An updated beta for PCSX2 has been released. This one features a hefty chunk of updates and changes, among others a new look.
Bositman Wrote:After more than a year since the last stable 0.9.6 release and 8 months since the last beta release of PCSX2, the new beta version is finally ready!
The most notable change is the all new GUI powered by wxWidgets, but the amount of improvements in this release is really amazing Smile
This 0.9.7 release is marked as unstable/beta, meaning it still has some known bugs and unimplemented features but it is fully supported by the PCSX2 team. For more info, check the included readme file.
Without further delay, here's the extensive changelog:
* New GUI based on wxWidgets working on a separate thread
* microVU, an all new VU0/VU1/COP2 recompiler
* VIF rewritten and a new Vif Unpack recompiler
* IPU improvements, many more videos now play perfectly
* Stable full screen operation with GSdx
* Alt+Enter Hotkey for real-time fullscreen/window mode switching
* Many new emulation options, complete with tooltips
* New MTGS, much more efficient and compatible
* New BIOS skipping method, more compatible and correct
* New Host File System Support
* Turbo/Slow motion settings for the frame limiter
* On the fly changing of settings and plugins
* Threaded Saving/Loading states, so it does not pause gameplay
* Built in ISO reader with a recently used ISO list
* Suspend / Resume emulation safely and fast
* Simplified plugin configuration dialog, with more options
* Full DVD9 game support (for example God of War, Xenosaga, Gran Turismo 4 etc)
* First time configuration wizard
* Settings stored in your User documents folder by default to prevent Vista / Windows 7 permission issues
* New Game database detects the game you run, displays compatibility info, and auto applies special game fixes/patches if needed
* Cheats are now separate from patches, cheats can be placed in the "cheats" folder and enabled/disabled from pcsx2's file-menu
* Many important plugin updates, GSdx has many bugs and memory leaks fixed, SPU2-X makes dozens of games boot which never did before
* And a huge amount of improvements and bug fixes which we don't remember anymore

[Couriersud]
Reworked rendering in toaplan2 to render tilemaps / sprites in a
single pass, should be more accurate to hardware. Note, this further
breaks the mixing in Batsugun and Dogyuun because the previous hacks
can no longer work with the new rendering code. These games have been
demoted to NOT_WORKING status until a better solution is found; they
never worked properly anyway due to the extent of the video hacks
needed to support them [David Haywood]

Quote:2010/05/21 2.42 released
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In the ending demo of "Lodos Tou Senki", the problem that the surface of
the picture occasionally fell into disorder (generated by a recent
version) was solved. I think that the timing has approached a real
machine in even other games.
- When a "hes(sound)" file is started, it is started with a hardware state
of the CD-ROM2 specification. As a result, I think that a game using
ADPCM sound (drum etc.) became available. (However, the difficulty of the
ripping in ADPCM use might be high.) * In this change, the hes file of a
size that is larger than 4Mbits (512Kbyte. doesn't contain the header)
cannot be used. Perhaps, I do not think that there is a necessity, but if
you use hes file that is larger than 4Mbits, make the extension ".pce".
- It prepared for the case where the CD-ROM access error by hardware, OS and
driver's slumps. As a result, when the hardware error happens, Ootake will
be able to be closed safely.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.

Source Changes
--------------
New Lucky 8 Lines hardware: [Roberto Fresca]
* Added lamps support to lucky8, lucky8a, lucky8b, ns8liner, ns8linew
and kkojnoli.
* Created lamps layout for the above sets.
* New inputs for ns8linew. This set has a second set of inputs, and
can be switched between them. No lamps activity or Big/Small
buttons are present while this alternative controls are used.
Maybe is a leftover.
* Some DIP switches were figured out. Coinage and limits are still a
real mystery since all DIP switches are reflected in the test
mode.
* Remapped inputs to be straightforward with the control panel.
* Added the type (W-4/F-5) to the sets description.
* General inputs clean-up.
suna8.c: Updated documentation for Strike Fighter to include the game
number, PCB number and epoxy CPU [Fabrizio Vasile]
Jaguar: fixed RGB VARMOD mode [Angelo Salese]
namcops2: add DVD image for taiko10 [Guru]
Added DIP Locations for all games in the jack.c driver. Changed
copyright on joinem to match displayed year. [Tafoid]
More cleanup of the lpc tables; Replaced tms5220C pitch table with the
tms5220 one as that one is more likely to be correct. [Lord Nightmare]
Add 'Unrealistically Perfect Interpolation' debug mode; Fix a
potential issue with 16 bit overflow in the lattice filter; Made idle
state emulation more accurate to real chip; Clean out variables before
VSM speech starts; Mask out low 4 bits of 14 bit lattice result before
output. [Lord Nightmare]
Fix a mistake in the interpolation logic, it should now properly delay
interpolation until the final cycle of each frame when INHIBIT is set.
[Lord Nightmare]
tms5220: Remove unnecessary interpolation code; Add extra check to
make unvoiced mode trigger at the correct sample. [Lord Nightmare]
Fixed up tms52xx clip/wrap function arrangement to be much more sane,
and properly handled range extension. [Lord Nightmare]
Made tms5220 DEBUG_GENERATION more useful and simplified the code in
the process. [Lord Nightmare]

