• misc: added workaround for a possible MAME/MESS -listsoftware specific output error which leads to wrong rom sizes

[28 february 2012] DEmul 0.57 WIP

Release notes:

There is not so much visible changes for more than year of work, but much more internal changes, overall compatibility and graphics quality.

First of all, the new SH4 core now have full MMU support for interpreter/dynarec modes, which is slightly improved compatibility and allow to run most of the WinCE games fast enough to play.

Second significant change is that GPU subsystem now migrated to the DX11 interface (currently DX10-capable GPU is enough).

From this version old DX9 GPU plugins (DXv3 and DXLegacy) are obsolete, although they are still supported and included in current package. Further development of the DX9 plugins is stopped for now.

And finally overall interface and usability changes. Emulator is now support 7zip romsets for the bioses and arcade systems, most of the protection/encryption formats for the arcade systems, many many new romsets added during last year and many previously unsupported games or game controllers now are supported.

The rest is the sound subsystem have some bug fixes, improving known problems. And yes, totally forgot about... Now we have our proprietary netplay plugin, too new to work fine, and totally untested, so you are welcome to try.

No, model 3 emulation still in the same state (except some overall graphics and compatibility improvements, made previously) all work currently suspended in favor to much more active supermodel emulator. Keep up good work, Bart!

Not much work was done on the Naomi 2 subsystem too, there is no significant changes, just a little bit of fixes. DX11 support for Naomi 2 still imperfect and have some known issues, don't bother with that.

Changelist:

- AICA: fixed sound

- CORE: added 7zip support for roms

- CORE: added mmu support for dynarec

- CORE: fixed maple timers

- CORE: fixed memcards in WinCE

- CORE: fixed save states

- CORE: new sh4/ppc cores, improvements, bugfixes

- CORE: removed redundant gpu/spu multi threading

- GDR: added support for filenames with spaces to GDI

- GDR: fixed gdrImage plugin

- GDR: fixed thread mode

- GDR: removed redundant gdrDemul plugin

- GPU: fixed DX3 z-buffer bug

- GPU: new DX11 plugin featured order-independency transparency

- GPU: new DX11 object list multi-layered render simulation

- GPU: new DX11 translucent modifiers, aspect ratio support with hotkeys

- GPU: new DX11 two-pass postfilters, texture conversion on the GPU

- GUI: new VMS manager merged with maple devices, menu rearranging

- MODEL3: added little improvements, still no sound, not a priority since supermodel is here

- NAOMI: added M1/M2/M3/M4 decompression implementation, now all protections are emulated (thanks to Adnreas Naive, Deunan Knute, MAME and DU teams)

- NAOMI: added jvs standart touchscreen emulation (Touch De Uno! 2)

- NET: new proprietary network plugin added

- VMS: added default vms file to all ports

0.145u3 (u2 was not released)

System Driver Changes:

----------------------

-n64: Force mtc0 opcodes that initiate to-RSP DMAs to end recompile

sequences to force a code check. Fixes certain microcodes from executing

garbage code after DMA. [Ryan Holtz]

- Miscellaneous machine fixes, gets Conker's Bad Fur Day to boot through

its legal screens with interpreter MIPS.

- Increase the amount of time consumed by PI DMA, makes certain RSP

microcodes that test DMA speed land in the correct window.

- Force the main CPU to yield when the RSP reads its atomic semaphore.

- Force the RSP to yield when PI DMA completes.

- Flush the RSP DRC cache when touching IMEM with SP DMA.

- Increase CPU/RSP interleave from 600Hz to 1200Hz, seems to be just

enough for RSP-side PI DMA tests to land correctly.

- Don't flush the RSP DRC cache on DMA. Fixes Mario 64 and others.

- Fix audio sync issues in Super Mario 64 and probably others, and

also bring PI DMA speed into the realm of reality.

- Change PI DMA speed from 3 cycles/word to 5.08 cycles, as average

PI speed is between 2.53 and 2.55 cycles/byte.

-vic20: Added support for loading .crt files. Note: this will only

work if the first 2 bytes of the file contain the loading address,

and only for single part cartridges. Please use the MESS software

list instead of loose files. [Curt Coder]

-next: Timer free running mode [O. Galibert]

-c64: Added support for the Final Cartridge and Prophet-64 cartridges. [Curt Coder]

-ti99: Horizon Ramdisk expansion card added [Michael Zapf]

-z88: moved uPD65031 emulation into a device and fixed keyboard input. [sandro Ronco]

Software Lists:

----------------

-c64.xml/c128.xml Added Buddy System 64/128 v10 floppies. [Quantum Leaper]

-ti99.xml: Added softlist support to ti99. XML file is still preliminary,

must be filled with more entries. Only two cartridge PCB types

supported (standard/paged) at this time. RPK will continue to be

available. [Michael Zapf]

-apple1.xml: added a few more tapes [Anon01]

-pico.xml: 8 new Euro dumps! [Team Europe]

Source Changes:

----------------

- 680x0: Ensure fc/rw and fault address are consistant [O. Galibert]

- i386: Prevent page faults when returning to same privilege and unmapped

pages are above the stack. Windows 95 boots now. [Carl]

- Modernized terminal device and added possibility to change comm parameters [Carl]

- i386: LOCK prefix should depend on IOPL on 386. Windows NT beta boots. [Carl]

- info.c: several fixes and additions to listxml output [Fabio Priuli]

- appended to xml info about devices which can be optionally mounted to slots

- added a description attribute to slotoption to show which devices can be mounted

in each slot

- added to xml info of cpus/inputs/image/slots which are relative to devices (e.g. CPUs

or Dipswitches in the device itself)

- tags of elements directly attached to the root_device do not display anymore the

root colon (slot tags were already behaving in this way); elements attached to optional

devices use tags starting with colon (to be interpreted as a relative tags which gets

appended to the device tag, when such a device is selected in a slot)

- modified when necessary output routines to pass a root_device and a root_tag as

parameters, in order to simplify output of relative devices and avoid duplicated code

- updated DTD according to the new elements and attributes

These changes allow frontends to know in advance how drivers can be configured

through the various slot options (by matching option descriptions with device

descriptions), without the need to run -lx with the various slot combinations. This is

especially of use if a device adds e.g. dipswitches or image devices (like additional

floppy drives or additional slot expansions), but also if one wants to know e.g. how many

sound channels a soundcard would add to a pc driver, or which kind of screen parameters

would be added by a specific choice of video card.
