Neogeo CD/街机模拟器Raine发布新版,更新如下:
Raine 0.63.2
Nothing special about this one, a few small fixes, and all the neogeo games except the mahjong games, the quizz, and some bootlegs. Post to the forum if you find some bootlegs would need to be included here.
Also some fixes for popbounc and magdrop2, see the forum for that.
Actually it's a last release, as stable as possible, before trying to switch to sdl2 and break everything !
Raine 0.63.1
The main features of this version are more hack possibilities :
- You can now change the neocd bios or the neogeo bios on the fly, without even rebooting the game. For the neocd bios, if you want to choose a non standard bios, it must be outside any zip file and have a .bin extension. Every bios will be accepted, and they won't be tested for missing features for now, so if it crashes, don't complain !
- Abitlity to change soft dips from within any neogeo or neocd game : just go to the neocd options, choose soft dips, and make your changes. For neocd games, the settings are saved and reloaded automatically in an external file, for neogeo games they are saved in the backup ram. Some settings like "blood color" for metal slug take effect immediately. For neogeo games you can change these settings just after loading the game only if it already has an entry in the backup ram. If not, just start the game a few seconds and the settings will become available. Here is a picture of what you can expect (here from Neo turf masters) :
- Ability to change "debug dips". To change these you need 1st to start the game so the ram is initialized, if you change them before that, your changes will be lost. Changes here are not saved. These are debug dipswitches which were probably available only on the dev machines. Anyway there are some interesting possiblities with some games. See this picture for example (in metal slug 2) :
The list of debug dips come from this site : http://www.neo-geo.com/wiki/inde ... f_Debug_Dipswitches, this page is converted to text in the config directory of raine, don't delete this file, or all the debug dips will appear as "unknown". That's also the case if you load a game without any entry in the file. Some games might have some unknown effects not discovered yet, you can try that if you wish. There is also a "developper mode" setting in the neocd opotions now which might need to be enabled for the debug dips to work (it's rarely the case though).Some games have some notes which will not appear in the debug dips in raine, so it's a good idea to take a look at this page too.
Except these main features, a few more neogeo games, including some big encrypted ones this time, a new experimental way to fight the slowdowns in metal slug 2, a fix for some bad colors in loading animations in neocd in some very specific situations, and a few minor fixes...
Ah also, if some people have raine crashing as soon as they try to run any game, it's very probably because you enabled "data execution prevention", raine needs data execution because of its assembler code which auto modifies itself. To see how to remove this if you have this problem, follow this link : http://windows7themes.net/disabl ... indows-7-vista.html
Raine 0.63.0
Ok, finally here is the beginning of 0.63. For now it doesn't have all the neogeo games yet, but since there are now more than 1000 arcade games emulated, I thought it was enough to make a release (1016 games reported by -gl).
Except that a few fixes went in again, like a better cold boot, yet another improvement for the kof94 neocd "how to fight", memory cards for neogeo get "-neogeo" in their names to avoid to overwrite neocd memcards, the cheat codes were converted from neocd to the arcade version for mslug and mslug2, and a big improvement to speed hacks during raster frames which allows to have them again as a yes/no choice instead of a frequency as in last version.
Also there is a serious fix about corrupted hiscores which can make a game unplayable, in mslug you can start in an empty 1st level with such corrupted hiscores. It shouldn't happen anymore now, but if you have a doubt you can always delete your .hi files from the savedata directory.
I guess thanks go to mer-curious for his bug reports which improve the quality of the emulation, even though some of these reports make me crazy sometimes !
There are some more things planned for 0.63, but I needed a break here !
Ah yes, among the neogeo games added : I thought irrmaze would be too easy with a real mouse instead of a trackball, well try it, and you'll see ! The mouse isn't even too sensitive, it feels perfect, it's just the game which is crazy !
And popbounc refuses to read the mouse, it seems to take only keyboard input for now, I don't know why.
And linux binary uploaded too.
EDIT : and I took the time to update the games section (1000 games is a reason big enough for this). Long time no update, it was about version 0.50.12 and it had about 500 games... ! I uploaded also a lot of new screenshots... The snapshots, big snapshots, and icons are badly outdated, but I'll keep them around anyway...
