PS3模擬器 RPCS3 發布新版，更新如下 :

Core
– Optimized CPUID checks;
– Fixed fs::dir with constant begin/end;
– Fixed cond_variable timeout;
– Fixed "Exit RPCS3 when process finishes" command line crash;
– Improved Restart function – should now work correctly with game launchers;
– Added warning when corrupted PARAM.SFO is detected;
– Added installation for additional packages on game boot (INSDIR, PKGDIR, PS3_EXTRA);
– Removed /app_home/ dependency;
– Improved logging messages for multiple RPCS3 instances;
– Refactored logging mechanisms;
– Restored log compression;
– PKG installer update for DLC: Don't ask for overwriting, Limit cancellation capabilities;

– Implemented setting for maximum threads to be used on LLVM compilation (default: All);
– CPUTranslator: Added bitcast, trunc, zext, sext;
– Added option to manage thread placement. Makes an impact on windows when using Ryzen processors, most other CPUs should be unaffected. Linux does a better job on its own so the option is not recommended on Linux;
– Handles exceptions at game list update, fixed RPCS3 not starting when corrupted PARAM.SFO is present;
– Handles exceptions at loading patch.yml file, fixed RPCS3 not starting when bad patch.yml file is present;
– Initial cpu_translator implementation;
– Returns CELL_ENOSYS on unpresented syscalls;
– Removed PSP2 (PS Vita) code;

PPU

– Disassembler: Added db8cyc, db10cyc, db12cyc, db16cyc opcodes;
– Remove SSSE3 dependency;
– Fixed primary stack size;
– PPU LLVM: rewrote add/sub instructions: Uses new patterns for saturation instructions, Avoids ZExt/SExt completely;
– PPU LLVM: rewrote AVG instructions;

SPU
– sys_spu_thread_group_create: If priority is between 16 and 255, make sure type is not SYS_SPU_THREAD_GROUP_TYPE_EXCLUSIVE_NON_CONTEXT;
– SPU ASMJIT: Interrupt optimizations - Pigeonhole optimize for branching pattern that is used to enable and disable interrupts used in code, this should lower amount of blocks that are compiled and avoid falling out of a block. Recompiled interrupt check in some cases to stay in block instead of falling out to dispatcher;
– MFC: Fixed support for list transfer stall bit with partial support for out of order execution - also give Sync commands a size so they are properly detected by queue checks;
– Fixed interrupt jump check, also change interrupt variable to atomic bool for ease of setting/checking;
– Interpreter/Recompiler: Implemented DFCMGT;
– SPU ASMJIT: Rewritten ROTH AVX-512 implementation;
– Fixed Size and Tag clamping;
– Allow reading of the RdSRR0 channel;
– Allow writing to the WrSSR0 channel;
– Remove SSSE3 dependency;
– SPU ASMJIT: Added AVX-512 support to ROT, ROTM, ROTMA, SHL, ROTH, ROTHM, ROTMAH, SHLH, CLZ, SHUFB, CFLTU, CUFLT, BG, NOR, ROTI, CG, NAND, CGTH, CLGTH instructions;
– SPU ASMJIT: Reordered some instructions for better throughput;
– Redesigned LVSL and LVSR instructions;

– SPU ASMJIT: Rewrote ORX instruction;
– SPU ASMJIT: Minor change to ROTH instruction: Only AVX-512 path is changed (third version). This instruction is extremely rare;
– SPU ASMJIT: rewrote 128-bit shifts by bit: Six instructions changed to use xmm registers instead of gpr. ROTQBII, ROTQMBII, SHLQBII look better (shifts by imm). ROTQBI, ROTQMBI, SHLQBI changed for consistency (shifts by variable);
– Removed redundant and harming check from tag update completion type 2 condition;
– Implemented Stop Code 0x100;
– sys_spu_thread_get_exit_status: Implemented missing check, now checks CELL_ESTAT condition as well;
– Disassembler: Clamps SPU address - allows the SPU disassembler to nicely wrap around addresses instead of reporting "illegal address" on addresses outside of LS and resolves potential memory conflicts with main storage memory in the debugger;

