XaviX2 圖形、時序與操控

• 改善多邊形與精靈圖像的深度排序，讓角色、戰鬥文字與攻擊特效依照修正後的深度資料合成。
• 修正透明調色盤的顏色與透明度解讀，以及預乘透明度的混色方式，改善水面、天空霧化、雲層與半透明特效。
• 改善高解析度 3D 模式下，透明前景與底層 3D 畫面的合成，減少光環橫跨地形時的接縫。
• 加入精靈濾波與透明度內插，使放大縮小後的角色邊緣更自然；依遊戲設定處理色彩抖動，改善天空漸層。
• 修正 Take-copter 的 GPU 畫面合併與淡出順序，使雲層、角色和背景一起淡出；改善水面與天空交界。
• 修正不同顯示模式的畫面更新時序，避免啟動畫面或選單使動畫、音效節奏異常。
• Take-copter 加入專用頭部傾斜操控，可使用鍵盤、滑鼠、PS／相容搖桿或 Wii 指向輸入。
  提供前後左右、直立與加速動作的設定，並隱藏不適用於頭部傾斜的瞄準點。
• Naruto、Blue Dragon、Doraemon Taikan Take-copter 標示為「完整可玩」。
  部分 XaviX2 圖形、音效包絡／濾波與原始配件手勢精度仍持續改善。

七龍珠 Z2

• 修正關閉模擬器後遊戲內建存檔遺失；故事進度現在會獨立保存到磁碟。
• F7 讀取即時存檔時保留目前的遊戲內建存檔，避免把已保存的進度倒退。
• 修正選單反光點持續放在左右箭頭時，畫面下半部跟著閃爍的問題。
• 改善角色與特效深度合成；七龍珠系列仍標示為「可玩（有已知問題）」，並未宣稱所有特效問題皆已排除。

顯示與啟動參數

• -f：直接以無邊框全螢幕啟動。
• -w1、-w2、-w3、-w4：指定 1～4 倍視窗。
• -s：拉伸至 4:3；不加 -s 使用原始 1:1 像素比例。
• 可直接指定 ROM ZIP，支援含空白的路徑（請加雙引號）；多個顯示模式以最後一個為準。
• 操控沿用執行檔旁的 XaviXEmu.ini，啟動參數不覆寫原本的操控與視窗倍數設定。
• 從遊戲列表啟動時重新套用保存的視窗倍數。
• XaviX2 使用固定 320×240 顯示基準計算視窗倍數，避免 Take-copter 切換到 640×480 時視窗再次放大。
• 修正小視窗選單換行占用遊戲區域的問題，維持正確的遊戲顯示尺寸。
• 「關於」精簡為 XaviX、XaviX2000 與 XaviX2 模擬器的介紹；版本更新為 0.4.1。

English release details

This release focuses on substantially improved XaviX2 support.

• Correct both Super Dash Ball sticks' horizontal direction; add Golf's
  configurable Swing/Space action; improve independent Hamtaro circus glove
  controls. Correct TV-PC mouse coordinates and require mouse/keyboard input
  for Doraemon, Hello Kitty and Tottoko Hamtaro. Update the tested games'
  playability classifications.

• Include Traditional Chinese setup, controls, all 40 ZIP/title mappings,
  and comprehensive 0.4.1 release notes. Distribute the compiled binary and
  documentation without publishing the 0.4.1 source code.

• Keep the requested game viewport size when narrow windows wrap the menu.

• Add -f fullscreen, -w1 through -w4 window scaling, and -s 4:3
  stretch launch options with a direct ROM ZIP path. Without -s, use the
  original pixel aspect ratio. Preserve existing controller profiles and
  avoid saving temporary launch display overrides to the INI.

• Simplify About to identify XaviXEmu as an emulator for XaviX, XaviX2000,
  and XaviX2. Update the application/file version to 0.4.1 and list all 40
  recognized ZIP filenames with their full titles and current library status
  in the README.

• Keep XaviX2 window zoom on a stable 320x240 display canvas across video
  modes and 3D enhancement. Take-copter's 4x window is 1280x960 instead of
  doubling to 2560x1920 when its 640x480 startup screen is active.

• Mark Choro-Q Byun Byun Racer, Disney Princess, Doraemon Taikan Take-copter,
  Ham-chans: Ham Ham Challenge and IDATEN Jump as fully playable following
  the maintainer's reports.

• Persist Dragon Ball Z2's 1024-byte game EEPROM separately from F5/F7
  snapshots. In-game story saves now survive closing and restarting the
  emulator; F7 retains the current durable EEPROM instead of rewinding it.

• Fix Dragon Ball Z2's lower-panel color flashes while holding a menu arrow.
  Empty polygon lists now use the same deferred sprite submission and
  completed-frame protection as mixed 3D/2D scenes, keeping one palette
  generation per displayed frame.

