It started by ffman1985 scripts. Found a way to make them compatible with the normal cps2 versions and not just the phoenix versions. Then he noticed the sound associations didn't work well in cps2, normal since they were never really tested. He says there is a site in the internet with re-arranged versions of the cps2 tracks which sounds very nice with the associations... so they are fixed now, it was much easier than neogeo, their major commands stay the same for all drivers. Then I used the cheats to convert some region bytes switches to some regions which can be changed in raine gui, it allowed to identify region clones, that is clones whose only difference is the region byte itself, and get rid of them since we can now change the region to whatever we want. Notice some games like choko don't have english texts for the non japenese versions, which is not a surprise. Then there was the problem of some long standing graphical glitches because of the dreaded priority masks. So I finally added some emulation for these priority masks, it's quite amazing that the driver worked quite well without them for all this time actually ! (and thanks go to mame for their code, even if I couldn't believe it for very long, they probably spent a long time to find this). Except that : - the list of games now using the console scripts from ffman1985 is longer, see his thread for details. Here it is : hsf2d, sf2cejc, sf2ce, sf2hfj, sf2hf, sf2j, sf2, sf2ad, sfa, sfz2ald, sfz2alj, sfz2al, ssf2ud, ssf2xjd, ssf2xj, xmcotar1d - progear had been broken for 1 year ! It's now fixed. - the ips files can now be bps files when referenced in a .dat file. If you don't know what bps files are, never mind ! - some minor fixes in the multiple files selector for "load ips dat files" - since they never fixed sdl2_image 2.6.x which does not return palettes anymore for 256 colors png, I finally merged the right version of their load_png function to be able to keep the color cycling in the raine dialog on systems with a recent sdl2_image (linux only !) - raine can optionally be compiled using clang, it's mainly useful for debuging - add back button in game controllers to switch between dialog headers and main parts in the gui - Plus some minor stuff... ! That was quite a big update this time : http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html Also both appimage files, 32 bits and 64 bits have been updated to 0.95.5, and there was a small problem in the makefile which forced me to make a 0.95.5b version just for the linux packages.

MAMEUI Classic 0.255.0 has been released. Fixed a crash with some sliders: Gamma, Brightness, Contrast etc Available at https://messui.1emulation.com

MAMEUI Classic 0.254.0 has been released. I decided to try a different distribution method this time. You can get it from our download section:

Most of the changes in this one are for the dos version and were released as 0.96.6 for dos anyway, but : - fixed an amazing bug for pengo which was here since 0.43.2, that was in september 2005 !!! See the thread in the forum if you want details. - galaga will now display a message when loaded if it can't find anything for the explosion sample, you can ignore it, it's for info. - gui fixes : games states, transparency, length of game title + size at bottom of screen. - a new "color theme", it was just because I noticed the dos version had actually 3 color themes, but it was done simply by rotating the colors rgb values, here it's a little more involved. Anyway the red theme had been forgotten in the sdl versions... http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

All the motivation of mer-curious brought this, it's mainly for samsho2pe, "samurai shodwon II perfect hack v1.8", thanks to the info found in final burn neo. This is a special hack this time since it adds a new memory rom mapping to the neogeo driver, never seen before in raine. Except that I got rid of index_roms.html finally, this file was here as a quick way to get the roms sizes, but actually using the head http command is more efficient (!), and got a proper fix for this weird green screen bug that mer-curious had in windows for way too long... ! That's all folks !!! http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

Didn't think of anything, it can read command.dat, but not display it ! So it's enough, updated the download page, it appears below the 2 other binaries, 2.4 Mb, including history.dat and hiscore.dat, these 2 are handled. http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

Just a notice about the talk of the other day about android : raine would work almost out of the box on the steam deck, it's an amd cpu, running linux arch, and this is what is supported here by default ! Ok, it's not like using a phone which is already useful for some other uses, but for those interested, it just works. I don't own one so I can't give some step by step instructions on how to install, but it's probably quite easy. It's probably worth mentioning this !

MAMEUI Classic 0.259.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com Note: Official MAME isn't released yet, don't know when it will be, so I might have missed some late changes that haven't happened yet. I didn't feel like waiting around as I have better things to do.

