By Reuters | Published Wednesday, September 01, 2010

Cambodia is aiming for the record books with an ambitious plan to construct Asia's tallest building, a 555-metre skyscraper worth $200 million, Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Wednesday.

The building would be five times taller than the country's present highest structure, the new, 32-storey Canadia Bank Tower, which dominates the Phnom Penh skyline, where buildings of more than five floors stand out.

If the project goes ahead, it would top the Taipei 101 Tower, the Shanghai World Financial Center and Kuala Lumpur's Petronas Towers -- the world's three tallest buildings after the 828-metre Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

"It will be shorter than the one in Dubai and taller than any buildings in Asia, and I think we can do it," Hun Sen announced during a university graduation ceremony on Wednesday.

"We don't have to be too conservative and we also don't need to be too outdated," Hun Sen added, brushing off criticism from cultural groups concerned that a construction boom was threatening the city's French colonial architecture.

Hun Sen said the proposal had been made to the country's Land Management Ministry and local lender Canadia Bank would be involved in the project.

However, real estate companies questioned whether there was much demand for a building half a kilometre high in the capital of one of Asia's poorest countries.

"Where would the investors come from?" said Sung Bonna, CEO of Bonna Real Estate Group in Phnom Penh.

"We are concerned about the shortage of demand and occupancy rates so we need time, but we hope this dream comes true." Combodia to build Asia’s tallest tower - Emirates24|7

I dont know how the hell they gonna build 555 stories skyscraper with just 200 million dollar I hope it is 2 billion. but maybe after the newly found of million tons of gold and billion barrel of oil and especially the new law that allow foreigner to own real estate in Cambodia makes this possible? O_O
I will keep my eyes wide open on this. :dead::dead::dead:]]> Quote:It would top the Taipei 101 Tower, the Shanghai World Financial Center and Petronas Towers

Super Botouten 2

Super Butouden 2 is the second best Dragon Ball Z fighting game I've played on the Super Famicon. It, of course, has a few flaws, but what game doesn't?

Graphics: 8/10
The graphics weren't the best I’ve ever seen, but still great nonetheless. The ki attacks all looked great, and all of the characters looked pretty cool. Goku looks kind of drunk, but again, they look just fine.

Gameplay & Control: 9/10
The game has 3 main parts: a story mode, one-on-one, and the Tenkaichi Budoukai, which is a tournament. The story mode is very well done, with different characters, leading out to different paths. The 1 on 1 is pretty self-explanatory, as is the tournament. The controls in a fighting game are important, and SB2 has solid control with nice fast response.

Music & Sound Effects: 9/10
The music is this game was great! Every character had their very own theme, as well as plenty of others, all of which were very well done. I especially enjoyed Piccolo's and Trunk's themes. The sound effects weren't stunning, but still good. My biggest complaint was those little screams when someone loses. ITS SO ANNOYING!!!

Story: 8/10
The story, obviously, is based on the story of Dragon Ball Z, and covers some important events. Not really much to say, since you would have to know DBZ. It could have covered a little bit more, though.

Fun Factor: 8/10
This game is pretty fun, considering that lots of fighting games get pretty boring. Some

The legend of super sayian:

DBZ: Legend of the Super Saiyan is a old game made for Super Famicon(aka Super Nintendo). It a RPG that completely follows the DBZ storyline(except to gain XP and all) so if your a DBZ fan you'll love it. It follows all the way up to when frezia is defeated. The game has a very unique yet easy to figure out battle system. You choose from 5 cards. The cards have 3 important things on them. The big symbol in the middle the symbols in the upper left and lower right. The middle symbol decides what style you attack in(If your characters special symbol matches ur card u do extra strong attack). The upper left is the attack and is messured in *'s, the higher the amount of *'s the better then attack. Defense is measured by lines like ~ until there are 3(goes into japanese symbols after). If your a DBZ fan you know how it ends. If not you chase Frezia around in multiple battles until Goku(the main hero) arives. Goku then defeats Frezia and its the end of the game.

Graphics- 6.5- The graphics kind of make you go what the funk at some points if ur a DBZ fan.
Game Play- 8.5- The game is fun but very short and you need a walkthrough if you dont have teh translated version.
Originality- 10- Completely original. I havent played any game like it.
Music- 7- But i rlly dont like most music in games
Replay- 4- After beating it once it loses most of its fun.

