Commit 44280ae on 2025-08-19 by Ian Curtis

    Pixels with alpha always seem to use the clamped light model. This includes
    textures with 1 bit alpha, as they will acquire some alpha after going after
    bilinear filtering. For these textures we only discard them if they are less
    than a specific threshold, but that leaves many opaque pixels that are
    technically opaque but with some alpha. This fixes some corner cases with
    the lighting in daytona.

Commit af45604 on 2025-04-17 by Ian Curtis

    Sega bass fishing is flipping the block culling state multiple times in the
    same frame (in between memory writes). In multi-threaded mode this can cause
    the screen to flash like crazy, so we just sync this state at the start of
    the frame. The state can't cancel a frame that is currently rendering so
    it's probably fine to sync here.

Commit 3c34218 on 2025-04-16 by Ian Curtis

    The real3d gpu can accept data for a new frame whilst rendering the current.
    It copies this data to the start of the low culling ram. Previously we
    staggered the frame to get the writes to fall into the correct frame, but
    doing this meant the tilegen was out of sync with the 3d hardware. Fixing
    this allows us to get the tilegen to draw when it's meant to draw, which
    fixes the missing 2d animations in scud race.

Commit daf0fad on 2025-02-26 by Alexandre Derumier

    sdl: add support for gamecontroller api

    currently, supermodel only implement the sdl joystick api.

    That mean that if we use different controllers, they need to be correctly
    remapped && calibrate each time.

    This patch implement sdl gamecontroller api, through "InputSystem =
    sdlgamepad" config which normalize the mapping && calibration.

    gamecontroller is matching x-input on windows, so the limit is 6 axis (with
    2 separated Z triggers axis), 4 dpad/hats and 16 buttons. (x-input is
    limited to 10buttons).

    0x000800000000000 -> 0x0008000000000000. In addition it checked if the
    remaining frac bits are 0, but due to the IEEE spec these can be used for a
    payload.

    On top, optimize the other fp64 special case testing functions

Commit a6a6cf8 on 2024-10-21 by toxieainc

    properly enable fesetround/fegetround usage according to the C++ spec

    unfortunately, e.g. MSVC ignores this pragma, so use what MSDN suggests in
    that case (GCC and clang may still require -frounding-math for compilation
    of at least this file)

    in addition, do not set fesetround mode once, but just each time before each
    math op that requires it otherwise other Supermodel code may use the wrong
    rounding modes (as it relies by default on it being FE_TONEAREST) note that
    changing the rounding mode is extremely rare, so this will not affect
    Supermodels performance by much

    and fix additional minor issue in ppc_fctiwx

    this fixes #203, maybe other emulation+math precision issues, too

Commit 14585f8 on 2024-09-29 by toxieainc

    improve SuperSleepUntil implementation: 1) as found in lots of experiments
    done for the VPX and PinMAME projects, Sleep() on windows can oversleep for
    over 1ms, especially when doing Sleep(>1) 2) thus loop Sleep(1) and end if
    its less than 2ms 3) in the spin to wait for the rest of the time, insert
    yield(=_mm_pause) or the determined by the Rust devs arm64 equivalent

    this actually gets rid of micro-stutter on my AMD based minipc e.g. in
    Daytona2

    then also use same Sleep() implementation in the network code (to avoid
    potential sideeffects between the 2 implementations)

    - This is so we can draw the raster lines at the correct times. A few games
    (scud) are updating the tilegen mid frame. Currently these effects are
    missing from supermodel. All the efficiency of h/w rendering goes out the
    window when trying to render scan lines.

    Performance improvements The old texture code was being bottle necked by the
    texture reads. We mirrored the real3d texture memory directly, including the
    mipmaps in a single large texture. I *think* most h/w has some sort of
    texture cache for a 2x2 or 4x4 block of pixels for a texture. What we were
    doing was reading the base texture, then reading the mipmap data from a
    totally separate part of the same texture which I can only assume flushed
    this cache. What I did was to create mipmap chains for the texture sheet,
    then copy the mipmap data there. Doing this basically doubles performance.

Commit c039d08 on 2023-12-26 by Ian Curtis

    Add supersampling anti-aliasing Late christmas present. Due to the way alpha
    works on the model3 adding regular anti-aliasing doesn't really work.
    Supersampling is very much a brute force solution, render the scene at a
    higher resolution and mipmap it.

    It's enabled via command line with the -ss option, for example -ss=4 for 4x
    supersampling or by adding Supersampling = 4 in the config file.

    Note non power of two values work as well, so 3 gives a very good balance
    between speed and quality. 8 will make your GPU bleed, since it is
    essentially rendering 64 pixels for every visible pixel on the screen.

    Fix transparency depth testing The two transparency layers, might not be

    effectively blend the pixels. Because the pixels don't overlap they don't
    depth test against each other. We are using separate layers to emulate this,
    so the depth buffer must be saved and restored between the layers.

    Amend the ambient fog logic to be disabled if fog density/start is set to
    zero. This fixes a regression where the sky stops drawing in lost world.

