The Emulation Timeline:December 2007

Changes from 0.121
==================
1) Up to date with baseline 0.121 and SDLMAME 0.122u2 (RB)


WARNING: build instructions are now different from prior to 0.121u3!
For PowerPC Macs and the PS3, you now must set "BIGENDIAN=1" instead of picking a specific CPU.

NOTE: The makefile should be fully SMP safe, so use make -j3 for dual-core 
and -j5 for quad-core to build MESS at speeds never before achieved.

Changes in 2.3.6 (December 24, 2007):

Brief summary :

+ More than 25% emulation speedup vs Bochs 2.3.5 release!

      - Thanks to Darek Mihocka (http://www.emulators.com)
        for providing patches and ideas that made the
        speedup possible!

+ Up to 40% speedup vs Bochs 2.3.5 release with trace cache optimization!

- Lots of bugfixes in CPU emulation
- Bochs benchmarking support
- Added emulation of Intel SSE4.2 instruction set

Detailed change log :

- CPU
  - Added emulation of SSE4.2 instruction set, to enable use
        --enable-sse=4 --enable-sse-extension configure options
    to enable POPCNT instruction only use configure option
        --enable-popcnt
  - Implemented MTRR emulation, to enable use --enable-mtrr configure
    option. MTRRs is enabled by default when cpu-level >= 6.
  - Implemented experimental MONITOR/MWAIT support including optimized
    MWAIT CPU state and hardware monitoring of physical address range,
    to enable use --enable-monitor-mwait configure option.
  - Removed hostasm optimizations, after Bochs rebenchmarking it was found
    that the feature bringing no speedup or even sometimes slows down
    emulation!
  - Merged trace cache optimization patch, the trace cache optimization
    is enabled by default when configure with --enable-all-optimizations
    option, to disable trace cache optimization configure with
        --disable-trace-cache
  - Many minor bugfixes in CPU emulation (both ia32 and x86-64)
  - Updated CPU instrumentation callbacks

- Bochs Internal Debugger and Disassembler
  - Many fixes in Bochs internal debugger and disassembler, some debugger
    interfaces significantly changed due transition to the param tree
    architecture
  - Added support for restoring of the CPU state from external file
    directly from Bochs debugger

- Configure and compile
  - Renamed configure option --enable-4meg-pages to --enable-large-pages.
    The option enables page size extensions (PSE) which refers to 2M pages
    as well.
  - Removed --enable-save-restore configure option, save/restore feature
    changed to be one of the basic Bochs features and compiled by default
    for all configurations.
  - Added new Bochs benchmark mode. To run Bochs in benchmark mode execute
    it with new command line option 'bochs -benchmark time'. The emulation
    will be automatically stopped after 'time' millions of emulation
    cycles executed.
  - Another very useful option for benchmarking of Bochs could be enabled
    using new 'print_timestamps' directive from .bochsrc:
        print_timestamps: enable=1
  - Added --enable-show-ips option to all configuration scripts used to
    build release binaries, so all future releases will enjoy IPS display.
  - Enable alignment check in the CPU and #AC exception by default for
    --cpu-level >= 4 (like in real hardware)

- SF patches applied

  - Merged trace cache optimization patch, the trace cache optimization
    is enabled by default when configure with --enable-all-optimizations 
    option, to disable trace cache optimization configure with
        --disable-trace-cache
  - Many minor bugfixes in CPU emulation (both ia32 and x86-64)
  - Updated CPU instrumentation callbacks

- Bochs Internal Debugger and Disassembler
  - Many fixes in Bochs internal debugger and disassembler, some debugger
    interfaces significantly changed due transition to the param tree
    architecture
  - Added support for restoring of the CPU state from external file
    directly from Bochs debugger

