[Frontend] QuickPlay 4.6.4

Pojawiła się u nowa wersja uniwersalnej nakładki na emulatory QuickPlay - programik, który z ciekawostek np. pozwala zintegrować się np. z GameBase (gdyby komuś nie odpowiadało korzystanie z GB:P), obsługuje również LibRetro (RetroArch)

QuickPlay 4.7.6 26/03/2022

Features

  • export: #49 - added name and comment to ini export
    • see https://forums.quickplayfrontend.com/viewtopic.php?t=1449
    • thanks to user hasseno for raising this

Mametool

  • mame: Fix issues found running against Mame 0.241
    • Fix issue with softlist printing -
    • https://forums.quickplayfrontend.com/viewtopic.php?t=2652
    • thanks to user u-neeks
    • stop hardcoding Mame64 in generated Mame efind. Instead use the Mame emulator the user has selected
    • fix illegal filename chars introduced in a single emulator in Mame 0.219, causing softlist printing to exit
    • Exclude more new boring systems
    • Re-class all ZX Spectrums as Sinclair (Mame started calling some Amstrad)
  • mame: rethink Mame filepaths functionlity:
    • Possibilities for Mame rompaths set by users is arbitrary, therefore convention can't be guessed by machines, instead ask the user to tell us via dropdowns where each of the four romtypes we deal with are
    • Thanks to Ulao and others for raising issues that led to this conclusion
    • fix bug with Mame filepaths checkbox/flag, also disable correct sections if filepath printing has been disabled
    • alter Mame Options form to accomodate filepaths
    • alter all Mame 'printer' forms - should never have been able to change Mame emulator at the point of printing (since this potentially invalidates a number of decisions already made in Mame Options like rompaths)
    • add call to to get rompath from Mame's settings ini, add UI elements to display to user
    • always turn mame rompaths absolute (in case use has relative rompaths)
    • logic to invalidate rompath is your mame executable or its ini file change
    • improve saving of filepath/rompath
    • trim mame.ini's rompath properly
    • make no-path printing consistent between arcade and softlist printing

Bugfixes

  • romlist: relabel 'delete rom'...
    • this does not delete any files from disk, it removes item from your romdata
    • https://forums.quickplayfrontend.com/viewtopic.php?t=1452
    • thanks to user quickplayer
  • romlist: prompt before clearing romlist
    • https://forums.quickplayfrontend.com/viewtopic.php?t=1452
    • thanks to jaw970 for posting this one
  • open dir: fix opening Rom in explorer issue when comma part of filename,
    • properly escape filename...
    • see https://forums.quickplayfrontend.com/viewtopic.php?t=1338
    • thanks to user quickplayer for pointing this out
  • qpnode: upgrade node.js version qpnode from node 10 to 14
    • This should stop windows defender flagging QPnode.exe as a potential virus
    • see https://forums.quickplayfrontend.com/viewtopic.php?t=1436#p2008
    • Thanks to Sandman1973 on the forums for raising this
  • synctool: increase default time tolerance for file comparison
    • for whatever reason, often src and dest files have timestamps which differ only by ms, they are the same file

Technical Debt

  • git: Add 'lib' directory to source code
    • often we don't add tons of external libs to our source, however several needs arose over time, and in this case, it makes sense
  • qpnode: fix issue with pkg and native module
    • see https://github.com/vercel/pkg/issues/1319
  • qpnode: enable combinatory operations to be run in sequence
    • e.g.:(scan then softlist printing in dev)
  • qpnode: better usage info when invoked with no args
  • qpnode: slightly improved logging
  • qpnode: add linting config
  • qpnode: improve readme/dev instructions
  • mame: Refactor Mame options logic generally e.g.: gatekeepers for xml scan
  • mame: add inputs to source code
NOWSZY [Frontend] QuickPlay 4.7.5

QuickPlay 4.7.5

  • misc fixes for about form
  • mametool fix bug when user only has one rompath in their mame.ini for all romtypes (ie: when CHDs etc are subfolders of their ROMS folder) - bug found by user sekelje
  • mametool allow rompaths in mame.ini to be relative (detect relative paths, and append mame emulator path to all paths found if folder is relative) - raiseed by sekelje
  • mametool fix issue discovered with Mame 220: devices do not need instances or extensions according to MAME DTD, Mametool was assuming all devices would have instances (useless without?). Remove devices without instances and additionally defensively protect use of device briefnames - bug found by sekelje
  • mametool take naming of 'Acorn Computers' (MAME 220) back to 'Acorn' (QuickPlay company names try to be as simple/short as possible, if the intention was to highight a difference between well-known Acorn and another Acorn, should have renamed the other Acorn)
  • romdata magician Genesis can't coexist w Genesis/32X...
  • Romdata Magician GBA current system name needs bumping...
  • updated repo readme

