Ok, nothing major this time, release mainly due because of an update for the appimage files for non arch linux distributions ! So here are the changes anyway (mostly in chronological order): - lots of script updates from ffman1985, including sf2 serie (sf2, sf2hf, sf2ce, ssf2 and ssf2t, hsf2), the sfa serie (sfa, sfa3, sfz2a1, sfz3jr2, sfz2alj), and the marvel serie (mvsc, mshvsf, xmvsf) ! Impressive work... ! - Rom region selection in the gui for sf2hf, sf2, sf2ce, sfa, xmcota, mshvsf - some big fixes in the converter I used to convert the cheats from mame, which allowed to fix quite a lot of things, I didn't fix everything because there was no report at all about that, and it's a long process. I just fixed the biggest games. - Fixed black screen for shaders when using scanline-3x during game - mer-curious updated samurai shodown 2 perfect edition to the latest romset - added some cheats and hiscore saving for dkongex and dkongjp (all dkongex cheats are not tested). That's all, nothing major, but still quite a lot of changes... Oh yeah also the 2 appimage files are updated to be in sync with the latest windows builds, and I'll update the linux arch files now... ! http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

MAMEUI64 0.274.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com Changes: - Fixed minor issues with galaxian-based games such as 4in1, frogger, pacmanbl, mooncrst and jumpbug [MT 02074, 02077, 09084, 05208, 01598] - Centralised version control to the top of the makefile - Fixed crash sound in drivfrcg and clones [MT 01595] - ELF2: fixed numerous bugs to get this system working [MT 09076] Please note that gameinit.dat which previously only contained arcade-related info now additionally has console, computer, and pinball information. You can grab a copy at https://github.com/Robbbert/Startup/blob/main/gameinit.dat . This information will show at the top of the history tab.

For the 3-4 people that still happen to visit the Zzap!Raine site, I have some news. I always thought that the website "didn't really age very well" and the menu icons in particular were very old and quite ugly. So I redesigned all icons with a Bubble Bobble style, and also fixed the general site layout to make it look better on modern web browsers. However the site counts about 120 independent HTML pages and I do not have the time to fix all of them at once, so the main pages were fixed and the rest will be done at a later stage. The site logo has also been redesigned, as well as other minor icons. I hope you like it. Link to site: https://raine.1emulation.com/zzapraine/index.html Link to image:

NestopiaX v2.5 Preview Build by Xtecuterx73 [quote]Hi all, I'm still working on finishing up the full update for NestopiaX and i mentioned it would be out this weekend but i got caught up in some real life getting in the way on Saturday and wasn't able to get it finished completely where i want it. BUT In the meantime i AM releasing a special preview build here with some goodies and fixes thrown in: *The naming of the XBE has changed to 2.5 instead of '21. This will fix any issues with the "'21" naming convention. *I reverted a change way back in NestopiaX 1.2 where FDS games would autoload. FDS games not autoload when selecting so no more having to manually insert the disk *Fixed a bug where the lightgun cursor was garbled and unresponsive when playing lightgun games. Not sure how no one caught this one! *Fixed *Backport of Full Mapper 555 support - Nintendo Campus Challenge '91 now plays. You HAVE to have the second controller set to lightgun just like Nintendo World Championships to get this game to load in NestopiaX. *Backport of Handling of special battery flag cases with NES 2.0 Mapper 30 ROMS - This fixes Adventure of Panzer 3 and possibly other games on this mapper to now be fixed and fully playable. *Backport of Full Mapper 354. Powerful 250-in-1, 400-in-1, and 1050-in-1 are now playable. *Backport of Allowing 32K CHR RAM on MMC3 boards with extended PRG ROM size - This fixes and allows full quiet and garbage pail kids to now run correctly. There are more code changes and cleanup in this preview but these are the ones people will mostly notice. Until the full release is made enjoy this preview build with NestopiaX[/quote] link [code]https://gofile.io/d/BduTre[/code] mirror [code]https://www.mediafire.com/file/xnqedua5is57dku/NestopiaX_2.5_Preview_Build.rar/file[/code]

After fixing the windows compilation problem in arch (!), here it is. So the main thing is the new shinobi neogeo driver, see there : Otherwise, fixes/improvements included : - the changes for mer-curious changing his physical display and/or soundcard on his laptop are inside, there is a thread about all this somewhere. - fixed a crash when opening the console after an error while loading a game - fixed a bug in the game options dialog, there is another post about this somewhere too, thanks to mer-curious... - fix the region selection which got broken while moving around entries from the main gui menu. - Restore mouse position when exiting the program, mainly useful for linux, for window managers which react to this - Now use SDL_OpenURL to open an url from the gui, it probably doesn't change anything for now, but it will be useful if raine is recompiled for something else than windows or linux. For once the linux binaries were ready a few hours before windows because of an update problem in my arch setup, nothing major finally, but very annoying ! http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