- Configure and compile
  - Renamed configure option --enable-4meg-pages to --enable-large-pages.
    The option enables page size extensions (PSE) which refers to 2M pages
    as well.
  - Removed --enable-save-restore configure option, save/restore feature 
    changed to be one of the basic Bochs features and compiled by default 
    for all configurations.
  - Added new Bochs benchmark mode. To run Bochs in benchmark mode execute
    it with new command line option 'bochs -benchmark time'. The emulation
    will be automatically stopped after 'time' millions of emulation 
    cycles executed.
  - Another very useful option for benchmarking of Bochs could be enabled
    using new 'print_timestamps' directive from .bochsrc:
        print_timestamps: enable=1
  - Added --enable-show-ips option to all configuration scripts used to 
    build release binaries, so all future releases will enjoy IPS display.
  - Enable alignment check in the CPU and #AC exception by default for
    --cpu-level >= 4 (like in real hardware)

Changes in 2.3.6 (December 24, 2007):

Brief summary :

+ More than 25% emulation speedup vs Bochs 2.3.5 release!

      - Thanks to Darek Mihocka (http://www.emulators.com) 
        for providing patches and ideas that made the
        speedup possible!

+ Up to 40% speedup vs Bochs 2.3.5 release with trace cache optimization!

- Lots of bugfixes in CPU emulation
- Bochs benchmarking support
- Added emulation of Intel SSE4.2 instruction set

Detailed change log :

- CPU
  - Added emulation of SSE4.2 instruction set, to enable use

    to enable POPCNT instruction only use configure option
        --enable-popcnt
  - Implemented MTRR emulation, to enable use --enable-mtrr configure
    option. MTRRs is enabled by default when cpu-level >= 6.

  - 64-bit compatibility and speed fixes, submitted by Skito.

New in v1.2
-----------

 - Bits of code moved and changed to accomodate MAME 0.114.  All code is now in the
   MAME core.

Introduction:
--------------

This project is based on the atari 2600 opensource 
emulator called stella. You can find the original 
sources on its sourceforge page:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=41847

This version uses the same sources than the original, 
there are only some changes on the button mapping, 
in order to use with the gamecube gamepad. It uses 
gc-linux to run on a gamecube/wii, and the SDL libraries 
for this system. It will boot using the ARAM filesystem 
method

You can find the latest version of this project on its 
official forum here:

Changes in version 2.0.5
------------------------

  * changed the debugger window layout so that there is a larger window
    with only two tabs; also more information is displayed, and the
    mouse wheel can be used for scrolling the disassembly and memory
    dump views
  * implemented Lua scripting in the debugger; this makes it possible to
    write complex rules for breakpoints, but can have other uses as
    well, since the script can read and write memory, I/O ports, and CPU
    registers, in addition to having access to the standard Lua library
    functions
  * added a simple monitor to the debugger; the supported commands
    include assemble, disassemble, trace, memory and I/O port dump and
    modify, printing and changing CPU registers, memory compare, copy,
    fill, search, load and save, and more (use ? to print the list of
    available commands, or ? N for help on command N)
  * improved the audio quality of AVI recording, at the expense of
    making it somewhat slower
  * added new command line option for selecting the GUI style and colors
  * a few minor bug fixes and improvements

    available commands, or ? N for help on command N)
  * improved the audio quality of AVI recording, at the expense of
    making it somewhat slower
  * added new command line option for selecting the GUI style and colors
  * a few minor bug fixes and improvements

Changes in version 2.0.5
------------------------

  * changed the debugger window layout so that there is a larger window
    with only two tabs; also more information is displayed, and the
    mouse wheel can be used for scrolling the disassembly and memory
    dump views
  * implemented Lua scripting in the debugger; this makes it possible to
    write complex rules for breakpoints, but can have other uses as
    well, since the script can read and write memory, I/O ports, and CPU
    registers, in addition to having access to the standard Lua library
    functions
  * added a simple monitor to the debugger; the supported commands
    include assemble, disassemble, trace, memory and I/O port dump and
    modify, printing and changing CPU registers, memory compare, copy,
    fill, search, load and save, and more (use ? to print the list of
    available commands, or ? N for help on command N)
  * improved the audio quality of AVI recording, at the expense of
    making it somewhat slower
  * added new command line option for selecting the GUI style and colors
  * a few minor bug fixes and improvements

