Neogeo emulator for Unix

2006-08-31 - GnGeo 0.7 released!

A new version of GnGeo has just been released!

 

It features various enhancements such as the official switch to a directory (with one file per ROM) instead of a single & huge file (the old romrc) to manage all the ROM drivers in a more flexible way, many GP2X port improvements (easier way to exit, new menu system, bug with volume change fixed...), the addition of a biospath option which is now used to define BIOS files location instead of rompath that now only indicates where to look for ROMs (ie. BIOS may be in a separate directory than ROMs), etc.

 

You may see the complete changelog for details and grab GnGeo 0.7 packages (including GnGeo2X) from our new BerliOS project's download area.

 

By the way, you certainly noticed the new layout and available pages. An emulator such as GnGeo deserved a better website, so now there is a lot more content, an updated pastel design, and the whole is 100% dynamic and standard compliant! Enjoy

 

Changes in 0.7

* GP2X/ARM Save state support for cyclone and drz80

* GP2X: Change the exit sequence to L&R&Select or L&R&Start. Actually it's not really an exit sequence anymore...

* GP2X: Add a minimal menu system (access it via the "exit" sequence

* Add longname option in the romrc.d files to describe tha full name of a driver (must be the first line of the .rc file)

* Support dos line ending in the rom.rc files and in the gngeorc file

* Fix various automake stuff to allow Multi-Architecture Builds

* Romrc.d officially replace the big romrc file. Every game have a unique file (ie: mslug.rc) that go to $(prefix)/share/gngeo/romrc.d by default. The path is configurable via the romrcdir option

* Add biospath option. This option tel where the bios is. Now you can have your roms and your bios in different place

* GP2X: Fix TVout with Selector (still some work to do)

* Fix a bug with error handling when a bios file isn't present.

* GP2X: Add Squidge's MMU Hack (via mmuhack.o module, more stable).

* GP2X: Fix the bug that prevent volume change when using a .cf file

* Fix miexchng slowdown, again

Source Changes

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

Fixed options_output_ini_file() and options_output_ini_mame_file() to properly handle string options containing spaces. [Nathan Woods]

 

Fixed incorrect DIP switches in Trivia (Version 1.03), Selection, and Poker games (getrivia.c). [wolf676]

 

Added PORT_DIPLOCATION macros to a number of drivers based on research. [Roberto Fresca]

 

Fixed several issues with pausing and the multithreading code. [Nathan Woods]

 

Cleaned up the vacfdisp module to display 14 and 16 segment displays. Added a separate character set for the OKI MSC1937. Changes Scorpion 2 to the new system. Tidied up the 6840 emulator a bit. [El Condor]

 

Attempted to fix the bad Space Odyssey ROM by using data from the previous dump. It is still marked BAD_DUMP (we would like to get an actual dump), but the new Space Odyssey is now playable. [MASH]

 

Removed recently-introduced case dependency in the ROM naming. [buddabing]

 

Added new option -multithreading (-mt) which enables the previous multithreaded rendering code. This code has had problems on some systems, especially pre-XP systems, so consider it experimental. If you want to help debug issues, enable LOG_THREADS in windows/window.c and post them to MAMETesters.org with a description of your problem and your system. If you don't have hyperthreading, dual core, or a multi-CPU system, don't bother turning this flag on. [Aaron Giles]

 

Changed the behavior of the led7seg primitive. It now no longer takes a state value but accepts states from 0-255, allowing independent control over all 7 segments and the decimal. Ordered the segments according to standard order. Updated the Turbo driver to do its own BCD decoding via an LS48 decoder to control the segments directly. This will break existing layouts using the led7seg primitive. [Aaron Giles]

 

Further turbo driver cleanup. Still in WIP. [Aaron Giles]

* derived sprite scaling from PROMs and R/C values (still not 100%)

* rewrote most of the video/sprite handling

* identified all PROMs and used them where appropriate

* added a more complete 8279 implementation

* converted 7-segment LEDs to the new behavior described above
