AdvanceMAME v3.9
ADVANCEMAME/MESS VERSION 3.9 2018/09
- Fixed input games with a relative input when controlled with
an absolute controller. Like 'cabal' or 'offroad' when
controlled with a joystick. - Added the new 'display_artwork_magnify' to use a bigger screen
size when the game has an artwork to display. - Included the cheat.dat resource in the main distribution.
- Fixed loading files with an absolute path, like with misc_cheatfile.
ADVANCEMENU VERSION 3.9 2018/09
- Added a new 'menu' option at the 'misc_exit' configuration to
have a confirmation menu before quitting. - Fixed the creation of the default advmenu.rc, avoiding the "volume"
syntax error.
AdvanceMAME v3.8
- Change the default 'sync_resample' mode to 'internal' to all games
using the pokey sound chip. This avoid crashes and provide
a better sound audio. One example is 'starwars'. - Don't update input configurations that are not changed at runtime.
- Added a new 'config' option to allow to decide if the .rc configuration
should be saved at exit or not. If saved, they are written
in a resiliant way, able to resist to unexpected power-downs. - Fixed font size computation. Now the menu always has the same size.
- In AdvanceMESS added a new 'misc_ui' option to configure the keyboard
emulation. Note that the default is now to have partial emulation
by default to allow the user to control the emulator user
interface. - In AdvanceMESS added a new 'ui_keyboard' input to show a runtime menu
to simulate some keypress. - Added support for configuring joystick and mouse buttons in the 'event'
configuration option. - Added the 'display_resizeeffect' option like in AdvanceMAME to scale
screenshots. - In the screensaver if the clip is too short, don't restart it when
it finishes, but switch to the next one. - In 'lock' mode is still possible to shutdown, if the 'misc_exit'
option allows it. - Added a new 'advblue' tool able to pair and connect automatically
bluetooth joysticks and gamepads. This is Linux only. - Added a new 'ui_autocalib' option to automatically start a joystick
calibration menu if no joystick is detected. This works better
with the Linux event driver, with an immediate notification.
With other drivers it checks only when the idle screensaver
starts. - Other configuration options added: 'ui_topname', 'sort smart_time',
'ui_text/bar_font', 'ui_outline', 'skip_horz' and 'skip_vert' - The configuration .rc file is wrote in a resiliant way, able to
resist to unexpected power-downs. Take care that this is
automatically disabled if the .rc is a symbolic link. - Always wait for vsync to avoid to use 100% CPU.
- Added a new 'exit' event to separate the exit action from the
generic esc one. Ensure to change also misc_exit to make this
command to work. - Avoid to flash the cursor if it has equal foreground and background
color.
AdvanceMAME v3.7
- In the Exit menu added new Load/Save/Reset commands.
The Load and Save use the state file at position '0'. - Added the game uccopsar, "Undercover Cops - Alpha Renewal Version".
You can use the MAME rom. - Fixed some issues in the z80 emulator with modern gcc compilers
in the x86 32 bits platforms.
AdvanceMAME v3.6
- Fixed Linux ALSA sound jitter increasing the number of periods.
- Fixed screen size computation using backdrops.
- Disabled by default in the source distribution the MIPS DRC emulator
because it makes various games to crash. Like biofreak, blitz,
calspeed, carnevil, kinst and others...
It was already disabled in the binary releases from version 3.0.
AdvanceMAME v3.5
- Fixed led control for the Linux event keyboard interface.
- Added a new option 'ui_scrollbar' to disable the lateral scroll
bars. - Added a new option 'ui_name' to disable the display of the game
name in the screensaver.
AdvanceMAME v3.4
- Add supports for up to 8 players. Before it was fully
supporting only 4 players. - Fixed handling of multiple identical devices in input_map[].
- Don't lose the device name in input_map[] if run with the device
disconnected.
AdvanceMAME v3.3
- Fixed handling of input_map[] definitions [Vincent Hamon].
- Fixed crashes in games xmen6p and xmen6pu.
AdvanceMAME v3.2
- Fixed a terminating hanging condition when dealing with the
Raspberry VideoCore. There are some hidden timing
dependencies that could cause VideoCore to misbehave. - Inverted the polarity of hsync/vsync in Raspberry when using
hdmi_timings. In hdmi_timings 1 means "inverted polarity",
and then "-hsync/-vsync". - Fixes aspect ratio of Sega System 32 and most Neogeo games.
- Improved the support for Sega Megadrive and
Sega Master System recognizing more software formats. - In the input definitions support the use of the device name
to avoid issues when devices are reordered.
You can use the advk, advj and advm tools to get the
identifier names to in the 'keryboard[]', 'mouse[]' and
'joystick[]' input definitions. - Disabled the SDL2 system keyboard hotkeys to avoid to lose focus.
- Fixed the loading of software images from the UI file browser.
AdvanceMAME v3.1
- Added support for SDL2. It's the new default in Linux and Windows.
This results in better performance and better VSync support
when running in a window manager environment like X Window
or Windows. It also enables again the RGB effects.
The exception is Raspberry where SDL1 still provides better
performance in the X Window environment, and it's still the
default option. - More reliable Raspberry video mode setting when using programmable
modes. It now uses the Raspberry VideoCore libraries to
control better the system. - More precise VSync syncronization, avoiding any missing frame.
- In MESS fixed the loading of disk image for the TI99-4A system.
- In MAME marked 'retofinv', 'svc', 'prmrsocr' and 'viostorm' as not
working to trigger the use of the working clones.
Also added the game 'mp_shnb3'. - Fixed the UI flickering and a potential crash when SMP is active.
- The Linux joystick event and raw interface now support up to 32
button. Before it was only 12. - If SMP is active, don't automatically disable the resize
effect if the game is too slow. This gives a more
stable 'auto' effect. - Changed the 'sync_resample auto' to be 'emulation' instead
of 'internal'. This give more stable sound when
the game emulation is too slow. - The 'display_magnify auto' option now takes into account
the monitor limits to avoid over scaling. - Restored the functionality of "-output fullscreen" option.
It wasn't able anymore to find video modes. - Added support running from a SSH shell.
- Removed the 'lq' effect. It was not really used.
The 'scale2x' and 'scale2k' are faster and better. - The RunClone menu now excludes preliminary clones if they
are already filtered out in the main list.
