Good work with the new release of BSNES. I'm trying to compare Higan v106 performance with it and I gotta ask, why does Load a ROM in Higan v106 always open to my User folder? I only see an option to specify a default path for Libraries (which is honored if I want to load a game from a Library). Edit: The same happens in BSNES v108 when configuring paths. when Assigning a path clicking an Assign button will always, always open to my Windows User folder (yes, even if a path is already defined) and in both Higan and BSNES I can't just copy/paste/manually type the paths in to any of the fields, I have to click Assign to configure one. Load Game honors the specified path in BSNES, but it unloads the currently running ROM before you even attempt to open another ROM (what if you wanted to cancel?).

true pixel-perfect ZSNES snow effect emulation OH SHIT YEAH! KILLER FEATURE! Seriously, though. Good job on the release, byuu. 25% speed boost is notable, even though your emu hasn't been the system-killer it is reputed as for quite some time. The massively improved Super GameBoy is, of course, also quite appreciated. --- In UTF-16, where available. --- |

Holy crap, what an epic release! Great job! Did we have movie support at one point? |

Great release. The emulator doesn't just have high accuracy but is pretty great in the features department too now. The snow effect is actually quite nice, no joke, despite it being fairly simple. |

Audio is kind of funky here. Fast-forward queues up seconds worth of audio for some reason. Probably something with the OSS emulation in ALSA. I might play around with the ruby ALSA code and see if I can get DRC working with it. |

yea! :D amazing work from byuu the speed optimization is real nice though my pc never had any problems with running bsnes, it's no small task to improve on something with that level of precision i imagine.Also i think the speedup may have broken NS's internet and/or NS... what the? |

> why does Load a ROM in Higan v106 always open to my User folder? v106 is dead. Long live v106. But to answer you question, load ROM was a stopgap, you were supposed to load in your games and then use the library. > when Assigning a path clicking an Assign button will always, always open to my Windows User folder How often do you change your default paths that it even matters where it starts? D: I was trying to avoid having to track the most recently used paths there, so since it has to default somewhere, I just chose a person's home folder. > I can't just copy/paste/manually type the paths in to any of the fields It was meant to stop you from typing in invalid paths. But now that you mention it, an uneditable text box is a pretty poor way of conveying this. I should turn them into labels since they aren't editable. > it unloads the currently running ROM before you even attempt to open another ROM (what if you wanted to cancel?). This is how I support Super Game Boy, BS Satellaview carts, Sufami Turbo multi-slot carts, etc. When you choose "load game", I unload the system, then call load() with no arguments. The core then calls the GUI to say "hey I need a ROM", and you can give it a ROM or not, but the last game was already unloaded now. If you pick a Super Game Boy BIOS, the core can then say "hey I'd like another ROM, this time for the Game Boy." I may be able to monkey patch around this in a crude way, but that's why it works as it does currently. > Seriously, though. Good job on the release, byuu. Thank you ^-^; > even though your emu hasn't been the system-killer it is reputed as for quite some time. Currenty, on a lowly $150 Ryzen 2, higan is at 120fps, bsnes is at 390fps (but fast forwards at 500fps.) I've pretty well exhausted every reasonable performance gain left that won't sacrifice accuracy. But I need to get things faster still. The current hotness is emulator enhancements: HD mode 7, CPU overclocking, widescreen, 480p deinterlacing, NTSC filters, and run-ahead. That stuff eats up CPU resources like crazy. > Did we have movie support at one point? v073 was the last version with it. > The snow effect is actually quite nice, no joke, despite it being fairly simple. It'll be even fancier in the next release, I added alpha blending support to give it a depth-of-field effect. Gimmicky, but you can't put a price on nostalgia. > Audio is kind of funky here. Fast-forward queues up seconds worth of audio for some reason. DRC doesn't work well fast-forward and rewind, yeah. I could perhaps disable it while doing either? > I might play around with the ruby ALSA code and see if I can get DRC working with it. That would be extremely appreciated if you do, thank you! I wish there were a way we didn't have to duplicate our efforts. You guys are masters of the frontend stuff, and I'm good at the backend stuff. Ah well. In any case, I adapted my PPU core to not use higan-specific pieces like my template integer types. If you guys would be okay with the LGPL and want to become 50% bsnes instead of just 25% bsnes, let me know ^-^ Also, I've been trying to work on the problem of audio sounding like a hot mess when fast-forwarding. DRC or not, I don't know of a way to do that without distorting the pitch, so for now I default to lowering the volume on fast forward, with an option to mute during fast forward. > Also i think the speedup may have broken NS's internet and/or NS... what the? NS? |

The NSS had access to the Internet? "Nintendo Switch"? I still don't get it, though.... |

It's been really greatly appreciated not having to deal with forum drama, but on the downside I tend to forget about the place as a result, sorry ^^; |

Posted by byuu oh no worries,I more than understand you believe me. i see you mentioned run-ahead earlier as something that could be considered in the future, or at the very least I think you're toying with the idea maybe. That'd be quite something to have but I get it'd be no simple task either especially considering the emulator is still, understandably enough, more demanding than snes9x and run-ahead already obliterates the performance of some of the more demanding cores when turned on, like for beetle psx or beetle saturn. |
