    Festalon Updated

    olaf
    By olaf,

    Festalon is an NSF plug-in for Winamp, the changes are described below for version 0.4.0.

     

    - Fixed a rather stupid bug that could break loading of certain non-bankswitched NSFs

    - XMMS: Fixed a "bug" that was breaking the ALSA output plugin

    - Added partial NSFE support

    - Console: Altered which keys enable and disable channels. Listed in order of channel: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,!,@,#,$,%,^,&,*,(,)

    - Added code to allow NSFs with a specified load address lower than 0x6000 to play

    - XMMS: Fixed a bug which could cause severe problems on many output plugins

    - Console: Improved the correctness of the time reported(actual calculated

    - Time into the song rather than how long the song has been playing)

    - Console: Removed DOS support. Use Linux, crazy DOS people!

    - Added support for NSFs with multiple expansion sound chips. It may not sound perfect, due to errors in relative volume levels in Festalon being magnified between the sound chips

    - Massive source code cleanup and movement towards modularization. 0.4.0 will probably be a bit slower than 0.3.0

    - Removed the ugly NeoFill() hacks I used to get VRC7 sound working

    By James,

    http://haze.mame.net/

     

    I'm currently using the following tools from mingw.org

     

    http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe?download

    http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/w32api-3.1.tar.gz?download

    http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/gcc-core-3...tar.gz?download

     

    and

    http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/gdb-5.2.1-1.exe?download

    http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/binutils-2...tar.gz?download

     

    as well as nasm/mkdir/rm from http://www.mame.net/zips/mingw-over.zip

    and the directx headers http://www.mame.net/zips/dx70_mgw.zip

     

     

    it will probably still compile with the older tools but I'm no longer testing using those

     

    this will be the last update here until sometime in Jan next year

     

    0.89u5

    General Improvements

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

     

     

    Adjusted NamcoS2 sound balance

     

    Solar Warrior driver update [bryan McPhail]

    Fixed NMI & FIRQ handling according to schematics.

    Fixed clock speeds.

    Implemented GFX priority register/priority PROM

     

    IremGA20 64-bit crash fix [stephen Behling]

     

    Misc updates [Nathan Woods]

    src/cpu/i86/i86.c:

    src/cpu/i86/i286.c:

    - Fixed disassembler calls, so that instructions are not falsely

    disassembled as 32-bit

     

    src/cpu/i386/i386op16.c:

    - Implemented SMSW instruction

       

    src/cpu/i386/i386dasm.c:

    - Marked retf instruction as DASMFLAG_STEP_OUT

     

    src/x86drc.h:

    - Added macros for pushfd() and popfd()

     

    Added 'TRACEOVER' support to debugger (see help) [Nathan Woods]

     

    New Debugger Commands [Aaron Giles]

    - snap [<filename>] - takes a snapshot and saves it to the given <filename>;

    if <filename> is omitted, this is equivalent to hitting F12

    - gi[int] [<irqline>] - executes until the current CPU takes the interrupt

    line specified by <irqline>; if <irqline> is omitted, executes until any IRQ

    is taken on the current CPU. This has been mapped to F7 as well.

    - gv[blank] - executes until the next VBLANK; this is useful for stepping

    frame-by-frame from within the debugger. This has been mapped to F8.

     

    Various Improvements [sebastien Volpe]

     

    galpani3:

    - palette, inputs, sound hooked up, backgounds 'decoded' (RLE)

     

    jchan:

    - slight cleanup, sound hooked up, tile area identified

    - jchan2 now passes initial checks

     

    kaneko16 (bonkadv):

    - priorities corrected according Luca's scheme

    - sound 'improvements' (both banking and rom loading)

    - game name updated

    - interrupts scheduling change (not correct, but somewhat improved, see

    comment) and as a consequence, fake region dsw is removed.

     

    srmp6: new driver, Seta System 12 ?

    - many things todo, gfx decoding would be nice!

     

    toki:

    - correct frequencies

     

    Started minor cleanup of System 32 driver (some things are probably broken for

    now) [David Haywood]

     

    hypereac2 sound fix, sh2 bounds overflow fix, atarijsa memcpy fix [Mame32Plus]

     

    Improvements to Namco 54xx Noise Generator [Jarek Burczynski]

    Type A, and B emulated, type C algo still unknown

     

    Minor Sega Update [Aaron Giles]

    - renamed dbrkr to desertbr

    - cleaned up the math chip emulation, should be much closer now

    - fixed off-by-1 column scroll in wrestwra

    - fixed shadows in S18 so they don't affect any VDP-drawn pixels

    General Improvements

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

     

    MC8193 update [Nicola Salmoria]

    - expanded the decryption tables, they change when bit 15 of the address is

       set

    - table for 317-0066 (Altered Beast) almost complete, but there are still

       some uncertain values for opcodes above 8000 (not actually needed)

    - incomplete table for 317-0054 (Shinobi). Still not enough to decrypt the

       program.

    - tables for 317-0043 (wbml) and ninjakd2 derived by comparison of the

       original with the decrypted bootleg. They are incomplete but enough to fully

       decrypt the program. Unfortunately Block Gal and Perfect Billiards cannot be

       done in the same way because encrypted and decrypted programs are different

       versions.

     

    i386 fixes [Nathan Woods]

    src/cpu/i386/i386dasm.c:

        - disassembler will now list segment prefixes when appropriate

     

    src/cpu/i386/i386op16.c:

    - fixed LMSW opcode

     

    New Sega X-Board driver [Aaron Giles]

    many improvements over the old driver

     

    -- improved sprites (see thunderblade)

    -- improved road layer (see abcop, thunderblade)

    -- guns in line of fire (but it hangs at the end of the level)

    -- better tilemap support (from 16b)

     

    -- gprider no longer boots (nested interrupts)

     

    Removed a rom patch in Exzisus [Nicola Salmoria]

     

    Rearranged TNZS sets based on new information [Nicola Salmoria]

     

    Cleaned up Return of Invaders driver [Nicola Salmoria]

     

    nmk16 video update [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]

    - Added sprites priorities (still few problems with priority = 0)

    - Fixed raphero and mmacros2 background

    - Fixed manybloc (added scrolls, fixed background gfx)

    - Added background banking in acrobatm

     

    updated S2650 CPU core to count more accurate clock cycle counts [Juergen Buchmueller]
