SameBoy 0.13

GB / GBC模擬器 SameBoy 發布新版，更新如下 :

New/Improved Features

• When emulating a Game Boy, you can now select out of 4 different palettes
• New Monochrome LCD scaling filter
• It is now possible to display Super Game Boy, or a built-in default border, even when emulating different models
• Improvements to the built-in boot ROMs; the DMG boot ROM has a new animation, and the CGB boot ROM now features an anti-aliased logo
• Gamma correction added to the CRT scaling filter
• Add “Reduce Contrast” as an additional color correction mode
• Optional more accurate frame blending mode, emulating the scanline-like appearance of actual Game Boy displays
• The next debugger command now skips over HALT
• The registers debugger command now display IME as well
• Added volume control to the SDL frontend
• The SDL frontend will now load and save “prefs.bin” relative to the binary if such file exists
• The sidebar in the Cocoa debugger is now resizable and collapsable
• The Cocoa frontend now supports cheats
• Added support to ISX files, used by the official toolchain
• Rewritten and improved controller support in Cocoa, featuring rumble, player LEDs, and analog controls for turbo and slow motion. Controller support:
  • GameCube adapters (Both official and PC adapters): Full support, including automatic mappings, multiplayer, analog controls, and rumble
    • Unofficial adapters in PC mode support analog rumble, as opposed to PWM binary rumble; the use of PC mode is recommended
  • Generic “Twin USB” DualShock 2 PC adapter: Automatic mapping, multiplayer support
  • Switch Pro Controller: Full support, including automatic mappings, rumble, and player LEDs; via both USB and Bluetooth
  • DualShock 3: Full support, including automatic mappings, rumble, player LEDs, and analog controls; via both USB and Bluetooth
    • Some Macs seem to be unable to communicate LED and rumble information to DualShock 3 controllers; the use of USB for this controller is recommended
  • Generic controllers: Basic functionality, may need to be manually remapped in settings
  • Support for more controllers will come in future releases
• Optionally add rumble support to all games, even those without a Rumble Pak, in all frontends
  • SDL rumble support varies between operating systems and SDL versions
• The debugger now allows more than one symbol at the same address
• Added the softbreak debugger command to enable/disable software breakpoints (ld b, b)
• The SDL debugger now always outputs “>” when it’s waiting for an input
• The SDL debugger allows the use of the magic binary sequence "\x03\x0a" to break the debugger from stdin in async-capable platforms

Accuracy Improvements/Fixes

• Fixed a regression bug that made the first frame blank instead of repeated on the Game Boy Color
• Fixed an APU sequencer edge case
• Fixed a bug affecting HDMA timing
• Color correction is now more accurate
• Correct emulation of the OPRI register
• More accurate emulation of STOP mode
• More accurate emulation of LCDC write conflicts; although individual units may behave differently
• Emulation of cases where PPU object fetched are aborted in the middle
• Correct emulation of changing object height during fetch
• More accurate emulation of the PPU fetcher’s timings
• Accurate emulation of SCX’s upper 5 bits changing mid-line
• Rewritten window implementation, which is much more accurate now, including the various timing scenarios
• More accurate emulation of background FIFO push timings
• Emulate some of the cases where the PPU and LCD desync
• Accurate emulation of tilemap advance timings
• Implement a missing SGB command (ATTR_CHR)
• More accurate MBC2 emulation
• More accurate MBC3 emulation and proper MBC30 support
• Correct emulation of PCM12 and PCM34 reads when emulating CGB-C
• Improved HuC-1 emulation
• HuC-3 emulation, including RTC and alarm clock emulation
  • Alarm clock emulation is only supported in the Cocoa frontend
• Partial emulation of glitched VRAM reads that happen right after mode 3

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug with scrolling menus in the SDL frontend when emulating a Super Game Boy
• Fixed cases where the Cocoa frontend froze
• Fixed a bug where an incorrect minimum window size was enforced on the Cocoa frontend
• Assignments to 16-bit expression in the debugger is now working correctly
• Fixed operator priorities in the debugger
• Fixed a debugger parsing bug
• Fixed compatibility with older macOS versions in the Cocoa version, restoring support for 10.9 (Mavericks) and newer

Misc Internal Changes

• Added per-commit automatic GitHub builds, with basic sanity tests
• When building the SDL frontend on macOS, the Brew version of SDL2 is used
• Fixed various compilation errors with GCC
• Make the libretro frontend compile without warnings
• HuC-1 and HuC-3 IR are emulated now, but this is not currently supported in any frontend
