Changes from 0.136
==================
1) Up to date with baseline 0.136 (RB)
2) More typecasting so compiling as C++ can succeed (couriersud)
3) Cleaned up #ifdefs, added more -verbose output, improved SDL
1.3 support (couriersud)
4) Cleaned up Windows support (couriersud)
5) Fixed possible weirdness enumerating controller buttons (Skito)
tap backend work on NetBSD (NetBSD uses an ioctl to get the tap name).
patch-ab: add support for the "select without ATN" to the emulated
esp device. NetBSD's esp(4) uses this command and aborts after a timeout.
While there fix the homepage URL.
Now NetBSD/sparc 5.0.1 boots and runs fine in qemu-system-sparc on a
NetBSD/amd64 host.
Bump pkgrevision.

New in This Version
* After a long pause, finally updated fMSX-Unix port. fMSX-Unix source code
is once again available as part of the core source code distribution. It
has been debugged on the Ubuntu Linux. Let me know of any incompatibilities
with other Unix flavors.
* Extended fMSX-Symbian port to support UIQ3 phones from Sony Ericsson and
Motorola. As I only have key-operated Motorola Z8, testers with pen-based
SE phones are badly needed.
* Added run-time compatibility with 8bpp, 16bpp, 24bpp (32bit pixels) and
32bpp screen depths to fMSX-Unix. IMPORTANT: At this moment, built-in
config menu, debugger, and NetPlay dialog will only work at X11 screen
depth that matches your compile-time setting (i.e. -DBPPxx) in Makefile.
Make sure you always compile fMSX-Unix for your default screen depth.
* Disabled secondary slots for primary slot #0 in MSX1 mode. DiskROM boots in
MSX1 mode again.
* Now syncing all sound channels after loading state, sound does not get
"stuck" any more.
* Renamed command line option -zoom/-nozoom into -soft/-nosoft.
* Moved a few key definitions, so that "!@#$%^..." characters can now be used
as indices into Keys[]. This is done for compatibility with GDK key events.
* Renamed KeyMap[] to KeyState[] to avoid name clash with MacOSX system API.
* ALT swaps joysticks 1/2 on all platforms where applicable.
* CONTROL/SHIFT keys now act as FIRE-A/FIRE-B joystick buttons on all
platforms.
* Improved fMSX-Symbian sound code, although sound problems still persist on
some UIQ3 phones.
* Split fMSX-Symbian/S60 configuration menu into four tabs, making "Video"
and "Audio" settings separate.
* Added "Audio Latency", "Skip Frames", and "Sync Updates" settings to
fMSX-Symbian.
* Added to fMSX-Symbian ability to use Nokia E61/E62 [FUNC] key in the
built-in menu.
* Fixed an fMSX-Symbian bug where pieces of virtual keyboard remained on
screen after closing it.

for the phones which do not have the [EDIT] key.
New in fMSX 3.4
* Added network play option to fMSX-Windows and fMSX-Symbian!
* Now not opening printer file until the first character is printed.
* Fixed OUTD/OUTDR opcodes to modify B register before the OUT operation.
* No longer trying to load state files from LoadFile().
* Defined "INLINE" properly, depending on the C standard supported by the
compiler.
* Finally retired #ifdef SOUND as sound is always compiled in anyway.
* Added new, much better, scanline simulation and video softening effects to
fMSX-Windows.
* fMSX-Windows full-screen mode now runs in 640x480 resolution.
* Fixed problem with full-screen SCREEN 6/7 in fMSX-Windows.
* fMSX-MSDOS has got complete (non-truncated) emulation for SCREEN 6/7 and
TEXT80 screen modes.
* fMSX-MSDOS now always runs in 640x480x15bpp VESA screen mode.
* Added options to simulate TV scanlines (-tv/-notv) and zoom display (-zoom/
-nozoom) to fMSX-MSDOS.
* Options -sync/-nosync/-vsync work properly again in fMSX-MSDOS.
* Added new "Fill & Soften" zoom mode to fMSX-Symbian. It is rather slow
though.
* Added ability to use virtual keyboard in fMSX-Symbian to enter filename
when saving files from the built-in menu.
* Fixed problem with gameplay being too fast in fMSX-Symbian.
* Fixed possible source of instabilities in the S60 open file dialog in
fMSX-Symbian.
* Fixed exit via Symbian-specific menu.
* Fixed premature termination of the emulation thread when exiting
fMSX-Symbian, soundtrack recording and config saving work again.
* The [C] ("Clear") key is no longer used to toggle sound in fMSX-Symbian. It
acts as [BACKSPACE] instead.
New in fMSX 3.3
* Save state format has changed due to serious changes to the emulator
architecture!
* Added OpZ80() function and the FAST_RDOP macro to the Z80 emulation to
optimize code access in architectures with memory-mapped I/O.
* Added subslot support to all slots.
* Moved PAINTER.ROM to slot 0:1, FMPAC to slot 0:2, MSXDOS2.ROM to slot 3:0.
* Reduced the number of user cartridges back to two (A/B). All the other
slots are taken by system cartridges (MSXDOS2, FMPAC, etc.).
* Locked user cartridges in slots 1/2 to subslot 0, as external cartridges
often do not use subslots.
* If Konami's GMASTER2.ROM or GMASTER.ROM is present in the program
directory, fMSX will now load it as a system cartridge.
* Fixed state file name autogeneration.
* Fixed -rom option behaviour.
* Fixed hangup when switching from MSX1 to MSX2 mode.

* Added unified .FDI disk image support (FDIDisk.c).
* Added support for standard, SV738, Arabic, and Brazilian WD1793-based disk
interfaces.
* Added support for GZIPped disk images.
* Made disk geometry discovery smarter (CP/M-80 v2.2 now boots).
* Moved 720kB floppy utilities (Floppy.c) and SCC sound chip emulation
(SCC.c) into EMULib.
* Added command line option to patch DiskROM calls (-simbdos). With this
option on, fMSX takes over DiskROM disk access routines. When -wd1793 is
used, fMSX will simulate real WD1793 FDC instead.
* Rehashed built-in menu to make screen space for more options.
* Added menu options to select RAM and VRAM sizes, create new disk images,
save disk images, patch DiskROM calls, load and use fixed text mode fonts.
* Added virtual keyboard to fMSX-Symbian, invoked by pressing [EDIT] or left
[SHIFT] key. The keyboard can work in three modes: "Off", "Single Key
Entry", and "Multiple Keys Entry".
* Added display orientation settings to fMSX-Symbian ("Landscape",
"Portrait", and "Auto").
* Finally fixed opendir() problem in EMULib-Symbian. All built-in menu file

* Fixed possible crash when selecting an initial file in fMSX-Symbian.
* Improved "About" box in fMSX-Symbian.
* Moved fMSX-Symbian file selection root to E:\.
* When initial file selection cancelled, fMSX-Symbian will now boot into
plain BASIC (i.e. no cartridges and no disks).
* Renamed fMSX-Symbian binary and resource files to avoid name clash with
fMSX/S60 port by Juha Riihimaki.
* Fixed mouse support in fMSX-MSDOS.
New in fMSX 3.2
* Added ChangePrinter() function to set printer redirection file.
* Moved disk operations to a separate submenu of the built-in menu and added
"Eject Disk" options.

be used as ringtones).
* Added configurable button and key mappings to fMSX-Symbian.
* fMSX-Symbian application menu is now split into three pages.
New in fMSX 3.1

