miscellaneous other things, report anything you find on forum please :)


2005-12-04 build 4 (from 2005-11-29)
Fixed various 2d problems introduced in previous build
Plugin now searches textures-load directory for textures on romopen instead of during runtime (includes filtering via roms.ini)

Fire Electric Pen (J) - missing HUD etc - should be fixed
Ogre Battle 64 - much faster
Dr Mario 64 background should all be OK now
more to add.

*

Note: 2005-11-12 build crashed on load with most games, go straight to 2005-11-13 build please.

1.7.0.3
software buffering is forced again
audio option 'Hardware=1' in settings.cfg

1.7.0.2
change from software to hardware mixing

1.7.0.1
settings integration
uses RomOpen now

-------DIRECTINPUT v1.7 CHANGELOGS-------

1.7.0.12
fixed unicode combobox entry (reported by RadeonUser)
added 'Debug' flag to config to troubleshoot unsupported devices
updated layout and joypad button names
added 'CheckAxis' flag to config for devices that have pressure-sensitive buttons or other special needs

setup function should finally work reliably
default to MemPak selected (was 'none')
other changes.. jabo please fill in


1.7.0.5
deadzone is fixed at 65% while setting keys, should make setting keys more reliable - please report any issues you find with setting keys
better error handling for device reconnection?

1.7.0.4
tweaked layout slightly so its not huge and empty

1.7.0.3
integration with main executable for settings storage and retrieval (settings.ini)

What's New in the Input plugin since v1.6

optimized the response time for the controller plugin. The result is a better overall experience in PJ64 Kaillera (not sure about this, whether there's any real change?)
Setup button - runs through all controls for easy first time config. maybe not final yet.
new controller profile format - now uses ".cp" extension and contains ver number (not compatible with old 1.6 .jsf controller profiles!)
now creates and uses "Controller Profiles" subdir of PJ64 dir - more convenient, and later for us to supply profiles with release (once format has stabilised - and all controls we want to support are supported - hopefully we can start gathering these profile files).

Current issues
some controls not supported (not beta issue - have never been supported)

NOTE: the texture pack selector is working however I need to update the FAQ as I've changed the format of them slightly, instead of a ROMS.INI there is now a pack.xml file that describes the pack, and its required to be inside the pack. When you see new texture packs uploaded they will be compatible with this.

2d texture alignment code redone, many games should be much more accurate (better quality e.g. Zelda title screen with high res textures).
Dr Mario 64 should finally be 100% fixed? also fixed some related issues e.g. South Park Chef's Luv Shack eyes
miscellaneous other things, report anything you find on forum please :)


2005-12-04 build 4 (from 2005-11-29)
Fixed various 2d problems introduced in previous build
Plugin now searches textures-load directory for textures on romopen instead of during runtime (includes filtering via roms.ini)
Added support for jpeg textures (diddy kong pack uses them)
Uses 1.7 hide key for advanced settings

2005-11-29 build 3 (from 2005-11-20)
*

*Fixed dumping of textures with padding (Mario Kart 64 Title)
Added 24-bit PNG transparency*`masking` (for compatibility only, I don't recommend using 24-bit at all, or relying on this masking)
If sprite games were broken they should be fixed now

various games are broken , due to texture loading changes. don't panic, should be fixed soon!


2005-11-20 build 2 (from 2005-11-13)
retexturing changes:

PNG 8-bit alpha texture loading should work properly
texture size for 2d textures should be correct

Fire Electric Pen (J) - missing HUD etc - should be fixed
Ogre Battle 64 - much faster
Dr Mario 64 background should all be OK now
more to add.

*

DIRECTINPUT v1.7 CHANGELOGS

Spoiler:

Code:


1.7.0.12
fixed unicode combobox entry (reported by RadeonUser)
added 'Debug' flag to config to troubleshoot unsupported devices
updated layout and joypad button names
added 'CheckAxis' flag to config for devices that have pressure-sensitive buttons or other special needs

1.7.0.11
upgraded to Direct Input 8
unicode build now
fixed cpu spiking in polling

1.7.0.10
cleanup and small optimization to enumerate devices
keyboard text now comes from system

setup function should finally work reliably
default to MemPak selected (was 'none')
other changes.. jabo please fill in


1.7.0.5
deadzone is fixed at 65% while setting keys, should make setting keys more reliable - please report any issues you find with setting keys
better error handling for device reconnection?

1.7.0.4
tweaked layout slightly so its not huge and empty

1.7.0.3
integration with main executable for settings storage and retrieval (settings.ini)
added a picture of the n64 controller contributed by a kind emutalk member (gotta update credits sometime)
new layout that is condusive to the picture

1.7.0.2
added highlighting display to better show control currently being set

What's New in the Input plugin since v1.6
better collisions handling - if you set a control already set, now just removes previous setting rather than display annoying error msg
optimized the response time for the controller plugin. The result is a better overall experience in PJ64 Kaillera (not sure about this, whether there's any real change?)
Setup button - runs through all controls for easy first time config. maybe not final yet.
new controller profile format - now uses ".cp" extension and contains ver number (not compatible with old 1.6 .jsf controller profiles!)
now creates and uses "Controller Profiles" subdir of PJ64 dir - more convenient, and later for us to supply profiles with release (once format has stabilised - and all controls we want to support are supported - hopefully we can start gathering these profile files).

Current issues
some controls not supported (not beta issue - have never been supported)