I'm running Windows 7, with an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, and a Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family graphics card.
I've tried using various video plug-ins. Though I've been told to use Pete's D3D plugin, I've found the most success in making the battles stream well using Pete's Open GL, though the D3D does get rid of the lag in certain high volume areas like the Golden Saucer. Regardless, with both plugins, I can't seem to get the gameplay in the battles to be completely smooth.

Essentially, I am more concerned about fluidity in the gameplay than I am about quality in the video presentation, and was wondering what the best settings might be for my computer. Thanks for any advice!]]>

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



This time the distribution will be a bit different. There are 3 versions, the full installer, the web installer and the binary. We highly recommend people to use our torrents to lower the load of our server and for faster distribution. You will need a torrent client such as utorrent to download them.

Windows:
Full installer [12.0mb]: Torrent | Googlecode direct dl
Web installer [2.88mb]: Torrent | Googlecode direct dl
Binaries [2.92mb / 7zip]: Torrent | Googlecode direct dl

(NOTE: Full installer includes Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables, which is ideal for offline installs of PCSX2. Web installer optionally fetches the Redists from Microsoft.com, if your computer doesn't already have them installed.)

Linux binary [3.1mb]: Torrent | Googlecode direct dl

* Added trackball support
* Fixed quiz game controls
* Restructured AWP games' characteriser handling

Added photo y2k2 decryption table [iq132]

Improved Z180 interrupt and timer handling. Added some missing save
state entries and fixed HALT. [Couriersud]

Rewrote rom/ram banking. 20pacgal now supports save state.
[Couriersud]

Added DIP LOCATIONS to Pengo, Jr. Pac-Man and clones. [Tafoid]

zaccaria.c: Improved sprite drawing, added DIP locations [hap]

Ported Super Famicom Box from MESS to MAME [Angelo Salese]

Modified the naomi clipping a bit to avoid so many black lines
at the bottom [David Haywood]

New Super 3D Golf Simulation - Waialae No Kiseki / Super Mahjong 2
(Super Famicom Box) [Angelo Salese]

Removed Groove on Fight boot hack, not anymore needed [Angelo Salese]

Added x/y boundary checking to ST-V bitmaps [Angelo Salese]

atarigx2.c: More rom name corrections as verified against a Moto
Frenzy Mini Deluxe PCB. Added ROM for the "Clarn" game link sub PCB.
[Charles MacDonald, P. Sealy, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]

Added lfsr-driven starfield to 20pacgal. The general principle is
understood now but star set selection and the star drawing condition
are guesses. [Couriersud]

Moved global and static variables in driver galaga into a machine
class. Renamed some variables, e.g. galaga_videoram and bosco_videoram

solve MT #3832. In zaccaria games, the intq and readyq are connected
to pia 6821 lines ca2 and cb1 which are edge driven. Just reading
readyq would miss to detect a state change if between reads readyq
went 0-1-0. Updated zaccaria.c and looping.c. Fixes MT #3832.
[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]

documentation: Cleaned up company names [hap]

Added NSC800 CPU emulation to the Z80 core [Sandro Ronco]

Updated Legendary Wings with actual PCB speed readings.
[Corrado Tomaselli]

Remove all references to the nonexistent "premov" instruction from the
NEC-V core. [Alex Jackson]

Corrected stack walk by using UNICODE_POSTFIX. Fixed some incorrect
function declarations in winmain.c. [Oliver Stoneberg]

cps2: Made ssf2t a parent set [Alex Jackson]

New driver: sigmab98.c [Luca Elia]

astrocorp.c: Added PCB layout for Astro M1.1 & M1.2 PCBs [Brian Troha]

Documented an energy bar debug switch in aladbl, disabled by default
[Angelo Salese]

in Pop Flamer [Angelo Salese]

Rewritten palette initialization in Naughty Boy HW by using the RESNET
[Angelo Salese]

Rewrote Z180 cycle accounting to create a basis for more exact
internal I/O and timer operations as well as implementing interrupt
priorities. Removed unused BIG_SWITCH code as well. [Couriersud]