* Added autofire options for joystick buttons.
* fMSX-Windows has got a new menu-based GUI, improved sound, and faster
graphics updates.
* Fixed USB joypad support in fMSX-Windows.
* fMSX-MSDOS now uses 16BPP screen mode.
* Updated the documentation.
New in fMSX 3.0
* Added transparent support for GZIPped disk images as disks. You can now
pass .GZ file names in -diska/-diskb command line options.
* Added transparent support for directories as disks (thanks to Miguel
Colom). You can now pass directory names in -diska/-diskb command line
options. Changes to such disks will not be saved for safety reasons.
* Added DirectDraw-based full screen mode to fMSX-Windows. Press [ALT]+
[ENTER] to switch in and out of the full screen mode. Use it with caution,
as DirectDraw is notoriously unstable.
* Added a full-fledged debugger to fMSX-Windows. Press [F11] to invoke the
debugger.
* Fixed several bugs in MIDI implementations that made some games silent when
logging soundtrack or using MIDI output in fMSX-Windows.
* Better adapted fMSX-MSDOS to 320x200 VGA screen.
* "Sync to VBlanks" option is now default in fMSX-MSDOS.
New in fMSX 2.8
* Fixed initial envelope volume in AY8910.c, thanks to Koichi Nishida.
* Fixed a problem with 8kB/16kB cartridges failing to execute in the MSX1
mode.
* When guessing a MegaROM mapper type, fMSX now tries to look at a data file
CARTS.CRC containing pairs of cartridge CRCs and mapper types.
* Added support for the third cartridge slot. You can now give up to three
cartridge names on the command line and three -rom options.
* Cartridges are now inserted into slots 1:X (A), 2:X (B), and 3:0 (C). The
RS232.ROM has been moved to slot 3:3.
* Added support for the 64kB Panasonic FM-PAC cartridge with 8kB SRAM (-rom
7).
* fMSX loads files FMPAC.ROM, MSXDOS2.ROM, and PAINTER.ROM automatically, as
long as they are in the program directory and there is an empty cartridge
slot available.
* Added support for ASCII/8kB cartridges with 8kB SRAM (Xanadu, Royal Blood).
Please, inform me if this has broken support for any "normal" ASCII/8kB
cartridges.
* Added support for ASCII/16kB cartridges with 2kB SRAM (Hydlide 2). Please,
inform me if this has broken support for any "normal" ASCII/16kB
cartridges.
* All battery-backed SRAM save files have now got .SAV extension. For
example, GameMaster2.rom will produce a SRAM file named GameMaster2.sav.
* Added reporting of bad memory writes with -verbose 8.
* The R-Type cartridge and its variants are supported by the ASCII/16kB
MegaROM mapper (-rom 5).
* HAL's Hole In One Special cartridge is supported by the GENERIC/16kB
MegaROM mapper (-rom 1).
* Konami's Majutsushi (aka Mah Jong 2 or RC765) cartridge is supported by the
GENERIC/8kB MegaROM mapper (-rom 0), although the D/A audio circuit
emulation is not implemented.
* Added fast-forwarding option ([F9]) and moved fixed font switch to a
different key ([CONTROL]-[F9]).
* Changed [F6],[F9],[F10] assignments in fMSX-Windows to comply with other
fMSX ports.
* Added Options menu to fMSX-Windows.
* fMSX-FreeBSD now compiles without changes on FreeBSD 5.x (FreeBSD 4.x users
may have to change the location of the soundcart.h).
* Fixed sound in fMSX-FreeBSD by increasing the number of sound fragments
from 8 to 64. If any of FreeBSD developers are reading this, could you
explain why this is needed?
New in fMSX 2.7
* Switched to the latest version of the OpenWatcom C/C++ compiler.
* The infamous Windows problem with spaces in directory names seems to be
fixed by using a newer compiler.
* Made some arrays "const" to facilitate porting to run-from-ROM platforms
(cellphones, PDAs, etc.).
* Joystick problems in fMSX-Windows are fixed.
* Descreased the default sound volume in fMSX-Unix.
* Increased the default wave synthesis frequency to 44.1kHz.
* Minor fixes to the Unix sound drivers.
* Removed MIDI volume control from Windows sound drivers.
* Added TV raster effect to fMSX-Windows.
New in fMSX 2.6
* Added separate (and correct) emulation for the i8255 PPI chip.
* Added masking to lower bits of video table addresses.
* Added timing and other fixes to the Z80 core (courtesy of Omar Cornut).
* Fixed line coincidence and VBlank handling (thanks to Vincent van Dam).

New in fMSX 2.5
* Added emulation state saving and loading.
* Added support for GZIPped ROM files and state file.
* Changed keyboard handler in fMSX-Unix. Hopefully, the key assignments
should now be more natural.
* Added sound on/off switch to fMSX-Unix and fMSX-MSDOS.
* Keyboard assignments changed everywhere.
* added Axlon and Mosaic RAM expansions for Atari 400/800

* added emulation of XEP80 and a prototype 80 column card
for the Atari 1090 (SDL only currently)
* added emulation of CX85 numeric keyboard (Java and SDL only)
* event recording added (-record, -playback): save your game walkthrough
using the "-record mygame.dat" and later impress your friends by
your game skills or highest score using the "-playback mygame.dat"
* NTSC Filter option added to UI
* -directmouse added to SDL and X11 (used for -mouse pad or koala)
* monitor supports arrow keys - e.g. up-arrow for history
* SDL: interpolated scanlines (use -scanlinesnoint to disable)
* SDL: added -mouse, -mousespeed, -grabmouse (also Alt+M)
* SDL: visual configuration of keyboard joysticks layout in the UI