• Calculate XaviX 2 CWD depth and perspective weights for culled polygons
  retained in the output list. Dragon Ball's coincident billboard anchors
  now supply the character depth read back by the CPU, allowing ordinary
  depth ordering to place battle text and attack effects in front. Remove
  the tiled-fighter/effect and exact-banner-descriptor ordering workarounds.
  Add optional submission/active-line diagnostics and periodic framebuffer
  captures to the boot probe without changing runtime-state layout.

• Reapply the saved 1x-4x window scale after a game is launched from the ROM
  library. A selected 4x window therefore remains 4x after restarting the
  application instead of inheriting the smaller 1080x720 library window.

• Decode XaviX 2 translucent palette entries as the hardware's interleaved
  premultiplied RGB444 plus three-bit Nalpha, rather than fixed one-half
  transparency, with Nalpha=7 as the indexed-texture transparent endpoint.
  Take-copter's water palette now produces the wide cyan/white
  distance haze that hides the sea/sky seam, and its three overlapping cloud
  planes no longer form a dark rectangular background. The same generic path
  is used by Blue Dragon, Naruto and both Dragon Ball titles. Enhanced 2x
  presentation now also retains the 3D contribution beneath partially
  transparent foreground sprites, avoiding a presentation-only seam where
  Dragon Ball's red energy aura crosses 3D geometry while keeping fully opaque
  sprite artwork pixel-sharp. Battle layer ordering now uses the corrected
  CWD-derived character depth described above.

• Correct XaviX 2 premultiplied alpha composition from SSD's RPU patent.
  Take-copter's white/cyan horizon haze and Dragon Ball's shared translucent
  layers no longer halve their stored foreground RGB a second time. Match the
  Take-copter F7 flight/fade sequence to hardware at one IRQ-7 event per 60 Hz
  frame in every display mode; the logo/carousel width no longer incorrectly
  doubles GPU submissions and makes menu animation or audio miss real time.
  PCM pitch remains on its independent 98,437,488 Hz source. Implement the RPU
  sprite Filter=0
  four-tap sampler, including interpolation of premultiplied alpha, so the
  scaled Take-copter flying characters no longer retain coarse nearest-neighbor
  edges. Emulate the title-programmed $e620 2-by-2 Gouraud dither pattern to
  soften RGB555 sky gradients without applying an invented whole-frame blur.
  Merge Take-copter's GPU0/GPU1 submissions across the $e408/$e414 pair:
  its ROM-provided depth-zero full-screen transition now composites after the
  clouds and characters, so the entire scene fades toward pale blue/white
  together instead of repainting clear sprites over an already-white sky.
  Restore the observed Type-1 backdrop then Nalpha-graded Type-0 water
  class order, reducing the recent hard white horizon strip.

• Add dedicated epo_dtcj Take-copter controls. Keyboard directions, right-
  mouse drag, the selected PS/gamepad analogue stick, and Wii pointer input now
  feed the firmware's verified 4-by-4 head-tilt receiver; left mouse/Enter
  supplies a filtered forward/start gesture, and middle mouse/Space or a
  bindable action performs the original quick backward-to-forward boost.
  Per-game settings expose forward, backward, left, right, upright, and boost;
  the former orange host target is hidden because head tilt is not a screen
  cursor.

• Add an in-game Escape confirmation: the first press pauses emulation and
  audio, a second Escape safely saves EEPROM and returns to the game library,
  while Enter resumes without advancing the guest during the prompt.

• Add a PCSX2-style game library. Users can save a ROM directory in the local
  INI, browse every mounted drive, recursively scan exact supported ZIPs in all
  subfolders, view formal title, XaviXEmu's own
  verified green/yellow/red support status, release year, XaviX generation,
  maker, filename and a 160x120 screenshot thumbnail, then sort by any column.
  Double-click/Enter launches; right-click opens a title-specific control guide
  and that ROM's independent INI button bindings. F8 screenshots use the ROM
  shortname so the first capture is reused as the game's thumbnail.

• Recognize rad_mtrk, rad_snow, rad_ssx, rad_sbw, tak_gin,
  tcarnavi, and tomthr by exact size/CRC32/SHA-1. Add an original-XaviX
  plain-input profile for 1/2/4 MiB boards without injecting Hamtaro wireless
  packets, plus independent F5/F7 state identities.

• Add keyboard, mouse, and PS/gamepad analogue controls for the seven early
  racing/vehicle systems. Model Monster Truck's direction bit and 20 Hz wheel
  pulse interrupt, use graduated duty-cycle steering/board lean for fine
  analogue corrections, and expose the observed vehicle accessory func...