Ootake, a Turbo Grafx 16 emulator for Windows has been updated today.
Quote:2010/05/08 2.40 released
- The pronunciation balance of the wave memory sound source has been
deliberately adjusted. In the stage 2 of "Daimakaimura (Ghouls'n Ghosts)"
etc., the problem was solved that the sound had shut somewhat oneself up
compared with the version before (generated by v2.39). As a result, I
think that tone quality improved more.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In "Dynastic Hero", the problem that the screen has fallen into disorder (
generated from recent Ver.) was solved. In the opening demo of "Tengai
Makyou II", the problem that the lower side of the screen fell into
disorder momentarily was solved. In "F1 Circus '92", the problem that the
order display fell into disorder momentarily was solved.
- When "DE-JA" is started, a part of CD-ROM access processing becomes
slowness near a real machine. In the visual scene, the problem that the
screen shakes was solved. * Sometimes falling into disorder when the
screen is rewritten is similar to a real machine.
- When you start the file of the image of the system card directly by not
"CD-ROM" menu start but "Hu-Card" menu, operation changes into the CD-ROM
mode (CD-DA Play, Save-filename at each game).
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.

Source Changes
--------------
Replaced TMS5200 table with table extracted using PROMOUT from actual
chip. monymony sounds much better. [Lord Nightmare]
Improvements to Treasure Bonus (Subsino) [Roberto Fresca]
* Reworked and cleaned-up the inputs. Most buttons have more than one
single function.
* Added DIP locations.
* Figured out the following DIP Switches: Complete Coinage
(1/2/5/10/20/25/50/100). Remote Credits (1/2/5/10/20/25/50/100).
Minimum Bet (1/8/16/32). Max Bet (16/32/64/80). Demo Sounds
(Off/On). Game Limit (10000/20000/30000/60000). Double-Up
(No/Yes). Win Rate (84/86/88/90/92/94/96%). Double-Up Level
(0/1/2/3/4/5/6/7). Double-Up Game (Dancers / Panties Colors /
Cards / Seven-Bingo).
* Fixed inverted functions and buggy inputs.
* Added lamps support.
* Created button-lamps layout.
* Remapped inputs to reflect the controls layout. This way is more
user-friendly since controls are straight with button-lamps.
* Added coin/keyin/keyout/payout counters.
* Removed the pulse limitation in the BET input. This allow it to
work as BET and STOP2 properly.
* Added technical notes.
Status Fun Casino improvements: [Roberto Fresca]
* Reworked inputs to match the standard.
* Lowered the CPU clock to get it working properly.
* Added technical notes.
Output Cleanup/Hookup (Part 2) [Howard Casto]:
* segas32.c: Hooked up all digital outputs for all games (radm,
alien3, radr, f1en, arescue, f1lap, jpark, slipstrm, orunners,
harddunk, scross, titlef) Emulation needs to progress more on the
analog output data before those outputs can be hooked up.
* audio\mw8080bw.c: Changed output name for desertgn to something
more descriptive (Player1_Gun_Recoil)
* bbusters.c: Added new output handling functions and hooked up
outputs for bbusters and mechatt
* opwolf3.c: Added gun outputs for opwolf3 (man that game is
terrible)
* machine\williams.c: Fixed existing outputs in tshoot (they needed
inverted) and hooked up the rest, including the feather blower.