    Rewrite the scroll fog shader slightly. Scroll fog is a 2d layer, it has no
    depth, or can be considered to be drawn at infinity, therefore is not
    effected by the viewport light. The scroll attenatuion value also I think
    attenatutes the scroll fog alpha value. This fixes various effects in
    emergency call ambulance.

Commit a214c6d on 2023-10-22 by Ian Curtis

    Prior scroll fog logic was nearly correct. For scroll fogging to draw it
    needs either a start value or a fog density value, but these can come from a
    different viewport if they have the same colour fog set. This fixes the
    credits in vf3 which sets scroll fog, but it never draws on the original
    hardware.

    For a long time we've had bug reports that in vf3 the background in the
    Dural levels was the wrong colour, it should have been much darker. We
    thought it was again missing scroll fog, but gm_mathew worked out it was
    actually coming from the fogAmbient paramater. Not only does it darken the
    fog, but it also has an effect on the 2d background from the tilegen,
    similar to scroll fog. This also fixes the sky in lemans24.

Commit 79ddc8c on 2023-10-17 by Ian Curtis

    Rewrite the logic for the scoll fog (render buffer clear colour). Each
    viewport can potentially have a scroll fog value so the logic of which value
    to pick wasn't immediately clear. TLDR I think it picks the highest value
    starting from the lowest priority layers. This fixes the sky in daytona
    battle on the edge.

Commit 86d4772 on 2023-10-15 by Ian Curtis

    Scroll fog is like a clear colour for the render target, but can be semi
    transparent as the tilegen layer can be shown underneath. I assumed that
    transprent polys would be drawn to the render target for transparent polys
    but unfortunately the logic does not work. So where else could it be drawn?
    Well with limited memory it must be draw to the buffer for opaque polys,
    which means this render target is also blended.

    Rewrite the renderer a bit to spit out the finished graphics from the 3d
    chip on separate buffers. One buffer is for opaque pixels, and 2 more for
    translucent pixels. Before the frame was composited on the back buffer,
    which meant the tilegen had to have been drawn first. This way the images
    are now totally independant of the tilegen chip so can be drawn as soon as
    the register write 0xC is written to the tilegen.

    Some games update the tilegen after the ping_ping bit has flipped at 66% of
    the frame, so we need to split the tilegen drawing up into two stages to get
    some effects to work. So having the tilegen draw independantly of the 3d
    chip can make this happen.

    matrix is a bit strange, I would assume it would just reset the matrix back
    to identity, instead it seems to just reset the rotation back to identity
    whilst preserving the scale/position.

    Emulate the entire tilegen chip in a GLSL shader. (This is now possible with
    opengl 3+). The tilegen drawing was emulated on the CPU, but was one of the
    most expensive functions in the emulator according to a profiler. On a
    modern GPU it's pretty much free, because a GPU is a massive SIMD monster.

    Tilegen shaders are mapped to uniforms, and the vram and palette are mapped
    to two textures.

    TODO rip out the redundant code in the tilegen class. We don't need to
    pre-calculate palettes anymore. etc

    The tilegen code supports has a start/end line so we can emulate as many
    lines as we want in a chunk, which will come in later as some games update
    the tilegen immediately after the ping_pong bit has flipped ~ 66% of the
    frame.

    The scud rolling start tilegen bug is probably actually a bug in the
    original h/w implementation, that ends up looking correct on original h/w
    but not for us. Need hardware testing to confirm what it's actually doing.

    Prevent "ROLLING START" scrolling glitch in Scud Race There is a quirk of

    Add description of swtrilgy patch from MAME

    Star Wars Trilogy will sometimes write to a JTAG register and then read it
    back to verify it, but this doesn't work correctly with Supermodel's current
    JTAG implementation; it will try again and never succeed, getting stuck in
    an infinite loop. This patch stops the code from branching up and trying the
    write/read cycle again, allowing the subroutine to continue normally.
     We need to implement shift register widths correctly for each JTAG device
    (Mercury, Venus, Earth, etc.) for the unpatched code to work properly...
    right now Supermodel implements one JTAG device with a huge 197-bit data
    shift register

Commit 2560451 on 2022-12-19 by Ian Curtis

    The model 3 (actually model 1,2 and 3) all used some crazy refresh rate of
    57.524hz. If your screen refresh rate is 60hz, supermodel will work fine,
    but really run too fast. Anyway if you create a custom refresh rate,
    supermodel will automatically pick this, and set it when the emulator is in
    fullscreen mode. Apparently this works with most monitors, even cheapo low
    end ones.

    To active set your command line to:
    -res=1920,1080 -vsync -fullscreen -true-hz

    Replace the resolution with whatever your monitor's native resolution is.

Commit 40c8259 on 2022-11-07 by Ian Curtis

    Rewrite the whole project for GL4+. I figured if we removed the limitation
    of a legacy rendering API we could improve things a bit. With GL4+ we can do
    unsigned integer math in the shaders. This allows us to upload a direct copy
    of the real3d texture sheet, and texture directly from this memory given the
    x/y pos and type. This massively simplifies the binding and invalidation
    code. Also the crazy corner cases will work because it essentially works the
    same way as the original hardware.

    The standard triangle render requires gl 4.1 core, so should work on mac.
    The quad renderer runs on 4.5 core. The legacy renderer should still work,
    and when enabled a regular opengl context will be created, which allows
    functions marked depreciated in the core profiles to still work. This will
    only work in windows/linux I think. Apple doesn't support this.

