simply being a boolean.  The new default is level 1,
in which normal messages are output during a run.  Level 2 will
show more detailed info, and may be useful in debugging end-user
problems.  There's still more work to do wrt level 2.

stephena f94ebed340 Some improvements to continuous snapshot mode:
1) the interval between snapshots can be configured within the
'File Settings' dialog

2) the commandline option is now named 'ssinterval' instead of 'ssdelay'

3) the action is tied to the 'Alt/Cmd-s' key instead of a function key

There's just one more small issue to take care of in the Windows port,
and the next release should be ready.

stephena ea6ea9a7bd Renamed 'autocode' commandline argument and associated UI item
to 'resolvedata', since that more accurately describes what it does.
Also, it now accepts arguments as strings (never, always, auto)
instead of 0, 1, 2.

Updated main documentation for changes in OSX port 'basedir'.

Updated debugger documentation for recent command additions, and
provided new snapshots where the UI has changed.

It seems to be getting close to a new release - perhaps this

stephena 10c82a9457 Removed 'md5instate' commandline argument (it was previously added
post-3.0), and reworked how state files are accessed.  The cart type
now determines if a state file is valid, meaning developers can use
one state file across multiple builds of their program.

Added 'runtopc' debugger command, and associated UI item in the
RomWidget area.  This steps the code until the PC matches the given
value.

Added '16in1' bankswitch scheme, which is useful for ROMs named
'128-in-1' in RomHunter database.  Also, all multicart schemes now
show the current ROM onscreen while switching between them.

Fixed bug in Serializer class when accessing files in read-only mode.
Such files would be created and set to zero size, even if only
reading was requested.

stephena 72b2ddd89b First pass at updating the documentation for the impending 3.1
release.  This won't have everything I'd have liked to include,
but the release time has dragged on enough (the last release
was in Sept 2009!).

Some general code cleanups for the OSX port, as well as fixes
to the menus.  The menus contained items that in some cases
weren't actually tied to any event, or showed the wrong
shortcut key.  Also removed some of the more esoteric menu
items, sticking with only the most basic ones (fullscreen vs.
window mode, volume control, etc).

be started (if it's been enabled).

2010-03-18 17:34:53 +00:00
stephena 0ed4a9fa79 OK, I've finally gotten back to Stella development and fixing the
disassembler.  Hopefully this will lead to a new release very soon.

Added 'autocode' commandline argument and associated UI item (in the
RomWidget debugger area), which controls how Distella will use the
'automatic code determination' option.  If set to 0/never, this is
completely disabled.  If set to 1/always, it is always enabled.
The default is 2/automatic, whereby it is first turned on, and then
turned off if the disassembly doesn't contain the current PC address.

RomListWidget has now been completely reworked, so that it informs
RomWidget of its intent to change breakpoints and patch ROM.  If
either of these fail, the action won't be performed, and more
importantly, it won't appear onscreen as if the action has succeeded.
This fixes an old bug whereby patching could fail, yet the onscreen
ROM data was actually changed.  Related to this, the list has been
made as efficient as possible, and its contents are never un-necessarily
copied.  Also, lines in the disassembly that cannot be modified no
longer show an edit area.

Due to the way the new disassembly works, you can no longer switch between
banks in the RomWidget (Distella would probably fail to disassemble in
such as case).

EditTextWidget can now indicate its contents have changed when adding
text to it.

stephena 965787050a First pass at fixing ContextMenu when list of items is larger

stephena f7d8334768 Some fixes for 'small screen' functionality. The lower bound of 320x240
is now enforced in more areas of the code, specifically, in BrowserDialog,
VideoDialog and InputDialog.

Rearranged some options in InputDialog (for spacing), and removed the
'mouse is paddle ...' option.  It was never being saved to the config
file anyway, and is still selectable with Ctrl-0,1,2,3 keys.

Added 'maxres' commandline argument, which overrides the built-in
determination of desktop size normally done by SDL.  This is not
documented, and is not meant to be used by anyone other than those
testing Stella on 'small' systems.  It's basically a way to set the
desktop size without recompiling Stella each time.