MPU4 Updates [James Wallace]:
* Added trackball support
* Fixed quiz game controls
* Restructured AWP games' characteriser handling

Added photo y2k2 decryption table [iq132]

Improved Z180 interrupt and timer handling. Added some missing save
state entries and fixed HALT. [Couriersud]

Rewrote rom/ram banking. 20pacgal now supports save state.
[Couriersud]

Added DIP LOCATIONS to Pengo, Jr. Pac-Man and clones. [Tafoid]

zaccaria.c: Improved sprite drawing, added DIP locations [hap]

Ported Super Famicom Box from MESS to MAME [Angelo Salese]

Modified the naomi clipping a bit to avoid so many black lines
at the bottom [David Haywood]

New Super 3D Golf Simulation - Waialae No Kiseki / Super Mahjong 2
(Super Famicom Box) [Angelo Salese]

Removed Groove on Fight boot hack, not anymore needed [Angelo Salese]

Added x/y boundary checking to ST-V bitmaps [Angelo Salese]

atarigx2.c: More rom name corrections as verified against a Moto
Frenzy Mini Deluxe PCB. Added ROM for the "Clarn" game link sub PCB.
[Charles MacDonald, P. Sealy, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]

Added lfsr-driven starfield to 20pacgal. The general principle is
understood now but star set selection and the star drawing condition
are guesses. [Couriersud]

Moved global and static variables in driver galaga into a machine
class. Renamed some variables, e.g. galaga_videoram and bosco_videoram
to just videoram. [Couriersud]

solve MT #3832. In zaccaria games, the intq and readyq are connected
to pia 6821 lines ca2 and cb1 which are edge driven. Just reading
readyq would miss to detect a state change if between reads readyq
went 0-1-0. Updated zaccaria.c and looping.c. Fixes MT #3832.
[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]

documentation: Cleaned up company names [hap]

Added NSC800 CPU emulation to the Z80 core [Sandro Ronco]

Updated Legendary Wings with actual PCB speed readings.
[Corrado Tomaselli]

- 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.

Quote:We’re nearing the WiiSX beta 2 release, so we decided that it’s time to show a preview video of the current state of the emulator and tell you about our progress. Last summer, we released a beta of WiiSX so that we could put it on the back burner for a while and focus on Wii64. We weren’t too happy with WiiSX beta 1 because it lacked a proper gui and suffered from stuttering audio and other bugs. So, we’ve focused the past few weeks on adding a gui to WiiSX and improving the sound, pad plugin, and other various parts of the emulator. While there will still be plenty of work left for the future, we feel that this release will greatly improve the emulator’s playability and polish. Look forward to the release, but for now please enjoy the preview.

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]

lib/util/cdrom.c: Fixed stack corruption in CHD code
[Oliver Stoeneberg]

Implemented default EEPROMs for GTIClub, Hang Pilot, Asterix, X-Men
and Polygonet Commanders [David Haywood]

pengadvb: Improved inputs, the game can now be coined up. It magically
has sound too now. [hap]

S2650_SENSE_PORT is now active when data written is != 0 and inactive
when data == 0. It now acts as a line in a mame-sense. [Couriersud]

btime: Background vertical offset was off by one pixel, burger parts
positions are correct now. This also means Peter Pepper awkwardly
walks in the air, which is the way it is on the PCB. [hap]

fixed ROM names of tp84a (tp84 needs confirmation) [Team Japump]

Fixed hunchbkg ports. [Couriersud]

sprtmtch: Added Intermissions dipswitch [David Bain]

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]

lib/util/cdrom.c: Fixed stack corruption in CHD code
[Oliver Stoeneberg]

Implemented default EEPROMs for GTIClub, Hang Pilot, Asterix, X-Men
and Polygonet Commanders [David Haywood]

Fixed the texture ROM loading/order in Wave Shark. Textures look
better now, and the ROM check passes [David Haywood]

Fix for Target Hits missing sound. [Tafoid]

fspiderb: Added projectiles, game is playable now [hap]

General cleanup of PGM code [David Haywood]

Removed ROM Patch in Killing Blade and replaced with correct IGS025
return sequence fo China region (other sequences still unknown)
[XingXing]

pengadvb: Improved inputs, the game can now be coined up. It magically
has sound too now. [hap]

