WinUAE 1.1 (02.10.2005)

=======================

 

Major bugs introduced in 1.0 fixed:

 

- Picasso96 graphics corruption after ALT-TAB

- Zipped Amiga Forever Kickstart ROM image decryption problem

- JIT FPU ACOS bug (incorrect result if argument was negative)

 

Older bugs fixed:

 

- More stable on the fly configuration loading

- In windowed mode Amiga window height was sometimes slightly

  larger than requested size

- "the desktop is too small for the specified window size"-check

  was not completely correct

- AHI recording mode memory leak

- Some Amiga monitor drivers work now properly (for example Euro36)

- Incorrect paths if WinUAE was run from networked drive

- Some custom chipset emulation bugs (Obliterator intro, Elfmania

  scoreboard, Warp and others)

- Directory filesystem directory modification date bug if comment

  or protection flags were modified

- Improved directory filesystem compatibility

- Rare disk emulation bug introduced in 0.9.90

- Action Replay statefile restore bug introduced in 0.9.90

- OCS/ECS color translation to native colors fixed. (this was bug

  since the beginning of UAE..) Colors are now slightly brighter.

  No effect on AGA-mode colors.

 

New features:

 

- Configurable Catweasel joystick support, MK4 mouse support added

  (NOTE: Right and middle mouse button may not work with all mice,

  requires Catweasel driver/firmware update)

- MMKeyboard support added

- Transparent "drive led status bar"

- SPTI (Windows 2K/XP) SCSI emulation includes non-CDROM SCSI devices

- Improved uaescsi.device SCSI interface selection

- Custom emulation updates (Death Trap, Loons Docs, Spanish Rose by

  Creed, Filled Perspective by Zero Defects, Himalaya by Avalanche..)

- Improved default path setting, Amiga Forever 2005 paths supported

- More missing keycodes added to input-panel

- Copper debugger: tracing, single step and breakpoint

- Disk swapper: right button doubleclick in "Disk image"-column:

  removes disk in disk swapper panel. right button singleclick in

  "Drive"-column: remove disk in drive

- New-style ROM config entries

- Compressed hardfiles supported (limitations: max 100MB, all written

  data will be lost after reset or exit, hardfile file name extension

  must be either hdz, zip, rar or 7z)

- Hardfile drag&drop to harddisk-panel

10/02/2005 - bsnes v0.012 released

      The main features of this release are sound support and improved NMI / IRQ timing.

 

    Changelog:

* Added S-DSP emulation

* Added sound output support via DirectSound -- no sound buffering though, so sound is muted by default

* Added option to record raw sound output to WAV files

* Added multiple color adjustment filters to the video output

* Added mode3/4 direct color support

* Added mode7 direct color and mosaic support

* Greatly improved mode7 rendering algorithm thanks to anomie

* Fixed mode7 screen repitition and EXTBG effects

* Greatly increased accuracy of NMI and IRQ timing, and emulated many newly discovered hardware quirks involving the two

* A few speed improvements courtesy of Nach for profiling the code for me.

Not much to say...

You can now try version 1.8.0 beta 3 (long time ?).

October 01, 2005 - Mednafen 0.3.5 Released

Changes:

 

* Added code to allow for writing to SDL framebuffers directly, without using OpenGL, controlled with the command-line option "-vdriver".

  -vdriver 0 = OpenGL

  -vdriver 1 = SDL framebuffer (bilinear interpolation and Lynx screen rotation are not available).

 

* Lynx:  Disabled the crude(as in, non-working) stereo sound support, and added a low-pass filter to make the sound sound much closer to what comes out of a real Lynx.

 

* PCE:  Adjusted the visible horizontal display area, and overscan, in the 7 and 10MHz dot clock modes.

 

* PCE:  Expanded the visible vertical display area by 8 pixels(4 on top, 4 on bottom).

 

* PCE:  Altered VDC timing agaaaain.

 

* PCE:  Block memory transfers now take 5 cycles(read, write, alter source, alter dest, decrement length?) per byte transferred instead of 6.  Fixes "Wonder Momo".

 

* PCE:  Altered HuC6280 instruction timing slightly(removed the tests for indirect indexed and indexed indirect addressing modes to use extra CPU cycles).

 

* PCE:  Corrected a timer emulation bug, fixes "Dragon Egg"'s tempo.

 

* PCE:  Increased the number of cpu cycles per scanline from 454 to 455, based on tests I performed.

 

* GB/GBC:  A sound enable register is now initialized properly on reset, fixing at least one unlicensed game.

 

* Lynx:  Disabled the superclipping code, as it's buggy(causes bad sprite clipping and invisible mountains(OHNOS) in Steel Talons) and doesn't appear to be necessary.

 

* The mouse cursor is now hidden.