Still TODO is look at all other dialogs, making sure they fit in the
minimum size.  PopupDialog in particular needs to be fixed.

stephena 19f146038d Added more accurate functionality for the _rwport debugger command. It now
properly distinguishes between intermediate reads which are part of writes,
and ordinary reads.  In the former case, only a read which has a different
address than a write is flagged as an error; intermediate reads acting on
the same address as the corresponding write are considered normal, and won't
trigger a break.

stephena 00f8ffb686 Revamped the result on floating pins for TIA reads. Previously, this was
controlled by 'tiafloat', which has now been removed.  Now, all
undriven pins take on the last value on the databus.  This fixes a bug
in those reads where bit 6 or bits 6 & 7 are also undriven (previously,
these bits would always be zero, and only bits 0-5 were from lastdatabus.

Added new commandline argument 'tiadriven', which defaults to false.
In this default case, relevant bits take on values from the databus.
If true, relevant bits still take on databus values, but some are
randomly driven high as well.  This helps to expose bugs when
developers assume the values for undriven/floating bits.

Added 'uimessages' commandline argument and associated UI item.  When
disabled, messages which are normally shown in-game are disabled.
Certain messages which indicate a serious error are still shown, however.

stephena 35ad585c48 Modified -fullscreen commandline argument to accept an integer instead
of a boolean.  It now accepts value '-1' to mean 'completely disable
fullscreen mode switching'.  This was added because some systems with
buggy video drivers can't handle fullscreen mode, and accidentally
trying to do so can lock up such a system.

Fixed fullscreen/windowed switching wrt grabbing the mouse.  Sometimes
switching from fullscreen to windowed mode had the cursor trapped in
the window, even if grabmouse was disabled.

InputDialog/Virtual Devs to allow all 4 directions to be pressed
simultaneously on a virtual joystick.  This support was always present
for 'Bumper Bash', but it can now be enabled/disabled for any ROM.
Note that the setting is ignored for 'Bumper Bash', as that ROM
requires it to be always turned on.

stephena 3c5cc40e08 OK, this looks like a huge update, but it's only because of some Serializer
class reworking.  Serializer class now handles read/write of state from
files as well as in-memory streams.  As a result, Deserializer class has
been removed.

Added state rewinding to the debugger.  For now, this is limited to 100
levels of undo, with a new state generated each time a step/trace/frame/
scanline advance is performed.  The undo level is 'rolling', in that it
remembers the last 100 levels (so you lose the oldest states when you
start adding more than 100).  For now, this is tied to the 'Alt-r' key
in the debugger.  Still TODO is add a button for it, and clean up some
TIA output issues when rewinding.

Added support for 6K version of Supercharger ROMs (this fixes issues
with the 6K version of Cubis).

Cleaned up the Serializable infrastructure, making sure that all
classes that need to implement it actually do so now.

Fixed issue with editable widgets in the UI, where pressing Enter
on the keypad wasn't actually being registered.

stephena 7be6be8263 Added 'Go to previous directory' event to the UI. Currently, this is
mapped to Backspace, and is used in the ROM launcher and various
BrowserWidgets.  The event can be remapped if desired.  When I'm

it was getting a little tiring to reach for the mouse each time I
wanted to change directories.

stephena 8a8d04031a Converted OSystem::getTicks() to use 64-bit integers. This should fix the
problems with integer overflow, which could sometimes cause Stella to
sleep for long periods of time.  For those who are interested, the
problem was that SDL_GetTicks() wraps every 49 days (32-bit int
overflow), but since OSystem::getTicks() provides info in microseconds,
it multiplied the value by 1000.  This caused wraparound in 49/1000
days, or 70.56 minutes.  This almost exactly matches the reports on
AtariAge of 'lockups' occuring every 71 minutes or so.  It also
explains why attaching to Stella with GDB and bypassing the delay
allows the program to continue (as reported by another bugtester).

Added signature to detect UA bankswitching for Gingerbread Man ROM.

Bumped version number.

Also, the '~' character now more properly refers to the actual home directory of the user, and not their 'My Documents' folder (ie, it refers to their PROFILE name). Config files are now by default stored in APPDATA, which for XP and Vista is ~/Application Data/. The ability to override this with basedir.txt is still available, but not recommended. This is the *LAST* time the Windows config file locations will be changed, so everyone will have to get used to it.

Made PropSet::getMD5() more explicitly return a boolean indicating if the
properties were found, vs. having a CartName of 'Untitled' indicating that
it wasn't found.

The file being used by Stella in multi-file ZIP archive is now shown in
the window title, vs. showing the name of the ZIP file itself.  Related
to this, a file with an extension of 'rom' is now valid inside ZIP
archives.

Updated documentation for bankswitch types, more clearly indicating which
ones support autodetection and the debugger.

stephena 9b7963d3f3 Added support for 4IN1, 8IN1 and 32IN1 bankswitch formats. These all act
as if they were 32in1 carts, in that you have to do a on-off power cycle to
switch between each ROM.