S2650_SENSE_PORT is now active when data written is != 0 and inactive
when data == 0. It now acts as a line in a mame-sense. [Couriersud]

btime: Background vertical offset was off by one pixel, burger parts
positions are correct now. This also means Peter Pepper awkwardly
walks in the air, which is the way it is on the PCB. [hap]

fixed ROM names of tp84a (tp84 needs confirmation) [Team Japump]

Fixed hunchbkg ports. [Couriersud]

sprtmtch: Added Intermissions dipswitch [David Bain]

Fixed coinage of desertbr [yasuhiro]

- The entire volume balance has been adjusted.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine.
In the start demo of "City Hunter", the problem that the lower side of the
screen has fallen into disorder by one frame (generated by v2.40) was
solved. I think that the timing has approached a real machine in even
other games.
- "Force V-Sync (All Hz)" was added to "Setting->Screen" menu. When the
check is put in here, the V-Sync setting is permitted regardless of the PC
display environment. Use it with an old video card etc.
- 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.

There is no middle-man. You can rest assured that 100% of your purchase goes directly to the developers and non-profits as you specify (minus credit card fees).

That's right, you can get five popular indie games that are completely DRM free and pay what you want ($80 value), not a bad deal for those looking to have some fun a bit cheaper.

Right now I paid $5.75 but I plan on paying more later when I have more money to contribute. This deal is too good to pass up, you'll be directly contributing to charities and developers in the process and get five awesome games in return.

In case you want to build the emu (eww), here is some info to make your lives easier:

You're gonna need Visual Studio .NET 2008 (NOT the express version!) to build the project.
Visual Studio .NET 2010 (NOT the express version!) will also work but it might do weird stuff, so I would not recommend it if you're not sure what you're doing.

A recent version of the DirectX 9.0c SDK is also required to build most stuff.
You can get it from here.

nullAICA uses optional sound streaming through the SDL development library so you'll need it to build with SDL support. SDL support will also have to be defined in the nullAICA source code.
You can get SDL from here but I'm not sure if the plugin builds with this specific version.
Note: Sound streaming through SDL is probably broken anyway.

If you want to build the emulator with MMU support you have to define MMU support. This should be placed in "types.h" (last time I checked, it was already there but commented out).

If you want to build a NAOMI, ATOMISWAVE, etc. version you should define which version you want in "plugin_types.h". The default definition is DC_PLATFORM_NORMAL (the definition is placed after the list with the available versions).

drkMapleDevices comes with optional support for the LCD screen of some Logitech keyboards (G15).
You've got to to define LCD support in "drkMapleDevices.cpp" for it to work. The LCD SDK is also needed to build the plugin that way.
I attached the SDK version I used in this post.

Last time I checked, nullExtDev needed the WinPcap library to build.
You can get WinPcap from here.


That's all about compiling I think, unless I forgot something.
If something does not build, check if you have and pointed to all the needed libs.


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


Now, if you want to run the emulator (ewww):

Be sure you have the same Visual C++ Runtimes and DirectX 9.0c versions that were used to compile the emulator and/or the plugins. If VS .NET 2008 and the latest DirectX 9.0c SDK were used they should be those two:
Download details: Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)
Download details: DirectX Redist (February 2010)

The same rule applies to SDL, WinPcap and the Logitech thing. If you miss the compiled libraries of those and the plugins/emulator were compiled with those development libraries, their features will either not work, or the emulator will not work at all.

ImgReader uses the .CDI File Mounter (pfctoc.dll) from Padus to mount .cdi images. Those images will not work without it. You should get it and place it in the plugins directory of the emulator (where ImgReader_Win32.dll is placed).
You can get the .CDI File Mounter from here.]]> Instructions follow, by Psyman

Most of the code is written by me, parts of it are written by ZeZu, and maby others (?). Psyman was our main tester during all these years (With various others joining for short time periods) and he's slowly getting into editing the source to fix bugs ( as i no longer do it myself).

Yes, the code is ugly, hacky, buggy and often just plain wrong -- but still better than not released, righty ?

I hope this is as much help to others as it has been to me