Gunbarich is a new psikyosh game, so 32 bits only, it's a crazy breakout, but with the standard joystick as input. Except that the fixes : - fixed loading roms from internet archive when there are multiple rom names known and the 1st is not the one in internet archive, I noticed this one while doing a new raine install at a friend's... ! This bug was added in 0.96.2 because I wanted to have a visible error when the rom size wasn't found, well it wasn't found for all these games with multiple names ! - fixed a crash in the 32 bits version when trying to use any game using the 6502 cpu, there was a conflict between the 6502 and the sh2 because of an endif and a misplaced break... ! Also I started to add daraku, but this one uses a new type of layer, with line/row scroll too, so it's too much for me for now, the game is loadable, but doesn't work. http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

Wow, this one was hard ! For those who have read the topic about the sh2 version, this is it, except finally there was no serious bug in the sh2 emulator, it was related to the cache read which is very specific to the saturn and which is useless here and which gave me an error very hard to understand, but finally it's over... So in the end the sh2 additions are for the 32 bits version only, as planned. It might be possible to add the sh2 emulator from kronos for the 64 bits version, but I lacked time and motivation to do that lately. It's still possible it will eventually happen in the future, but not guaranteed, in case you didn't notice there are things going on around here which prevent me from doing what I want lately, and it's very possible that I stop raine soon. It was an incredible adventure anyway, I would never have thought that it would have lasted for so long ! To be more precise about the new stuff : gunbird2, strikers 1945 iii, tetris the grand master 2 and 2+, sol divide, and dragon blaze are added and playable. Dragon Blaze has some serious graphical glitches, I didn't emulate everything for the video emulation in this driver, but I decided it has been long enough since the last version and it's really time to release something now. This version uses "gens sh2", which is the sh2 emulator from Stéphane Dallongeville. The new games have hiscores saving, history, and cheats. Console support for the new sh2 is partial, but it's enough to get all this. Except that the 64 bits version gets what was discussed before summer but never released in a binary form, mostly some text updates from mer-curious, the additions of some samurai shodown clones (samsh5fe & samsh5pf), some surprising fix for the neocd games with a width of 320 (most neocd games have a with of 304 pixels), sgemf region bytes and the region clones are removed for this game, and the console mode script for sgemf from ffman1985, all this has been in git since june, but if you don't compile it's the 1st official binary release. Of course all this is also in the 32 bits version, but the 32 bits version is the only one getting the sh2 stuff since it's in x86 assembly language. http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html linux builds updated, the 32 bits version obliged me to make a 0.96.0a because of a stupid bug in xgettext which refuses to accept an utf8 character in an input file when it should, and the 64 bits build obliged me to make a 0.96.0b because gens_sh2 was not correctly disabled for the 64 bits build in linux ! What a mess, but anyway everything is updated now.

Earlier than what I thought because of some rather big bug found, but I took the opportunity to fix a few more things : - fixed the hiscore saving for tgm2 / tgm2p (a new @delay command in the hiscore.dat for these 2) - fix a crash when starting acrobatm or any game in the nmk driver actually, and fixed an older bug which prevented these games from starting - Finally added the roms info so that the new sh2 games can be downloaded from internet archive http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

MAMEUI64 0.262.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com Dropped the "classic" name, now it will say 32 or 64 depending how it's compiled, same as ARCADE does.

I don't have Windows 11 due to Microsoft limitations, so MAMEUI is not officially supported on that OS. However I assume that other people know if it works or not. I've never heard of the black screen problem but assume it's a local issue with your video. Let's see if anyone else knows something.

here is a download for the new roms. [code]https://www.sendspace.com/file/b31gz8[/code]