And what took me so long ? Finding something to use for the sh2 emulation in 64 bits, and it was not easy ! Finally I took the sh2 emulation from an old mame version (153), and modified it to be compatible with what gens did, so that it's compatible with the psikyosh driver. The result is slightly slower than the asm version, but not by a lot, so it will do for now. I lost a lot of time with yabause which I looked at before that. Except that the windows status bugs seem fixed for good for those who missed the latest update of this painful story in the forum, there was a binary specific for that. And you can update your dlls for 0.96 if you want a more recent sdl2 version, but it's not mandatory, it should work fine with the old dlls. Have fun : http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html Oh yeah, I also added some links to some strategy guides in the about dialog for galaxian, pacman & clones, and dodonpachi. It's nothing fancy, it will just open your current browser with the corresponding page in the web, some kind of integrated bookmarks to raine, but I thought these guides deserved some more visibility !

And the magazines have finally been delivered! Time for a few group photos!

It mainly fixes the untested games in 0.97.0, but I took the opportunity to totally overhaul the disassemblers in the console, they are not external anymore, they use the functions provided by mame to disassemble. With that you can disassemble z80 encrypted roms which is convenient, but I did it mainly because my offsets arrays was becoming way too big with the sh2 emulation, it had been done for the 68000 for 32k regions, here it was really far over the limit ! But those who don't use the console shouldn't notice anything. Except that added the "psikyo SH2" driver to the drivers list in the game selection dialog options to be able to select these games more easily. That's all, the overhaul of the disassemblers is a very big change in git, it gets rid of most of the directories settings too. http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html For the gory details : dz80 was one of the external disassemblers, the one used by the z80, it was with raine since the old allegro dos version actually ! Very good disassembler, but it can't cope with encrypted roms... ! Also there was no support for the 6502 disassembler in the console, although it supported an external disassembler ! The list command changes because of that although its functionality remains the same, now the pc line is not in the middle of the listing but at the top. That's all for now, it was a very furious coding session !

HBMAME 0.245.26 has been released. https://hbmame.1emulation.com/ What's new in HBMAME ==================== 2025-08-09 0.245.26 - HBMAMEUI: Changed reference of "Originals" to "Parents".

In the arcade side, MAME tries to make the latest version the parent, which is completely opposite to what it should be. Definitely not the original. So, this suggestion has been accepted and implemented. Also, in the treeview (thing on the left side) it already says Parent.

I can confirm that plugging some earphones with a built-in mic works. You might try plugging anything with a mic. The idea is to have an input device detected in Windows. I didn't have to change anything in MAME.

Hmm. Weird. Going with your 2nd suggestion didn't work for me. I get the error regardless of what I pick. Ah well. I'll just wait for the next release or might roll back to 277.

I've let him know about the PM. Now it's up to him.

this is the best that i can find when it comes to a complete package. [code]https://archive.org/download/mameoxtras_2020_complete_and_support_files[/code] but it is from 2021 and so it is using an older version of mame for xbox so some of the newer games added wont be in there.

Oh you could speak more clearly by saying they finally released sdl3 as I suspected would happen soon... Well I didn't know, but if the switch to sdl3 is as involved as the one from sdl to sdl2 then it won't happen now for raine... edit : and after a quick look : yes it's involved, and so it will take time, and well maybe the time is right to stop raine here, sdl2 will continue to be supported anyway.

Done ! I finally switched to linux mint, which is based on ubuntu but with some more usable interface (at least for me) and it gave me less problems too, except its very long installation time ! Anyway you get 2 appimage packages for 0.97.5, which means the current version in git, I didn't plan to release now, but why not ? I'll make the windows binaries tonight or tomorrow, got enough building and configuration for now, with a proper announcement, nothing major in it, mainly some scripts updates, but lots of them to fix some long standing problems which means that not enough people are using them otherwise they would have been reported by now. It's a shame, these scripts are not only about cheats, they sometimes allow to see things you wouldn't see without them in a game ! And ffman1985 added some too. And mer-curious updated some romset to its latest version. I guess you are using the 64 bits version ? Well the 32 bits version seems surprisingly easy to run, see the comments on the download page, just 2 basic packages to install 1st to get a good amount of base packages for i386, and everything should be fine ! There will be another update tomorrow because I forgot some debug code in the launcher for the i386 version and forgot to update hiscore.dat and history.dat inside... Also ffman1985 managed to contribute a few more scripts a few seconds after I posted this ! I never found why the vbox shared dirs didn't work in ubuntu or in mint this time, I did it with a nfs mount instead, I don't know what they messed, the problem is probably in ubuntu, and since mint is based on it... ! Anyway...

