Re: Snes9x 1.54

We're sorry about the Mac port. I no longer have a Mac recent enough to do the update or I would try. If anyone out there with the know-how wants to take up the mantle and bring it up to snuff, you're welcome to do so. I'm also looking at releasing a 1.54.1 version in the near future because of the ...

Re: Bug in Ubuntu 13.10

Thank you all so much for the help. After much dependency chasing I got the above commands to execute properly and unfortunately the same problem still persists. Anyone have any ideas at this point? Are you using the "Recently Used" section like nx1101? Are you actually using the binary y...

Re: Bug in Ubuntu 13.10

Ok. That makes sense. I've never actually seen ROM images show up in the recently used section (probably because the recent menu clears them on stock GTK+). I've committed a fix, and I'll update the PPA.

Same here. Applying this patch to 1.53 fixes the issue for me: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/8908390 Not sure why this fixes the problem. The current folder shouldn't be returning NULL unless ubuntu screwed around with gtk. Is there a difference compiling for gtk 3.0 vs gtk 2.0 with the latest ...

Re: Why do these lines show up at the bottom of the game?

That's leftover garbage on the texture brought into visibility through bilinear filtering. It's a pain, but it's certainly possible to get rid of it. It might be handled in the latest snapshot, but if not, OV2 should be able to fix it.

The GTK3 bugs were fixed a while ago in git, so the "next version" will have support--it just needs to be chosen during compile.

Re: Xscreensaver not being prevented

It worked in the past because I used a different method for resetting the screensaver (xdg-screensaver reset, which does pretty much what is described in the FAQ you linked to). That method had the side-effect of causing hiccups in the video output on some systems, so it was removed. What's left is ...

Re: SPC-700 APU DSP FIR filter

It's actually in the form of a table in the source:

It's much more difficult to edit in this form, so I'm not sure if that's going to help much. :-)

Re: Snes9x 1.5.3 on Debian Wheezy no Sound

Are you running pulseaudio? Try:

Code: Select all

ps ax | grep pulse
and see if anything shows up. Snes9x unix only does OSS audio, which pulseaudio hates. It could also be that your kernel wasn't built with OSS compatibility mode support.

Yep, Camo_Yoshi, it seems this is another patch that requires inaccurate emulation to work.

hossbags2, you can bring this up on byuu.org at this topic: http://board.byuu.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=598

They may or may not be able to help with this.

Re: Support for unplugged / replugged joypads

There's no available portable event system for getting notified when joysticks are connected and disconnected. Instead you have to poll, and doing this in real time causes nasty stalls. The best thing we can do is provide a shortcut, and in the GTK+ version a button or menu option, to repoll the joy...

Re: SNES9x 1.53 Has Bugs

The SNES (and actually most game consoles) lacks a true random number generator, and programmers would make up for it with math seeded with supposed "chaotic" actions, usually user input. If the input leading to the generation point is the same then generally the result will be the same. I...

You would know better than I. Keep in mind that this is an android library, and has been stripped. So it's naturally a little hard to make matches. But if you don't care, then I'll happily drop it!

Re: Mac control mapping issue with chrono trigger

Try temporarily mapping the keys to different sides of the keyboard to reduce the chance the keys are in the same control group. Like:
L -> Z
R -> A
A -> P
for instance. Then hold Z and A and press P.

1.51 would only read .ZST states, it never outputted them, so I doubt it would help. And ZSNES is not competition. (especially considering its development is effectively dead--Snes9x's is just slow) The state format for Snes9x isn't a secret--the code for it is in snapshot.cpp in the source tree. I ...