I had a look at this PCem, it indeed looks interesting, but where is the documentation ? Since there is no interface, how do you want to use this without any documentation ?!!! Even in the forum there is no basic documentation, no default configuration file, nothing, it's quite extreme ! I found the github repository containing all the bioses but they are useless without a minimum set of documentation... If you have a link on how to start using this thing, I am interested... ! Ok, understood, you need the windows version to get the interface, the guys who wrote this are heavily addicted to microsoft... ! But the good news is that it runs fine in wine, and so I can create the config file this way ! Crappy way to do things though... ! After testing on a pentium2-300 with pcem (splendid emulation of the machine this time, this emulator is really THE emulator for dos), gunbird2 runs perfectly with a solid 60 fps. I saw a zooming problem during the intro, specific to this dos version (the flying carpet man while he approaches), I don't know why, but at least it runs smoothly with a serious margin, even with sound (soundblaster 16, 22 Khz). For reference, this sh2 runs at 57/2 MHz, but with almost all instructions taking only 1 cycle (risc), so I'd say it's equivalent to at least twice this frequency for a "normal" cpu. Which means good emulation, raine honor is safe ! I thought about trying some heavy optimizations on this one, I didn't want to do it first because the driver would loose in readability and I didn't think it would make a big difference. After this test I am sure I don't need to do it ! Thanks for the info on pcem though, not sure it will be useful soon because maintaining the dos version today would be crazy as I said, but it's good to know there is a way to test this properly. For info the linux version sucks, no configuration manager which makes it useless alone, and when I try to run it with the config created in wine, it just crashes without any message. As I said these guys are heavily addicted to microsoft, but their program is good anyway (the windows version!) The only advantage of dosbox is that you don't need to create a disk image, but the emulation is less precise for sure on this kind of thing, I could even select a mach 64 gx to have 2d acceleration and then run univbe on it using pcem, quite impressive, even if I was limited to 512x384 16bpp for this test, but it was enough (and the resolutions < 512x384 in 8bpp are all broken in vesa3 for some reason, it seems their emulation isn't totally perfect here). But all this is quite impressive compared to what we had so far ! edit : PCem being quite fascinating to use, I fixed the crash in 8bpp, and the black sprites in 16 bpp for the dos version, this was just that color depths other than 32bpp were badly handled, and 8bpp was crashing because of an overflow in the color map. It's likely that other 24bpp games have problems in 8bpp in dos then, maybe I'll check that later. About 60% cpu free during most the intro on a pentium2-300 in 8bpp, I'd say it runs quite well ! The colors look a little pale in 8bpp, it's normal, it's the effect of the color conversion to fit all this in a 256 colors palette, switch to 16 bpp if you want bright colors ! I didn't find a way to mount directly a vhd in linux yet, I found something on the net about that but it doesn't seem to work, so I work on the vdi used by virtualbox, and then convert it to vhd for PCem using some virtualbox tool, really sub-optimal, but even if that's quite a lot of steps, it's quick to do and manageable. Oh well, I think I'll be able to stop here for now ! The proper way to mount a vhd in linux : https://devicetests.com/mount-virtual-hard-disk-ubuntu (method 1 works perfectly).

1) Yeah I didn't test it, it would be easier to just remove the option... ! Don't worry, I'll test it... 2) did you at least read what I wrote about editing the colors or reverting to the default themes for that ? Either edit your bg color or revert, or even better revert 1st, and if it's still not enough for you then edit the bg color manually. 3) Nope obviously, didn't do it (boring and uninteresting, but yeah should be done one day). Yeah that's what he is already, and he loves that, too bad he can't code to help to fix these things... !

Well finally I got curious about that, why not unleash all the crazy transparency from opengl instead ? And I got this : You have 2 menus and 1 dialog overlapping each other (you can see a very small part of the main menu at the very top, the top of the "Load game" line), plus some moving lines in the background, and the whole thing takes 0% cpu, because transparency was made in software mode in sdl1 but here it's in hardware mode and all this is natural for opengl... ! I had to make the dialogs more opaque to preserve some readability, so you'll have to go to gui options / colors / revert to, to reset the alpha channel to its new default value, either that or adjust the bg color manually (I fixed the color dialog, it was broken since the switch to sdl2, the colors are handled differently in sdl2 and nobody noticed, oh well...). Maybe that's a little too much ? I'll wait a bit, but for now I think it's still very readable ! edit : finally I had to limit myself and revert to something more like what there was with the sdl1 gui, that is : draw the background menu only if the top most menu is a dialog (that is, it has black title bar attached to the menu, no top or bottom frame on screen). The reason is the game selection dialog, the main menu was hiding most of the background picture, which makes the feature useless. That's that, or remake completely differently this game selection dialog. Maybe one day, but not soon for sure... !

I would advise a cable-less keyboard for this kind of case ! I hate this kind of keyboard for normal use, but for this use specifically it turns the keyboard into a remote control ! If you also install some dvr program which can run without any mouse, it can become quite awesome !