:-D
* gunbustr.c: Hooked up all outputs for gunbstr
* namcos12.c: Hooked up outputs for all system 11 gun games
(ptblank2, ghlpanic, tenkomor)
* segaybd.c: Hooked up all digital outputs (gloc, glocr360, gforce2,
pdrift, rchase, strkfghtr), also hooked up motor/analog outputs
for Power Drift and G-Loc/ Strike Fighter The remaining games with
motors could be hooked up as well assuming emulation can progress
enough to get past the error messages.
* namcos2.c: Hooked up gun recoils for golly ghost. Also noted that
the outputs for the remaining gun games are also in that area.
Someone who can find the offsets should be able to hook them up.
* segas18.c: Hooked up gun recoils for lghost.
* taito_z.c: Hooked up outputs for spacegun and made a few prototype
functions to help in hooking up the remaining games. Someone familiar
with the driver should take a look. I hooked up a few, but they don't
work like they should according to the comments.
toutrun.c: corrected dipswitches in the most recently added Turbo Out
Run set, and reorganized the sets so that the parent is the FD1094
317-0118 set, the "newest" set based on both EPROM and security chip
part numbers. [Andrew Jackson]
Fix two VS2008 warnings (namcos23.c and rdpfb.c) [Oliver Stoneberg]
Remove some stray invalid code in start_profiler() [Oliver Stoneberg]
Have srcclean add missing newlines to end of .c files [Atari Ace]
Fix the memory leaks with the strconv.c function by using osd_malloc()
instead. Fixed other memory leaks as well. [Oliver Stoneberg]
"Replaced" TMS5220 table with table extracted using PROMOUT from
actual chip. By 'Replaced', I mean documented, as the actual extracted
table exactly matched the table already in MAME. Changed TMS5220C to
use the same energy table as 5220 does, since my previous assumption
based on the Quadravox tables was probably wrong. Updated the ranout
condition code of tms5220.c to be slightly more accurate to the chip,
and added TODOs. Re-enabled the timers for deactivating the READY line
on /WS or /RS as this is probably slightly more accurate to hardware,
but the difference is 2 or 3 clock cycles max. [Lord Nightmare]
Fixed linking of chdman.exe and romcmp.exe with Visual Studio.
[Oliver Stoneberg]
Fixed incorrect DSK ROM size, shuffled around some ROM mapping, added
new ROMs that were incorrectly assumed to be identical to than
racedriv. The previously bad ROM checksums are now correct. Now the
watchdog resets it instead of getting an address error. [Luigi30]
Added a screen layout for Space Stranger based on photos [M.A.S.H]
Added redumped sound ROM to Vs. Net Soccer (vsnetscr) [Team Japump]
Disable many unused variables as identifed by cppcheck.
[Oliver Stoneberg]
Naomi: Added rounding to the GD-ROM DMA transfers, will be need for
Virtua Tennis to make it boot [Deunan Knute, Angelo Salese]
AICA updates: [PluginNinja]
* Implemented slot monitor
* Improved ADPCM looping
* General cleanup
SCSP updates [PluginNinja]
* Improved slot monitor function
* Various cleanups
namcos23: Varied stuff, isolate PIO, pcb test works on timecrs2c
[O. Galibert]
namcos23: Quick hack to make 500gp boot [O. Galibert]
namcos23: Increase the main ram size so that crszone goes into POST
[O. Galibert]
Implemented Sort-DMA irq firing [Angelo Salese]