    A GL 4.1 GPU is now the min required spec. Sorry if you have an OLDER gpu.
    GL 4.1 is over 12 years old now.

    This is a big update so I apologise in advance if I accidently broke
    something :]

    Optimize quad rendering by replacing the double computations for the area
    computation with the equivalent shoelace algorithm along with kahans
    algorithm to compute the cross products. In addition pull out the /w to the
    end, which increases precision even more.

    Thus making the result similar to the fp64 version, tested e.g. with harleys
    first person mode (all artifacts still gone as before).

    Improves perf on low end boards (e.g. Intel) dramatically (10fps with harley
    before, now 70 on my laptop), and even on higher end (e.g. NVIDIA laptop,
    quads are now faster than tri pipeline on my laptop).

Commit 7be381c on 2022-06-12 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added configurable refresh rate. Default is 60 but -true-hz on the command
    line enables 57.524 Hz mode, which some players report making Spikeout and
    the timing of combos in VF3 more authentic. The config key is RefreshRate
    and is specified as a floating point value. Should the desire arise,
    arbitrary refresh rates can be set in Supermodel.ini using this key but
    almost no validation of the value is performed. Thanks to forum user trap15
    for the original code and PonMi for advocating for this patch to be
    included.

    When dumping textures, two T1RGB5 texture maps are written: with and without
    contour processing. Contour processing can be disabled per-polygon and some
    textures intended to be used without contour processing contain pixels with
    T=1 that are clearly not supposed to be transparent. We now output
    textures_t1rgb5_contour.bmp and textures_t1rgb5_opaque.bmp.

    PowerPC IRQ line deassertion; DMA only fires interrupts when required

    PowerPC no longer clears its own IRQ line; it is now cleared by the IRQ
    controller when there are no more pending interrupts. Not all games clear
    DMA interrupts so it was necessary to tweak the 53C810 SCSI controller and
    the Real3D DMA interface to only fire interrupts if a certain register is
    correctly set. 53C810 has the documented DIEN (DMA Interrupt Enable)
    register; Real3D DMA seems to use the low bit of the dmaConfig register.

    Also I removed the net IRQ as no games seem to actually use it.

    Skichamp Driveboard error fix.

Commit 08d4735 on 2021-02-18 by SpinDizzy

    Huge refactor of the Driveboard:
    -Separate each possible boards (wheel, joystick, skipad, billboard).
    -Defined a Driveboard type in Games.xml for each games.
    -Due to the refactoring, Driveboard Savestates have changed (a common base
    data + a specific board data are saved).
    -Backwards compatibility with previous save states is maintained.
    -Driveboard rom section is no longer required anymore. This disables
    Driveboard emulation in case the rom is not found.
    -Added Billboard emulation (vf3, vs2, fvipers2, von2). 7 segments and lamps
    Outputs are redirected to Supermodel outputs.
    -Changes project to C++ 17 standard.

Commit 72b2c0e on 2020-09-14 by SpinDizzy

    Fixed a longstanding bug that caused stereo channels to be flipped
    incorrectly. This was due to the initial audio buffer write position being
    aligned to the middle of a 4 byte (2 byte left, 2 byte right) audio sample. 
    In multi-threaded mode, some sort of race condition caused this alignment to
    be fixed until audio playback was temporarily paused (via pausing, loading a
    state, etc.) Audio playback should now be fixed and work consistently in all
    cases.

    chips.
    - Add LegacySoundDSP config option for games with SCSP DSP glitches (ex.
    engine noises in Sega Rally 2, and loud garbage on Bahn's stage in Fighting
    Vipers 2)
    - Renamed SysFPS to "SoundClock" (since raising this appears to adjust the
    sound frequency).

Commit 6f6c98c on 2020-05-11 by Ian Curtis

    The translator map seems to work with paletted colour values too, and the
    result is not clamped. Colours are passed to the GPU as unsigned bytes to
    multiplying by 16 will overflow, so we do the logic in the shader. If we
    passed floats we could skip the shader logic.

Commit e2ad593 on 2020-05-07 by Ian Curtis

    When the translator map is enabled the colour values seem to use 4 bits,
    0-16. Why not 0-31 I don't know. Anyway virtua on is overflowing these
    values for some of the smoke effects. For us the numbers were wrapping
    around. Clamping is enough to fix this. (Thanks model123)

    Sutherland-Hodgeman clipping only works for planar primitives. Scud is

Commit 605dad2 on 2019-12-27 by Ian Curtis

    Fix the sky in harley in first person mode where pixels in the sky are
    culled when they shouldn't be with the quad renderer. Basically we were
    running out of precision in a rare corner case. Doing the maths with double
    precision and casting back to float was enough to fix the issue.

Commit a5858e6 on 2019-12-10 by Ian Curtis

    To calculate the mipmap value the opengl needs to calculate the difference
    in the texture coordinates between adjacent pixels. If there are no adjacent
    pixels the hw may need to spawn invisible fragments outside of the visible
    polygon. Our algorithm was culling these out so the mipamp calculation
    failed for edge pixels. Anyway this fixes quad rendering looking broken with
    the latest nvidia drivers.

