v0.32.0

Changes from v0.31.0

I forget to bump the version number in the Makefile before release, so the title bar will say "v0.32.0 pre-release". I'm not changing it. The next version will be released soon enough.

  • Improvements
  • Artefact free rendering
    • The old method of chaining GLSL shaders added visible artefacts on screen in some instances. This has been fixed
  • ROM Select Window
    • Mouse wheel works correctly in ROM Select window when in playmode
    • Improved responsiveness
  • Added mappers for prototype ROMs:
    • WF8 (Smurf and Zaxxon prototypes)
    • JANE (Tarzan prototype)
  • Magnify window/tooltip uses current TV colours
  • Global cycle regulator for ARM
  • Comparison mode includes a comparision of the two audio streams
  • Regression database now keeps a list of failed tests
    • LIST and REDUX both now accept keys to work on (as opposed to working on all keys)
    • RUN, LIST and REDUX can use FAILS as a key to limit action to previously failed tests
      • eg gopher2600 regress list fails
    • REDUX now has a -dryrun option
  • MEMUSAGE PROFILE command
    • Also triggered on ctrl+alt+m
    • Memory usage in FPS overlay (optional)
  • Compile time option to include Statsviz monitoring
  • Television Improvements
  • Screen size dimensions fixed at a ratio of 4:3
    • Generated image will always be squeezed into the 4:3 aperture
  • Improved VSYNC and synchronisation options
  • Minimum refresh rate for TV reduced to 45Hz
    • The previous higher rate prevented some PAL ROMs from ever achieving synchronisation
    • This will affect any ROMs you may have in the regression database. Use regression REDUX to rebuild database
  • Corrected horizontal scan rate values. Used to caculate refresh rate
    • This affects PAM and SECAM. NTSC and PAL-M were already correct
  • Other Changes
  • "Motion" screenshots now called "Flicker"
    • Better indication of the conditions when the method is appropriate
    • "Composite" and "Single" methods unchanged
  • PAL-M always referred to as PAL-M (and not PALM)
  • added options -playbackIgnoreDigest and -recordFilename to RUN mode
  • Bug Fixes
  • ARM Cycle Counting was incorrect in v0.30.0
    • Memory latency was calculated incorrectly
  • Screen would sometimes not be updated in playmode if refresh rate of emulated TV was higher than the monitor
  • Rewind for binary Supercharger files was incorrect
    • Caused application to deadlock if ROM was rewound towards the very start of execution