[Angelo Salese]
Naomi: implemented PVR-DMA HW trigger [Angelo Salese]
Fix compile error when DEBUG_GENERATION is defined [Oliver Stoneberg]
cdrom: correct header length for form 2 raw sectors [R. Belmont]
namcos23: Mirror, mirror v2 [A. Giles, O. Galibert]
Naomi: implemented mahjong panel support [Angelo Salese]
TMS5220: Made /READY timing accurate to the real chip as best as
possible. Note that on the zaccaria games, possibly due to a bug in
the CA2 line handler of the PIA which reads the /READY state, speech
usually won't work until midway through the first game played, but
works fine afterward. Not sure if that's a MAME bug or an original
game bug. [Lord Nightmare]
Replaced the DEBUG_FRAME_DUMP define with a new DEBUG_PARSE_FRAME_DUMP
which produces binary listings of each frame parsed. [Lord Nightmare]
Added newer Area51: Site 4 BIOS. [Guru]
sega system16 and later: first pass in the conversion of video ICs to
be devices [David Haywood]
Fix swapped stereo in gauntlet and gauntlet 2. Thor (warrior)'s/red
player's coin slot is toward the left, and specific sounds for that
player (coin insert gong, death ditty, etc) should come from the left
speaker, not the right. Verified with schematics. TODO: merge gauntlet
audio into atarijsa.c since the gauntlet audio hardware is clearly the
direct ancestor of the Atari JSA-i audio board, and currently is
missing most of the chip specific volume controls, etc which are
already implemented in atarijsa.c. [Lord Nightmare]
Improved Killing Blade encrypted DMA mode 3 [XingXing, David Haywood]
vrender0.c: converted to be a device [Fabio Priuli]
crystal.c: added driver data class [Fabio Priuli]
Improved DMA modes 1+2 in killbld, allowing all DMA operations used by

Redumped one program rom in Killing Blade [XingXing, David Haywood]
Hook up the ym2151 reset bit to the sound cpu in gauntlet, and fixed
sound reset to properly reset all the sound chips and volume latches.
[Lord Nightmare]
Fix race condition involving tms52xx status register which broke
victory/victorba self test. Updated debug routines a bit, and improved
the non-NORMALMODE a bit. [Lord Nightmare]
Improvements to Pachifever driver [Tomasz Slanina, maruwa]
* replaced ic48.50 ROM with correct dump
* added correct MSM clock value
* added second SN76489A chip (used for sfx)
* updated hw notes
Cleaned up ranout (FIFO running out mid-frame) to be accurate to
hardware; Cleaned up talk status clearing to be more accurate to
hardware; Cleaned up parse_frame function significantly. Added some
more comments. [Lord Nightmare]
aristmk4: Hooked up the two AY8910s [Fr45h3r]
snes_snd: fix Linux 64-bit compile issues [R. Belmont]
Naomi: Improved the YUV FIFO IRQ firing, now it should be possible to
emulate the YUV decoding properly [Angelo Salese]
PGM: added support for newer bios ROM [XingXing]
Corrected mask ROM numbers for HOTD2 [f205v]
Fix ZPAR (zeroed k parameters 5-10) behavior for unvoiced frames.
Updated comments and debug functions. [Lord Nightmare]
Naomi: work-around for an int32 overflow bug in the renderer, makes
The House of the Dead 2 / The Typing of the Dead to not crash during
attract mode [Angelo Salese]
Naomi: improved Vblank-In irq timings [Angelo Salese]
Redid parameter interpolation and frame load logic so new frames don't
immediately force all the Energy/Pitch/K values to the values of the
old frame, but wait until their first interpolation to do so. This fix
improves speech quality considerably. [Lord Nightmare]
Naomi: implemented RTC start-up values [Angelo Salese]

Quote:2010/05/01 2.39 released
- "Write Memory" was added to "CPU" menu. While executing PCE(TG16)
software, the operation test can be done by rewriting the content of
memory(RAM,ROM) of PCE(TG16).
+ This "Write Memory" menu can be used to execute a so-called cheat
command. For instance, BGM can be appreciated without being obstructed
to the sound effect (attack sound and jump sound, etc.) by using the
time limitation release and the invincibility command etc. (Within the
range of the personal hobby)
+ On the other hand, a cheat command when using it by "Purpose to clear
the game easy" is not recommended. Because, it becomes a game balance
that the game production person doesn't intend, and the interest of the
game is surely lost. Moreover, it becomes impossible to talk about the
work with "person who enjoyed it by normal play". Therefore, I think
that playing only by normal-play(non-cheat-play) will be consequentially
happy (It can deeply enjoy playing the game).
+ "GAME OVER" should be welcome. Even if it cannot be cleared, the game is
happy. I think that it is a most wonderful point of games (especially,
in the retro games). Personally, if you can use this menu in the purpose
of the research and development, I am glad.
+ The input method of command is
"<address 6 digits[Hex]>:<value1-255[Dec]>".
Add "+"(positive sign) at the end of the command if you want to keep
writing the value (Invincibility command etc.).
Add "0x" before the value if you want to input the value by the
hexadecimal number.
- The tone quality of the sampling sound (ADPCM and Wave Memory Sound) has
been improved. Moreover, the entire volume balance has been readjusted. I
think that the entire tone quality improved considerably, too.
- The distance detection processing of the "PC Engine Mouse" has been
improved. In "Hatsukoi Monogatari", the movement of the mouse cursor
became smooth.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In the start demo of "Metal Angel", the blinking problem of the screen was
solved. In "Toilet Kids", the problem that the borderline of the status
display has fallen into disorder was solved.
- In "Splatter House" and "Shubibinman 2 (Shock Man)", when the TurboButton(
AutoFire) speed setting is High, the problem that the AutoFire doesn't
function was solved.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.