    Optimise Games.xml (Krom)

Commit 2e6968f on 2019-11-07 by Ian Curtis

    Thanks to our anonymous contributor who managed to patch a model 3 game and
    run it on real h/w, we were able to obtain some timing values we had been
    long been missing for correct emulation. The h/w polls something called the
    ping_pong bit at start-up to sync the GPU with the CPU. Unfortunately we
    didn't have the correct values and just manually used some per game hacks to
    get games to run. This mostly worked, but some games were writing more or
    less frames than they should have been for a given time period. When the
    ping_pong bit flips at 66% of the frame time, games were writing data for a
    new frame, which meant writes were often straddling 2 separate frames. We
    aren't 100% sure if IRQ2 or the ping_pong bit is vblank. 

Commit 06b43c4 on 2019-11-02 by Ian Curtis

    Ocean hunter in the middle of the game is passing a few matrices with
    FLT_MAX inside them, which blows apart our near/far calculation. The

    render something extremely close to the origin you will also blow apart any
    near/far calc.

    Fixes some overlapping shadows in vf3tb that have different priority layers.
    I assume that was a game bug, but it works on the real h/w.

    -Added support for specifying multiple sections simultaneously in INI

    -Forgetfulness in 763

Commit 864bb36 on 2019-01-16 by Ian Curtis

    Technically backface culling should cull polys when the dot product = 0,
    since when it equals 0 the polys is perpendicular to the camera and thus
    invisible. When you complete sega rally2 (if you can get that far lol) the
    champagne is invisible. The reason is because all the face normals are 0. So
    when multiplied by the model matrix they are still 0 and get culled.
    Tweaking the condition to only cull polys when greater than 0 fixes this,
    and allows these 'bad' polys to render as they do on the model3.

    Sega bass fishing is starting some off the meshes with a shared vertex.
    Without having a previous vertex to share with, the values were just
    uninitialised and junk. The hardware itself seems to hold the value from the
    previous mesh, and sega bass fishing relies on this undefined behaviour to
    function correctly. Storing the cached vertices as member variables instead
    of locally to the function means it holds the values from the last mesh, and
    uses those values instead of random garbage.

    translucent overlapped polys. They are not blended into the frame normally.
    Doing this means the topmost translucent polys only are visible in the
    scene, the equivalent of doing a depth pass first, but without the added
    cost.

    Star wars is the only game to pass unsigned fixed shaded values (per vertex

    Optimise vertex data to cut down on unnecessary copying 

Commit 165926a on 2017-08-29 by Ian Curtis

    Modern hardware does backface culling in window space by calculating the
    face normal for the polygon, then doing a dot product against the view
    vector. The real3d pro-1000 on the other hand passes a pre-calculated face
    normal for each polygon which is used for culling. We were using this face
    normal to rewind the polygons so that regular backface culling would work.
    This worked 99.9% of the time. However this was failing on some models in
    Virtua Striker. The reason was because the pre-calculated face normals being
    passed were actually completely different to the actual face normals for the
    poly (not just inverted like you would expect). This broke our code. The
    solution was to emulate face culling directly in the vertex shader using the
    pre-calculated face normals directly. Only minimally tested this but
    hopefully there are no obvious regressions.

Commit cd59787 on 2017-08-19 by Ian Curtis

    Harry made some important discoveries with regards to fixed shading on the
    model 3 (per vertex poly brightness values). Firstly values are allowed to
    be negative, and they are used as a drop in replacement in the standard
    lighting equation for the normal dot light vector. This quite radically
    changes the brightness in LA Machine guns, but now correctly matches the
    arcade.

Commit 0efd4da on 2017-08-15 by Ian Curtis

    Finish fixed shading for 2.0 hardware. I'm pretty sure it actually works
    identically to step 1.5 hardware. The oddball is LA machine guns where the
    viewport ambient doesn't seem to effect the brightness. But the ambient
    works differently in this game because it uses the unclamped light model.
    Still need to investigate if the diffuse factor effects fixed shading.

Commit b1cc9a6 on 2017-08-15 by Ian Curtis

    With fixed shading, when lighting is disabled, fixed shading appears to be a

Commit 5709ee2 on 2017-08-09 by Ian Curtis

    Sometime ago I managed to work out that specular on the model3 is not real
    specular, and really is just an extension of diffuse lighting. But attempts
    were derailed by corner cases and the fact we were not handling the normals
    correctly. Anyway Harry managed to successfully come up with an algorithm,
    and coefficients that give an almost perfect match to specular on the
    model3, based soley on observations from video footage! He also worked out
    that the lighting on hardware 1.5 onwards appears to be unclamped (ie

Commit b1bd877 on 2017-08-01 by Ian Curtis

    Ski champ for some reason is passing denormalised numbers for the
    modelscale. This is causing a NaN in our shader killing the lighting for
    these models, so we simply skip these, since they are essentially zero
    anyway. Thanks to Harry for finding this bug :)

Commit 9aa3f13 on 2017-07-29 by Ian Curtis

    We were force normalising the result of matrix * normal, which looked
    correct in most cases. But this didn't preserve the scaling of the matrix,
    or the scaling of the model normals which resulted in many over bright
    areas. On it's own this generally worked, but games like Star Wars looked
    quite broken. Harry correctly figured out if you scale these normals by the
    scaling value that is sometimes present in the culling nodes the lighting
    looks correct. Still more work to do to correctly figure out the model3's
    lighting model.