HBMAME 0.245.23 has been released. https://hbmame.1emulation.com/ What's new in HBMAME ==================== 2025-02-27 0.245.23 New Games --------------------------------- - [bpanicdx] Block Panic DX (2025-01-01) - [flapchck] Flappy Chicken (2023-04-30) - [goldaxen] Golden Axe (Neo-Geo port) - [jumpnrund] Jump n Run Tech Demo - [karnovn] Karnov (Neo-Geo port) - [mpatrolut] Moon Patrol (Unknown Territories) - [pown] P.O.W. (Neo-Geo port) - [samsho2pe1] Samurai Shodown II (Perfect v2.4, 2025-01-27)

It actually started in 0.97.3 because I played a little bit with the glsl stuff, I had tested and it didn't seem to break anything, but with this particular shader because it doesn't affect all shaders, there is indeed a problem. Anyway it's fixed.

Hello, Raine has fixed the sound association function for the CPS2 Games in 2023, I am so sorry that I didn't test it until now as I am the one who requested this. Now, I would like to share a sound association list for the CPS2 games. In fact, there are only Street Fighter games in the list, because they are the only CPS2 games with the official arranged soundtrack. Rom included: sfa, sfzalj, ssf2, ssf2t, hsf2 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z7qNv0aek7Cz77jvndAN0rtRgpIk22IK/view?usp=sharing Tutorial: Part 1: Downloading the music To apply my list easily, you are encourage to download your mp3 from khinsider (which is a famous site for game music), so that the file name will be the same as that of my list. Here is the albums to download: 1. Street Fighter Alpha (PS1 Gamerip)(ignore the tracks marked with original) 2. Street Fighter II Movie Original Soundtrack (Just download track 5, and name it to "Of the Beloved, Of Sadness, Of Responsibility.mp3" and put it in the folder of Street Fighter Alpha, this is a special track used in the Japanese arcade ver. in the Dramatic Battle, even PS/SS don't have this track) 3. Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold (PS1/SS Gamerip) (Track 48 should be renamed to "48. Ending ~M. Bison.mp3" because it is not shin akuma. And I renamed Track 2 to "02. Opening (edit).mp3" because the vocal in the last part of this track should be cut.) 4. Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition (Just download the tracks of CD3, all marked with arrange.) Part 2: Editing the list 1. In the first line of the sound list of each game, there is the rom name. You may need to change it, as you may not play the same ver. as me. For example, I play the japanese ver. of Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha (sfz2alj), so the first line of the line is [sfz2alz:assoc]. If you play the english ver., the rom is sfz2al, so you must change the rom name and become [sfz2al:assoc]. 2. Directory of the music files are different for all people. But, don't worry, you don't have to change it one by one. For example, my muisc of street fighter alpha is in "‪D:\Games\Capcom AST\Street Fighter Alpha", assume yours is "D:\Music\Capcom\Street Fighter Zero". In Notepad, open the "Replace " function (in the Edit tab, or by pressing CTRL+H). On the upper box paste "D:\Games\Capcom AST\Street Fighter Alpha" and on the lower box paste "D:\Music\Capcom\Street Fighter Zero" and finally press the Replace All button. Repeat the step for all other game, and save the file. Part 3. After editing the whole list, copy all the text to "game.cfg" under the "config" folder in Raine. "game.cfg" can be opened with the Notepad. Part 4. You may find the music are too loud as compared to other sound effect or character voice. So, go to the Raine menu, select Sound options and adjust the Music volume. I set it to 20 or 30 for the street figher music from khinsider. Alternatively, you may edit the volume of all mp3 file using software like Goldwave or Audacity. P.S. Although the list don't inlude the original street fighter alpha 2 (zero 2), I believe it shares the same music as its enahnced ver. If you have the game, copy the list for sfz2alz, and then change the rom name.

There's a golden axe conversion happening too.

