atari++ 1.60

News via http://emu-russia.net/en/

Atari 400, 800, 400XL, 800XL, 130XE and Atari 5200 emulator has been updated recently. Changes:
- Redesigned parts of the pokey emulation. The new version offers the option to be cycle-precise, i.e. pokey interrupts (POTs and timers) arrive now at the cycle. This improves the audio output for the "Electronic Speach Systems of Berkeley" considerably. (Kennedy Approach and others)
- Redesigned parts of the audio interfaces. The smarter audio output count now clock cycles and generate output for exactly the number of clocks passed. The output frequency still requires dynamic adjustment since the CPU load of the host system is never precisely in sync with the emulated clock.
- The control mechanism to bring the emulated clock and the system clock in sync has been improved, it is now a PID type of control loop that gets faster in sync than the previous versions.
- The improved audio output is available currently only for the ALSA and DirectX audio output chains. Oss/OssHQ and SDL remain unaltered. There is, however, little reason to fall back to the less precise chains. Prefer ALSA on Linux and DirectX on Windows.
- The parser for the keypad stick emulation was still buggy (oh bummer!) and was finally fixed. "Space" and " " can now both be used.
- The windows emulation of the readdir() primtives still had a bug and could crash the emulator on accessing a network volume. Fixed.

Ootake 2.54

News via http://emu-russia.net/en/

PCEngine/Turbo Grafx 16/PCE CD/TG16 CD6 emulator for Windows have been updated recently. Changes:
- V-Sync (function to redraw screen smoothly) processing has been improved. The tempo of a built-in sound source (carve of a detailed rhythm) is steady, and it has approached a real machine. And, when the window of Ootake was brought to the upper part of the screen in some personal computers, the bug of V-Sync was solved.
- The message display processing has been improved. The overall operation lightened in some measure. And, when the desktop is used by a classic style with WindowsXP, the bug that the label of the window blinked (generated from v2.50) was corrected.
- The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine. In "Final Lap Twin", when the hero enters the course in the field, the problem that the screen occasionally fell into disorder by one frame (generated from v2.07) was solved. In the stage 3 of "Dragon Saber", when the wall moves, the problem that the display of one line falls into disorder was solved. I think that the timing approached a real machine in other games, too.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.

DS2x86 0.09 released!

News via http://dsx86.patrickaalto.com/DSblog.html

A new release of the Dos Emulator for the Nintendo DS

This version has the following improvements:

Implemented screen scaling for all common graphics modes.
Fixed the DOS and BIOS date/time functions to return proper Real Time Clock values. This might fix some hanging games.
Fixed EGA Read Mode 1 handling (fixes EGATrek graphical issues).
Fixed EGA Read Mask initial value (fixes Ultima V hanging).
Added a warning message for games that need a Floating Point Unit.
Screen copies are saved to incrementally numbered files SCR00.BMP..SCR99.BMP. Previously they were always saved to SCR.BMP file.

Below are some examples for EGA screen scaling. Silpheed uses 640x200 mode, and it has used smooth scaling in DSx86 as well. EGATrek uses the highest resolution available on EGA displays, 640x350. Since the vertical resolution is not easily scalable to 192 vertical rows, I instead scale it 2:1 to 175 vertical rows. Thus, there are some black rows on the bottom of the screen. The mode used by Mahjong Fantasia (640x400) is not a proper graphics mode that the EGA/VGA BIOS support, instead the game initially switches to 640x200 mode, and then doubles the vertical resolution by directly accessing the EGA card registers. Finally, A-Train is an example of the VGA high resolution 640x480 mode.

I also debugged the Windows 3.00a crashing problem, but could not yet solve that issue. I worked also a little bit on Windows 3.1 support, which complained about there not being enough XMS memory. I found and fixed this problem, but it is using some new protected mode opcodes and features that I did not have time to code for this version, so it will crash with unsupported opcode errors. I'll see if I can make it run better in the next version. Making Windows 3.1 run should also help me in locating the problem in Windows 3.00a.