    Clamp the ambient light to a max of 0.75. LA Machine guns seems to use an
    ambient value of 1, which is full bright for everything. But for some reason
    the hardware seems to treat this as ~ 0.75. This fixes various missing
    shading in the game. This doesn't seem to have any negative effects on other
    games I have tested. Clamping in the shader as we might need the full range
    of values for fixed shading.

Commit 9778110 on 2017-06-21 by Ian Curtis

    A second go at fixing the fixed lighting in star wars .. Fixed shading is
    per vertex poly colours. For some reason in star wars they are treated as
    unsigned values instead of signed, like in every other game. These polys are
    all marked with specular enabled, where as in the rest of the games they are
    missing this flag. That's the only difference I can find.

Commit 21836c0 on 2017-04-14 by Ian Curtis

    The real3d has a flag that allows the hw to skip polygons so that they
    aren't rendered. Sega rally2 uses this for the dust effects. Triangles or
    quads that have this flag are junk, and look like random corruption if you
    try to draw them. We assumed polys that shared vertices with these bad
    polygons were also bad. It turns out the last few shared vertices in these
    polys were in fact valid, and thus the entire quad/triangle strip should be
    drawn and not discarded.

    Anyway, as pointed out by HarryTuttle scud actually uses darker mipmaps for

Commit f173c3c on 2017-02-21 by Ian Curtis

    The hardware actually seems to treat the quad primitive as a triangle strip.
    The winding order can actually change between the first and second
    'triangle' inside the quad, leading our code to incorrectly backface cull
    the 2nd triangle. So we must re-calculate the winding order for the 2nd
    triangle. This fixes a massive missing poly in the road in la machine guns,
    probably other games too. The hardware is unaffected by the winding order,
    as it doesn't calculate the poly normal from the vertices directly, instead
    it uses the provided normal in the poly header.

    visual inspection from scud that the first level is exactly 4. The SDK has a
    function that accepts a float input for scale and does this. lod = (1/scale)
    + 0.5. If lod>3 lod = 3. So this is our best guess.

Commit da8b63b on 2016-12-06 by Ian Curtis

    The model3 shares vertices between polygons. But it also seems to do this
    for polygons with different textures. This means the texture coordinate for
    potentially different sizes textures is shared. Currently this was broken
    leading to some corrupted looking textures. The fix is to simply cache the
    old texture coordinates, and recalculate the normalised coordinates in the
    new texture coordinate space.

    Updated game loader to make use of latest changes to config tree: generic
    value types and eliminated pointers

Commit c2f80ce on 2016-08-24 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Support for hex numbers in string to integer conversions (with '0x' prefix)
    and special keywords in string to bool conversions
    (true/false/on/off/yes/no)

Commit f08ad15 on 2016-08-24 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added Util::Stricmp() and small tweak to serialization of Util::Format

Commit 2efe18b on 2016-08-21 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added support for multiple value types in config nodes. Removed Ptr_t and
    ConstPtr_t from public interface, moved config tree builders into their own
    file, and made them pass by reference and value. Exceptions can be thrown
    now on lookup failures. Removed s_empty_node -- failed lookups in []
    operator create a permanent "hidden" child. Updated comment in
    NewConfig.cpp.

Commit 01a6ad1 on 2016-08-19 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added copy constructor and assignment operator using C++11 move semantics

    Config::Node::Add() now supports nested keys (e.g., Add("foo/bar/baz", "0")
    will create three nested config nodes)

Commit 24c3411 on 2016-07-09 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Changed Config::Node::Create() to Add() and added a Set() method (for INI
    semantics). Turned Test_Config.cpp into a proper unit test reporting
    pass/fail for each test.

Commit ff8e9d6 on 2016-05-30 by Ian Curtis

    Check for overflow. Fixes some fade effects

Commit 9a49fef on 2016-05-30 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Legacy engine: fixed texture offsets (VON2 was broken by last commit).
    Texture coordinates are wrapped within the bank first and then the bank can
    be swapped. This also allows the full range of texture coordinate bits to be
    used as specified in the Pro-1000 SDK.

Commit 36074d9 on 2016-05-30 by Ian Curtis

    Y texture offsets are just 5 bits. Texture coordinate wrap around happens in
    the same texture sheet, not into the next one. Fixes various texturing bugs
    in sega rally.

Commit d1f4967 on 2016-05-29 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Legacy engine: Culling node texture Y offset is only 5 bits (fixes Sega
    Rally 2 initials decal)

    games?

Commit 5c1a240 on 2016-05-28 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    New engine: expanded color indices to 12 bits from 11. Added
    PolygonHeader::ColorIndex and SensorColorIndex methods.