Nope sorry, no change on this side, and the region is not even in this dialog, and I can't reproduce your problem so I'll need some more info, obviously something changed on your system which initialized the language, which is quite a feat because I just noticed that I had forgotten the windows language detection function and it doesn't even know about pt_BR... ! It knows only about english, french and spanish, that's all ! So I guess you must have something in your environment which does that, type win+R and type cmd in the dialog to run a terminal, then type set and return, it will display your environment variables sorted in alphabetical order, check if you have something for LANG or LANGUAGE and report here. (you can scroll the window).

They are just late as usual. If it was skipped they would make an entry at mamedev.org (like last year), and my version would have been (0.272.2). I did it early (well, on time), because of hot weather that started today which may go on for weeks, too hot for my poor little computer.

D : I remember now, it's just that the key sequence you type is the sequence which is searched, so if you type twice D, it means you are looking for DD, which can be dangerous in case you have a game whose label contains DD, like top hunter, the neogeo game... ! If you are not sure, it's better to enable the "return mandatory" option. I didn't do that to be standard, just to find a way to be as fast as possible with the keyboard, it works well. And for the mame update : it's a never ending headache, I stopped following their nonsense years ago, all this should have been done differently normally (preserving the old rom sets and just adding the new ones with an increasing number when they are found), it would preserve compatibility with all versions, and usually the most recent version hasn't got very important changes. So well I accept patches to update the romset if you feel like it, if not, you'll have to be patient because I really hate doing this stuff !

1 - I was tempted to say it's not really a bug, it's super minor and you are the only one using this at least from what's reported on the forum, but the fix is trivial, just reset exit_options when opening the game options, so I did it. 2 - gui options / return mandatory C - yeah if it can't find the key you just pressed in the following games in the list, then is starts to look for it anywhere in the game title, that's for when you don't remember the whole title ! This thing is made to be used very fast, and I can confirm it does its job well ! D - not sure, well just press return in this case, I won't bother to look why it didn't select it as it should have done in this particular case.

HBMAME 0.245.21 has been released. https://hbmame.1emulation.com/ What's new in HBMAME ==================== 2024-11-13 0.245.21 New Games --------------------------------- - [bubblem01] Bubble Memories: Black Edition (World) - [bubblemu01] Bubble Memories: Black Edition (USA) - [dilith] Dilithium Lift - [dkongjr01] Donkey Kong Junior (bugfixed) - [galaga03] Galaga Challenging Only (2024-03-26) - [knightsch] Knight's Chance - [kof94s40] Kof'94 (Team Edit Edition v1.4.2) - [quarth01] Quarth (Cooperative) - [redearthep] Red Earth (NO CD, Easy Password) - [sf2ce59] Street Fighter II' (Golden Magic) - [sf2ce60] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Aimed Barrels) - [sf2ce61] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Aimed Fires) - [sf2ce62] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Barrels of Fun) - [sf2ce63] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Bird in Hand) - [sf2ce64] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Burning Fires) - [sf2ce65] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Fire Serpent) - [sf2ce66] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Vampiric) - [sf2ce67] Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (L735 [CL1785]) - [sfz3mix] Street Fighter Zero 3 (Turbo Mix 0.31) [zero800] - [ssf2t10] Super Street Fighter II Turbo (940223U, difficulty fix)

Well you can always test the last sdl1 version to check, sdl2 started in 0.92, so the last sdl1 must be in 0.91.15. Also if you saw the post in the other thread, we became xp incompatible with 0.97.2, so it's probably because of the new function to detect the soundcard. It doesn't really matter anyway, xp is ancient now, and you are bound to hit an incompatibility like that if you keep adding new functions. Also something you probably didn't think about, but if you set Autodetect as default, then you will never see which card is selected, it probably doesn't matter much anyway as long as it can be heard, but if you want to have the detect and store result as before, the only way is not to have this autodetect as default. (or modify the interface to show which card was detected when Autodetect is selected, but I prefer to keep things as simple as possible). And for the unexpected return of the black border : I had actually tested this in windows, but apparently this function doesn't return the same thing when you call it in windowed mode and fullscreen ! So it got me, because I didn't think about saving the config and run again. And it doesn't make much sense, it's supposed to be state-less normally... ! Anyway !