RSX
– Optimized frame limiter;
– Improved nv406e::semaphore_release;
– Added WIP research into getting WCB (Write Color Buffers) working correctly. Should now mostly work correctly on OpenGL and correctly on Vulkan where on swizzle contexts are involved;
– Enables blitting from main memory to local (RSX) memory using hardware acceleration. A few more titles no longer need the slow WCB path for this;
– Fixed a bug where NVIDIA drivers would leak memory leak when window was minimized;
– Fixed FP (Fragment Program) to take into account data range modifiers in SRC1. Fixes negative color values getting to the tone-mapping passes in some games (e.g. Dark Souls 2);
– Do not discard depth buffer is stencil test is enabled (e.g. Vesperia);
– Enabled ZCull conditional render on Vulkan;
– Fixed D3D12 compiler crashes introduced by previous changes;
– Fixed shader cache constantly compiling new shaders in some games;
– Fixed default vertex attributes for undefined reads (e.g. Eternal Sonata, Ni no Kuni);
– Fixed OpenGL texture flickering due to broken optimization path when WCB was enabled;
– Synchronizes access to the present/graphics queue during submit. It's simpler to just use a global lock in this case since at the moment we only use one queue and contention only happens during submit. Should fix some cases of device_lost when running NVIDIA + WCB;
– Implemented depth clamp;
– Fixes for stencil surface configuration when address is contested;
– Work on depth/color address resolve when address contention happens;
– Implemented ZCull on the Vulkan render;
– Shader overlay implementation allowing all kinds of transforms and passes;
– Implemented binding color data for depth access for example using a RGBA->depth casting pass;
– Fixed face winding on OpenGL;
– Fragment program decompiler fixes for pack/unpack with optional register gathering implemented;
– Fixed potential crash in image_in when using CPU blit, or when unable to GPU scale the texture;
– Avoids unprotecting memory unless writing is almost guaranteed to be near immediate. Should lower chances of race conditions on sections leading to corruption, but this is not a final fix. Should greatly reduce chances of encountering;
– Fix for framebuffer setup: Ignore stencil flag if current depth format does not support stencil operation;
– Fixed depth clipping: Should now correctly scale/offset z for viewport, which may help in random clipping issues. tested game doesn't work on master without hacks (e.g. Vancouver 2010) but this fixes graphics display in it;
– Fixed image_in arg decoding / swizzle: Fixes x/y decoding, fixes some psl1ght blitting samples. After seeing countless weird values games seem to give for swizzle size, it seems the RSX just ignores the values, fixes cpu blit in age of booty;
– Fixed invalid framebuffer crash and shader compile on D3D12;
– Updated Vulkan dependencies: solves an issue where broken Windows drivers wouldn't register the ICD key and break the only detection method present on older Vulkan versions;
– Added detection for Vulkan Xlib/Wayland surface support at runtime (Linux/BSD);
– Several (many!) texture caches fixes;
– Remove SSSE3 dependency;
– Track last working state and reset to it if RSX starts to desync. This is especially useful when running Vulkan since the renderer will easily outpace the rest of the system when merely recording draw commands;
– Ignore empty index buffer sets. Mark empty/invalid IB sets as having 0 element counts;
– Implement deferred swizzle remaps for twice-remapped resources;
– Fix blit engine operations on RGB565;
– Add a timeout on nv406e::semaphore_acquire. Requires further investigation to why some semaphore addresses always lock up;
– Fix WCB causing hanging due to incorrect memory range approximation
– Properly synchronize FIFO ctrl updates. Can improve stability in some cases. The issue still happens if the SPUs lag too far behind RSX;
– Implement variable point size;
– Implement FP instructions BEM, TEXBEM, TXPBEM (untested, rarely used);
– Fix for LG2 FP instruction processing invalid values;
– Framebuffer setup fixes to avoid lost draw calls;
– Code style fixes;
– Fixed alphakill;
– Fixed color swizzle ordering for new blit destination surfaces;
– Tweak to RSX hang detection;
– Tweaks to sampler fallback paths for Vulkan;
– Fixed regression with texture format G8B8;
– Fixed typo in emulated primitive restart, fixing graphics with some AMD cards;
– Fixed emulator hang that could happen when RSX thread crashes/throws/exits, making sure the event queue is cleared and disabled and the VBlank thread is shut down;
– Added setting to disable shader preloading, useful for debugging/testing purposes;
– Added setting to force FIFO present mode option (workaround for recent MESA drivers);
– Added setting to force Force primitive restart flag (should also work on MESA drivers);
– Vulkan: Flush command queue on access violation event before attempting to touch texture cache in the event of access violations. This makes the device internal state consistent before texture operations. Fixes VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST in some cases when WCB is in use;
– Fixed Z clipping using selective Z clamping;
– Texture cache (blit engine) fix – Remove a conditional guess that has been properly reverse-engineered (it has been proven that in offsets are in x16 fixed point);
– OpenGL: Use correct target for type when creating new textures. They are not always 2D;
