Author: fayvel.victor | Date: 11 października 2014 21:47:16

• Fix recent_files config option automatically
• The recent_files list has to be an python object serialization. This object must be an array of strings. Python will save unicode strings and Python3 strings. Not following this rule make m64py crash either while loading the recent_files information or when adding a new entry when a file is opened.

• Avoid loading invalid numeric config entries
• Don't try to load old style "true"/"false" config entries as integer. This would cause an value error and crash m64py. Instead try to load the content only when it is valid and otherwise use the m64py default value.

• Merge pull request #28 from fayvel/joystick_detect
• Add special SDL2 joystick event system for input config

M64Py 0.2.2 [SVN 174]

Author: fayvel.victor | Date: 12 października 2014 13:53:57

• Add special SDL2 joystick event system for input config
• The SDL1.2 system cannot cope with Dualshock and similar controllers. After pressing the config button, an random axis will be configured. This happens because the state of the device (with 27 or more axis) changes all the time.
• This problem can be avoided for these devices under Linux when SDL2 is used together with its event system. These random movements doesn't anymore with these joysticks and the hid_sony driver in SDL2+SDL_PollEvent. This seem to be fixable with SDL1.2 because it just cannot handle newer devices. Also the SDL_PollEvent doesn't work with the ctypes version of PySDL for unknown reasons. Thus the implementation cannot be shared between SDL1.2 and SDL2.
• To use the new input detection, m64py must be started with the sdl2 option and a version of mupen64plus compiled against SDL2. $ m64py --sdl2

• Merge pull request #24 from fayvel/non_native_romlist
• Add support for non-native rom files in romlist

M64Py 0.2.2 [SVN 170]

Author: fayvel.victor | Date: 11 października 2014 22:39:21

• Add support for non-native rom files in romlist mupen64plus supports roms in native (*.z64), byteswapped (*.v64) and wordswapped (*.n64) rom files. Unfortunately, m64py only supported native rom files because it didn't swap the also swapped big endian crc values back to the unswapped host ordered crc values for non-native rom files. This caused crc checks to fail for these rom files.

M64Py 0.2.2 [SVN 168]

Author: fayvel.victor | Date: 9 października 2014 19:31:38

• Don't try numarray and Numeric to get uint* data types Neither numarray nor Numeric provide the types uint8, uint16 or uint32. Trying to use them without having numpy installed will cause an AttributeError.

M64Py 0.2.2 [SVN 156]

Author: fayvel.victor | Date: 6 września 2014 09:58:07

• Don't installing conflicting mime type for *.*64
• There is already an mime type for Nintendo64 roms called application/x-n64-rom.
• This one has to be extended instead of installing a conflicting type. Otherwise only one of the desktop entries for mupen64plus-ui-console or m64py works and not both.

• Handle missing dependencies of plugins during plugin_load_try

M64Py 0.2.2 [SVN 152]

Author: fayvel.victor | Date: 5 września 2014 21:08:18

• Handle missing dependencies of plugins during plugin_load_try Instead of letting m64py crash with an OSError when the loading of a plugin fails, it should better create an error message but continue working with the remaining plugins.
• An error can for example look like this:
• Frontend: ERROR: failed to load plugin /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mupen64plus /mupen64plus-video-glide64mk2.so: libpng15.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

• The list of codes of a multi code cheat without a category were overwritten each time by a an empty list. This made these non-working or even let the emulated rom hang.

• Don't sort cheat database after load
• The entries in the cheat database have to kept in the order in which they are read or otherwise the preconditions prefix the wrong writes to memory. This leads to hangs and crashes for multi code cheats.
