c4842fb700 [Core/CDD] added compiler define option to disallow opening multiple .ogg files at the same time for platforms with limited RAM (fixes memory crash on Gamecube when using too many .ogg files) 2013-07-14 17:05:44 +02:00

c32af0586a [Core/SCD]
.fixed SEEK command emulation (Lunar the Silver Star freeze regression)
.added .OGG files support for CD audio tracks (use same naming convention as
.WAV files, cf. README.pdf)

[Win32]
removed win32/SDL port makefile to prevent stupid websites like EmuCR from
compiling & distributing it (for the last time, it's a buggy, unstable &
incomplete port which is not meant to be used for anything but debugging)

----------
* added Mega CD / Sega CD hardware emulation (incl. Sub 68K, CDD, CDC, PCM, GFX
rotation/scaling, etc)
* added .ISO & .BIN CD image file support
* added 512K backup cartridge RAM support
* added savestate support for CD games

NOTES:
~~~~~~
* to play CD games, original BIOS ROM files are required in /genplus/bios/
directory: unzip & rename them to bios_CD_U.bin, bios_CD_E.bin, bios_CD_J.bin
* CD audio tracks (CD-DA) are not supported (yet)

[Core/CPU]
----------
* modified 68k core for Mega CD / Sega CD support

[Core/VDP]
---------------
* improved DMA accuracy
* added support for 8-bit VRAM writes with undocumented code value (verified on
real hardware by Nemesis)

[Gamecube/Wii]
---------------
* modified Master System & Game Gear "BIOS" support (files should be named
bios_U.sms, bios_J.sms, bios_E.sms & bios.gg and copied to /genplus/bios
directory).
* replaced "Hard Reset" button by a Soft Reset for systems having a Reset button
(Mega Drive / Genesis & Master System)
* State & SRAM files are now only compressed when saving to Gamecube Memory
Cards
* various fixes & cleanup.