* R: device now supported on MS Windows and Dreamcast as well
* a completely new port to Java using NestedVM, running also as an applet
* Falcon/TT: removed Devpac dependency in asm files (now gcc friendly)
0.8.C:
SMS: Fixed the input and reset emulation when the territory was
set to "domestic"(Japan) and FM emulation was enabled; the emulated system was erroneously
being treated as a Game Gear in a few places when those conditions were met.
GB: Fixed initialization of "HRAM" on virtual power toggle/reset.
GB: Fixed a bug(still many left) in the external RAM handling code, fixing an
emulator crash with "Wizards & Warriors - Chapter X".
0.8.C-rc1:
NGP: Fixed an unaligned memory access bug in the memory r/w handlers, causing crashes on platforms
that do not support unaligned memory accesses.
NES: Fixed an intialization bug in mapper 193.
Added define "ALWAYS_INLINE" to force the compiler to always inline speed-critical functions, and added it to
many emulation functions in that category. gcc can be a pain in the butt.
GBA: Fixed a bug that would cause data corruption and the loaded game to crash whenever a state was
saved(but the state itself, and loading it, was fine) on a big-endian platform.
Fixed several instances of mismatches between format strings and passed argument types, which could cause
nonsensical information to be printed on big-endian platforms, and perhaps some little-endian platforms as well.
Fixed the minimum field-width specifier on the statements that print the loaded game's CRC32 in several
places.
Added the "format(...)" function attribute to the MDFN_DispMessage(), MDFN_PrintError(), and MDFN_printf()
function prototypes to catch format string errors.
Fixed the order of the sound drivers in the documentation(it was erroneously implying that OSS had a higher
priority than ALSA for the default sound driver), and added various notes to explain the sound drivers.
If an invalid "sounddriver" is selected, Mednafen will now print an error message and not initialize sound
instead of silently selecting the default sound driver.
SexyAL: Altered the argument order of SexiALI_Convert() to make more sense.
Fixed the broken conversion code used when the frame count passed to Write() is greater than 2048.
Fixed a bug/design flaw in the SexyAL SDL sound driver that can cause a crash during program
deinitialization.
Added support for "float" output format to the ALSA driver.
The ALSA driver will now try all formats that SexyAL's conversion code supports if the desired
format is not supported by the output device, rather that simply erroring out as before.
Added support for converting to 24-bit and 32-bit PCM output formats from the source format(which
is still fixed to signed 16-bit).
The driver function RawCanWrite() is now passed a pointer to a uint32_t, which it sets to the number
of bytes that can be written without blocking, rather than returning the value directly, so that
the return value can be used as a success/failure indicator.
The driver function RawWrite(), and the "user" function Write(), will now return 1 on success, 0 on
(fatal) error, rather than returning the amount of data written.
The OSS driver was testing the return value of open() incorrectly. Fixed.
SexyAL is now compiled as C++(but doesn't use many C++ features yet), which necessitated
adding several explicit casts in various code, and fixing some inconsistent function prototypes and
declarations.
JACK: Fixed a stereo playback crashing problem(a loop count was being calculated incorrectly).
JACK: Switched to using jack_client_open() instead of the deprecated jack_client_new().
JACK: The "sounddevice" setting is now used, to specify the JACK server to connect to.
JACK: Fixed a possible race condition in RawCanWrite().
JACK, SDL: Changed the inter-thread ringbuffer setup to be less likely to underrun, while not hurting
latency.
JACK, SDL: Additional playback position precision is now obtained by using
jack_get_time()/SDL_GetTicks(). This will improve Mednafen's performance with larger fragment sizes
with these drivers, but smaller fragment sizes are still preferred for latency-to-underrun-occurrence-ratio
reasons.
Renamed the "byteorder" field of SexyAL_format to "revbyteorder", and changed it to a boolean type,
to avoid confusion over what it actually represents.
Removed erroneous dependency on CD-ROM emulation when WonderSwan emulation is enabled in the configure script.
Added sanity checks to the first track number and total track count returned from libcdio, to prevent
a crash in Mednafen if the libcdio driver fails and returns nonsensical values.
Removed unused file sms/state.h
Fixed a very-old bug that caused joystick unique ID collisions if more than 2 of the same "type" of physical
joystick were available.
Fixed a string constant-to-(char *) problem in sms/romdb.h.
Mednafen is now compiled with -fsigned-char, to prevent any potential problems on systems with an "unsigned" char
type as default.
The included Tremor is now compiled with "-fvisibility=hidden" to work around a dynamic symbol collision
problem with libsndfile(BUT, -fvisibility is only available in gcc 4.0 and newer).
This solution may not be correct...
Updated Tremor to the latest SVN version.
PC-FX: Added a semi-hack to fix a missing background layer problem in parts of "Angelique Special". The
underlying problem(no emulation of the programmable BG0 subscreen) will be corrected in 0.9.0.
PC-FX: Removed the unused V810 cache structures(Mednafen 0.9.0 will feature cache emulation, however).
PC-FX: Added a few CPU variables to save states whose absence could have caused netplay/movie desynch.
PCE: Fixed virtual power-toggle initialization of VCE and gamepad input variables.
PCE, PC-FX: Fixed the emulation of SCSI command 0xDE, mode 0x1. The value returned was too small by
2 seconds.
PCE, PC-FX: Fixed the sector count for the last track(which influences the leadout track start position/total
sector count) in multi-track CUE/BIN CDROM images.
PC-FX: Fixed the handler address called when a TRAP instruction is executed.
PC-FX: Fixed the exception code set when an FPU divide-by-zero occurs(previously, it was being set to the
integer divide-by-zero exception code).
Fixed several problems in file.cpp, including buggy and overly-complicated MDFN_read*le() functions,
and a problem with the const-ness of the return value of strrchr() with gcc 4.4.
Changes for version 78
* Fixed an issue where, after failing to load a ROM, the
emulator would be paused forever.
* Added a toggle to joypad configuration to allow or disallow
direct use of modifier keys.
* Changed the option to disable screensaver so that it uses
XResetScreenSaver and xdg-screensaver due to XTestFakeKeyEvent
being removed in the latest X.org release.
Changes for version 77
* Added pt_BR translation. [Tiberio Vitor]
* Fixed a bug where the sound driver would switch from SDL
in the Preferences dialog if one of OSS or PortAudio was not
installed.
Upstream changes:
2.8.4 to 3.0: (September 11, 2009)
* Huge updates to the TIA emulation system. Illegal HMOVEs are now
handled correctly, resulting in improvements to many ROMs (thanks
to Wilbert Pol for many ideas and code for these improvements). All
HMOVE emulation 'cheats' were removed; the emulation is now cycle-exact
in this area.
* Improved emulation of the Cosmic Ark 'starfield effect', also used in
Stay Frosty; the emulation now looks very accurate.
* Many improvements to the normal TIA rendering code, fixing problems
when disabling certain graphical objects (certain objects were
being misdrawn when others were enabled/disabled).
* Improved TIA collision handling in the non-displayable area of the
screen; this fixes problems in RAMRacer ROM.
* Improved TIA redraw problems/graphical garbage when ROMs generate
many more scanlines than a real TV would allow; this fixes problems
in Q-Bert and the recent Playaround demo.
* Added 'Fixed Debug Colors' option similar to the no$26k emulator.
This allows each graphical object to be drawn in a fixed color,
more clearly showing how the objects interact. HMOVE blanks are
also shown in a different color. The TIA now emulates a 7-color
register model, allowing even shared objects to show different
colors. This is toggled with the 'Alt Comma' key.
* Related to 'Fixed Debug Colors', HMOVE blanks can now toggled during
TIA display with the 'Alt-m' key.
* Added rewind functionality to the debugger, where states are saved
after each step/trace/scanline/frame advance. Pressing 'Alt-r' or
clicking the new rewind button will undo up to 100 previous
operations.
* Added 'electron beam indicator' to the debugger TIA output. Basically,
this is a visual pointer indicating the position of the electron gun
when scanning the display.
* Added ability to completely disable fullscreen mode, which fixes
problems for some people where fullscreen mode was being entered
even if it wasn't enabled.
* Added '-joyallow4' commandline argument and associated UI item to
allow all 4 directions to be pressed simultaneously on a joystick.
* Improvements made to the ROM launcher: the backspace key now goes
to the parent directory (this key can be remapped), and previously
selected directories are now automatically selected.
* Added support for 2IN1 bankswitching scheme, where two ROMs are
present in one binary. Currently supported are 2, 4, 8, and 16K
ROMs.
* Added bankswitch support for the 6K version of Starpath/Supercharger
ROMS. This allows the 6K version of Cubis to run.
* Updated bankswitching schemes FASC and MB; they are now known as
FA and F0, respectively. This naming brings Stella in line with
other emulators and programming utilities.
* Fixed editing of cheats in the Cheat Dialog; the old cheat wasn't
being removed.

to be adressed but example programs i had installed before worked fine.
The errors i currently get are:
1 Could not load Mozilla. HTML rendering will be disabled.
2 err:seh:raise_exception Exception frame is not in stack limits => unable to
dispatch exception.
Where 1) is annoying but 2) is more revealing.
It would bomb out on:
freetype.c:166: error: 'FT_MulFix' undeclared here (not in a function)
freetype.c:166: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'pFT_MulFix'
This is due to a newer version of freetype. Patch by Shunichi Fuji. Still
fails to compile on other errors, but one more down.
Changes for version 75
* Fixed screensaver disable option so it doesn't send a fake keypress
when Snes9x isn't focused.
* Changed resolution setting to store width and height instead of
a screen's mode index.
* Fixed a bug where the PortAudio driver wouldn't output sound at
44100hz.
* Allowed changing the behavior of the ESC key so it exits Snes9x.
Changes for version 74
* Fixed a couple thread deadlocking problems in the audio mixer
that could result in no sound.
* Removed the powerof2 function to fix compile problems on OpenBSD.
* Changed fullscreen mode to issue a raise signal to the window
manager after remapping.
Changes for version 73
* Fixed a compile error when XRandR support isn't being built.
* Included Tukuyomi's updated French localization.
Changes for version 72
* Added a new regular-interval audio mixer to significantly improve
sound quality.
* Added a new SDL audio output driver.
Changes for version 71
* Refactored video driver initialization code.
* Removed dependency on gtkglext for OpenGL output.
* Allowed theme icon to be used for window mini-icon.
so include copies here.

Intel 8255A PPI:
- Added a new implementation of the I8255A device. Rewritten from
scratch to properly support handshaking in modes 1 and 2.
- Refactored sg1000a.c to use the new implementation.
Redumped Konami Viper CF and NVRAM for all games and updated drivers.

[Angelo Salese]
Added hardware notes to the Quake Arcade Tournament driver.
[vidpro1, Andrew Gardner]
Added mechanism for the laserdisc core to return 0 for the philips
codes if video is squelched. Updated the Gottlieb and Cliff Hanger
drivers to request it this way, since they decode externally.
[Aaron Giles]
Made a couple of minor tweaks to the Cliff Hanger driver. Fixed
interrupt timing (was not taking into account interlacing) to fix up
glitches in playback and ensure the disk test passes. Added SHA1 and
marked the game as working. [Aaron Giles]
Promoted Final Lap 2 & Final Lap 3 to working since they just require
to init their analog controls (same sequence as Final Lap R).
[Angelo Salese]
Added basic support in bitmap.c for 64-bit indexed bitmaps. As a
result, you will need a full recompile with this change, since the
bitmap formats enum was altered. [Aaron Giles]
Introduced new feature -burnin, which can be used to generate a PNG
that represents the overall brightness seen during the course of
running a game. This PNG can be used as a fake "bezel" that overlays
the screen via the artwork systems (with a low alpha, say 0.1 or 0.2)
to simulate running a game with a monitor that has been burned in
from another game. [Aaron Giles]
Fixed the -crsshairpath option to be spelled properly. [Aaron Giles]

Added IDE Lock mechanism to the IDE Driver in MAME, so games on gnet
v2 bios are working correct now (idectrl.c / idectrl.h) & taitogn.c.
[Joerg Hartenberger]
Further improvements for Shogun Warriors:
[David Haywood, Tomasz Slanina]
-- decoded tables for several of the startup commands, made some
observations, was unable to properly decode table 0x80, second byte
scrambling is .. odd, so just using extract data right now.
-- properly mapped inputs in Shogun Warriors
-- decodes a block of data used by the Japanese version (fjbuster)
for the character select screen. Basically block 0x40 is the same
as mcu block/table 0x41, but using different encryption (inline
encryption table + additional overlay table instead of each byte
being bit shifted)
Updated Jockey Club II notes. [David Haywood, Gerald]
Verified Fruits & Bunny PROM. [f205v]