– OpenGL: Track stale cache entries for deleted textures. Avoids invalid texture getting bound to the pipeline when WCB is enabled;
– Vulkan: Implement texture barrier for framebuffer feedback situations if strict mode is disabled. Strict mode bypasses all of this and just makes a duplicate copy which is the safest way to avoid the memory access hazard;
– RSX: Improve framebuffer setup code. If pitch is 64, check the log2 dimension bits instead to determine size;;
– Fixed B8 format render target swizzling;
– Partial fix for extended clamp range draws; Try to preserve z information for draws outside the [0,1] range if the clip extents allow it. Range compression for [0,1] draws is disabled as it interferes with regular draw ops in a negative way, so this workaround will result in Z fighting on the near and far plane when extended range is used;
– Implemented decoding a shuffle flag in the low bits of the texture remap vector. Seems to affect only some formats;
– Texture format fixes: now rpcs3 almost passes all the texture formats test from autotests;
– Removes a workaround in texture cache as it seems to not be required with texture formats fixed. There are almost no test cases for this but I expect no regressions;
– OpenGL performance optimizations: Treats entire attribute buffer as a fixed heap addressed with index offsets instead of the "sliding window" approach that incurred overhead setting up the texture buffers. This was very expensive on NVIDIA drivers leading to very poor OpenGL performance on NVIDIA cards;
– Minor fixes for overlays: Do not assume swap queue is in a well defined state since a flip can be requested externally. Also avoids processing unsupported glyphs in font handlers;
– Implements swap control on Linux when using OpenGL;
– Fixed the epsilon value that was replaced with decimal to fix NVIDIA issues back to the old value. It has to be very very small, 1.E-5 is not small enough, but 1.E-10 works well enough;
– Fixed a race condition during startup using qt dialogs;
– Clean up shaders by removing as much clutter as possible and only compiling subroutines actually used by the program. Makes decompiled SPIR-V easier to read and should hopefully mean less work for the drivers as well.
– Reuse sampler objects (Vulkan) to avoid too many create/delete cycles. Wont do much for performance but its the right thing to do and it makes debugging alot easier;
– Removes subpass dependencies on Vulkan. They have a very high cost on AMD GPUs especially older GCN1 and maybe GCN2 cards and can easily drop throughput by 80%+ (Tested on R9 270x);
– Framebuffer setup improvements: Improves fast paths in framebuffer setup code and allows resource reuse when using OpenGL instead of constantly recreating new resources and binding;
– OpenGL: Do not rely on OpenGL null texture; instead, provide our own black null texture to make reads from non-existent textures return (0, 0, 0, 1);
– Implemented FBO flush-always when WCB is enabled. This is for games that read back the currently bound render target. Fixes some missing graphics in some games especially when using the blit debugger (force_cpu_blit);
– Vulkan API compliance fixes;
– Synchronize blit engine resources with cell to avoid data loss. A typical scenario would be where an image is rendered on RSX pixel pipeline to render target A which is copied to location B using blit engine. Cell then reads back the pixels at B to do some image processing on SPU and re-uploads the data from another location C. Without synchronizing reads and writes, data at B would not exist from Cell's point of view. Fixes some problems in some games like Journey.
– Vulkan: Minor memory management fixes. Avoids running out of memory during a draw call;
– FP: Explicitly gather or discard writes to output if none is defined. While the GL spec makes this work correctly, undefined output in SPIR-V updated the render target with blue pixels;
– texture cache: Fixed component ordering on depth surfaces – all components should always read R (e.g. solves TOCS/TOCS2 blur issue);
– Fixed a bug in multidraw implementation and range splitting of disjoint draw calls (e.g. solves flickering in R&C games);
– Improved workaround for AMD Vulkan driver where u16 index buffers would mistakenly break primitive restart due to fetching of the restart index T(-1), likely due to broken type identification;
– General minor optimizations all round;
– Optimize texture readback performance by tracking flushable targets and performing transfers ahead of time;
– Implemented base swapchain type to remove dependency on WSI providers being present. This is the case when attempting to run Vulkan from a secondary GPU whilst the primary GPU is an NVIDIA one on Linux. Two additional display providers other than the WSI one are also provided, one for WIN32 and another for X11 to cover the common cases. This allows use of a secondary GPU on Linux which was a big problem for graphics development on Linux. Note that while mesa drivers can present data from secondary GPUs, proprietary drivers do not, and often times the user will have the NVIDIA GPU as primary to avoid problems with X. Overhead of using the native software fallbacks is currently about 4ms at 720p, 7ms at 1080p (~250FPS max at 720p, ~125FPS max at 1080p). While this change in itself may not mean much to most users, the possibilities with display out are now infinite. Additional swapchain providers can be added to do cool things like writing images to file, injecting custom postfx, encoding image output to video and streaming over a network, etc, etc;

