- added methods to CModel3 to access sound board and drive board
- added methods to CSoundBoard to access 68K and DSB (if attached)
- added methods to CDSB1 & CDSB2 to access Z80 & 68K respectively
- small code tweak in DriveBoard.cpp
- comment tweaks in Model3.h & Model3.cpp
- Changed gear shifting behavior: neutral gear has its own button now.
- Removed SUPERMODEL_SOUND.
- DirectInput is the default input system for Windows now.
- Multi-threading is on by default, replaced -multi-threaded w/ -no-threads.
- Made crosshairs larger and more visible.
- Added Nik to co-author list and began updating file copyright notices.
- Fixed Virtua Striker 2 input names (player 2 inputs end with the number 2 instead of 1).
- Added documentation to a Docs/ subdirectory.
- Exported all default input configurations to Supermodel.ini and added that to the repository. Internally, Supermodel initializes all controls to "NONE" now.
- added notification message if drive board is disabled when loading incompatible save state
- removed some superflous print statements, but have kept in printing out of force feedback commands for now (which have also been made more visual)
- made sure that feedback state is reset in SendStopAll()
- audio buffer is now kept as full as possible with new audio buffering method rather than just half full like before (this is okay now that buffer overruns have been eliminated)
- altered minimum size of audio buffer so that audio still works with a zero latency setting (obviously there will still be some latency)
- fixed bug in SendConstantForce which was sending incorrect values at times
- removed friction effect for now, until can determine its exact command seq
- added checking of compatibility of saved state and temporary disabling of drive board if not compatible
- Added volume controls to UI.
- Renamed "Sega Rally Controls" to "Sega Rally/Dirt Devils Controls" (even though Dirt Devils has no hand brake).
- Hooked up gear shifting and view change for Dirt Devils.
- Removed debug printf()'s from DSB.cpp.
- Removed debug printf() from Real3D.cpp.
- Disabled assertions in SCSPDSP.cpp.
- Converted all error messages in Amp library to Supermodel format.
- Added parameters for DirectInput and XInput force feedback effects (although still need to add code to persist them in configuration file)
- Added extra friction feedback effect and tidied up existing effects
- Fixed an MPEG related crash when loading save states. If usingLoopStart is 0, it is important not to call MPEG_SetLoop()!
- -input-system is working again.
- Changed the format of some messages here and there.
- Moved Logger.h to OSD/, cleaned up comments.
- Command line and config file parsing have been rewritten.
- Began replacing C standard library headers with C++ versions (eg. stdio.h -> cstdio). I think I got most of them, but not all.
- INI file changes: added support for opening and creating files, for a default section alias, and for sections appearing multiple times in the section list (may prevent some bugs).
- CSoundBoard is not derived from CBus.
- Optimized sound board memory handlers (now using switch statements).
- Added DSB emulation (based on R. Belmont's M1 source code).
- Improved ROM loading: only unique ROMs (those not shared amongst games) are used to identify games. The ROM loader will no longer get confused as easily.
- General cleanup here and there, removed unused Render.h file.
- Model LUT now capable of differentiating between texture offset states (linked list of different texture offsets for each model address).
- Removed texOffset uniform attribute from vertex shader -- no longer needed.
- Moved CPU debugger for Turbo68K into separate class CTurbo68KDebug and made C68KDebug base class for later addition of Musashi core
- Fixed typos in ConsoleDebugger
- Added object interface CThread for OSD threading and synchronization, together with SDL implementation
- Added multi-threading to CModel3 so that separate CPUs (PPC of main board, 68K of sound board and Z80 of drive board) can be run in separate threads if requested to improve performance on multi-core PCs
- Added -multi-threaded command line option (default is to run single-threaded still)
- Implemented bank switching for sample ROMs. It is probably incorrect because there is still 2MB of unaccounted-for space.
- Added a few important TO-DO notes.
- Added PPC/68K communication and automatically generated sound IRQs. Sound is now mostly working :)
- Increased SCSP MIDI buffer length to 128 to simulate a large FIFO for PPC->68K commands.
- Added sound ROMs to those games which have 8 MB of sample ROMs.
- Added a 68K interface, CPU/68K/M68K.*.
- Moved Turbo68K source files to CPU/68K/Turbo68K. It is no longer used but is being retained in the source tree for now. The LSR instruction has not been fixed in this update.
- Changed sound board code to use the new 68K interface (and hence, Musashi).
- Changed version string from 0.2-WIP to 0.2a-WIP. This is still an alpha version.
- Above changes have broken the 68K debugger.