Commit 2ef5203 on 2016-05-28 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Forgot to describe one polygon header field in Model.cpp

Commit e4a5c34 on 2016-05-28 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Updated polygon header descriptions

Commit 0ebb8d5 on 2016-05-28 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Legacy engine: Added stencil buffering for layered models and shadows. Not
    as accurate as new engine because stencil buffering is applied per-model
    rather than per-polygon, so the entire model must consist of stencil-tested
    polygons. In practice, though, this seems to work fine.

Commit ce03c13 on 2016-05-28 by Ian Curtis

    Optimise non smooth texture repeat to only effect texture boundaries, rather
    than poly boundaries. Fixes a few ugly artefacts

Commit 661f19b on 2016-05-27 by Ian Curtis

    fix transparency values, values are from 0-32, not 0-16 where the top bit
    disables

Commit 2086b1c on 2016-05-27 by Ian Curtis

    Stencil layered polys, fixes shadow z fighting in some of the games. Other
    games maybe using stipple alpha (yuck), not sure yet.

Commit a0910f9 on 2016-05-25 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Fixed fog in legacy 3D engine. Now computed same as new engine, with 4-bit
    light modifier and corrected fog mixing in shaders.

Commit 6dc35f9 on 2016-05-25 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Updated legacy engine vertex shader to use specular shininess and
    coefficient along with old equation. Still not correct (too strong compared
    to the old method).

Commit 828fd8e on 2016-05-16 by Ian Curtis

    Fog start is apparently the fog value at the viewport (0,0,0) I guess like
    an ambient value. Default value is negative

Commit 9e279a0 on 2016-05-16 by Ian Curtis

    Non luminous polygons seem to be effected by the lightModifier also. API
    seems to have no restriction in this regard, neither does the SDK. The ocean
    hunter requires this for some of the 2d stuff. Light modifier values only
    seem to exist between 0-16, which is strange for 5 bits of precision.
    Possibly top bit disables the effect and lower 4 bits are the value. This
    clearly differs from the SDK, but without this the values come out clearly
    wrong.

Commit c9147bc on 2016-05-14 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    - Removed a stale comment

Commit 897b1ac on 2016-05-14 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Legacy renderer changes:
    - Updated shading model. Unfortunately, it is far from perfect but it seems
    to be the best I can do for now. Not really much of a difference from before
    except that the Scud Race castle is fixed at the expense of the Yosemite
    level in LA Machineguns being too bright.
    - Added lots of notes in the shading code.
    - Passing both specular coefficient and shininess to shader. This will
    probably break specular lighting for now until the shader is updated to use
    the shininess correctly.
    - Color table address in polygon RAM is now obtained from culling nodes as
    they are traversed (found this in the Pro-1000 SDK).

Commit 147faf3 on 2016-05-14 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added palette bit to list of bits to dump for analysis

Commit c4b5b18 on 2016-05-13 by Ian Curtis

    Disable light modifier on fog, seems not to work .. values don't make sense.
    Maybe the model3 doesn't use these.

Commit 43add90 on 2016-05-09 by Ian Curtis

    Fix bad texture seems

Commit 846c9d0 on 2016-05-08 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Reverted stencil mask change. This reintroduces the Scud Race 'ROLLING
    START' bug. Previous 'fix' did not work for Magical Truck Adventure anyway
    and also broke some games (Daytona 2 transmission and course select screen,
    ECA title screen). The stencil mask is not shifted by 16 pixels and I
    suspect that either there is some unknown trick to horizontal scrolling or
    that the behavior is affected by hidden raster timing registers hidden in
    the JTAG interface.

Commit a9095e6 on 2016-05-08 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added a register read handler for tilegen (although nothing seems to benefit
    from it)

Commit 9249eaa on 2016-05-08 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Fixed logic for clearing bottom layer. Added new functions to 2D renderer
    interface. Avoid drawing top and bottom surfaces when no layers are present
    there. Added some comments to tile

Commit 5d04895 on 2016-05-07 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Rewrote 2D renderer and fixed 2D layer priorities, stencil mask clipping
    (Scud Race 'ROLLING START'), and cleaned up code. Unfortunately, the new
    code is about 50% slower, mostly due to the need to perform stencil clipping
    after scrolling.

Commit 69a44a5 on 2016-05-07 by Ian Curtis

Commit 48767b2 on 2016-04-30 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Legacy engine: fixed per-vertex fixed shading to incorporate Ian's findings
    that the intensity value is signed and that fixed shading applies only when
    lighting is enabled

    Using IEmulator interface instead of CModel3 directly

Commit 9baa048 on 2016-04-24 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Changed save state file version (r340 changed Real3D save format, breaking
    compatibility with older states, and states were probably already
    incompatible with 0.2a)

Commit 3bd8e20 on 2016-04-24 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Fixed white space and warnings. Fixed second argument to -dis option in
    cases where other numerical parameters are specified on command line.

Commit 908d979 on 2016-04-22 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Debugger compilation fixed: CBus -> IBus

Commit 2524f2e on 2016-04-11 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Fixed Magical Truck Adventure by emulating VROM texture ports as a FIFO.
    Now, VF3 crashes on Akira's stage (and probably the other stages with
    texture glitches). Other games may be affected, too (not thoroughly tested
    yet).