Mednafen 1.21.0-UNSTABLE

多機種模擬器 Mednafen 發布新版，更新如下 :

Notable changes since 0.9.48:

• Migrated to SDL2(building from source requires 2.0.5+).
• An attempt to run an instance of Mednafen while another instance is already running with the same base directory is now blocked during startup, via a lock file; note that this check occurs after stdout and stderr are potentially redirected to stdout.txt and stderr.txt on Windows.
• Removed the "overlay" video driver.
• Changed the default value of setting "video.driver" from "opengl" to "default", removed the old "0" and "1" backwards-compatibility value aliases, renamed the "sdl" driver to "softfb"(without backwards-compat aliases), and made it so the setting's value will be reset to "default" after automatically importing settings from "mednafen-09x.cfg".
• Added setting "video.fs.display".
• Added settings "fps.autoenable", "fps.position", "fps.scale", "fps.font", "fps.textcolor", and "fps.bgcolor".
• Added support for pasting text into the cheat and netplay consoles.
• On Windows, Mednafen will now output text to a console if it's started from a console(e.g. cmd.exe or Cygwin), and if not, write to stdout.txt and stderr.txt like before.
• On Windows, error messages during startup will now be displayed in a popup message box.
• On Windows, Mednafen now uses Unicode variants of CRT and Win32 functions; this may require the user to update path settings and convert their CUE sheets to UTF-8 if filenames use exotic(e.g. not directly typable on a standard US-layout keyboard) characters.
• For key bindings relating to the debugger and cheat management interface, the Right ALT key modifier will no longer be respected(only the Left ALT has any effect now), for internationalization reasons.
• Configuration file is now named "mednafen.cfg" again, instead of "mednafen-09x.cfg"; if "mednafen.cfg" doesn't exist or is for an old version(earlier than 0.9.0) of Mednafen, the settings will be loaded from "mednafen-09x.cfg" on startup, but still saved to "mednafen.cfg" on exit.
• Reworked the input mapping setting format to be more human-readable(and editable). Details are in the documentation, in the "Advanced Usage" section. Old input mappings will be translated internally, except for keyboard mappings, due to incompatibilities between how SDL 1.2 and 2 handle keyboards.
• Added support for mapping joystick axes and buttons, mouse buttons, and keyboard keys to emulated mouse device relative motion for testing purposes(via manually editing the configuration file, as the in-emulator configuration process currently won't create such mappings).
• Added support for digital button input mappings that mix AND, ANDNOT, and OR-style operations together(previously it was either just AND or OR); refer to the documentation for more details. Note that the in-emulator configuration process won't create complex mappings that mix different boolean operations, but you can map combinations using simpler logic in-emulator, and then edit the configuration file to adjust the boolean operations used.
• Altered calculations involving *.xscale(fs)/*.yscale(fs) settings to be more predictable given floating point nuances; any user using non-integer scaling values for these settings may need to adjust them to get the same result as in previous versions of Mednafen, however.
• Fixed broken cheat file saving on MS Windows.
• PCE_FAST: Fixed fubared mouse emulation.
• PC-FX: Fixed integer overflows that caused fatal division by zero when Mednafen's cheat functionality was used(a regression introduced around 0.9.39).
• SS: Fixed a logic error in the BIOS sanity check code that caused it to throw a less helpful error message than intended in certain circumstances, and made the error messages related to BIOS file misconfiguration more verbose(and hopefully more helpful...).
• SS: Fixed at least one background layer graphical glitch in "Radiant Silvergun"(at the start of stage 2C).
• SS: Fixed the graphical glitch near the end of the intro in "Snatcher".
• SS: Added Japanese keyboard(HSS-0129) emulation.

