Made the ‘Arcade’ bootleg of the Genesis version of Super Street Fighter 2 work.

This version takes coins and plays like an arcade game, (real credits, dips etc.)

but is based on the Japanese Genesis release of the game. Probably made either

because it was low-cost, or because nobody had found a way to bootleg CPS2 at the

time. (set name ssf2ghw )

 

Thanks to stephh for the help with this one.

 

This will be added to MAME one day, can’t give an ETA on when because I want to

be 100% happy with the code and compatibility of the MegadDive and SMS emulation

before I port it back.

Atari emulator

Changes:

2006/09/22 - version 0.9.4beta released

 

This release has one major highlight: two last MMU emulation bugs have

been fixed and ARAnyM now runs Linux-m68k stable for days without any

single issue. I can now fully recommend ARAnyM for Linux-m68k kernel

development and also Debian-m68k development. Hoping that it will help

the m68k linux platform to survive for a little longer.

 

There is also a great new feature for those who are tired of setting up

virtual disk drives for booting to TOS/GEM system: ARAnyM now supports

bootstrapping directly from host filesystem! You need new versions of

both EmuTOS and FreeMiNT kernel (with built-in HostFS driver) and

the following configuration (in the [GLOBAL] section of ARAnyM config file):

------ aranym config --------

Bootstrap = /path/to/mint.prg

BootstrapArgs = DEBUG_LEVEL=1 BOOT_DELAY=0 MEM_PROT=NO

BootDrive = C

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

Of course you also need to define the BootDrive (C:) host path in the

[HOSTFS] config section. FreeMiNT tries to locate the modules and other

files in usual C:\MINT\ path that is redirected to your host filesystem.

 

Other news and fixes:

 

o new command line parameter -P (as in Position) will position the ARAnyM

window to your desired location - enter the coordinates of upper left

window corner ("-P 50,50") or try to center the window with "-P center".

This should help especially on MS-Windows where the ARAnyM window often

ended partially off screen.

 

o Host desktop AES clipboard interconnection. Currently for MS-Windows

only. You need a special FreeMiNT driver that creates a new filesystem

in FreeMiNT where you can point the AES to store the Clipboard. Find

more information in documentation at http://wiki.aranym.org/

 

o various improvements in graphics area - major speed up for bitplane modes,

speed up of graphics on Mac OS X, OpenGL alpha mask fix and others.

 

o Mac OS X: Swapped meaning of CTRL and META key for Mac OS X back to

"the logical way": The Apple key(s) represent left and right meta key

and CTRL key is mapped to Atari CTRL key.

A new, more Mac like set of keyboard shortcuts defined:

Left Apple +, = Open preferences dialog

Left Apple + q = Quit

Left Apple + r = Reboot

Left Apple + escape = Grab/Ungrab mouse cursor

Left Apple + d = Enable debugger (if built-in)

Left Apple + s = Save screenshot

Left Apple + f = Toggle fullscreen mode

 

o MS-Windows: corrected/improved window/fullscreen toggle.

 

o bug #1521310 fixed: Shifters are now released before the GUI thread

is started.

 

o MIDI now outputs raw data which could be used for mapping the MIDI port

to host MIDI directly (untested)

 

o new compile-time configuration (--enable-protect2k) improves compatibility

with ST/TT/Falcon where hardware protects first 2 kB of RAM against

user mode accesses. Enabled by default in MMU build only since it can

cause some performance degradation.

24/09/06 - ScummVM DS v0.9.1beta1 Released for Testing

 

This is still a beta, so there's no full instructions yet. Using it should be the same as with version 0.61, except the build you need to use for your game may have changed.

 

Please let me know of any bugs you find, and whether it runs on your card reader, by posting in the forum below. The driver has been updated for M3 and SD devices, so the compatibility may have improved, there is also now NinjaSD support. Max Media Dock support is being worked on and will probably appear in the next beta. There is no G6 support.

 

Build A: All Lucasarts games

Build B: Beneath a Steel Sky, Flight of the Amazon Queen

Build C: Simon the Sorcerer 1/2, Legend of Kyrandia, Gobliiins

 

 

Here are the new features:

 

* New Games Supported: Simon the Sorcerer 2 and Legend of Kyrandia

* Made the DS turn off when you quit a game

* Updated flash device drivers

* Added a 200% scale option for the zoomed view

* Change zoom range for the zoomed view so you can zoom right out

* Speed increase!

* Fixed crashing when saving in Beneath a Steel Sky

* Fixed inventory not appearing in Beneath a Steel Sky

* Fixed incorrect colours in frontend

The final version will be released when the rest of the ScummVM team release 0.9.1. This should be within a month or so. If you have problems with this, please use version 0.61 instead.
