Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2013-02-08	Add a Spanish translation.	Boriar

2013-02-08	Add a Dutch translation.	Aeter

2013-02-08	Require one audio buffer to be free again. Otherwise, if the 4 buffers get ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	full, it's already game over, and getAudiobuff becomes NULL for about 400 milliseconds, stopping all emulation.
2013-02-07	Synchronise fractions of a hertz correctly in the audio output timing code ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	to avoid buffer overruns. Buffer overruns pause the game for about half a second.
2013-02-07	Remove remnants of a failed auto-CPU implementation. Changing CPU speeds ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	on-the-fly is just not stable on the DSTwo.
2013-02-07	Stop inlining the regular tile drawing code. That was a micro-optimisation, ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	and this revert brings the code a bit closer to mainline Snes9x.
2013-02-07	Allow the user to be pressing a button when the emulator starts. This allows ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	the Loading screen to disappear, and allows invoking New Game straight away.
2013-02-07	README.md: Add more recent information about frame skipping and fluidity.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-07	EN: Added a German translation. DE: Deutsche Übersetzung hinzugefügt.	SignZ

2013-02-07	De-interleave the ROM using DMA. This helps the more esoteric jumbo memory ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	maps load faster.
2013-02-06	Remove 320 KiB of memory allocations in APU emulation that were completely ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	unused but constantly re-zeroed. Frees up 320 KiB for other uses, and saves ~4 milliseconds at emulator startup, when resetting the APU and when loading a new game.
2013-02-06	gui.c: Require all keys to be released after the B, A or X button or the ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	Touch Screen is pressed. This avoids bringing up, or exiting from, multiple menus if you happen to press something for longer than 1/5 second. The modification does not apply to the directional pad in all menus, or the L and R buttons in file selectors.
2013-02-06	Use key pictograms from Pictochat to display keys for yes/no dialog(ue)s.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-06	Yeah... Despite the audio optimisations, sound still crackles with display ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	double-buffering. Disable that, again.
2013-02-06	When changing languages, quit doing the "Changing language, please wait..." ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	as it only takes a few milliseconds.
2013-02-06	Raise the sound frequency from 22050 Hz to 32000 Hz, which is like the SNES. ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	Use sound interpolation to make it sound even more like the SNES.
2013-02-06	Fix 2 compiler warnings in gui.c.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-06	Quit saving the files so often for nothing; that uses up erase cycles on ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	storage cards! Instead, save them once when the menu that contains the settings that the user changed is exited, IF the settings' values changed, OR once when updating the list of most-recently played games. Automatically save the SRAM in most cases, including game changes. This commit also makes it unnecessary to save the game config of the previous game when loading another, makes it load certain settings correctly, and MAY make it avoid creating a file for a game's settings if the user never changes them from the defaults.
2013-02-06	Reinstate frame skipping options 0 and 1, but keep the new meaning (>= 2 ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	equivalent skip level) for automatic frame skipping. Remove the automatic CPU frequency option, which was making audio emit 0.25 second of silence every so often.
2013-02-06	Allow all audio buffers to get full again before declaring underflow.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-06	Fix the loading screen for a ROM appearing for a split second after the ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	splash screen. Fix uninitialised memory access in Check_LoadArg.
2013-02-06	Make all gamepak loads call LoadGameAndItsData, that way its "Loading" ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	screen, current gamepak variables, game config stuff and so on are all consistent.
2013-02-06	Fix settings not getting loaded with a ROM provided by plugin arguments.	BassAceGold

2013-02-06	Load the game from plug-in launch arguments. Make the CATSFC system ↵	BassAceGold
	directory become the one transferred via arguments in that case.
2013-02-06	Document the auto CPU behavior a bit.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-06	Implement automatic CPU frequency switching, which improves battery life if ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	playing games that don't use all of the MIPS CPU. If all of it is indeed needed, then the game will constantly play at 396 MHz.
2013-02-05	Force both manual and automatic frameskipping to be at or above 2. Resets ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	the default value for all games which previously had this value configured.
2013-02-05	Disable the free space line in the options for the time being. Currently it ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	invokes a recursive directory scan to calculate how much space is used first.
2013-02-05	Change the upper screen updates to be double-buffered. Require that one ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	audio buffer be free (1 out of 4).
2013-02-05	Add include files from BassAceGold's library, release 2 fix 2.2.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-04	Fully integrate BassAceGold's libraries, finally. The README still states ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	that 1.2 is required to overwrite 0.13's stuff; really, 0.13 is needed only for `gcc`. So the sequence goes 0.13's `gcc` -> 1.2 -> BassAceGold's libraries -> make `libds2a.a`. DMA function names changed to match BassAceGold's.
2013-02-04	Merge pull request #30 from derpking/patch-1	Nebuleon Fumika
	Update source/dsp1.cpp
2013-02-04	Release 1.28 after disabling the controller status sync hack.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-03	Update source/dsp1.cpp	derpking
	static const uint16 DSP1ROM[1024] snes9x 1.53 updated the dummy loops
2013-02-03	Release 1.27.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-03	Synchronise the controller status more spread out inside a rendered frame:	Nebuleon Fumika
	* before rendering a background; * before rendering sprites; * while rendering more than 128 samples of audio at once ("Prefer fluid video"); * after every 16 scanlines of CPU execution instead of every 1; * while waiting for an audio buffer to become available; * while killing time between frames with fast-forward disabled. Controller presses and releases are now combined in a DS button bitfield using a shorter 32-bit algorithm. See entry.cpp:NDSSFCAccumulateJoypad and #define ACCUMULATE_JOYPAD in the source. This is still not suitable for playing platformers frame-perfectly, but it's much better than half a second of latency to press or release a button, and one still needs to press buttons a bit more than just light taps. I'd say 50 milliseconds is the latency now. Platformers requiring more precision can be played with frameskip 0. DMA does not require double-buffered displaying, so synchronise the controller more often by disabling double-buffered displaying again.
2013-02-03	Faking out the sound synchronisation with a buffer of silence wasn't necessary.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-03	Write back the data cache before using DMA to draw emulated frames.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-03	Add some forgotten DMA files.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-03	Force waiting for a screen to be transferred (update mode 1) because ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	otherwise the next screen can go into DMA. Use channel 1 instead of channel 5, which must be busy for some reason.
2013-02-03	Fix a name clash between Snes9x's dma.h and the DS2 dma.h by renaming the ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	DS2 dma.h to ds2_dma.h. Add preliminary support for drawing emulated screens with DS2 DMA.
2013-02-03	Whoops. I forgot to replace an instance of ds2_setCPULevel from the ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	experimental branch cherry-pick.
2013-02-03	Add SDK modifications by BassAceGold as of 2011-04-14, as well as modified ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	DMA functions as of 2013-01-29.
2013-02-03	Make it easier to change the "high" and "low" CPU frequencies, as well as to ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	switch to the user's chosen frequency for the game. Conflicts: source/nds/ds2_main.c source/nds/entry.cpp source/nds/gui.c
2013-02-02	Fix an oddity in the sound when returning from a global mute. Fixes music ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	loading in Super Mario World.
2013-02-02	Release 1.26.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-02	Add the experimental branch's files to .gitignore.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-02	Correct overzealous detection of buffer overruns. It was making the sound ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	crackle constantly, like a record player. Most audible with earphones.
2013-02-01	Release 1.25.	Nebuleon Fumika

2013-02-01	Add an option that controls which element should be more fluid, per game: ↵	Nebuleon Fumika
	video or audio. This makes most games playable, but the player can choose to get fluid audio instead of fluid video in sound-test modes or games with epic soundtracks.