Removed a kludge from Sengoku Mahjong sound comms [Angelo Salese]
K053936 cleanup and some improvements for Racin' Force [David Haywood]
Marked siseikat prg rom as bad dump. [Angelo Salese]
Added very basic SCC68070 implementation, currently is just a basic
m68k with 32-bits of address lines. The plan is to add the on-chip
peripherals on the magicard.c driver then, when I get some
consistency, hardwire it to the cpu core. [Angelo Salese]
Better fix for Amiga AGA ddf_stop_pixel, to avoid breaking Amiga 1200
startup screen. [Mariusz Wojcieszek]

[R. Belmont]
Adds DIP port locations to Last Duel & Mad Gear sets. [Brian Troha]
Added redumped vf3tb ROMs [Guru]
Tokimeki Mahjong Paradise driver improvements:
- split tmmjprd / tmpdoki from rabbit.c as it uses the graphic chip
in a very different way, and having them together was making it
more difficult to make progress on [David Haywood]
- changed them to use custom rendering code instead of tilemaps, as
they can address tile data at a sub-tile level, this fixes the
girls in the intro [David Haywood]
- added inputs [Angelo Salese]
- added some notes about a hang, and possible reason [David Haywood]
- marked the graphic roms of tmpdoki as BAD as it appears to be
using tiles which are not present in the tmmjprd roms for the
title screen [David Haywood]
ARM (26-bit): TST/TEQ should only update flags. This eliminates the
need for patches in poizone/ertictac, all deco32 games still run
(including hvysmsh), and it better matches the documentation.
[R. Belmont]
Updated the Led Storm Rally 2011 set with the new roms as per the
Guru's info. Marked this game as GAME_IPERFECT_GRAPHICS due to the
bad sprite ect. [Brian Troha]
Corrected p911uc compact flash dump by Guru. [Angelo Salese]
Added fade in/fade out effects for tmmjprd [Angelo Salese]
Document the Pacman on Tecmo World Cup '90 hardware. Lists the roms
plus CRC32 / SHA1 in the comment section to prevent it from turning
up as a newly "found" game and to show users MAME is aware of it
existence. [Brian Troha]
Add gun I/O board to Teraburst and hook up 68k/PPC comms. Not sure how
the guns are read yet but this fixes the CALL ATTENDENT immediate
death and the game runs fine now. [R. Belmont]
Changes to support address maps for arbitrary devices: [Aaron Giles]
- Moved address_map array from cpu_config to device_config. Added MDRV
macros in the device for specifying address maps. Changed the memory
system to fetch the maps from the new location.
- Moved the address-space related get_info constants to devintrf
(including endianness). Removed space array from the CPU class
header. Made the memory system much more device-neutral. Various
other cleanups along the way.
- Expanded address maps from 3 to 4. Moved ADDRESS_SPACE_PROGRAM/DATA/
IO constants to cpuintrf, as those names are really only applicable
to CPUs. Added new ADDRESS_MAP_0/1/2/3 constants to identify address
maps more generically.
- Updated memory system to be more general about address map handling.
Added the concept of default address maps (in addition to the
already existing internal memory maps). The difference between
internal and default memory maps is that internal memory maps always
override everything (including user-specified maps), but default
memory maps simply provide a default that can be overridden.
- Converted the okim6295 sound driver to use address maps for access.
By default, it defines a ROM address map that overlays its full
region. As a result, the validity checks require all okim6295
regions to be at least 256k, unless you provide your own address
map. Updated all regions to meet this requirement.
- Updated the atarijsa code to use a custom address space for its
okim6295 accesses (which are banked on the first half and static on
the second half), as an example of configuring a device with a
custom address space.
- For now, attempts to use okim6295_set_bank_base() will still work,
though banking for the okim chips should be moved to custom address
maps in the drivers eventually. The first time
okim6295_set_bank_base() is called, it will install a banked memory
handler over the region and use memory_set_bankptr() to change the
base on subsequent bank switches.
- Moved address map validity checks to be run for each device instead of
just each CPU.
Removed PREDECODE_GFX compile flag, as the on-the-fly decoding seems
to be working reliably. Deprecated the ROMREGION_DISPOSE flag, as 98%
of the use of it no longer is applicable with on-the-fly decoding,
and the remaining cases are difficult to identify among the others.
[Aaron Giles]
Documentation updates: [Kevin Eshbach]
* For Super Basketball adds the rom locations for those that were
missing before and adds the jumper settings
* Documents the SEGA cpu part number for Future Spy and Super Zaxxon

Fixed Aqua Jet sample ROM loading [skeleton081983]
Fixed a HD6309 core bug/typo in the divq_im opcode. [Romain Tisserand]
Improved Jockey Club 2 driver organization: [David Haywood]
- added different machine drivers for the different sets.
- added an st0016 to the 'older hardware' machine driver, that's
what the 'z80' rom on it is for (see st0016.c) the newer
hardware and bootleg don't use it.
- still waiting for proper gfx dumps

Added mechanism for the laserdisc core to return 0 for the philips
codes if video is squelched. Updated the Gottlieb and Cliff Hanger
drivers to request it this way, since they decode externally.
[Aaron Giles]
Made a couple of minor tweaks to the Cliff Hanger driver. Fixed
interrupt timing (was not taking into account interlacing) to fix up
glitches in playback and ensure the disk test passes. Added SHA1 and
marked the game as working. [Aaron Giles]
Promoted Final Lap 2 & Final Lap 3 to working since they just require
to init their analog controls (same sequence as Final Lap R).
[Angelo Salese]
Added basic support in bitmap.c for 64-bit indexed bitmaps. As a
result, you will need a full recompile with this change, since the
bitmap formats enum was altered. [Aaron Giles]
Introduced new feature -burnin, which can be used to generate a PNG
that represents the overall brightness seen during the course of
running a game. This PNG can be used as a fake "bezel" that overlays
the screen via the artwork systems (with a low alpha, say 0.1 or 0.2)
to simulate running a game with a monitor that has been burned in
from another game. [Aaron Giles]

v2 bios are working correct now (idectrl.c / idectrl.h) & taitogn.c.
[Joerg Hartenberger]
Further improvements for Shogun Warriors:
[David Haywood, Tomasz Slanina]
-- decoded tables for several of the startup commands, made some
observations, was unable to properly decode table 0x80, second byte
scrambling is .. odd, so just using extract data right now.
-- properly mapped inputs in Shogun Warriors
-- decodes a block of data used by the Japanese version (fjbuster)
for the character select screen. Basically block 0x40 is the same
as mcu block/table 0x41, but using different encryption (inline
encryption table + additional overlay table instead of each byte
being bit shifted)
Updated Jockey Club II notes. [David Haywood, Gerald]
Verified Fruits & Bunny PROM. [f205v]

K053936 cleanup and some improvements for Racin' Force [David Haywood]
Marked siseikat prg rom as bad dump. [Angelo Salese]
Added very basic SCC68070 implementation, currently is just a basic
m68k with 32-bits of address lines. The plan is to add the on-chip
peripherals on the magicard.c driver then, when I get some
consistency, hardwire it to the cpu core. [Angelo Salese]

