Implemented DirectInput8 support.

I'm surprised how easy it was to add. Just took a matter of minutes.

Though I'm considering dropping it since Microsoft officially doesn't condone its use, and rather the use of Raw Input when using keyboards...Though it works great in Munes

Where do you want it? In the title bar? As a onscreen texture/quad? As 3D rendered text?

[Hard core Rikki]

In the title bar sounds more appropriate.

Done.

void FPS(HWND hWnd)					
{
	static float fps           = 0.0f;						
    static float previousTime  = 0.0f;	
	static char  strFPS[20]    = {0};
	
	float currentTime = (GetTickCount() * 0.001f);				

    ++fps;	// Increment the FPS counter

    if( currentTime - previousTime > 1.0f )
    {
	    previousTime = currentTime;
		sprintf(strFPS, "MuNES - FPS: %d", int(fps));
		SetWindowText(hWnd, strFPS);
        fps = 0.0f;
    }

DON'T DROP DIRECTINPUT!
microsoft just wants to promote xInput

people that have DirectInput Gamepad Drivers (like me ) won't work with anything else.

the best thing would be to just make an option to switch between input modes.

nice

although i like QueryPerformanceCounter() better for its accuracy

but since you mentioned you want support from old systems like win95; i think older hardware has issues with it, or doesn't support it.

New update.

Added sound via SDL.
Added support for @ES.

If anyone wants to try this out, please get in touch.

Do you plan to make a linux port?

Are those shots using Squalls palette? It may just be my monitor, but the Mario Bros. sky looks a little red.

winmm.lib offers timeGetTime() for better accuracy. AFAIK, thats the best timer there is in the Windows API. And its a standard function.

No.

i took a look at this webpage when determining which timer function i should use for PCSX2's frameskipping.
Timing in Win32

timeGetTime() can be pretty inaccurate by around ~10ms

perhaps thats why the FPS output reads 61fps instead of 60?

I seen, though Ryan says that it has a better timer resolution than GetTickCount()....Then goes on about other timers.....

In any case, I'm definately bookmarking his research paper on it. Could be useful.

Thing to remember is, I'm rounding that number :P. If I do it in FP notation, then it might be more usable.

yeah i was thinking rounding could also be the reason.

It would be good for ports to different consoles. Small and simple is the best type of emulators to port.

Decisions, decisions.

The emu core is designed for that in mind Plus, it has a nice core interface system. Although, I abstracted it more so my emu has:

* MuNES_GUI.cpp
* MuNES_Core.cpp (has all I/O functionality)
* MuNES_OpenGL.cpp
* Sync_Audio.cpp

Which means, all code is easily laid out in case I open source this in the future.

[mudlord]

Added support for custom pixel filters.

Requires a video card with support for GLSL shaders. Which means, you need basically a DX9 level card.