I got curious and did some more inquiry about this : finally the draw color & blend mode don't seem to matter, because they are not directly used. These functions are queued and executed directly by the video driver, so there is really some difference between what windows does and what linux does here, but not sure what. Linux also uses the opengl driver by default. So it's just a mystery, probably related to some low level driver stuff here. The good news though is that the behavior is correctly emulated by wine, I get the green screen when running the windows binary in linux through wine, it makes things easier to test at least ! So the only workaround which seems to work is the one which I used so far : finish the drawing with a white line so that the color is reseted and does not affect opengl blit operations. This was a really crazy bug for something which shouldn't have created any problem (it's just a basic drawing primitive, nothing should go wrong with that !). Anyway I stop here.

Maybe you have set the option in sound options "always stop neocd music while loading" to No ? Actually I should have removed this option long ago, I added it out of curiosity to see if it could be useful sometimes, but for the original hardware it's totally impossible not to stop the music while loading because both require reading from the cd. This option is always to "yes" by default, just make sure yours is. After checking this option is from before 2009, which means before the start of the git log, I expected to get some feedback from it but since the feedback never came, I just forgot it. You are the 1st one who might have used it by mistake !

You'll notice a problem only if your soundcard doesn't use 44.1 KHz by default, if it does then there is no problem. The crash happens very fast in the intro sequence, as soon as the 1st leave appears. (errr, it's actually a petal !) Released a new binary for that, 0.96.4, just 1 line added but it fixes this crash : http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html It's related to the changes done for sdl2, previously the soundcard was just opened in 44.1 KHz for neocd, no matter the configuration.

Thanks for posting, at least it proves that romhacking still accepts new entries, and this one is massive indeed. I'll take a look later, but it requires to find the same version he mentions with the given sha32, so it might take some time. Thanks for the info anyway ! Yeah found the original bin without too much trouble, some sites have the patched bin already. The xdelta patch applies without any trouble and is very fast, the surprise is that the resulting bin file is actually smaller ! But yeah it's still a 2352 bin file. I found a crash in raine if using all bin files for audio like here and the audio requires some conversion because the soundcard is configured for something like 48000 Hz, and these files are for 44100 Hz, it's a stupid bug, just 1 forgotten line, but it's still a crash, it's fixed in git, if somebody else has the problem I'll make another binary. Except that yeah, high quality patch, it took forever to make, and the guy had to be incredibly motivated to spend so much time on it, respect for the work done. Like most people I had played enough with the version released 10 years ago (already !) to understand that the game was very basic and a disappointment, which was probably the reason why there was never any official translation... But still, it's an impressive work he has done here. I remembered I needed some cheats to disable the automatic fights just not to become crazy with ultra easy repetitive fights all the time, since he changed some things for the eu/us version, you might have more chance, I didn't try that. And indeed you have some soft dipswitches now, you can access them in "neocd options", there was nothing usable there before, I doubt the choice of ps1 / saturn elements was in the original japense iso. Great work for sure !

Issue 4 is now online available for free download Link: https://raine.1emulation.com/zzapraine/issues.html Issue 5 is almost ready and will be published before end of October 2023

Yeah they were lost in the long list of little changes, the cue index was quite specific, and the version on the title bar is very minor. Long time no see, good to see you around here again !

Yeh, it takes too much hassle to maintain the Facebook page in English - and particularly when the majority of visitors would be Italian regardless. Think about the positives: Raine as an emulator will have an little fan club in Italy for a change

There is no pc driver, the auto detection problem is in linux only since kernel 5.16 or so, so if you boot only windows it will always be recognized as an xbox controller. And even for me, if I want the xbox controller the only reliable method is to boot windows 1st, then reboot in linux, too bad they didn't include something to force this auto detection to something... ! It's annoying, but it's just that, annoying, you can work around it.

It's been a major rehaul actually. But it was well worth the effort! Now the website is much easier to browse and has new icons and pieces of information that make it clearer. Thanks for your help Tux! Link to Zzap!Raine: https://raine.1emulation.com/zzapraine/index.html And the magazines are at: https://raine.1emulation.com/zzapraine/issues.html L.

And...