Tokimeki Mahjong Paradise driver improvements:
- split tmmjprd / tmpdoki from rabbit.c as it uses the graphic chip
in a very different way, and having them together was making it
more difficult to make progress on [David Haywood]
- changed them to use custom rendering code instead of tilemaps, as
they can address tile data at a sub-tile level, this fixes the
girls in the intro [David Haywood]
- added inputs [Angelo Salese]
- added some notes about a hang, and possible reason [David Haywood]
- marked the graphic roms of tmpdoki as BAD as it appears to be
using tiles which are not present in the tmmjprd roms for the
title screen [David Haywood]
ARM (26-bit): TST/TEQ should only update flags. This eliminates the
need for patches in poizone/ertictac, all deco32 games still run
(including hvysmsh), and it better matches the documentation.
[R. Belmont]
Updated the Led Storm Rally 2011 set with the new roms as per the
Guru's info. Marked this game as GAME_IPERFECT_GRAPHICS due to the
bad sprite ect. [Brian Troha]
Corrected p911uc compact flash dump by Guru. [Angelo Salese]
Added fade in/fade out effects for tmmjprd [Angelo Salese]
Document the Pacman on Tecmo World Cup '90 hardware. Lists the roms
plus CRC32 / SHA1 in the comment section to prevent it from turning
up as a newly "found" game and to show users MAME is aware of it
existence. [Brian Troha]
Add gun I/O board to Teraburst and hook up 68k/PPC comms. Not sure how
the guns are read yet but this fixes the CALL ATTENDENT immediate
death and the game runs fine now. [R. Belmont]
Changes to support address maps for arbitrary devices: [Aaron Giles]
- Moved address_map array from cpu_config to device_config. Added MDRV
macros in the device for specifying address maps. Changed the memory
system to fetch the maps from the new location.
- Moved the address-space related get_info constants to devintrf
(including endianness). Removed space array from the CPU class
header. Made the memory system much more device-neutral. Various
other cleanups along the way.
- Expanded address maps from 3 to 4. Moved ADDRESS_SPACE_PROGRAM/DATA/
IO constants to cpuintrf, as those names are really only applicable
to CPUs. Added new ADDRESS_MAP_0/1/2/3 constants to identify address
maps more generically.
- Updated memory system to be more general about address map handling.
Added the concept of default address maps (in addition to the
already existing internal memory maps). The difference between
internal and default memory maps is that internal memory maps always
override everything (including user-specified maps), but default
memory maps simply provide a default that can be overridden.
- Converted the okim6295 sound driver to use address maps for access.
By default, it defines a ROM address map that overlays its full
region. As a result, the validity checks require all okim6295
regions to be at least 256k, unless you provide your own address
map. Updated all regions to meet this requirement.
- Updated the atarijsa code to use a custom address space for its
okim6295 accesses (which are banked on the first half and static on
the second half), as an example of configuring a device with a
custom address space.
- For now, attempts to use okim6295_set_bank_base() will still work,
though banking for the okim chips should be moved to custom address
maps in the drivers eventually. The first time
okim6295_set_bank_base() is called, it will install a banked memory
handler over the region and use memory_set_bankptr() to change the
base on subsequent bank switches.
- Moved address map validity checks to be run for each device instead of
just each CPU.
Removed PREDECODE_GFX compile flag, as the on-the-fly decoding seems
to be working reliably. Deprecated the ROMREGION_DISPOSE flag, as 98%
of the use of it no longer is applicable with on-the-fly decoding,
and the remaining cases are difficult to identify among the others.
[Aaron Giles]
Documentation updates: [Kevin Eshbach]
* For Super Basketball adds the rom locations for those that were
missing before and adds the jumper settings
* Documents the SEGA cpu part number for Future Spy and Super Zaxxon

Improved Jockey Club 2 driver organization: [David Haywood]
- added different machine drivers for the different sets.
- added an st0016 to the 'older hardware' machine driver, that's
what the 'z80' rom on it is for (see st0016.c) the newer
hardware and bootleg don't use it.
- still waiting for proper gfx dumps

Discussed and ok'd in thread starting at
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/2009/06/30/msg003546.html
for running several NetBSD ports properly on the emulator. PR pkg/41742
Discussed with and okay'ed by wiz@.
Upstream changes:
The changes between release 0.4.6.6 and 0.4.7 are:
* Motorola 88K emulation is now complete enough to run a guest operating
system: OpenBSD/mvme88k 4.4.
A big thank you goes to Miod Vallat, who sent me physical 88100
documentation, via snail mail. This has been invaluable when implementing
the 88K emulation mode.
The changes between release 0.4.7 and 0.4.7.1 are:
* Applying a man page hypenation patch from Jonathan Wiltshire.
* Minor documentation errors fixed.
* Some more missing M88K instructions added.
* NetBSD/hpcmips can now be installed and run using serial console (i.e.
without -X), in addition to using the framebuffer.
The changes between release 0.4.7.1 and 0.4.7.2 are:
* NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 4.5, and HelenOS 0.4.0 have been released, and the
guest OS page has been updated to reflect this. (Not all versions and
architectures work; the versions listed on the guest OS page are the latest
ones that have been tested.)
* A bug has been fixed which prevented configuration files from being used.
Patches pulled from upstream trunk:
patch-aa:
Applying a patch for setting the ARCBIOS OSLOADPARTITION environment
variable in a more correct way.
http://gxemul.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gxemul?view=rev&revision=5473
This makes NetBSD/arc work on PICA emulation with VGA console.
(more proper fix than the previous patch-aa)
patch-ab:
Better fix for the Cobalt board ID number.
http://gxemul.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gxemul?view=rev&revision=5485
(fixes in the previous patch-ab has been integrated in the latest release)
patch-ac:
Applying a patch which makes NetBSD/hpcmips work well with the clock again.
http://gxemul.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gxemul?view=rev&revision=5472

-----
IMPORTANT NOTE: The CHD format has undergone a change with this
release. The main reason for this change is to include some of the
key metadata into the hashes for the CHDs. This ensures that the
metadata is valid and prevents abuse.
The first impact you will find is that all of your CHD differencing
files are invalid. Just delete your "diff" directory contents
entirely.
The second impact is that all your existing CHDs will warn you that
they have incorrect hashes. This is expected. Your old CHDs should
still work fine, so if you can live with the "bad ROM" warnings, you
don't really need to do anything. However, if this bugs you or you
want to be "clean", you can update your CHDs, using this command
line:
chdman -update <chdfile> <newchdfile>
for each one of your CHDs. This will take a while, but will produce
CHDs that match the new checksums posted in the drivers.

Changed generic NVRAM behavior so that all the variants look for a
memory region named "nvram". If it is found and is of the same length
as the generic_nvram_size, data is copied from there instead of
filling the RAM with the fallback pattern. [Aaron Giles]
Fixed mouse/lightgun buttons to individually select when using

Source Changes
--------------
Documented the www.segaresurrection.com decrypted Ninja Kids II sound
rom so it doesn't show up as newly "found" bootleg version.
[Brian Troha]
Converted downtown, gondo, hbarrel, midres, timesold, topgunbl to use
IPT_POSITIONAL. [Derrick Renaud]
Fixed Analog Settings to return to default when IPT_UI_SELECT (enter)
pressed. Fixed misplaced brackets, allowing upper/lower case
extensions for crosshair graphics and ldplayer chd files.

Memory map merging for naughtyb.c, ssrj.c. [Angelo Salese]
Converted jangou & nightgal drivers to use resistors with the color
proms. [Angelo Salese]
Reverted to older behavior for how modified input port fields are
handled. The originally intended behavior is that a new field that
intersected a previous field would completely wipe out the original
field. Recently a change was made that changed the behavior to only
remove a portion of the bits from the original field. This is actually
problematic behavior, so the original behavior was restored.
[Aaron Giles]
Fixed auto-center bug on analog joysticks. [Derrick Renaud]
Fixed UI when modifying the inc/dec/analog fields of an analog control
in sequence. [Derrick Renaud]
Corrected System 1 Z80 clocking: [Aaron Giles]
* each opcode fetch is 2 cycles with /M1 low, so each byte of
opcode fetching causes slightly longer delays than the previous
tables
* implemented approximate wait state timing for videoram access;
further accuracy will rely on getting a dump of the PAL16R4
that controls the horizontal video timing
Merged memory maps in taito_l.c, taito_x.c, taito_b.c, taito_f2.c,
taito_f3.c, surpratk.c, system16.c, system18.c. Also removed some word
handlers in favor of using READ8/WRITE8 directly in address maps.
Removed some additional unnecessary handlers in favor of using
AM_READ_PORT. [Aaron Giles]
Changed the PPU2C0x implementation to be a device. [Nathan Woods]
Simplified the gun port handling in the Sammy Outdoor Shooting games.
[Derrick Renaud]
Small System 1 update: [Aaron Giles]
* correct video timing
* removed "small" video drivers for games that properly mask the
scrolling areas
Correct sound ROM for T-Mek 4.4 [Lars Bull]
Partial fix to bug MT 3070 (harddriv & racedriv do not show anymore
P2 inputs for analog controls). Still thinking about steeltal.