1) autodetect as default : we used the other way for years and you are the 1st to have a problem with that, I think we can keep the old default for now, I prefer to see precisely my soundcard name when I go to options. 2) your haunting black border : well not for me in linux. Maybe it's windows only... I am terribly tempted to simply stop to support windows, what a marvelous idea it would be ! I might try that in windows later, but for now in linux : 1) removed my config file, started raine, went to fullscreen loaded dino, took a screenshot of the title screen, then quit 2) run raine again in the same config, loaded dino, took the same screenshot, got exactly the same picture, end of the test for now. ... and same result in windows, same picture in both case (compared the files they are identical). got it, I hadn't the latest binary in windows, it's still the same old problem because I changed the way to get the screen coordinates, in windows we get the height of an invisible windows title bar added, not in linux. 1 line fix, a function name instead of another, but it's really annoying. At least the site is fixed, back with some disk space, you can get the ultimate test binary there : https://raine.1emulation.com/archive/tux/raine.7z

It's a miracle we can still post to the forum with a full disk, maybe the database uses another disk ? Anyway here is a mega.nz link for now : https://mega.nz/file/OYVAXI4b#uMADM9P6tyzFjRN3kUj90s1spQKI-B188WSJmvIBYDE

Centering the window : of course raine keeps as many coordinates as it can, it's since we added all these windows statuses which created so many problems ! So it knows where to position precisely a window when exiting from fullscreen to return to its previous state, but if the physical screen changed and now the resolution is not the same anymore, then it will mess things up. There's not much which can be done about it, it's obliged to reduce the size to stay in the screen, but then should the position be changed too and how ? For now it isn't touched, it's the safest way, it would really become crazy to try to adjust position when the size has changed too. The black screen in windowed mode : yeah my fault, I didn't get the right values for the desktop resolution, now I ask the desktop resolution for display 0, hoping we will never handle more than 1 physical display because I don't plan to use more than 1 here. autodetect sound all the time : yeah but it would force to have a special value which says "detect the soundcard but don't store the result, just stay in autodetect", so it's a little tricky, and not necessary in most setups, your setup when plugging a new dispaly changes the soundcard priority is quite original. And always detecting the soundcard is not a good idea neither in the case where you run without a desktop, which I do on the mini computer, it has a bare environment, no desktop, and in this case it can get some rather crazy value for the detected soundcard. Now I admit that if I was to use regularly raine on that machine, I would put a window manager, at least for fullscreen, here it's bothersome... ! Anyway since it takes you only a few seconds to adjust manually, it's the easiest solution for now.

Oh well you can always test this binary, since normally it can now work around the issue of soundcard not present you shouldn't be able to reproduce this error with it. https://raine.1emulation.com/archive/tux/raine.7z

For the soundcard detection and handling when there is more than 1 soundcard on the system ! All this went haywire because sdl2 SDL_OpenAudioDevice never returns 1 for compatibility with sdl1... !!! And also the fact that I never had the opportunity to test on a proper system with 2 soundcards. So if you have only 1 soundcard and everything works fine, no need to update this time ! http://raine.1emulation.com/download/latest.html

After some thinking, it's not so hard to add a small test for the video info to keep the window within the screen boundaries in case the physical screen has changed since the config was recorded, so I did just that. And in case the recorded soundcard is not available to just force a re-detection of it. 2 small workarounds for people who change their config all the time on their laptops while still keeping things easy, it should work... But I won't track the z80 error, yeah it can report an error like that if sound config is messed up when booting the game, even if I can't seem able to reproduce it for now no matter what.

Not for me, and really I get more and more tired of this... !

This part alone almost made me crazy. There is a compatibility hack in sdl2 to stay compatible with sdl1 so that it never returns the device id 1 on success when opening an audio device ! So it means you must ignore the returned device id (if using something else than autodetect). Crazy stuff... I'll fix that ASAP... It's changed in sdl3, it correctly returns the logical device id which was opened, I guess sdl3 is soon now. I would have spotted this earlier if I hadn't changed my installation here, no 2nd audio card to test... oh well... !!! Ok, fixed. The autodetection is totally different now, it can't rely on opening the device as it did before, so it might work better for you now. Tested in many configurations, it should be ok everywhere. For the neocd bios, yes it looks for neocd.zip in the raine directory, it can't look anywhere else since there are no roms directory in neocd. It's always been like that.

Impressive !

If you want... You know normal people don't keep on deleting their config files all the time, usually sound setup is done in a few seconds only once and never after that, so it doesn't really matter which device is selected by default usually... But it's your day of luck, sdl2 thought about people like you and it knows about selecting a default device instead of just the 1st one, so that's what I'll do now. I can't test it now because I don't have any pc with 2 soundcards, maybe the mini but it has no raine for now because of a very small disk... I might test this later then. (but I don't guarantee sdl2 default will be the one in your desktop, but maybe !). edit after trying : no luck, the mini has only 1 soundcard detected, I got an old pc with 2 but this one hasn't been powered on for 3 years now and everything is too outdated on it to test something like that ! Oh well, you'll test that next time... ! Anyway I have no pc with 2 soundcards and windows installed on it !