RetroArch 1.7.1

多平台多機種模擬器 RetroArch 發布新版，更新如下 :

– 3DS: Now correctly reports amount of CPU cores.
– 3DS: Frontend rating is now correctly implemented for both New 3DS/2DS and Old 3DS/2DS.
– 3DS: Initial networking support, HTTP requests won’t work yet.
– 3DS: Now reports memory and battery state.
– AUDIO: Added ‘Audio Resampler Quality’ setting to Audio Settings. Setting this higher will increase sound quality at the expense of sound latency and/or performance. Setting this value lower will improve sound latency/performance at the expense of sound quality. Only has an effect if the Sinc resampler is used, and you have to restart the game for changes to take effect.
– CHEEVOS: Fix unofficial achievements not being loaded.
– CHEEVOS: Show savestate menu entries when no achievements are found even if hardcore mode is enabled.
– CHEEVOS: Support Neo Geo Pocket.
– COMMON: Bugfix for issue related to ‘Windows mouse pointer visible when running MESS or MAME cores’.
– COMMON: Fix bug ‘Last item in a Playlist is ignored’.
– COMMON: New LED API. Driver implemented for Raspberry Pi, proof of concept implemented for core MAME 2003.
– COMMON: Add quick menu option to watch shader files for changes and recompile them automatically (Linux only for now).
– D3D8: Direct3D 8 can now work on systems that have Direct3D 8 installed.
– D3D9: Add menu support for MaterialUI/XMB.
– D3D10: Initial video driver implementation.
– D3D11: Initial video driver implementation.
– D3D11: SPIRV-Cross/slang shader support for D3D11.
– D3D12: Initial video driver implementation.
– DINPUT: don’t reinitialize input driver on network events / media insertion / network drive connection
– INPUT: show friendly names when available under input binds and system information
– INPUT: show the config name when available under system information

– GUI/XMB: Allow changing menu scale to 200%.
– GUI/XMB: Works now with D3D8, D3D9 Cg, D3D11 and D3D12 drivers. Menu shader effects currently don’t work on D3D8/D3D9 Cg.
– HAIKU: Restored port.
– KEYMAPPER: prevent a condition that caused input_menu_toggle to stop working when a RETRO_DEVICE_KEYBOARD type device is enabled

– QB: Added –datarootdir.
– QB: Added –bindir and –mandir and deprecated –with-bin_dir and –with-man_dir.
– QB: Added –docdir.
– SHADERS: Allow saving of shader presets based on the parent directory (Saving one for */foo/bar/mario.sfc* would result in *shaders/presets/corename/bar.ext*). We decided it’s safer to still isolate the presets to a single core because different cores may treat video output differently.
– SHADERS: Don’t save the path to the current preset to the main config. This was causing weird behavior, instead it will try to load *currentconfig.ext* and it will save a preset with that name when select *apply shader preset*. The resulting shader will restore properly after restarting and even after core/parent/game specific presets are loaded
– SOLARIS: Initial port.
– SWITCH: Initial Nintendo Switch port, based on libtransistor SDK.
– PS3: Enable Cheevos.