Technologies used for the Golden Tee 3D series (3D through Classic),
Shuffleshot, World Class Bowling and World Class Bowling Deluxe.
[Guru]
Added PCB layout & hardwared documentation for Atari's Badlands [Guru]
WIP driver for Cubo CD32 [Mariusz Wojcieszek]:
- AGA palette
- AGA bitplane data fetching

Updated video timing in bestbest to match PCB [Guru]
ejsakura fix: added ymz280b_r to memory map to prevent musics to stop
while playing [Cs9ph7Rg0]
nemesis.c fix [Hau]
- Fixed screen priority problems in Kitten Kaboodle.
- Added flip screen & cocktail support.
- Merged memory maps in hyprduel.c
CPU cores are now enabled on a per cpu core family basis instead of
per cpu core variant. As a result CPUDEFS is no longer needed in the
makefile. [Wilbert Pol]
TMS320C25 fixes and enhancements: [Olivier Galibert]
- accept IRQs on IDLE
- actually count irq processing and instruction fetching cycles
- add support for external serial frame sync with internal
triggering (aka TXM=1 and FSM=1).
Updated G-Net CHDs (reset to factory default settings and clear
high-score table) [Guru]
Added description of G-Net card/PCB [Guru]
Fixed crash due to recent cheat engine changes. [Pugsy]

Gameplan improvements: [Tafoid]
- verified and simplified the DIPs, adding locations
- adjusted clocks in Leprechaun and Pirate Treasure based on info
from the manual
Implemented model2 inputs through direct AM_READ_PORT access rather
than using read handlers. The patch also fixes daytona brakes (which
were previously labeled with the wrong tag). [Fabio Priuli]
Simplified input handling in Taito F3 games. [Fabio Priuli]
Various PGM fixes and improvements [XingXing]
Fixed rdft2j2 set, it was using rdft roms instead of the rdft2 ones.
[David Haywood]
Additional PGM improvements: [David Haywood]
- Added emulation of the earlier type of ARM (ASIC27A, 5585E type)
Used this for protection emulation on Photo Y2k, Knights of
Valour Superheroes instead of old simulation code
- Disabled protection simulation for several sets. This demotes
Knights of Valour / Knights of Valour Plus to NOT working as there
is no dump of the internal rom.
- Photo Y2k still works because it's using the emulation added above,
but You can no longer change region as this is supplied by the
ASIC27A device which is now emulated. This is correct.
- Added several new sets, several of which are re-releases of the
games using the ASIC 27A instead of the previous protection
devices. (oldss, killbldp)
- Removed per-game speedup hacks, as they're no longer needed for the
ARM based games to boot correctly.
Fixed core_strwildcmp by increasing the limit from 8 to 16 characters.
[smf]

clock speeds and AY-8910 clock to match recordings. [Tafoid]
Verified DIPs and added locations for Road Fighter. Adjusted defaults
to match the manual. [Tafoid]
In bublbobl, emulated CPU1 (slave) <-> AUDIOCPU communications and
AUDIOCPU reset at startup, previously this was disabled. [Mamesick]
Added samples emulation to Rough Ranger (V2.0), write ports A & B of
YM2203 are used. [Mamesick]
Added game-specific kludge to get music in SD Gundam Psycho Salamander.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The CHD format has undergone a change with this
release. The main reason for this change is to include some of the
key metadata into the hashes for the CHDs. This ensures that the
metadata is valid and prevents abuse.
The first impact you will find is that all of your CHD differencing
files are invalid. Just delete your "diff" directory contents
entirely.
The second impact is that all your existing CHDs will warn you that
they have incorrect hashes. This is expected. Your old CHDs should
still work fine, so if you can live with the "bad ROM" warnings, you
don't really need to do anything. However, if this bugs you or you
want to be "clean", you can update your CHDs, using this command
line:
chdman -update <chdfile> <newchdfile>
for each one of your CHDs. This will take a while, but will produce
CHDs that match the new checksums posted in the drivers.

[David Haywood]
Fixed Heavy Unit main CPU bankswitch. This fixes the enemy appearing
in attract mode. [Mamesick]

something. i.e. button2 in Tetris: can rotate the piece
More Counter Steer progress. [Angelo Salese]
Added PCB layout for Jumping Break and additional information.
Corrected the sound clocks on PCBs that only have a 28MHz OSC. Only
Super Lup Lup Puzzle has the 14.318180MHz OSC. Rearranged the rom
def section to group the F-E1-16-0xx PCB based games in order.
[Brian Troha]
troangel: better support of line scroll with wrap. The scroll offsets

* Modelled ZX Spectrum audio circuit in SwitcherCAD and derived
resistor values for AY-3-8910
MIPS III: Update RA before executing the delay slot. [R. Belmont]
Added inputs for galaxia and astrowar. Galaxia is semi-playable.
Note: After inserting a coin, it can take a few seconds to respond.
[Robbbert]
Fixed build of ldplayer on OS X. Since the CUSTOM sound module no
longer exists, I arbitrarily changed it to WAVE, as ar gets upset if
it has no input files. I also removed the -all_load flag for ldplayer
from the main makefile as it upsets the linker on OS X. [Vas Crabb]
Fix build for PPC64 Linux. (This slightly messes up static branch
prediction hints on OS X and AIX, but OS X for PPC64 is dead, and
no-one builds MAME for AIX, and it will still build, anyway.)
[Vas Crabb]
Paramaterise the arguments to check for NULL in the ATTR_NONNULL macro
rather than just checking the first argument. This requires compiler
support for C99 variadic macros (MSVC2005 and GCC4 have this AFAIK).
[Vas Crabb]
Z80PIO: When outputting from a port to the hardware in pio mode 3,
only those bits defined by the mask should be output. Mame currently
outputs everything. [Robbbert]
Changed the One-Shot List or Selectable value cheats to display "Set"
instead of "Off". Also stopped the cheat options being activated in
order when you are going through the possibilities in this case.
These cheats are now activated by pressing ENTER after you have
chosen an option. [Pugsy]

Changes for version 70
* Changed screensaver disable code again.
* Fixed compilation with --with-debugger.
* Fixed pane colors in preferences.
* Updated French locale. (tukuyomi)
Changes for version 69
* Allow compilation of OSS sound driver on *BSD.
* Avoid extra round-trips to X server to disable the screensaver.
Changes for version 68
* Fixed shared memory leak when using XVideo driver. (kernigh)
* Fixed compilation with the --with-debugger flag.
* Added a 4:3 aspect ratio option for Maintain Aspect Ratio.
* Added several new automatic sizing options to the View menu.
* Added an OSS sound driver, and configuration to select which sound drivers to compile in, and which to use from those built in.
Changes for version 67
* Modified the screensaver disable to only operate when the game is running. Prevents bizarre keycodes from showing up in preferences.
* Added SPC7110 pack directory support.
Changes for version 66
* Added a hack to prevent SuperFX snapshot loads from crashing when pointer size isn't 4 bytes.
* Changed to string literals in some vararg functions to fix strict compiler errors. (Mandriva PLF)
* Changed the --with-debug flag to not strip necessary debugging information.
* Readded the patch to the delta file so it can still be used with other Snes9x-based projects.
Changes for version 65
* Fixed more paths in configure.
* Changed the screensaver disabling code to work with more screensavers/power managers (courtesy of byuu).
* Added a hack to check for SiliconMotion drivers reporting invalid masks in Xv.
Changes for version 64
* Added a few build fixes for OpenBSD courtesy of Kernigh.
Changes for version 63
* Added Tukuyomi's French localization.
* Relicensed to LGPL, and added Snes9x license exceptions. See gtk/doc/LICENSE.
Changes for version 62
* Added axis emulation for joystick hats.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
* Improved SANE scanner support.
* Support for digital CD audio playback.
* Improved cookies management in Wininet.
* Support for building stand-alone 16-bit modules.
* Many fixes to the regression tests on Windows.
* Various bug fixes.
0.8.B:
Fixed the rectangle calculation for screen rotation with Lynx and
WonderSwan to use X scale and Y scale values appropriately (they
were reversed before; also, assuming square pixels on your monitor
;)). Rotation still poses a problem in fullscreen with the default
settings, however.
Fixed an off-by-one error in the software SDL graphics rotation
code (used for Lynx and WonderSwan).
Fixed a race condition that could cause rapid oscillation between
fullscreen and windowed when trying to toggle it.
...and fixed a race condition that could cause oscillations when
rotating the screen with Lynx and WonderSwan emulation.
SexyAL: The return values of ALSA functions are now treated as
errors only if they're less than 0, rather than non-zero as before.
Thanks to R.L. for pointing this out.
The default "nethost" setting is now "fobby.net" instead of
"mednafen.com". The latter was allowed to expire and lost to domain
squatters some time ago. Domain squatters cause desires to commit
grievous face-stabbing. However, the netplay server on "fobby.net"
is not guaranteed to be up. :p
PCE: Added the ability to load a custom colormap(palette) by
setting "pce.colormap" to the path of the colormap file. The
colormap consists of either 512 or 1024 RGB triplets, 8-bits per
color component, in the order R,G,B,R,G,B,R,G,B,... . It is
recommended that the colormap provide all 1024 entries(the first
512 entries are for normal mode, the second 512 entries are for
grayscale/strip-colorburst mode). If it doesn't, Mednafen will
calculate the grayscale colors using a formula similar to that used
with the real VCE, but with more precision. The colormap may be
disabled by setting the "pce.colormap" setting to an empty string,
or 0. Command-line examples:
mednafen -pce.colormap /path/to/blueblue.cmap /yarr/pirate/booty.pce [Enable]
mednafen -pce.colormap 0 /some/where/over/the/rainbow/islands.cue [Disable]
PCE: Added a hack to fix games that try to write to VRAM while
VRAM DMA is in progress (fixes graphical glitches in "Crest of Wolf",
maybe others too?). This could potentially cause regressions, so
please post any on the forum.
PCE: Having "pce.forcesgx" set to 1 with non-SuperGrafx games will
no longer cause problems with display timing(and positioning).
However, this doesn't fix the underlying issue, and any demos that
set the horizontal and vertical timing registers differently on
each VDC won't operate as they would on a real SuperGrafx. (This
could affect commercial SuperGrafx games, but AFAIK they keep the
VDC timings the same). NOTE: Setting "pce.forcesgx" to 1 is still
not recommended, the preferred way of forcing a game/demo to enable
SuperGrafx emulation is by giving it a file extension of "sgx".
PCE: Arcade Card RAM is now initialized to 0 on allocation(it was
erroneously being left uninitialized before).
PCE: Added Arcade Card RAM to the memory editor in the debugger.
PCE: Fixed the BRAM initialization (it was wrong, and generated from
when Mednafen erroneously emulated 8KiB of BRAM). Fixes lockups
in "Sorcerian". Note that if you have any existing save states or
battery-backed RAM files for "Sorcerian" in "sav" or "mcs" under
Mednafen's base directory from when you attempted to run "Sorcerian",
you will need to delete them for this fix to have any effect.
PCE: Reduced the mirroring address space range of the Arcade Card
register mapping in HuC6280 banks 0x40-0x43. It was mirrored
throughout 0x40-0x4F, now it's only mirrored at 0x40-0x47. It may
not be mirrored at all with a real Arcade Card, tests need to be
performed!
Fixes a crashing bug in "Linda Cubed" early into gameplay.
WonderSwan: Fixed a bug that made it impossible to push a direction
on one D-pad while the opposing direction was being pressed on the
other D-pad.
* Gecko engine update.
* Better region support in GdiPlus.
* Support for cross-compilation in winegcc.
* Beginnings of MS Text Framework support.