Commit 7752561 on 2016-04-10 by Bart Trzynadlowski

Commit 7ade3a6 on 2016-04-10 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Magical Truck Adventure expects 0x03 to be returned from MIDI control port
    (thanks, Ville). Game now boots but crashes because VROM texture uploads
    clobber memory for some reason.

Commit 198a469 on 2016-04-10 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Race, Sega Rally 2, LA Machineguns, etc. look correct now, but Fighting
    Vipers 2 shadows are no longer dark enough. Other bugs may exist.

Commit 8835d6f on 2013-11-30 by Nik Henson

    Some updates to Supermodel made at beginning of the year but only now got
    around to checking in (better late than never...):
    - hooked up the remaining controls in Supermodel (except for Magical Truck
    Adventure which does not work at all yet).  The new controls are:
     * InputAnalogJoyTrigger2 and InputAnalogJoyEvent2 for the additional second
    trigger and event buttons that were missing from Star Wars Trilogy,
     * InputRearBrake and InputMusicSelect for the rear brake and music
    selection buttons that were missing from Harley Davidson,
     * InputAnalogGunXXX, InputAnalogTriggerXXX, InputAnalogGunXXX2 and
    InputAnalogTriggerXXX2 for the analogue guns of Ocean Hunter and LA
    Machineguns (NOTE: these controls must be calibrated in the games' service
    menus otherwise they will not work properly.  Also, the alignment of the gun
    cursor does not line up very well with the mouse position at the moment, but
    at least the games are a bit more playable now, although still with numerous
    graphical glitches...)
     * InputSkiXXX for the controls of Ski Champ, making the game playable now.
    - hooked up existing InputViewChange control to Harley Davidson's view
    change button
    - improved the handling of InputGearShiftUp/Down inputs so that they work
    better with the driving games.  With Dirt Devils, ECA, Harley and LeMans
    this means they map directly to the game's own shift up/down controls, while
    with the 4-speed games such as Daytona 2, Scud Racer and Sega Rally 2, they
    simulate the user shifting up and down through the gears
    - added defaults for the new controls to Supermodel.ini
    - other small code tweaks:
     * fix small bug with handling of pos/neg inputs mapping to a control with
    inverted range (0XFF to 0x00) - this was needed to get Ski Champ's X-axis to
    work properly
     * removed Wait method from InputSystem and added to CThread as
    CThread::Sleep instead
     * added FrameTimings struct to hold all frame timings in a single place No
    networking code yet as just haven't had a chance to work on it since initial
    progress at the beginning of the year - am *hoping* might have some time to
    pick it up again over Christmas...


Commit b017b24 on 2012-09-06 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Changed output "Pause" to "pause", as it is spelled in MAME, for MAMEHooker.

Commit 08d347c on 2012-07-24 by Nik Henson

    Small tweak to get to compile under GCC (Unix/MacOS)

Commit a3c15e8 on 2012-07-24 by Nik Henson

    Slight tweak to changes made to sound board synchronisation code in previous
    commit.  The previous change was necessary to ensure no deadlock when
    waiting for sound board thread to exit but it introduced unwanted buffer
    overruns (with the end result being that the sound was often speeded up) so
    have added an extra check in WakeSoundBoardThread to prevent this.


Commit 108ac64 on 2012-07-23 by Nik Henson

    - CModel3::StopThreads was rather gracelessly killing threads while they
    were waiting on their semaphores, which works okay Windows but not on Mac
    OS-X where it was preventing Supermodel from exiting properly.  Hence, have
    instead altered StopThreads to signal to threads that they should exit and
    wait until until they have all done so.  This is much better and is what I
    should have done the first time around had I not been so lazy :-)!
    - Also fixed a small race condition in WakeSoundBoardThread.  Previously if
    it happened to be called just before the sound board thread had finished
    processing a frame's worth of audio but before it had got around to waiting
    on the sync condition variable then the wake notification would be lost.


Commit f1e93bc on 2012-07-16 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    - Fixed Win32 GCC Makefile.
    - Reverted Nik's polygon palette index change in Models.cpp. Subtracting 1
    was breaking Scud Race.
    - Added an explicit typecast in Inputs.cpp, which GCC requires for some
    reason.

