[Arcade] Raine v0.64.15

Raine 0.64.15

Just because someone noticed the fps setting from the game options dialog was not saved per game and he needed it !
So you need to enable 1st "save per game screen settings" in video options, and then the fps setting will be saved with this new 0.64.15, that's all there is about it !

Raine 0.64.16

There were quite a few fixes since the last released binary, and even « fairy land story » which is now playable (and it was way harder than what I had anticipated, a very old game, but not an easy one !). There are no major fixes anyway, see the git log and post here if you are interested !

Revision 1398

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: poniedziałek, 24 grudnia 2018 23:33:35

• 0.64.16

Revision 1397

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: poniedziałek, 24 grudnia 2018 23:33:35

• 0.64.16
• enough fixes for a new binary I guess... !

Revision 1396

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: wtorek, 18 grudnia 2018 17:05:23

• history: search separately for the game and its parent
• With the latest history.dat it was impossible to get the history of some
• neogeo games because neogeo was placed before in the file (tested with
• wakuwak7, I actually wonder if it ever worked).
• Anyway the fix is simple, just search the whole file for the game first
• and only then search for the parent if nothing was found.

Revision 1395

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: środa, 10 października 2018 21:14:43

• raine.h: use the NO_ASM define
• it didn't create any bug when compiling on an x86 chip, but when
• compiling on anything else it had to assemble some x86 asm code... !

Revision 1394

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: środa, 10 października 2018 21:11:17

• loadroms: fix a bug in handling multiple layouts / region
• normally the end of GFX_LIST should be
• { 0, NULL }
• except there is a lot of
• { -1 }
• instead. I guess it comes from mame, but there are quite a few in the
• sources already, so it obliges me to change the test to detect the end
• of the list. It created a flipped screen in dkong for example !
• The -1 shouldn't even be accepted by the compiler since it's an UINT32
• here... !

Revision 1393

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: sobota, 15 września 2018 14:49:20

• dos about game dialog: fix buffer overflow !
• if history is too big for this game, happened for bublbobl !
• And while I was at it, I doubled the buffer

Revision 1392

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: sobota, 15 września 2018 09:02:47

Revision 1389

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: sobota, 15 września 2018 00:01:49

• raine.c: remove the useless r in the printfs !
• These have survived way too long, inherited from the very old dos days,
• + they are totally useless and produce some annoying chars when
• redirecting the output to a file in linux

Revision 1388

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: piątek, 14 września 2018 23:55:54

• dialogs/about: buffer overflow of 1 char !
• on the cpu model name if very long, it was trigerred only with an
• optimized build, while displaying the about dialog after having played
• for some time to get the frequency of the cpu on the same line !
• 1 char only !

Revision 1387

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: piątek, 14 września 2018 23:55:22

Revision 1383

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: poniedziałek, 30 kwietnia 2018 13:03:52

Revision 1379

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: niedziela, 29 kwietnia 2018 00:54:14

• history: search the parent if the clone is not found
• Actually it searches the parent and the clone together which can be a
• problem if there are seperate records for both, but it's extremely rare,
• and since there are quite a few clones which are not referenced it's
• probably better like that.

Revision 1378

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: poniedziałek, 23 kwietnia 2018 07:31:17

• debian updates
• debian-neoraine should have been removed long ago

Revision 1375

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: wtorek, 10 kwietnia 2018 01:16:15

• and print the "jump to ram" message only when the address is unknown,

Revision 1373

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: niedziela, 8 kwietnia 2018 21:43:29

• and remove some debug messages

Revision 1365

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: niedziela, 8 kwietnia 2018 03:22:14

• flstory: some crazy patching for the mcu !
• the main cpu sends a command to jump in ram where there is a jump to
• some address in rom. So I tried to read these adresses one by one and
• create labels to make them accessible. With this flstory finally becomes
• playable, at least level 1 that I tried !
• Some sprites still have bad colors and there is no sound, but it's great
• anyway ! :)

• the fl_mcu.c file produced by the 68705 recompiler
• and modified by me, I added the mcu related functions, + some hacks so
• that the rom is usable, it's mandatory in its current state.
• As it is now, it starts, it sends the correct rom crc, and after that it
• sends rubbish, I don't know why, probably some other bugs inside !

Revision 1361

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: sobota, 7 kwietnia 2018 23:17:20

• some work on heavy unit and flstory
• they are still both broken, but since there was a lot of work done and I
• am starting to get pissed off at the 68705 recompiler, I'll commit
• anyway. The mcu is still broken for flstory, it's the biggest problem.

Revision 1360

Revision 1338

Author: emmanuel.anne | Date: piątek, 30 marca 2018 17:33:12

• toaplan1: vimana was forgotten, and invert sprites/layers prio
• for the priority, it shows when entering a score in hellfire: the
• letter is in PF4 and there is a sprite with the same priority to show
• the selection mark. So if you draw sprites over layers which have the

• Gui: windows doesn't need a colour depth change anymore, and the mode changes should be invisible
• while cleaning up the taito f2 driver (yeah very old stuff, never completely finished), I noticed you couldn't access the pulirula dipswitches, so it's fixed too.

