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 #.

been removed.  Sorry to anyone still using these systems, but this
decision is final.  It's time to move on, folks.

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.

stephena 8f65771872 The built-in Distella was assuming the 'r' flag (-r on commandline)
option was set, which normally isn't when disassembling standalone
ROMs.  As such, the disassembly didn't match standard Distella output.
The 'fflag' and 'rflag' options from Distella have therefore been
integrated, but they're not configurable at this point (hardcoded
to true and false, respectively).

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.

stephena feac57253e Now that the Serializer class throws exceptions differently,
we need to modify what is caught.  Ironically enough, this fixes
a bug whereby when certain errors occur, the recovery system
itself would crash, not the issue that actually caused the bug!

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.

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.

stephena beb18bfc43 CTY scheme now contains logic to determine when 'LDA #$F2' is executed.

stephena ad8dd1d27e The OpenGL code now uses 32-bit textures. This is required for
blending in conjunction with phosphor effect.

For the Chetiry scheme, when loading or saving the 64 byte score
table, we now ignore the first 4 bytes (as specified by the
documentation).  These 4 bytes/addresses are actually a type of hotspot.

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 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).