* Better support for windowless Richedit.
* Improvements to the print dialog.
* Many fixes to the regression tests on Windows.
* Various bug fixes.
Emulation:

-- 0.4.1 -- 2009-01-10
libgambatte:
- Fix HqXx filter pitch.
- Fix mbc2 not getting a rambank.
- Make sure to reset passed pointers when deleted. Fixes potential crash
when loading ROM during OAM busy.
common:
- Substantially improved rate estimation averaging.
- RateEst: Add a convenient way of filtering measures that extend beyond
a buffer time, and are as such probably invalid.
- RateEst: Allow using a custom timestamp in feed().
- RateEst: Keep a queue of the last ~100 msec worth of samples and
duration, and filter out collective samples that give a pre-estimate
that seems way off.
- Replace "Game Boy / Game Boy Color emulator" with "Game Boy Color
emulator" for now to avoid misleading anyone on the current status.
gambatte_qt:
- Disable BlitterWidget updates (paintEvents) while not paused.
- QGLBlitter: Do a cheap front blit rather than a vsynced flip if audio
buffers are low.
- Allow BlitterWidgets to opt in to get paintEvents while unpaused. Do so
for QGLBlitter since it may need to clear buffers afterwards.
- QGLBlitter: Try to blit right after sync in the case of single buffering.
- Up default audio buffer latency to 100 ms (some common system audio
servers require a lot of buffering to work well).
- Adaptively skip BlitterWidget syncs if audio buffer is low, in a manner
that should minimize wasted skips in sync to vblank situation, and tries
to be non-disturbing. This replaces frame time halving, and blitter
specific rescueing.
- Clear display buffers in DirectDrawBlitter and Direct3DBlitter in
exclusive mode, since blits don't necessarily cover the entire buffers.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Make sure that a minimum amount of time has passed
between calls to WaitForVerticalBlank, since it can return in the same
vblank period twice on a fast system.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Support vsync for refresh rate ~= 2x frame rate.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Refactor somewhat and get rid of a couple minor
potential bugs.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Some tweaks to get updates closer to sync time in
certain situations.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Some tweaks to better support DONOTWAIT.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Make only updating during vblank while page flipping
optional.
- Direct3DBlitter: Some tweaks to get updates closer to sync time in
certain situations.
- Filter out very short frame times in frame time estimation.
- Don't adjust frame time during turbo, but rather skip BlitterWidget
syncs to speed up, which avoids vsync limits without disabling vsync.
- DirectDrawBlitter: Add triple buffering option.
- Direct3DBlitter: Use D3DSWAPEFFECT_DISCARD in non-exclusive mode.
- Direct3DBlitter: Allow triple buffering and vblank-only updates in
non-excusive mode.
- Rename "Page flipping" in Direct3D and DirectDraw blitters to
"Exclusive full screen".
- Pause audio on win32 titlebar clicks/drags to avoid looping audio due to
underruns from blocked timerEvents.
- Use wildcards for platform detection to avoid being unnecessarily
compiler/architecture specific. Fixes bug 2377772.
- Rewrite most of DirectSoundEngine, supporting primary buffer option,
making it more robust, correct and hopefully cleaner. Only use part of
the primary buffer if the desired buffer size is lower than the
primary buffer size.
- Direct3DBlitter and DirectDrawBlitter: Force blocking updates when sync
to vblank is enabled. Some updates only block if there's a prior
unfinished update in progress. This screws up frame time estimation in
turn screwing up vsync. To fix this we do a double update (and extra blit)
if close to a frame time period has passed since the last update when
sync to vblank is enabled. I really should have noticed this earlier as
it pretty much breaks vsync adaption completely.
- Direct3DBlitter: Use the D3DCREATE_FPU_PRESERVE flag when creating
device. Omitting this flag can screw up floating point calculations in
other parts of the code. For instance WASAPI cursor timestamps get
utterly screwed up here.
- Direct3DBlitter: It appears that managed textures are updated before
they are unlocked, which screws up redraws, making things appear choppy
in some situations. Use a default memory texture and a system memory
texture and the UpdateTexure method instead.
- DirectSoundEngine: Make use of the sample period limit feature of
RateEst, rather than duplicating the feature.
- Add polling WASAPI engine with exclusive mode support. Latency and rate
estimation is generally better than DirectSound, and in exclusive mode
there is less blocking as well as exclusive mode being better than
shared mode in the other areas too.
- WasapiEngine: Add device selection.
- WasapiEngine: Add static isUsable() method. Only listed if isUsable().
Default engine if isUsable().
- WasapiEngine: Use default device if there's only one device available,
since we don't show the combobox anyway.
- DirectSoundEngine: Provide the integrated read and status get write
method optimization.
- XvBlitter: Set NosystemBackground attribute rather than OpaquePaintEvent.
Reimplement paintEngine to return NULL as suggested by Qt docs.
- X11Blitter: Reimplement paintEngine to return NULL.
- AlsaEngine: Make use of sample period limit feature of RateEst. Don't
increase estimated sample rate on underrun.
- OssEngine: Make use of sample period limit feature of RateEst. Don't
increase estimated sample rate on underrun.
- Esc exits fullscreen on macx.
- Drop OpenAL from default macx binary.
- Add some useful but commented build flags for macx to .pro files.
0.8.A:
NES: Cleaned up the iNES loading code a bit, and added
support for WRAM on a few mappers that nominally shouldn't
have WRAM, enabled if the battery-backed bit is set in the
iNES header. Fixes "Family BASIC", and probably
a few bootleg games as well.
NES: Added partially-broken support for mapper 163.
NES: Added support for mapper 241.
Fixed string constant-to-(char *) problems in drivers/cheat.cpp
Added setting "osd.state_display_time", to control the
length of time, in milliseconds, the save state/movie
screen is displayed after selecting a save state or movie.
The most recently-saved save state slot will now be colored
differently when selecting a save state slot.
Increased the brightness of non-empty save state slots.
Empty save state slots are now black instead of being
partially transparent.
PC-FX: Fixed bugs in "Play Audio Track Index" and "Read
Subchannel" MMC commands, fixing the totally broken
cinematic sequences in "Boundary Gate". There may still
be bugs in these commands that don't cause any known
problems with games, so I will need to run tests on a real
system.
GBA: An error loading the custom colormap file is now
treated as fatal.
Win32: The German and Russian translation files are now
included in the Win32 precompiled binary distribution
ZIP file. Note that Mednafen always assumes the locale to
be UTF-8, so the stdio.txt file will need to be
opened with a viewer that can handle UTF-8(though filenames
with non-7-bit-ASCII components will appear fubar).
(I am aware that assuming the locale's character encoding
to always be UTF-8 is a design flaw with
various insidious consequences when the encoding is not
UTF-8).
Updated the Russian translation with the translation done
by rubicon.
Added configure script option "--enable-altivec/--disable-altivec
(default: enabled)" for compiling on
PowerPC architectures where AltiVec is not supported, or
causes problems. This configure script option is
untested, however.
Input for the virtual device on virtual port N will be
disabled when the buttons on the virtual device on virtual
port N are being configured. The last button pressed when
in button configuration may still be taken as
virtual device input, however(a fix for this would be too
invasive, and so will be done in the 0.9.x unstable
tree).
PCE: Added several missing input-related state variables
to save states, fixing several netplay/movie
desynchronization issues under certain situations.
Fixed a bug when creating an SDL source surface, whose
negative effects(clipping rightmost columns) could be
triggered when the "sdl" vdriver setting was used with
certain xscale and yscale settings that would
cause a 1:1 pixel copy operation.
PC-FX: Improved PSG LFO emulation again(Tyoushin Heiki
Zeroigar uses it for some sound effects, other
games likely use it as well in similar roles).
PCE: Improved PSG LFO emulation again(Hanii in the Sky,
Juuouki, and Flash Hiders use LFO).
PCE: Altered the Street Fighter 2 autodetection code to be
data-agnostic. The SF2 mapper will now be enabled for
any ROM images 2MiB and over in size.
Fixed a call to putenv(), to pass a static character array
initialized to a string constant instead of a string
constant directly.
Fixed a few argument descriptions(invoked with the -help
command-line switch) that weren't properly gettextized.
Debugger: Fixed a bug in the trace log code. It would
cause the emulator to lock up if the user pressed
Enter/Return in the prompt popup without any text in the input field.
SMS: Removed the old unused Z80 emulator code from when
SMS Plus was assimilated.
* Some simple 64-bit apps should now run.
* Support for subpixel font rendering.
* 64-bit code generation in the IDL compiler.
* New version of the Gecko engine.
* Various bug fixes.

