MSX emulator.

Changes from RuMSX V0.33 to V0.40

 

* Display driver (normal and hires) are completely rewritten. The new sprite-renderer includes also a completely changed coincidence detection. Games such as "Hydefos" or "Psycho World" are now running properly!

* Added "MSX2" configuration with 256KB RAM in Slot 3-3, which is required by many disk-images. This is compatible to the Sony (HB-F700D) layout, that supports POKE-1,255 for running many games.

* Code is now optimized for Pentium Pro and higher.

* Major enhancements of the RuMSX core do now require at least a processor with 1 GHz (1.5GHz recommended)

* Added support for ROM-database including the RUMSXROM.EXE command-line utility for database maintenance. The initial database contains more than 500 known ROMs.

* "Harry Fox with Snow Demonking" did not run on MSX 2+ and MSX Turbo-R machines. This is now fixed!

* Incorrectly selected 16KB ROM-types (e.g. ASCII/16K) sometimes caused RuMSX to crash!

* Support of OPLL audio (MSX-Music, FM-PAC) slightly improved (notes should no longer 'hang').

* Support of video capture hardware slightly improved (video display is now scaled).

* Switched I/O (ports &H40-&H4F) did not work fully correct, therefore Kanji-modes 1+3 displayed filled blocks instead of proper characters (this bug was new since RuMSX v0.32).

* SCC+ access is now recognized (played as SCC sound).

* Added previously removed Hangul ROMs again.

* Added '/NoSoundOut' command-line option to disable annoying MSX sounds.

* Added "International (DIN)" font to locale settings. (provides the DIN "0" character)

GnGeo is a NeoGeo emulator for Linux (and maybe some other UNIX).

The 0.6.10 version is online. This version save universal bios settings ans emulate memcard. I have also updated the romrc with some newer rom description. For GP2X users, gngeo can now dump automaticaly gfx. See README.GP2X for details.

* added: profiler option: 'parse merge tags' (default = off) Enabling this will add support for 'merge' in datfiles. This is generally some additional merging information, commonly used to ignore identical files within a parent/clone relationship with different names. When you enable this option and scan sets which were scanned without that option in the past, you run into some wrong name / unneeded file (move to parent) messages. That's normal (since that's exactly what the merge tags were made for) and if you enable the fix options, they get fixed.

* added: profiler option 'don't create dummy clones' (default = on) Enabling this option will allow clrmamepro to split-merge fake clones (100% identical sets within a parent/clone relationship). In other words they will be fully merged into the parent. Toggling these new options will clean the profiler cache, too.

* misc: little merger speed increase

* misc: using latest zipclass library

* If you keep the 'dont' create dummy clones' option enabled and have chds in subfolders, you might see some "wrong merged" entries for the former 'fake clones'. Move the chd to the parent folder and remove the empty subfolder then.
