Thanks for the files. Uploaded to SVN.

Was poking around the source and found an else if statement which I promptly transformed into a nicer switch statement. ;D

Thanks, I applied your RTC emulation patch to the current source.

Two more, heh.

@Spacey
You broke full screen with your menu 'fix'

when you go full screen the black bar where the menu is supposed to be is still there forcing the entire screen down.

What render mode? What resolution?

Squall-Leonhart · December 13th, 2007, 03:10

OpenGL, resolution doesn't matter.

also,
can we get some consistancy with the render modes?

the ShowSpeed should be either Blue in both modes, or Red (which is easier to read on most games) and there should be a way to set where we want it positioned on the screen. (incase it overlaps other games)

Yes, we can get consistancy. Might need to work more on these.

Also, new SVN build will be uploaded today. Includes:

* No longer requires GLEW32.DLL
* Supports video compression (no support for YUV yet)
* Buffer selection in OpenAL audio driver
* GLSL shaders should support samplers now, as well as a uniform constant for monochrome colours
* Now sound pauses when moving window properly
* Improved DirectSound output driver
* Improved debugging build speed by 20%
* Optimized texture copying

..and loads other updates which I forgot.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Further info:

- Recorded AVI misses something that keeps audio/video in sync when playing it back in a media player, so when I create CPU load while playing back, A/V gets async. Maybe the old Video for Windows API is just bad?

- Missing support for YUV output to video encoder results in some codecs not working (DivX, MS MPEG, ...). However, ffdshow works perfectly fine, because it supports RGB16/24 input.

- When VBA runs in 16bit mode, AVIs will be recorded in 16bit colors which reduces the size of uncompressed video streams. Of course the best way would be to let the user chose, the only advantage is that it reduces CPU overhead when recording in 16bit.

- New sound pauses have been added, but when the user clicks the MainWindow non-client area, sound will still get asynchronous because I have not found a way to handle this window message. Maybe MFC is bad?

- Texture copying (for D3D & DDraw) was not really optimized, I just found out that the current (my old) assembler code was as fast as the pure C code, so I just deleted the assembler and rewrote the routines a bit. Well, maybe I got a little speed improvement, but nothing major.

aww, logging still not working in the release builds

mudlord · January 1st, 2008, 11:28

It should be now.

SVN build uploaded. Has hardware motion blur and Jonas's GBA graphics core optimizations.

GameboySP9000 · October 7th, 2008, 23:56

Can we get that new build of VBA-H (hackers edition)

Squall-Leonhart · October 8th, 2008, 01:19

unless you plan on working on VBA-M with the guys, don't post to this thread.

aLoneKei · December 22nd, 2008, 22:12

i would like to be a tester.
i know C 'n' C++.
I use Xp and Linux, but i can test in x64.

Squall-Leonhart · December 23rd, 2008, 01:34

anyone can test, same as with pcsx2 and dolphin.

aLoneKei · December 24th, 2008, 06:26

so i only goin' to post bugs?
ok.

Ethereal · October 29th, 2009, 21:01

I have some experience in php, and people say C++ and php have similar syntax.

I would love to help and improve my programming skills.

PM me with more information. Even better: send me an e-mail.

Thanks

This place looks a bit dead, but I'm going to try anyway.

I have good C++ programming knowledge but no experience on any project bigger than simple programs, I would really love to join the team to help and to learn more.