Quote:2010/04/22 2.38 released
- "Configure Function Button" was added to "Input" menu. "Function Button"
is a button to use a lot of functions with a Joypad. The following
function can be used.
+ When [UP] or [DOWN] of a Joypad cursor key is pushed while pressing the
Function Button, the volume can be adjusted. Moreover, when [RIGHT] or
[LEFT] of a Joypad cursor is pushed, the volume can be fine-tuned. (This
is the same function as time when [PageUp] or [PageDown] of a keyboard
is pushed.)
+ When [I] or [II] button of a Joypad setting is pushed while pressing the
Function Button, "On-off of the TurboButton(AutoFire)" can be switched.
(This is the same function as time when [1] or [2] of a keyboard(
full-keyborad) is pushed.)
+ When [SELECT] button of a Joypad setting is pushed while pressing the
Function Button, "Screenshot" can be taken. (This is the same function
as time when [PrintScreen] of a keyboard is pushed.)
+ When "VSpeedUp Button"(set at "Speed->Set VSpeedUp Button" menu) is
pushed while pressing the function button, the mode of VSpeedUp(video
speed up) can be switched. It is possible to use it also for
"Confirmation of the speed magnification" by pushing twice. (This is the
same function as time when [Insert] of a keyboard is pushed.)
+ When "Save&LoadState button for Function Button"(set at "Input->
Configure Function Button->Configure Function Save&Load Buttons") is
pushed while pressing the Function Button, SaveState or LoadState can be
done. (This is the same function as time when [S][L] of a keyboard is
pushed.)
+ In the further version-up, when [RUN] button of a Joypad setting is
pushed while pressing the Function Button, the operation equal with
"Recent" menu (select play game) is scheduled to be able to be done on a
Joypad.
- A vocal balance of the sampling sound of the wave memory sound source has
been readjusted. I think that tone quality improved in the games using the
sampling sound.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In Arcade Mode of "Xevious", when starting (also restarting), the problem
that had occasionally stopped & that the right-bottom of the screen falls
into disorder was solved.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.

- 03813: [Graphics] shadoww, shadowwa, gaiden, ryukendn, ryukendna:
Lost blending effect (David Haywood)
- 00803: [Color/Palette] All vsnes.c games: Colors are wrong.
- 00270: [Graphics] cstlevna, vsgradus, suprmrio, goonies: Black
startup screens are now gray.