New 0.8.0 beta version based on 0.7.2a sources (Notaz release)

Changes/Bug fixes/Updates

- now it's possible to put uae folder in any directory (before uae4all crashed further the third subdirectory)
- no more problems with long name file and no limit for number of files in the rom folder
- changed browse system file for the roms dir: now it's quick with plenty of rom files too. Besides Up/Down (keeping pushed to move on),  there are Left/RIght to jump 16 files and L/R shoulder to jump 32 files
- improved user GUI code (W.I.P.) and reduced menu font (thanks to Eraso)
- improved mouse speed
- improved user GUI navigation (buttons repeat)
- added "Save General configuration" and "Save configuration for current game"
- added "Save Script for current game": it makes a script file to launch a specific game directly (using GMenu2X or default GP2X menu).  If it used during emulation (having enabled it in the "More Options" menu), it makes automatically an icon taking a screenshot from the current game (32x32 px)
- added Eject option for all drives
- added X button to go back to the main menu (such as START/HOME)
- added everything new option for the command line
- now emulator remembers last selected device input (mouse, joystick, or keyboard). For more comfort, default device is mouse. 
- default games navigation folder is now "roms"
- compiled with "profiling" trick (thanks to notaz: http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?showtopic=28490&hl=gcc%20dynamic%20profiling&st=15)
- added new menu "More Options" with the following settings:
	- Video Mode (moved from main menu): to choose between PAL and NTSC video mode (it needs to reset the emulation)
	- Autosave (moved from main menu): it allows in-game saves 
	- Status ln (moved from main mnu): shows fps and drives status
	- Memory Chip Size: it's possible to choose between 512KB and 1MB RAM chip (it needs to reset the emulation)
	- Number of drives: it's possible to choose from 1 up to 4 drives. It needs to reset emulation to take effect. IMPORTANT! To insert adf disks into each drive (in Filemanager section), the buttons are: 
	B for DF0:, Y for DF1:, A for DF2:, X for DF3:
	- Use Autofire: helpful in some shooter. If it's enabled, you can switch on/off during emulation with Y or stick click
	- Enable Screenshot: when enabled, it's possibile take a screenshot with Y (it works only if joystick device is selected). Images are saved with progressive name (shot0.png, shot1.png, etc.) in "screenshots" folder (png format) 
	- Enable scripts: when enabled, you can make a script file during emulation pushing Y 
	   (it works only if joystick device is selected)
	- Skip intro: when enabled, skip the uae4all splash screen
	- Kickstart: you can choose between 1.3, 2.0 and 3.1 kickstart version. To take effect it needs 
	   to reset the emulation. Moreover, the kickstart roms must be put into "kickstarts" dir and called
	   "kick13.rom", "kick20.rom", "kick31.rom". If there aren't during the uae boot, the emulator will search "kick.rom"  in the main folder
	- Enable HW scaling: it's useful to be visibile the whole screen for some games such as Project X, T-Racer, All Terrain Racing, Tearaway Thomas, GemX, Benefactor, etc. 
	- Joystick config: besides the standard controls,  it's possibile to use X for UP direction and B to fire (and viceversa)