Alright fixed normally, and finally it was not a dll problem, just the usual kind of bug you get when you mess too much with windows statuses, and it could happen in linux too (the small screen in fullscreen). Test when you can the good news is the new dll is not needed anymore, you can delete it if you still have it, it's a return to the normal build process from linux ! http://raine.1emulation.com/archive/tux/raine.7z

Yeah it's the quarter picture I got because of the dll problem, I guess I didn't get the right one then... I'll see that later. But all this mess is a windows non sense, I just loose time here, had to reboot an incredible number of times while testing things since I couldn't reproduce the bug in linux and windows didn't have any decent dev tools installation yet. What a waste... Did I mention I really hate windows now ? Anyway since I got this thing working here it's probably a detail to pinpoint so I'll finish this.

Ok, did a minimal fix, you can test it at the usual place : http://raine.1emulation.com/archive/tux/raine.7z This forced me to reinstall the dev tools in windows, which showed me that the compilation of the 32 bits version was broken in mingw32, so nobody did that clearly ! Actually I had never reinstalled these after upgrading my windows disk which is now a ssd about 1 year ago or so. Anyway the fix is at 2 levels, it forces the desktop size to the video mode size instead of looking at the usable area, but except that I got a stupid game screen in the lower left part of the screen when I was in fullscreen, only for the 64 bits version, so it forced me to make the binary in mingw32 and not in linux as usual, there is clearly some dll problem, probably specific to windows 10/11 somewhere. So this archive is bigger, it includes a new libcrypto-3.dll which was not required before. Also since the bug is saved in the config file, the fix can work only if raine is not started in fullscreen with a broken config file, if it's the case you need to return to some windowed mode and switch again to fullscreen, or delete your config file. It seems to work for me, I guess I'll have to make something more official after that mess... Problem is that it probably breaks compatibility with old windows version for good this time. It's not my fault, it's the way windows is made, they willingly make things harder and harder to stay compatible with old versions. edit : and uploaded a new dlls64-0.96.7z with an updated SDL2.dll, 0.28 was becoming quite old. This should still be compatible with all 0.96 versions, and the libcrypto-3.dll is only in this raine.7z package for now.

Ok, it happens, windows only of course I would have spotted this long ago in linux, it's not so old it started around 0.96.10, because of the windows tricks which was probably the worst idea I ever had ! It's even worst that what you say because once the video is broken this way, it's saved in your config file and you'll find the same broken video next time you launch raine. It's easy to fix manually though, it's just screen_y in the config file which gets a bad value, just put your real screen height here and it will work, at least until you return to the windowed mode before switching again to fullscreen this way. It's not easy to fix because this has become an intricate mix of craziness to work around the strange behavior of windows, my 1st attempt to fix it triggered an even worse bug. So for now either switch back to 0.96.9 or before, use the keyboard, or switch to linux ! For info the size of the black border on top is exactly the height of the title bar for a maximized window, it's a windows bug you see here, it doesn't happen when using the same binary in wine in linux. I am tempted to remove all this windows craziness, but even that has become complicated for now, so for now it will just remain as it is for now, I might return to it later, I already lost way too much time on that.

The forum seems mostly broken, I can edit the previous message but not post the changes ! so here is the last part : edit2 : for the 1 there is a quick fix indeed, just don't try to position or scale the window when exiting fullscreen in windows. Now I didn't test this thoroughly, it just works in the case no config file -> fullscreen -> windowed mode. For the 2nd case, I don't have it, don't know what you did with your parameters, and I don't really want to know neither. Here is a very last build just to close this for good, and no I didn't experiment with automatic builds because it would be messy to build the 32 bit version probably, might be possible for the 64 bits version only but it takes time to check this. http://raine.1emulation.com/archive/tux/raine.7z (it replaces a previous raine.7z from 2022).

Yeah all this because they forgot a credential in an open server and it stayed there for years until this stupid group decided to use it... Millions of credentials stolen after that, what a mess... ! Anyway, I guess it should be fixed soon now. For switch emulation those interested kept the binaries already, and suyu is still maintained. I might take a look at your window problem later at least to check if it's so easy to fix, but I doubt it. edit : of course it doesn't happen in linux, at least not in window maker which I use. Now seeing why this stupid windoze broke things again will take more time, so maybe later !