flower, etc. on the top screen are wrong.
- 01097: [Color/Palette] cstlevna: Colors of the first enemies you
encounter are wrong.
- 02457: [DIP/Input] tkoboxng: Unable to coin/start game properly.
Source Changes
--------------
Fixed a bug with un-inited DMA regs in the SNES driver, fixes at least
a long-standing bug with nss_ssoc dimmed team selection screen
[Angelo Salese]
Added the Airline Pilot (USA) Naomi BIOS rom [The Dumping Union]
sauro, trckydoc, trckydoca (sauro.c) [stephh] :
* Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs (after verification of the Z80 code)
ppu2c0x.c: Removed the bogus "color remap tables" in favor of external
palettes containing data reverse-engineered (several years ago) from
original hardware. Each vsnes set, as well as the playch10 bios, now
requires one of these palettes. [Alex Jackson]
vsnes.c improvements: [Alex Jackson]
* Moved RC2C05 PPU-based protection into the PPU itself, rather than
hacking it in at the driver level.
* After exhaustive testing, completely sorted out the "palette"
dipswitches (which are actually PPU type selection) on all games
that have them. Added notes about these games in the comments.
* Removed GAME_IMPERFECT_COLORS and GAME_WRONG_COLORS from all games,
as they should all be 100% correct now.
* Fixed coin inputs in tkoboxng. Removed IMPERFECT_GRAPHICS flag
since there's no legitimate reason I can see for it. Also, fixed
manufacturer and description to match the title screen.
* Added a bit more information about the missing sets in the
comments.
add partial 6840ptm readback support to exidy.c [Lord Nightmare]
Convert Atari System 1 to use the 'new' TMS5220 interface.
[Lord Nightmare]
Switch Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters to use the new
TMS5220 interface. [Lord Nightmare]
snes.c: Fixed clipmasks in hires modes [Fabio Priuli]
Fixed RTL opcode in-bank issue in the G65816 CPU core [Angelo Salese]
sm8500d.c: Fixed disassembly of extended instructions (1A, 1B, 4F).
[Oliver Stoeneberg]
lr35902.c: Fixed possible issue when checking for enabled irqs.
[Oliver Stoeneberg]
rf5c68.c: corrected the point at which the sample callbacks are
triggered, and what channel is returned. The interrupts are masked or
enabled based on what PCM memory bank is used, rather than the
physical channel that was used. [Barry Rodewald]
Converted Atari System 2 to use the 'new' TMS5220 interface. Switched
TMS5220 type to 5220C. [Lord Nightmare]
Further refining of the Atari JSA speech and audio modifications.
Hooked up the reset line for the ym2151. [Lord Nightmare]
inptport.c: fixed keyboard detection (mainly for MESS) [Fabio Priuli]
Hooked up correct proms, corrected gfx rom order and added bank select
/ enabled for the reels in Treasure Island (Subsino) [David Haywood]
updated Star Wars to use proper clocks for the tms5220 and the pokeys.
[Lord Nightmare]
MASSIVE merge of TMS5110 and TMS5220 cores, TMS5220 side only so far.
Much code by Jarek Burczynski merged. Lattice Filter, Multiplier, and
clipping redone. TMS5220C multi-rate feature added. Now using the same
LPC table file (and format, as created by couriersud) as the TMS51xx
is. Unvoiced-Voiced transitioning adjusted to match patent. Command
handling redone to better match patent. Reasonably significant speech
quality improvements: Separate tables for TMS5200, TMS5220 and
TMS5220C are implemented, though all still need to be verified from
hardware. Fixes: Garbled speech in Escape from the Planet of the Robot
Monster's Canal Mazes is fixed, as well as some other garbled speech
in game (when saying 'throwing switch' for instance). Known
Regressions (being worked on): Victory fails its startup self test
with an error 5, but speech works in-game. [Lord Nightmare]
Fixed victory self-test issue (FIFO must NOT be cleared on processing
of a STOP frame, only on a new speak external command. victory is
pedantic about this.), and in the process also fixed a bug regarding
reading /READY state when not in speak external mode (the FIFO being
full should NOT force /READY inactive in that case!) [Lord Nightmare]
Fixed various SNES SRAM issues [Fabio Priuli, Angelo Salese]
Fixed Wai Wai Jockey Gate-In title screen colors [Angelo Salese]
mk3ghw (aladbl.c driver + megadriv.c) [stephh] :
* Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs (after verification of the M68000
code) ssgbl (ssgbl.c driver + megadriv.c) [stephh] :
* Fixed stack vector so coins are now correctly handled (the game
shall be fully playable now)
* Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs (after verification of the M68000
code)
Added makefile PPC64 autodetection [Julian Sikorski]
6840PTM: Fixed interrupt flag behaviour and now allow fractional input
clocks. [Phil Bennett]
6850ACIA: Improved handling of /CTS signal and fixed issue with
transmission parity generation. [Phil Bennett]
MPU4+Video updates: [Phil Bennett, David Haywood]
* Fixed serial comms. As a result, most games actually boot now.
* Fixed colours.
* Fixed SAA1099 sound.
* Added Characteriser tables for all games (a complete implementation
is still needed for most games).
Supported the 1555 fb format in the Naomi driver, needed by Cleopatra
Fortune Plus [David Haywood]
Fixed ext latch behaviour in the SNES driver [Angelo Salese]
vmetal, vmetaln (vmetal.c driver) [stephh] :
* Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs (after verification of the M68000
code)
Fix 5220C pitch table so unvoiced speech actually works. Oops. Should
be a further quality improvement. [Lord Nightmare]
Tentative fix for tms5220 VSM support. [Lord Nightmsre]
F8 cpu disassembler improvements [Curt Coder]:
* fixed branch target PC
* added BP,BC,BZ,BR,BM,BNC,BNZ,BNO mnemonics
- removed extraneous $ from 2 byte hex values
Implemented various PVR TA registers hook-ups in the Naomi driver
[Angelo Salese]
mpu4drvr.c: Fixed 68000 device resets [Phil Bennett]
Naomi: Implemented more regs, test mode now properly sets 640x240
resolution. Implemented fb pixel double, Naomi test mode looks now
correct. [Angelo Salese]
i386dasm.c: Corrected display of debug registers (D0-D7) in
disassembly listings [Barry Rodewald]
video/nemesis.c: Removed palette gamma hack [Alex Jackson]
Subsino driver improvements: [Roberto Fresca]

