GBA / DS emulator

23 January 2008 - version 2.6a

(faster 3d rendering, backup detect, rtc-irq, better texture interpolation,)

(perfectly accurate edge-marking, translucent-poly-id, shadow-poly support,)

(capture in vram display mode, debug gui/warnings, cpu/ipc/div/sqrt details)

- nds/a22i: auto generates chinese crc upon .fix directive (only if version=2)

- nds/help: added info on chinese title in icon/title region (addr/version/crc)

- cpu/internal: reduced 32bit test/and to 8bit (al/bl/cl/dl instead eax/ebx/etc)

- cpu/detail: emulates mis-aligned thumb bx/blx and arm bx/blx (with warning)

- cpu/detail: emulates mis-aligned rd=r15 in arm alu opcodes (thanks jonathan)

- nds/3d/help: added double-blended-edge-glitch (edge-marking plus anti-alias)

- nds/3d/help: added translucent-edge-glitch (edge-marking plus anti-aliasing)

- nds/backup: supports re-detection (games with faulty initial initialization)

- nds/backup: added bus-width auto detection (redirecting to new general types)

- nds/backup: added new types (3x general types) (and 1x sanyo, thanks flubba)

- nds/3d: soft-detail: edge-mark: handles edges at screen border (via clear_id)

- nds/3d: soft-detail: edge-mark: applies edges in respect to surrounding pixels

- nds/3d: soft-detail: edge-mark: internally stores edge_flag for possible edges

- nds/debug: allows some games to initialize not-existing port 4001004h to zero

- nds/debug: allows nintendo to use faulty ldmib with base-inclusion-writeback

- nds/debug: allows nintendo to use invalid stmib/ldmib user bank writeback

- nds/debug: allows nintendo to write more serious nonsense to ® baseband regs

- nds/timings: re-fixed arm7/arm9 sync (new arm9-66MHz timings vs arm7-33MHz)

- nds/video: supports capture from 2d/3d engine in vram display mode (nanostray)

- nds/help: added note on undoc nds7 port 4001080h (used by ds-lite firmware)

- nds/help: added optical mouse sensor (slider controller) (thanx daniel palmer)

- nds/help: added firmware wifi internet access point settings info (thanks cue)

- nds/help: added user settings 066h (year) and 075h (ext language) (thanks cue)

- screenshot: converts 32bpp images to 24bpp (smaller and more standard files)

- nds/3d: soft-detail: prevents rendering of translucent polys with same poly_id

- nds/3d: soft-detail: supports shadow polygons (mask/render, step 1 and step 2)

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: scaled perspective correct clp.x from 0..len to 0..7FFFh

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: mmx: faster texcoord_clipping (no_repeat,repeat,flipped)

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: pre-calc tex_clip proc, collapsed 32:32 tex_xy to 16:16

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: pre-explodes edge_color_table, optimized alpha blend

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: mmx: processes two rgba-pairs and tex_xy-pairs at once

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: mmx: nonlinear color_rgb and texcoord_xy interpolation

- nds/3d: soft-detail: stores fog bit in framebuffer (opaque/trans=replace/and)

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: mmx: linear color_rgb and texcoord_xy interpolation

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: merged texture addressing and blending into single proc

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: mmx: faster texture blending (modulate/toon/highlight)

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: pre-calculates soft3d_tex_blend_proc for blendtype/mmx

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: uses mmx (if present) (otherwise stays 80386 compatible)

- nds/3d: soft-speedup: collapsed scanline_rgba from 32:32:32:32 to 8:8:8:8 bits

- detect: added no$gmb-386/486/cpuid detection, internal: rdtsc (3d/re selftest)

Saturn emulator. As usual, the changes make little sense...

* Fixed drive state transition processing of CD block.

* Fixed timer processing of SCSP.

* Fixed resampling processing of SCSP.

* Fixed DMA end interruption processing of SCU.

* Fixed drawing processing of the surface of revolution of VDP2.

* Version of the state saving data changed.

* Main loop processing from the master SH2 center was modified on the system clock center.

* Attendant upon that, SH2 Instruction of option Numbers was modified in 1Block Clock.

* Perhaps somewhat it has become heavy.

* In addition, HSynch Real Clock option was abolished.

* Compiling option was modified from Ver0.09 alpha, but

* That it seems that trouble occurs with cause…

Because you reset on the basis of option, being repaired, perhaps the software where trouble comes out of alpha the [ru].