2007/12/14 1.30 released
  - The processing part of "CPU(HuC6280)" and "BG drawing" were sped up. I
    think that processing lightened in some measure of a personal computer
    environment so not fast.
  - Operation speed & timing of CPU has been elaborately adjusted. At "Mugen
    Senshi Valis" of the game over scene, the problem that the screen had
    occasionally freezed was solved. At "Power Sports (World Sports
    Competition)" of the news scene, The disorder of one frame was solved.
    I think the operation timing have approached a real machine in other
    software, too.
  - "Mute PSG Channel 1"-"Mute PSG Channel 6" was added to "Volume" menu. When
    "Output WAV file", use it when you want to mute a specific sound (shot
     sound and jump sound, etc.).
  - In "File->Setting of Output WAV->Start at the Next Tune" menu function, at
    the tune to which the sampling sound is multiused, The problem that it was
    not occasionally recognized to have moved to the following tune was
    corrected.
  - The CD-ROM access processing part has been improved. When resetting it
    with "SELECT+RUN" button while accessing CD-ROM, the problem that had been
    occasionally freezed was solved.
  - Processing that decided drawing beginning line was brought close to a real
    machine. In "Mizubaku Daibouken (Liquid Kids)" , when the thunder item was
    taken, the width of the shake of the screen was brought close to a real
    machine. At "Dragon Ball Z" of the opening demo, the problem that the
    screen has fallen into disorder was solved.
  - In "Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari", when playing with a fast CD-ROM drive
    environment, the problem that ADPCM voice of the elder sister in the
    bookstore became interrupted occasionally was solved.
  - In "Nekketsu Koukou Soccer Hen", the problem that the character display
    had occasionally received in the status display part was solved.
  - Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.

V0.63 BE - FOL, GnoStiC, cmf update

- Removed alot of un-needed code, to gain usable memory (GnoStiC and cmf)
- Optimized code to gain speed (GnoStiC)
- Added alot of defines to gain speed (FOL and GnoStiC)
- Added define to allow 10.5MB of memory, not limited to 6MB anymore (FOL and cmf)
- Changed the delay and latency on sound to gain speed (FOL)
- Changed PSPUAE cpu cycle unit to 1, gave stable speed increase (FOL)
- Removed 0 from Auto Frame Skip, pointless as it slows emu down when hitting 0 (FOL)
- Removed Interpol code as it was broken since 0.60, removing this gave speed increase (GnoStiC)
- Fixed memory selection, now only valid amiga memory configs are selectable (cmf)
- Fixed Crash, where if no Backdrop was present PSPUAE would crash PSP (FOL and cmf)
- Fixed Interrupts setting in sound, as it was still produing sound (FOL and GnoStiC)
- Added AutoZoom check to PSPUAE reset command, so each reset will turn off AutoZoom. This
  stops the crash with certain configs, when AutoZoom was on. Simply Press and hold 
  L & R Trigger and SELECT after reset to turn it back on (FOL)
- Removed support for E / X-Loader and Tiff exploits as it was causing crash in
  Custom Firmware's. A seperate E / X-loader tiff version is released seperately (FOL)

openMSX 0.6.3 (2007-12-09)
--------------------------

This release contains several new features and improvements related to sound.
All sound chips are emulated at their native frequency and resampled using
advanced resampling techniques to the desired output frequency (typically
44.1 kHz). The advanced resamplers improve the sound quality a lot, because
they are free of aliasing distortions.

There are three resamplers you can choose from: "fast", which produces
approximately the same results as previous openMSX releases, "blip", which
produces better sound and is still quite fast and "hq", which produces the best
sound but takes a lot of CPU power. Since the quality difference between "blip"
and "hq" is very small and the speed difference quite large, "blip" is the
recommended resampler and the new default. Many thanks to Blargg, the author of
Blip_Buffer, not only for the code but also for explaining the principles
behind it.

More sound related improvements include stereo balance settings for each sound
chip and the ability to record individual channels of sound chips. For PSG we
even introduced some sound effects: vibrato and detune can be enabled to get a
fatter sound. Try this in Penguin Adventure!

Thanks to the blueMSX Team, we were able to quickly bring some new features:
emulation of the VLM5030, the sample chip used in the unreleased Konami game
Keyboard Master and emulation of the synthesis part of the Yamaha SFG-05 sound
module (keyboard and MIDI support is still missing).

Also on the non-sound department, the code of the blueMSX Team enabled us to
add some new features: Gouda SCSI, MEGA-SCSI, ESE RAM, ESE SCC and WAVE SCSI.
Note that the SCSI emulation is still experimental, so make sure you don't use
it to store data of which you don't have recent backups.