full schematics made from the real PCB connections. They include Hex
D-type flip-flops, Bipolar PROM, 3-STATE Octal D-Type latches and
resnet connections. [Roberto Fresca, Aleksandar Spasojevic]
Partly implemented 'stereo' gating (using ym2151 ctX lines) to POKEY
and TMS5220 on Atari JSA-i sound board. (currently it is just 'mono'
gating). Add TODOs for complete stereo gating and for the low-pass
filter. [Lord Nightmare]
Improvements to Funworld driver: [Roberto Fresca]
* Replaced the Fun World Quiz bad ROMs with good ones.
* Fixed the Fun World Quiz graphics and colors.
* Cleaned-up the flags for non working games.
* Modified the default lamps layout to include the bet lamp.
* Cleaned-up the Fun World Quiz inputs.
* Added 4 new Royal Card sets. Reworked parent/clone relationship.
(delete the old .cfg and .nv files to have them working properly).
* Splitted the Royal Card machine driver. This is needed to access
different halves of the bipolar PROM.
* Now principal Royal Card sets have a working bet button.
* Added default NVRAM to the new sets.
Improved video rendering in MPU4 [David Haywood]
Implemented 15/31 kHz selector in the Naomi driver, makes Strike
Fighter and Shootout Pool Prize to be bootable by the common user
[Angelo Salese]
Clean up interpolation inhibit logic, may sound slightly better now.
Minor fix to TMS5220C table so zero-energy frames are correctly
detected. [Lord Nightmare]
Added driver data class and save states to playmark.c, powerbal.c,
pushman.c and pzletime.c [Fabio Priuli]

Quote:2010/04/10 2.36 released
- Processing that took the timing of the sound playing has been improved (
Optimized it to Win7 and Vista also) and sped up (Especially, at the
Hu-Card games). I think that it became difficult to record the noise with
a little buffer setting ("Setting->Audio->Buffer" menu), too. Therefore,
when using it with Win7 and Vista, the size of the audio buffer of default
was reduced.
- The setting of VideoSpeedUp and CpuSpeedUp ("Speed" menu) is not loaded by
default at the time of the LoadState(or Resume). (This prepared for the
case to mistake-push the speed change shortcut key([Home][End][Delete])).
* When "Load Speed at LoadState"("Speed" menu) is selected, the speed
setting can be loaded(reflected) as much before v2.35.
- The stop timing of ADPCM sound source was brought close to the movement of
a real machine.
In "Dragon Slayer Eiyuu Densetsu", I think that the tone quality of the
drum sound improved.
In "Side Arms Special(CD)", the problem that the sound effect occasionally
fell into disorder (generated from v2.29) was solved.
In "Ramma 1/2", The problem that the noise occasionally mixed with BGM (
generated from v2.29) was solved.
- The waiting time when the music track is played has been readjusted. With
a high-speed personal computer environment, In "Snatcher" and "Kaze no
Densetsu Xanadu 2", etc., the problem that had occasionally stopped was
solved.
- The play processing of ADPCM sound source has been improved. In "Jantei
Monogatari 3" and "Ys 3", the problem that the voice becomes interrupted(
generated from v2.15) was solved.
- When "Jantei Monogatari 3" is started, a part of CD-ROM access processing
becomes slowness near a real machine. The problem that the screen advanced
early at the visual scene was solved.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In the visual scene of "Jantei Monogatari 3", the problem that the screen
fell into disorder momentarily was solved.
- When the Screenshot function is used at FullScreen, the bug that had not
occasionally operated correctly was corrected.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.