(including DOS, Windows 3.x and Win32 executables) on Unix. It consists
of a program loader which loads and executes an Microsoft Windows binary,
and a library that implements Windows API calls using their Unix or X11
equivalents. The library may also be used for porting Win32 code into
native Unix executables.
c99 style-inline functions are in effect (e.g. on Darwin and when
__GNUC_STDC_INLINE__ is defined).
(this was reported back when 3.8 came out on the simh mailing list,
so hopefully Bob Supnik and crew will include a fix in the next release,
when ever that is.)
Changes:
- Applying a patch from Kiyotaka Inaba which causes an ARM UND
exception to be generated by the instruction word 0xe6000011, which
is needed by gdb when running inside the emulator. Also enabling
ARM UND exceptions for ARM floating point instructions (needed by
both Linux and NetBSD/arm).
- Fix for a free() bug in bootblock_iso9660.c. Updating the
OpenBSD/landisk installation instructions from 4.2 to 4.4, after
verifying that it works.
Based on PR 39750 and some clean up.

Due to small issue with gxemul (PCI registers values of piix
controller are not saved having been written) FreeBSD in
gxemul panics after detecting IDE devices. Apply this patch to
fix it...
Bump PKGREVISION.
Unknown why it was using this.
This closes PR 39571 and PR 37786.
Another suggestion is to use pkgsrc's MACHINE_ARCH.
(Not completely tested on DragonFly as this still doesn't build
due to wrong gcc.)
Also note this release is not the latest.
2008-08-30
* Joystick buttons for x and y axis control can be reassigned,
too. This is especially useful if you want to use digital
buttons instead of an analog controller. Thanks to Jon Chalos.
* Fall back to non-accelerated YUV overlay, if no hardware-accelerated
is available. This is much slower but a modern machine should
be fast enough and it's better than having no fullscreen mode
at all.
* The command-line parameter '-c' wasn't handled properly, so
it didn't work at all.
* Don't link against X11 libraries if compiling the SDL
user-interface.
2007-01-18
* Applied fix by Barry for the ABCD instruction. This fixes,
for example, the odd characters in the score count of Streets
of Rage as reported by bootsector.

Thanks to Fibonacci for reporting this.
* Reduced noisy blips that may happen whenever an underrun of
the audio buffer occurs.
* Fixed crash that would happen if the filename of the ROM did
not contain a dot.
* Fixed endian issue with big endian platforms introduced by
previous changes.
* Added simplistic support for reassigning joypad/joystick
buttons. Look for joy[12]_{a,b,c,start,left,right,up,down} in
~/.genrc.

Lots of changes, including
Hatari version 1.0.0
Version 1.0.0 of the Atari ST, STE, TT and Falcon emulator Hatari has
been released. A lot of things have been changed this time:
The user's configuration files are now located in the directory ~/.hatari/
[...]
Hatari version 0.95
Hatari version 0.95 has been released. This release brings you basic
Atari TT and Falcon emulation! Please note that both new emulation
modes are still highly experiemental,some few games and demos work,
but most still have more or less big problems. Basic emulation of
Falcon video shifter (Videl), NVRAM and DMA sound is in place. The
biggest drawback: There is no working Falcon DSP emulation yet.
[...]
Throw out a few options which are pointless (fixed{video,fast}ram) since they
are only minimally relevant to JIT, or broken (blitsdlblit, blitmemmove).
Patch posix shell script instead of requiring bash.
Make OpenGL support an option.
Emutos has to be downloaded from http://emutos.sourceforge.net/en/download.htm
- use SQLite3 instead of Berkeley DB
- optionally TorrentZip ROM set
- mkmamedb: add support for ROM Management Datafile format
- mkmamedb: add support to read dat files from zip archives

- ckmame: fix finding ROMs that need detectors from superfluous and extra
- change to 3-clause BSD license
This lets me launch Diablo II on an EeePC, which runs menus at 800x600 but
allows the actual game itself to run at 640x480, without hooking up an
external VGA monitor.
Add missing dep on libxml2.
Also merge some stuff from wip/wine:
- more options (esound, ldap, dbus, ssl, x11)
- split PLIST to accomodate extra files on Linux and FreeBSD (PR pkg/36320)
This also fixes the broken build against current openldap. (PR pkg/38025)

PC-FX: Several variables related to subchannel reading weren't
being saved in save states. Fixed. (This fixes save states made
within the BIOS' CD-DA player)
PCE: Altered how the ADPCM read and write addresses are set.
Fixes the Super CD version of "Tengai Makyou Ziria", and "CD Mahjong
Bishoujo Chuushinha". Thanks to Exophase and ChrlyMac for the
tips. ***(This change may potentially cause regressions. If it
does, please report them at http://forum.fobby.net )***
PC-FX: Fixed a few deprecated const string to char* conversions
in v810_cpuD.cpp.
PCE: Fixed a bug with Arcade Card emulation with a tip from
Exophase. The ADPCM sound effects in Garou Densetsu II work
correctly now.
PCE: Reads from the timer count register the cycle it is set to
reload after expiring will now return 0x7F. Fixes "Battle Royale".
Changes since 0.4.6.1:
* Applying a patch from Oleksandr Tymoshenko for the wdc device, fixing the
order of 16-bit words within 32-bit words in the identify struct, and the
error register is not cleared on reads any more.
* The disk device used in the test machines can now access disk images
larger than 4 GBs when emulating 32-bit architectures (as suggested by
Julian Elischer).
* For ARM emulation, a special case for PC-relative load which wasn't
implemented before has now been implemented. (The problem could be
triggered by attempting large builds using NetBSD's pkgsrc inside e.g.
NetBSD/cats.)
* The ARM 'bkpt' instruction has been implemented (patch from Jiri Svoboda).
patches to add it). Drop pax from the default USE_TOOLS list.
Make bsdtar the default for those places that wanted gtar to extract
long links etc, as bsdtar can be built of the tree.
