Source Changes

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

Added a large number of previously-dumped PALs to various games across the whole source base. [MASH]

 

Some graphics improvements to the Magic Fly driver. [Roberto Fresca]

 

Fixed the fire button INPUT_PORT of player2 in Lethal Enforcers. [Cananas]

 

Changed the coordinates where for offscreen lightgun reloading, moving it from the upper-left to the upper-right for better compatibility. [Cananas]

 

Fixed interrupt clearing function in 6840 module. [El Condor]

 

Added multiple input controls in -listxml output for games with more than one type. Added pedal control type. Added more info on analog controls as defined in the driver: minimum, maximum, sensitivity, keydelta, and reverse. This required the 'control' attribute in the XML to be moved into an element. There can now be more than one 'control' element in the input secction. [uRebelScum]

 

Improved the description of screens in -listxml. Multiple screens are now listed, each with their own attributes. Rotation is now fully specified (rather than just vertical/horizontal). The width and height now describe the raw game screen before any rotation. [Krick]

 

Fixed bug that caused the UI to be impacted by command-line brightness, contrast, gamma controls. [Aaron Giles]

 

Fixed bug that prevented the contrast from pushing vector games to their maximum brightness. [Aaron Giles]

 

Rewrote Crystal Castles driver from the schematics: [Aaron Giles]

* corrected clock speeds and frame rates

* reimplemented video system to use mixer PROM

* now using sync PROM to generate interrupts at correct times

* sync PROM is also used to determine proper visible area and VBLANK timings

* implemented the VRAM write protection by using the WP PROM

* hooked up second player trackball properly

* fixed coin counters

* now computing palette based on resistor weights

* watchdog is now set for 8 VBLANKs to match the schematics

* added save state support

* mapped complete memory space according to schematics

 

Fixed bug in JED parsing code that would checksum fuses beyond the number explicitly specified. Some programs write extra fuse data beyond the end and this should not be part of the checksum. Also made the checksum parsing more flexible to handle JED files with extra 0 digits in the file checksum. [Aaron Giles]

 

Removed xml2info utility. The -listinfo format was retired over 2 years ago. It is time to move on. [Aaron Giles]

 

Changed the core makefile to put back specific rules for building EXEs to promote more commonality with platforms that don't put an extension on executable files. [Aaron Giles]

 

Added gapless variants to the dual and triple screen layouts. [Aaron Giles]

 

Removed 1 pixel border now that the Direct3D code is properly setting texture clamping. This should get rid of the gaps in the Darius layout, which were caused by bilinear filtering the last pixel on the screen with the black pixel border. [Aaron Giles]

 

Fixed -effect none to longer produce an error message. [Aaron Giles]

 

Removed the VIDEO_PIXEL_ASPECT_RATIO_* flags for drivers. These flags were used inconsistently, and can be effectively computed if necessary from the screen width/height and orientation. [Aaron Giles]

 

Changed the on screen display so that pressing ENTER resets a value to its default. [Aaron Giles]

 

Moved all options to a single central location in windows/config.c. Cleaned up and reordered the options more logically. [Aaron Giles]

 

Rewrote windows.txt to reflect all of the new options and to update the behavior of existing options to match the current implementation. [Aaron Giles]

PSPVBA: GameBoy Advance Emulator for PSP v1.1.0 (smooth)

July 14th, 2006, 15:23 Posted By: zx-81

 

Hi All,

 

Here is a new version of PSPVBA the GameBoy Advance Emulator for PSP.

 

What's new in version 1.1.0 :

 

- It works now on 2.5 and 2.6 FW (i've tested it using DevHook)

- All the graphic part has been rewritten to replace SDL by direct GU access (faster)

- Sound is now played at 22Khz instead of 11Khz (i can play it up to 44Khz, it's better but slower  ).

- The images are now smooth (using the GU)

- Snapshot files are now in PNG format (instead of BMP)

 

Two binary versions (for 2.x and 1.5 FW) and sources are included in the zip archive.

 

This should be the last version for 2.x because i will try to use the ME (available only on 1.5)
