- Updated default phosphor blend to '30'.
- Added shortcut keys Alt-i and Alt-o to decrease/increase phosphor
blend mode dynamically, while a ROM is running.
- Made range of blending 0 - 100.
manually selected ystart line matches the auto-detected one, and reset
it in the ROM properties. This makes sure that auto-detected values
are actually stored as '0', and not the auto-detected value.
Fixed ystart for 'Swoops' ROM.
crashes if started in bank 1 (the default for Stella). So we special-case
this ROM, and have it start in bank 0.

Updated properties database to RomHunter v11. I would have done this in the
last release, but nobody told me that v11 had been released.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@3267 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Added a specific closeConsole method, since the test for hasConsole was returning
true in cases where it shouldn't have.
Fixed PERL PropSet saving so that properties are always saved in sorted order
(by MD5). This isn't technically necessary, but it will eliminate huge changelogs
when only a small part of the file has changed.

Fixed bug after pressing Enter/Return in EditTextWidgets; it was exiting
from edit mode, which locked out certain key handling (these widgets
are always editable, and should not be exited in such a way).
Also, I just noticed the changelog file is exactly 2600 lines long :)

"Death Derby" won't be completed, it's the first to go.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2675 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Removed various 'Image' and 'Greeting Card' ROM info from the database;
the info was incomplete, and there's no way that I'm going over 7000+
ROMS to add them all. Eventually, I'd like the database to be for valid
ROMs only.

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.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2444 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
only Bionic Breakthrough ever used this scheme, not Mind Maze and
Telepathy (as the properties database previously indicated).

controllers at once. Stella wasn't initially designed to do this,
and the CompuMate is unique in this regard.

manually up to this point:
- 'rom_diff.pl' command inspects two directories and looks at differences
in filenames, and copies ROMs into 3 new directories (ADDED, REMOVED,
and CHANGED). This is most useful for when RomHunter releases new
romsets.
- 'merge_props.pl' command merges all properties from a source file that
also exist in a destination file. This is useful when I do a mass-edit
of many ROMs, with the info being saved into my personal stella.pro file.
Running this command afterwards will 'merge' them into the master
stella.pro file, and then Stella can be recompiled with the new properties.

dialog.
Updated all paddle and driving controller games with relevant axis info.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2374 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Tweaked the sound code again, to eliminate garbage data between
loading ROMs.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2342 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Updated ROM properties for 'Gingerbread Man' homebrew ROM, which
uses the Genesis controller.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2341 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Updated all bankswitch schemes for potential buffer overflow
issues. Copying was being done without regard for the size of the
ROM buffer.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2325 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
several cases (fixes problems when moving the mouse too fast or
when changing between video modes). Added extra signature to the
bankswitch autodetection for the 4A50 scheme.

which are specialized paddles classes that invert the axis, direction,
and axis+direction, respectively. Updated all applicable ROMs in the
properties database.
Cleaned up the menus in the OSX port; some of them weren't even tied
to anything. I'm seriously considering removing them all, except for
the Help and Quit items.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2230 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
'Virtual Devs' tab to 'Devices & Ports'. Updated documentation and
snapshots for this change.
Added Halo 2600 ROM info to internal properties database.
Increased default setting for 'joydeadzone' from 0 to 13. This means
the default deadzone is somewhere around half the axis range (~16500).
Fixed behaviour of hat events; events weren't actually being turned off
until the stick was centered.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2108 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Also, fixed a potential future bug where Stella can't handle paletted
images. Basically, the error handling is now more robust.
Minor rework of the CartF8 class; it now looks the ROM MD5 directly and
decides if it's a 'special' ROM.
Several updates to the built-in properties database, including better
support for each game in the 8-in-1 ROM image.
Fixed crash in TIA handling of the playfield mask; it could cause a
segfault under certain circumstances.
Fixed bug in prune_snapshots script; it now properly handles directory
names containing spaces in both Linux and OSX (and probably Windows as
well, but this hasn't been tested).
Updated built-in PNG library to the latest version (1.4.3).
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2066 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
Bumped version number so development can start on the next
release.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2035 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
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.

the one in the database isn't actually the most authentic, original one.
The output from '-listrominfo' command now includes all ROM property info,
making it useful for generating a list that can be imported into a
spreadsheet or database (or otherwise manipulated by some emulator
frontend).

normal scan. Previously, the blanking was done each frame, but the new
way more accurately emulates what happens on a real system.
Added a few tweaks for the properties database.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@1870 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
screwed up by my placement of the 'mmr' logic.
Added StayFrosty ROM info to properties database.

are too invasive to fix right now, and I haven't researched what the
correct route should be. Basically, Stella doesn't properly emulate the
behaviour of writes to RESxx and NUSIZx while graphics are currently
being drawn. The tweaks currently present restore functionality to the
2.8.4 release, but are still incorrect in some ROMs (Bumper Bash and Pole
Position).
Reworked 'object disable' mode in the TIA class. It should now be
slightly faster, and correctly disable objects in all cases
(previously, it was possible for some objects to be enabled depending
on the state of other objects, even when they were specifically
disabled).
Changed NUSIZx descriptors in the debugger to more clearly indicate
what's going on.
Cleaned up TIATable enum's, and eliminated duplication enumerations in
different parts of the codebase.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@1855 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
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.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@1774 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
the Stella header/disclaimer, just like all the other source files.