There are also other misbehaving games on my TODO list, and I'll continue debugging these and fixing the problems. Thanks again for all of you who have tested the games and sent me debug logs and other information to help me in fixing the problems in DS2x86!

DS2x86 0.08 and DSx86 0.32 released!

News via http://dsx86.patrickaalto.com/DSblog.html

A new release of the Dos Emulator for the Nintendo DS

DS2x86 0.08 release notes
This version has a lot of previously missing opcodes implemented, so a few more games might run again. I did not have time to add support for new INT calls or I/O ports into this version, so those errors will still happen in the games that previously had these errors. I hope to be able to handle these in the upcoming versions.

I have also debugged some ill-behaving games, but sadly that has been mostly frustrating work with no clear improvements in the behaviour. I have collected a lot of information and have been able to close in on the actual problems, but have not yet been able to solve them yet.

After spending many days with various problems in the games, and getting frustrated, I decided to see if I could get Windows 3.00a to run in Standard Mode also in DS2x86. This basically meant porting the 16-bit protected mode features I had coded into the original DSx86 to DS2x86. This work progressed better, so that this version can run Windows 3.00a in both Real and Standard mode. The Enhanced mode would need support for virtual memory, which is not coded in yet, so that mode does not work.


The problem in Windows 3.00a that I have been fighting with today was that opening some programs, like Paintbrush, gave an error "File PBRUSH.DLL not found" or similar. I checked the Windows directory and the file does exist, and I even checked my SD card for errors, but still I got that error. Next I checked my emulated DOS System File Table contents, which has room for 64 entries, but there were only 16 entries used so that was not the cause. I debugged my DOS file routines, and made sure the directory and file name are exactly correct, and then found out that it was the DS2 SDK fopen() function that returned NULL for the file. Finally it then occurred to me to check the the SDK file system functions (which luckily come with source) to see what the file table size is there, and it had only 16 entries! So, I doubled the size to 32 entries, and now Windows 3.00a seems to run. I think I could increase the table to 64, to match my emulated DOS file table, but I'll do that later when I have more time to test that everything still works.

DSx86 0.32 release notes
This DSx86 version has only one minor fix, as I have been focusing on DS2x86 during this two-week period. I implemented the direct file reading into EGA VRAM, which is used by games like Rockford and Heimdall.

 

zuNESter (NES emulator for Zune HD)

News via http://www.zuneboards.com/forums/download-openzdk-applications/59018-zunester-nes-emulator-zune-hd.html

zuNESter is a port of PocketNester 0.7a. It is highly optimized and should be able to run any NES ROM at a full 60 frames per second. It supports 9 save states per ROM. Unfortunately, the sound currently does not work at all. Hopefully that will change in the future. The controls are obvious from the overlay, except that to access the menu while playing a game in portrait mode, you have to touch where the game is displaying (upper part of the screen).

Also, be sure to add your own NES ROMs to the ROMs folder before deploying.

Note: Nothing has yet changed since the latest release candidate. The source code will be added soon.

Update:
-Landscape mode (Thanks to Nick for the theme.)
-ROMs are now searched for in /flash2/zuNESter/ROMs as well. (Put them there with Liberate or the zuNESter File Deployer.)
-Moved saves to /flash2/zuNESter/Saves and now saves according to the entire file name.
-Invisible quick load button in top-left corner and invisible quick save button in top-right corner.

DCEmu Hacked

Hi all, along with posting emulation news here i also have my own website DCEmu which is a website focusing on Homebrew, Gaming and Console Hardware News etc.

Last week the site was hacked on monday, the hackers or script kids for want of a better word redirected my site to theirs, luckily it was only a redirect and no damage. Bluecrab one of my admin fixed that.

However on tuesday another bunch of script kids not only redirected the site but deleted half the files on the server, i pray Martin has a decent and recent back up of the site, time will tell.

For now because DCEmu is down the site is being forwarded to Gaming and Gadgets.Com and im posting all my news there until the return of DCEmu.

Now most importantly to all fellow webmasters out there and it seems especially those using Vbulletin 4, please make sure you patch the recent exploit that these hackers breached.

Thanks for your time