QuickPlay 4.7.4

  • Update retroarch efind to retroarch 1.81

  • use dats dir for synctool conf
  • fix issue with synctool config enable on hostname
  • small fixes to a couple of efinds
  • omit mess emus from efinds (user should run mamemtool if they want all the MESS emus)

QuickPlay 4.7.0 12/10/19

New Features

  • Synctool
    • You can setup a single Remote and local folder - anything under will sync: clicking on a rom will cause it to cache locally if necessary
    • Directories are mirrored as well as files cached, so folder structure form source is maintained (you know what roms are from what system)
    • Symlink support so that you can extend your storage/keep CD/DVD files in a different location
    • Synctool Options - Electron UI Element which manages and talks to the new qpnode settings file
    • Romdata Flip - Users can change the Local path to the Remote one and vice versa in multiple Romdatas
    • UI component to Romdata Flip shows you files changed, also prompts confirmation
    • Remove syncing abilities of QuickPlay Multiloader, now vastly superceeded
    • Update Johnlib with various types of exe running code that have varying effects (like printing to console)
    • QuickPlay calls to node to see if Synctool is Enabled before doing anything
    • Waits a while after running so you can see what happened, also writes to logfile in QuickPlay's root
    • Quit with ctrl+c implemented (you sometimes have to wait for the current chunk to finish)
    • Copies timestamps as well as files, uses timestamps to determine equality
    • Timestamp difference tolerance (configurable). I don't know why sometimes timestamps are off with copies of files not done through synctool, but they are
    • Timeout for finding roots (try not to hang loading a potential rom just because we can't check if its the same file as on the server)
    • Some investigation of a stream-based solution, left as an option but just too slow
  • Mametool Paths
    • Disabled by default, Mametool can work out paths of all files from mame.xml and print them in Romdatas
    • Implemented for both Arcade and Mess Softlists (much more useful for the latter)
    • We can only sync one file, but print helpful info to the log about other files which need to exist locally in order for games to run (eg: BIOS)
    • Mame Options enlarged and added to
    • you can select what kind of merged roms you have (it affects what the filenames would be)
    • Looks up your mame.ini (or mess.ini) for your MAME Rompaths, uses conventional names to distinguish (or you can have all roms in one ROMS folder)
    • Defaults to old behaviour in case of issues (printing a 'sentinel' filepath in a romdata entry so QuickPlay ignores the filepath element)
  • Node/Electron
    • First use of Nodejs Electron in QuickPlay to run synctool options (the hope is to extend this somewhat)
    • build and binary process implemented, Delphi makes appropriate exe calls
    • resolved some issues with old js packaging process, hopefully to be superceeded by the new process
    • json options file implemented, creation process implemented (its a plan to avoid upgrading issues with overwriting settings)

Bugfixes

  • Right-click explorer explores to file not just dir (thanks to user 'quickplayer')
  • Quotes in mednafen in case of no 8:3 (also thanks to 'quickplayer')
  • fixed bug with mame0.211 softlist printing (thanks to u-neeks for a fantastic bug report!)

→ [Frontend] QuickPlay 4.6.0

QuickPlay 4.6.0 is released

  • Mame softlists: other game names functionality: Mame made some mistakes:
    • mamenames for games are unique per-machine's device, not unique per machine as they should be (smb2 could be both a flop for the Jap version and a cart for the US version, so what happens when you call mame famicom smb2?)
    • mamename loading (without specifying device) does nice things like multi-disc loading. If you do specify device, no nice things
    • its hard to tell when you have a name conflice, which device will be treated as the 'default' So, to load the correct game, we look for exceptional game name conflicts between the original softlists for a system. If we find conflicts, only then do we override the mame call by specifying device
  • fix some other issues found to get more games working in mame, in particular: 
    • the custom calls needed for the nes_ and snes_ 'special cartridge' softlists
    • forcing up the rating of certain emulators for a system, to make sure games load easier, in particular msx1_flop, where a late Brazilian variant loads double-density disks, and msx2p, where the previous default emus required you to know Japanese to load a game
  • make image fit in thumbnail media panel view...
  • add back and next buttons for image viewer
  • update and tweak the RetroArch efind, many additions and fixes to take up to RetroArch 1.6.9
  • stop multiloader using deamon tools to mount zips (turns out it was VERY slow, often in-game, just always unzip)
  • refresh mednafen efinds (add mednafen saturn)
→ [Frontend] QuickPlay 4.2.1