Last but not least: a lock-up bug was removed from the Windows version, which
could occur on dual core and hyperthreading CPU's.

New or improved emulator features:
- SDLGL-PP renderer (OpenGL 2.0) can now do RGBTriplet scaling in hardware.
- Several resampling algorithms now available: hq, blip and fast; the first two
  eliminate aliasing.
- Channels of sound chips can be individually recorded and muted.
- Sound chips now have a stereo balance setting instead of a mode (left, right,
  mono). Because of this, the <sounddevice>_mode settings have been replaced by
  <sounddevice>_balance settings.
- PSG sound effects: vibrato and detune.
  You can use the new "psg_profile" command to select known good combinations,
  or experiment wiht the PSG_vibrato_percent, PSG_vibrato_frequency,
  PSG_detune_percent and PSG_detune_frequency settings directly.
  Thanks to Wolf for the idea and his feedback on experiments.
- Several small optimizations, mostly in SDLGL-PP renderer and CPU emulation.

MSX device support:
- Partial support for Yamaha SFG-05 (only the YM2151, no keyboard and MIDI).
- Support for the VLM5030 in Konami's Keyboard Master.
- Improved accuracy in SCC emulation.
- Support for ESE devices: MEGA SCSI, ESE RAM, ESE SCC, WAVE-SCSI.
- Support for Gouda/Novaxis SCSI.
- Support for password cartridge.
- Support for the Super Lode Runner mapper.
- Real support for the Halnote mapper. Thanks to the blueMSX team.

Build system, packaging, documentation:
- Added support for building a statically linked executable on Windows.
- Added support for building a backwards compatible executable on Mac OS X
  10.5 (Leopard). Thanks to BouKiCHi.
- Added support for DESTDIR, which should help packagers.

Changes: ++ 1. Opening of compressed .gz files - in read-only mode. ++ 2. Super quick load-save states (CTRL+0..9 - quick load state, CTRL+SHIFT+0..9 - quick save it) in current states directory. ++ 3. Add Mockingboard (but not Phasor??) support, without speech, as I could take it. But Mockingboard works! You may test it in such games as Berzap! (you need to switch Mockingboard on after pressing Ctrl+C in the game), in Willy Byte in the Digital Dimensions, in Pitfall II(tm), in UltimaIV and few others. ++ 4. VideoBenchmark added! Run `linapple -b' to see benchmark running and its result in console. ++ 5. Parallel Printer file name can be set in linapple.conf (default was Printer.txt in working directory)

GCSX Based on my port of pcsx on PSP .

You need add your own DVD files sytem and GX suff .

i cant finish this port because i've no time no but i've already port all plugin .
PAD , CD , GPU SOFT VIDEO and SPU NULL For GC .
i've fixed the memory Swap too but i've never worked before on Big Endian CPU for
Converting 32Bit memory to 64Bit . so maybe you need to fixe something for the
memory check PsxMem.h and PsxMen.c , on PsxCommon.h you have already include for GC
i've already test it the Psx Hardware work . now if you have time play with this source.
for the GPU i've added the swap fonction from the pcsx for mac GPU source you need
just add you update fonction in GcDraw.c in Dobufferswap() . all loading fonction
are on misc.c .

Good luck Guys if you need any help contact me via PM on Dcemu.co.uk forum or

 --- 1.2.6 Released on 

2007.12.03 - fixed win32 rawbitmap issues, this should speed up the display
             quite a bit.  Linux rawbitmaps don't work yet, just show a blank
             white display.

2007.12.01 - fixed bugs on skinless on OS X.  Issue with wxBitmap, it needed
             to be filled in before using.  Some update to wxWidgets changed
             the default from the default being white, to an alpha background
             causing the whole display to fail to update at all since the
             data inside the wxBitmap was invisible.

           - bug report - libexpat was accidentally turned on in the OS X 
             version of LisaEm, this is not needed by LisaEm's use of 
             wxWidgets, it will be removed via  --without-expat in 
             wxWidgets' configure script.