HBMAME 0.245.12 has been released. https://hbmame.1emulation.com/ In HBMAMEUI, the History tab has been updated. The supported dat files are: - history.xml - mameinfo.dat - command.dat - gameinit.dat Support of the following has been dropped: - history.dat (no longer updated by the official site) - marp.dat (not updated for 7 years) - story.dat (not updated for 7 years) - sysinfo.dat (not updated for 7 years and not relevant) - messinfo.dat (not relevant)

For your 1 you could have guessed the reason : when you load a neocd game the emulator doesn't know which game it is before it loads at least the 1st part, and so it does not know which region to apply 1st, so you have the default region 1st, that's all. Then once the game is identified, it gets the last region used for that game or its default region. For your 2 I can't reproduce it for now, launched smasho3 with the us region in windowed mode (in linux), started the game, the picture is not cut on its right side, and displaying the gui doesn't change anything to it. If the bug is just because you are using a 640x480 window, just forget it ! I am not sure for now. edit : and after testing in wine, I still can't reproduce this. No idea how you did that. edit2 : and even in win10, and even with a 640x480 window, no cut on the right. Oh well... !

You can use MAMEUI Classic - it's pretty much the same thing, just with all of MAME's games included.

Actually this version number was displayed for neocd in the title bar until may 29th 2021, commit 90761c9f7afc679394d550c4eb4f5e6ef3b42358. The commit was not specifically about that but to fix an incompatibility between 2 games, I guess I probably took it off because I found it made too long titles which is probably true for a lot of games there. Oh well since you are the most efficient bug finder around here I can put it back... !

Well these are just qsound sound commands associated to samples of the guy speaking, I had to change to sound commands dialog to accept commands on more than 2 characters because his sounds seem to be from $100 to $13a. Filtering these out would silence him. But it would not be a cheat it needs to be included in the code, and I guess the option would go to sound options then, because I am not going to create a cps2 options just for that... It's committed, last option of the sound options dialog. After doing the sound associations for cps2 it was quite easy actually !

I didn't know there was a possible crash when loading different games using ips patches in the same session, if it's been reported it was lost, anyway I just fixed it. Yeah from what I remember only 1 collection was serious, it must be the fba pack. But emufrance allowed to fix this load_continue thing, so it's fine too. Found a few oddities in romhacking there : https://www.romhacking.net/?page=hacks&genre=&platform=26&game=&category=&perpage=20&order=&dir=&title=&author=&hacksearch=Go actually you have to rebuild the .dat files manually there, they didn't even include them, the majority is clearly for consoles but there are a few original arcade ips, including : - bublbobl ultra : more a proof of concept than a real bublbobl extension like buble bobble redux, but it's not worthless. - donkey kong : this is the one which made me bring bps patching to raine, although I knew I wouldn't like the graphics, nes graphics are horrible usually, but I was still curious to see it. - strider : some rom fixes from a real fan. he went as far as finding there was a music which should play when out of time in the rom and which never played, and managed to fix the rom to make it play, plus improved a few of the graphics. Maybe I should post at least some of the dat files I rebuilt by hand, but it's not very hard to do. I just enhanced the .dat parser to allow spaces or tabs as separators and any number of them. They have a few street fighter patches which are totally equivalent to some of the cheats here, so they don't seem interesting at all. These patches are clearly to burn some real eeprom and not to be used inside an emulator, but why not use them anyway ?

After thinking, we could add a shortcut for the joystick to switch to the top entries where the most recent commands are, with the keyboard it's the tab key. Any proposal for the default button to use on the joystick ? (probably select or start) edit : it's done, with the back button, which is select on a playstation controller.

And you got a 0.95.4b, a bug specific to windows and which doesn't happen all the time displayed very weird script error messages. And the lua label was missing for the lua console script for sf2, that's all so it's sill 0.95.4, just an update.

Update for X-men Children of Atom (Phoenix Edition, xmcotar1d.zip): - allows pressing start button to skip opening. - a new menu screen with sound effects which look like the ss/ps version. - option (test menu) is forced to show English regardless of region, and return to menu screen when leaving. - the auto-block selction is fixed (it was my fault when I change the way of chosing the background in the old version.) - add the ability to memorize previous fight characters in vs & training mode. If you play as boss, it will load the characters where you press down button to select the boss. This script already included in the new version of Raine (0.95.4). Thank you Tux for enhacing the script system, it uses much less cpu resource now (obvious in the new type of menu screen in my console mode scripts). And, I can make more complex script i the future.