Updated ROM properties for the aforementioned BS types, and fixed some
others (SWOOPS, etc).

Added PERL tool to scan a snapshot directory and report any extra and/or
missing snapshots.

stephena 3ef83843b5 Added autodetection for X07 bankswitching scheme.
Added OpenGL info to the TV effect tab of the VideoDialog, so users
can see why the effects aren't available if OpenGL is not sufficient.

stephena 111ae9185f Well, it looks like I can squeeze this into 2.8 after all.
Randomized value placed in accumulator after exiting the SC BIOS for
SuperCharger ROMs.  This should fix issues in Dragonstomper, where it
seems the randomization of its items depending on a random accumulator
value.

Re-added '-fastscbios', and when enabled, it completely skips
the emulation of SC BIOS progress bars (previously, the bars were
simply sped up).  This defaults to off, for more authentic emulation.
Related to this, added a UI item in VideoDialog to enable/disable it.

Thanks to Eckhard Stolberg for advice on the SCROM, and how to
modify it.

stephena 08bc2386f4 Updated PropSet to use C++ map instead of homemade BST code. I originally
wrote this back in 2000 or so, after I had just finished an algorithms
design course, and insisted on coding my own ADT.  I've come to realize
that in most cases, rolling your own is just a waste of time :)  Related
to this, the 'listrominfo' commandline argument now correctly shows all
the ROM info built in to Stella internal database.

Bumped version # to 2.8.  I just need to check out OSX, and then we
should be ready for the next release.

stephena 2bc2ff639c Handle 'read from write port' functionality for CV carts. Still TODO are
the ones that bankswitch in RAM, since I don't know what should happen there.

Added 'exitlauncher' commandline argument, which specifies the functionality
of the 'Exit to launcher' action; should exiting a game actually go back to
the launcher, or exit the program entirely.  Also added a UI item in UIDialog
for this.

Reworked the fullscreen/windowed handling in FrameBuffer, simplifying the
logic for determining whether the SDL surface is actually in fullscreen
or not.

stephena aa2e76c4ea Updated documentation about CRT simulation effects.
General updates to the documentation for people I forgot to include in
previous releases.  Also added websites where applicable.

Update AboutDialog to be more current, showing only those members
currently active in the Stella project and the other teams that have
contributed code.  For more specifics, you should now see the manual.
Basically consolidated all contribution info into one document, so it
has to be kept up-to-date in only one place.

stephena 3280901be9 Added support for accessing/modifying extended RAM (aka SuperChip) from
the debugger RAM UI.  A scrollbar is now present, which can scroll
through each 128 byte 'bank'.  Labels indicate the current readport,
so you can distinguish between different areas of RAM.  For now,
F4SC, F6SC, F8SC, and FASC have been converted, but I'm looking into the
other schemes now.

The RAM UI takes care of all read/write port issues.  From the POV of
the UI, the RAM can be treated as zero-page; translation is done
behind the scene.  Searching/comparing and change-tracking are also
supported.

The 'ram' command in the debugger prompt now reflects all RAM, and
readport/writeport addresses are shown, making it easier to use the
command withot having to look up the offsets.

Debugger width has been bumped to 1050 pixels wide to accomodate the
new functionality.  We'll see how much trouble this causes ...

stephena 402b13afd7 OpenGL TV filters require OpenGL 2.0+ and cannot currently be used when
'gl_texrect' is enabled.  The VideoDialog now reflects this, by stating
a message, and disabling the UI items when not satisfied.

stephena 79e4e42ae7 OK, this is a BIG commit.
Added CRT simulation as described by Ian Bogost in the AtariAge thread
'CRT simulation for Stella.  This is just the first pass, but things
are working nicely so far (for those systems that can support it).  It
requires at least OpenGL 2.0 with GLSL (GL Shading language).  Added
the commandline arugments 'tv_tex', 'tv_bleed', 'tv_noise' and 'tv_phos'
used to set these various effects, as well as the ability to set them
within the Video Settings dialog.  More documentation is forthcoming
on this.

All bankswitch modes that use SC RAM now act correctly when reading
from the write port (the RAM is erased).

Patching ROMs with bankswitch type 0840, SB, UA and X07 is now working.

Went through all the bankswitch classes and converted multiplication/
division to shift operations whenever possible.  It's a
micro-optimization, but what the heck; every little bit of speed counts.