video/snes.c [Fabio Priuli]
ppu2c0x.c: added save states to NES PPU and performed some minor
cleanups [Fabio Priuli]

and corrected the rom names for Rail Chase [ANY]
Added gprof support to the makefile. [Bryan Ischo]
Added a check for the OPTION_READCONFIG option before executing
the code which would attempt to incorporate configuration file
settings into the current configuration, because if OPTION_READCONFIG
is set to false, then there is no reason to even try to do this as
every single configuration file will be ignored (because config files
have been turned off by OPTION_READCONFIG). [Bryan Ischo]
Fixed small memory leak in mame.c. [Bryan Ischo]
Fixed double-free error in render.c. [Bryan Ischo]

- Processing that adjusts the balance of brightness and the gradation of the
screen is improved, and the image quality of default has been readjusted.
- "Setting->Screen->Scanline Density"(density of the horizontal scanning
line) menu was moved to "Screen->Scanline Density", and the setting of
"10%, 30%, 50%, 60%, and 70%" was added.
* When the value of this "Scanline Density" is set small, the gamma value
is optimized (bright). This can be set at "TV Mode" or "Horizontal
Scanlined".
- "Optimize Gamma" was added to "Screen->Scanline Density" menu. Remove the
check if you do not want to optimize the entire brightness(gamma value)
when the scanning line is displayed. Use by having put the check is
recommended usually. Because it must not become difficult to see the
character of the shade part.
- The setting of "0.94" and "1.04" was added to "Screen->Gamma" menu.
* Set "Brightness" greatly when you set Gamma small. Because it must not
become difficult to see the character of the shade part.
- The image quality of the "TV Mode" and "Horizontal Scanlined" at "x4" has
been improved.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In "CITY HUNTER", the problem that the lower hem of the start demo
occasionally fell into disorder (generated from a recent version) was
solved.
- When "Metal Angel 2" is started, a part of CD-ROM access processing
becomes slowness near a real machine. The problem that the voice of the
visual scene becomes interrupted was solved.
- When "Metal Angel 2" or "Travelers!" is started, the message of CD
installation("CD-ROM->CD FullInstall" menu) recommendation is displayed.
(For the voice problem solving. However, a little gap of voice happens at
a real machine, too.)
- In "Xak III", the problem that an uppermost line of the screen had
flickered was solved.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.

- The setting of "+5,+10,+20 and +30" was added to "Screen->Brightness"
menu. It is possible to adjust it according to the favor and the display
environment. * The melody falls in some environments when lightening it
too much. And it becomes easy to become tired when the game is played.
- The image quality of the screen size "Special Scanlined" at "X4" has been
improved.
- When "Gradius II" is started, the stereo setting start is done by the
automatic operation. If the check on "Setting->CPU->Auto Improve Grapics &
Sound (Gradius II)" menu is removed, or if soft reset (SELECT+RUN button)
is done after it starts, it becomes a normal start (flicker mode &
monaural setting).
- In "Bonanza Bros." and the visual scene of "Black Hole Assault", the
overlapping processing of the character was done as well as a real
machine.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In "IQ PANIC", the problem that fell into disorder the screen and had been
freezed when having entered the hut was solved. In the opening demo of
"Farjius no Jakoutei", the problem that the screen occasionally fell into
disorder was solved.
- When "Jantei Monogatari" is started, a part of CD-ROM access processing
becomes slowness near a real machine. The problem that the display
occasionally fell into disorder at the technique selection screen was
solved.
- When "Vasteel" is started, a part of CD-ROM access processing becomes
slowness near a real machine. The voice problem of the visual scene was
solved.
- In "Yami no Ketsuzoku Harukanaru Kioku", if non-stretched screen mode
setting is used, the switch is temporarily divided into the real stretched
screen mode.
- "Invalidate CD Install" was added to "CPU" menu. This is compulsorily
operated with "Real CD-ROM". "CD Installed" file (
"CD-ROM->CD (Full)Install" menu) is not used. (for operation test)
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
+ The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The
operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file
about details and notes, etc.