Raine 0.64.12

• I finally got curious about this bug and actually took the time to read the output of raine when the shaders didn't work with the new nvidia drivers, and there was actually something weird to read ! It was all because there was a bug in nvidia drivers <= version 355.11 which made them to return a buffer of 1 byte for the info log of the shader program when there was nothing to report ! I made a workaround for this and totally forgot about it, but it failed when nvidia fixed this and now the buffer has correctly 0 bytes when nothing to report... !!!
  Anyway it means shaders now work correctly for any nvidia drivers, and it could probably affect some other video cards as well.
  Those not using shaders don't need to update, this 0.64.12 only fixes shaders, and the fix is very short !

Mobile Suit Gundam (Banpresto, 1993)

Raine 0.64.10

• a surprising bug in the clipping of text in the gui which should not have been there
• the fix of mer-curious fireball, hopefully ! 
• a fix for a crash during nam1975 demo because of a stupid fadeout effect !
• But also finally the video priorities for the gunbird driver have been added, plus a few sounds which couldn't be heard before are now played correctly (for almost all the games in this driver).
•  neocd music now adapts to the sample rate chosen in sound options
•  the fix for the bug about cawing reported just after releasing 0.64.9 !
•   plus a few small fixes here and there not worth mentioning..

Raine 0.64.6

• That's all for this time, this version is mainly to allow people to test the translation stuff...

Raine 0.64.5

Currently waiting to be included into a new binary :
- aes bios support: at least it works, I can't say I tested it a lot, it seems to completely ignore the dipswitches, but it's probably normal (probably no dipswitches in these aes cabinets I guess).
- fixed the day of week for the neogeo calendar displayed when you choose "book keeping" (b+c+d at boot with unibios, and something equivalent with most other bioses I guess...). This clock is completely different from modern clocks in pcs. Nowdays clocks are synchronized using ntp over the network at a scale of 0.001s or sometimes even much less. This one is very unprecise, it increases its seconds everytime the display is updated, except the neogeo display is not exactly 60fps, it's 59.2 fps approx, so it quickly gets out of sync ! Actually the role of this clock was only to keep track of how many times a given game was played and if continue was used on it, how much time and at which date. No need for a lot of precision for that, but it's still quite surprising. Not talking about this year on 2 digits only in 199x, but I guess they didn't actually care about the year at all in this case...
Anyway in raine this clock is initialized from the pc clock when you launch a game so you get the correct date in "book keeping", but I had forgotten the day of week, I thought it was computed, but no, it's just read as well from the calendar chip. So this one comes also from the pc clock now, so you'll get a precise calendar now ! :) (totally useless, yes, I know !)
- Hum, except that I played at reproducing the level skipper in bublredux using a raine script for the other bublbobl clones. Oh well, the only thing I didn't emulate is the sound effect produced when you change the level. It was just to check it can be done very quickly, and indeed, it's very short to do ! For normal player it means there is a new cheat for all bublbobl clones, "skip this level", completely at the end of the list normally.

Raine 0.64.4

Tsss, I release 0.64.3 without finding how the "level skipper" of bublredux works, but I guess it's ok, how such a thing could break ?
Then Stephh explains it works by using p1+p2 together and of course it breaks !
Well the most reasonable solution would have been to just ignore it, the same thing can be done with a cheat in raine...
But I hate these small things when they don't want to work !
So I spent a lot of time on it, it was yet another instruction missing from our beloved mz80 (prefix ed opcode 6b for the technical users). I don't kinow why the guys of bublredux programmed it this way, it could have been done with the standard instructions and it wouldn't have crashed in this case.
Anyway I added the missing instruction and so here is an update with just this thing working.
While I was at it, I updated the bublredux romset from the latest version in the forum thread (january 2015). It doesn't change anything related to this problem. That's all !

Raine 0.64.3: special bubble bobble ! Posted by Tux on Mar 26 2015, 03:51 pm

• I didn't know about the 2 new clones of bubble bobble released in 2013, so I just added them, cleaned up a lot of things in the bubble bobble driver (automatic rom loading, no more bad sounds), added the hiscores for bubble cave and buubble redux to the hiscore.dat (find it in the extras part of the download section). I also added dream land, another clone from 1987, much easier to add now that the driver supports automatic rom loading.
• Except that quite a few small fixes as usual, the biggest one was probably that the cold boot function (f1 key) was broken in quite a few drivers, it should be fixed now, except that some region selection didn't work anymore, renamed a few games to keep hiscore.dat compatibility (the good thing with raine is that the old name is still supported on the command line), hiscores were broken for games using a z80 as their main cpu and which were using automatic rom bankswitch (bubble bobble for example !), there is another zoom fix for neocd/neogeo, a stupid bug was fixed in neocd when reloading the same game, the audio banks are now correctly restored when loading a neogeo/neocd savegame, and wakuwaku7 sound associations are adapted to support the audio tracks from the saturn version.

Raine 0.64.2 Posted by Tux on Jan 07 2015, 10:11 am

• the return key didn't work anymore in the game selection dialog, fixed and commented, it won't happen again.
• the blend options dialog is better and has an immediate effect, no need to reset/reload the game anymore.
• prevent the console from growing all the time once it has its scrollbar !