Commit 183dca5 on 2012-07-15 by Nik Henson

    Committing various small updates that have been hanging around in my source
    tree for a while now:
    - Added 'crosshairs' command line and config option.
    - Added 'vsync' command line and config option (so far only tested on NVidia
    cards on Windows 7 - other graphics drivers, O/Ss or driver settings may
    simply chose to ignore this).
    - Added fullscreen toggle within game using Alt+Enter key combination.
    - Added framework for lamp outputs and 'outputs' command line and config
    option.  So far only the lamps for driving games are hooked up in the
    emulator (others to be added later).
    - Added an initial outputs implementation for Windows that sends MAMEHooker
    compatible messages (-outputs=win to enable)
    - Fixed fps calculation in Main.cpp that was producing incorrect results and
    so giving the impression that frame throttling wasn't working properly when
    in fact it was.
    - Fixed palette indexed colours as the index was always off by one, causing
    incorrect colours in various games, eg drivers' suits and flashing Start
    sign in Daytona 2.
    - Altered caching of models so that models with palette indexed colours use
    the dynamic cache rather than the static one.  This is so that changes in
    palette indexed colours appear on screen, eg the flashing Start sign on the
    advanced course of Daytona 2 (although currently the START message itself is
    not visible due to other problems with texture decoding).
    - Fixed small bug in TileGen.cpp which meant both palettes were being
    completely recomputed pretty much with every frame.  This was a significant
    performance hit, particularly as palette recomputation is currently being
    done in SyncSnapshots (it should be moved out of here at some point,
    although for now it's no big deal).
    - Made sure all OpenGL objects and resources are deleted in Render2D/3D
    destructors, in particular the deleting of the VBO buffer in
    DestroyModelCache.
    - Made sure that GLSL uniforms are always checked to see if they are bound
    before using them in order to stop unecessary (but harmless) GL errors.
    - Altered the default texture sheet handling to use a single large GL
    texture holding multiple Model3 texture sheets rather than multiple GL
    textures as before (if required, the old behaviour can still be selected
    with the mulisheet fragment shader).  I believe this fixes the disappearing
    crosshairs/corrupt GL state problem which the multisheet fragment shader
    seemed to be triggering somehow.
    - Fixed a bug in debugger which meant memory watches were not triggering
    properly 


Commit ac29fc1 on 2012-07-12 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Somehow John's Build.bat and Clean.bat did not get added in r262. Here they
    are.

Commit 772c94d on 2012-07-12 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    - Committing Nik's timing changes: the PowerPC's DEC and TBR now count at
    the correct rate and time is accurately maintained between calls to the
    emulator. A VBlank bit was identified in the Real3D status register space
    and is now timed. Unfortunately, there are still some problems and not all
    games are perfect, but FV2, VS2, and others are working much better or
    perfectly.
    - Added a new dump of Scud Race Plus (scudp1). Strangely, this one uses an
    MPC106 instead of the MPC105 used by every other Step 1.5 game... 

Commit 3963a7a on 2012-07-12 by John Peterson

    Applied a series of patches by John Peterson:

    - Fixed a printf statement in ConsoleDebugger.cpp.
    - Fixed memory watches not breaking in CPUDebug.h.
    - Added some helpful batch files to the VS2008 directory.
    - Added support for automatic loading of parent ROM sets.

Commit 93b71c8 on 2012-03-31 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Applied Nik's fix for cyclical scene graphs. Improves Harley Davidson, Ski
    Champ, Emergency Call Ambulance, and Ocean Hunter.

Commit 1bce444 on 2012-02-28 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Brought in the near clipping plane for Step 1.5+. Objects close to camera
    are no longer cut-off (e.g., driver arms and steering wheels in cockpit
    views). Note: This change should probably be applied to Step 1.0 as well in
    the future. For now, I am leaving the old distance because Step 1.0
    coordinates need closer investigation. Bringing in the near clipping plane
    extends the view frustum depth and will worsen Z-buffer accuracy. Be on the
    lookout for Z-fighting that did not previously exist.

Commit f9c3b9b on 2012-02-27 by Nik Henson

    DirectInputSystem's initial state wasn't being initialized properly, which
    would sometimes result in invalid input values until keyboard or mouse was
    successfully acquired

Commit 69610ef on 2012-02-25 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added a clear() method to VBORef and removed unsafe memset() clear.

Commit 3b41239 on 2012-02-23 by Nik Henson

    This update fixes (hopefully) the last of the texture upload lags that were
    affecting some games, in particular Daytona 2 and Spikeout. To achieve this
    UploadTextures no longer clears the model cache when called.  Instead the
    cache is kept in-tact (which should help improve cache hits) and all
    textures referenced by models being rendered are (re-)decoded with every
    frame. To help with tracking all the unique texture references contained in
    a model a new class TextureRefs has been added.


Commit aba801e on 2012-02-23 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Byte swapped sample ROMs. This should fix the audio distortion that many
    users noticed. The differences are particularly noticeable in Scud Race and
    Daytona 2.

Commit 16e4fca on 2012-02-23 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Forgot to update to-do list in previous revision. Added a comment to mark
    CRender2D::WriteVRAM() as deprecated.

Commit fcf1d95 on 2012-02-22 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Previous "optimization" contained a mistake and made things worse. Removed
    unnecessary clear of the bottom layer buffer. Now, if there is no bottom
    layer, it will not be displayed at all and glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT) is
    used instead.

Commit c085be5 on 2012-02-20 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Further optimization/simplification of the 2D renderer's main loop.

Commit 453df4f on 2012-02-20 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    - Finished cleaning up and optimizing the 2D renderer.
    - Fixed up color offset register support for new 2D rendering system. Now
    maintains 2 computed palettes for layers A/A' and B/B'.
    - Fixed a minor bug in InitPalette(); VRAM was not being typecast properly.
    - Fixed specular lighting bug that occurred on some OpenGL drivers because
    integers were not being interpreted as floats in the vertex shader.
    - Began to update copyright date in some files.
    - Graphics modules now use the C++-style names for C standard library
    headers (e.g., stdio.h -> cstdio) consistent with the rest of Supermodel.

Commit 0257f1f on 2012-02-17 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Contour processing (discarding of pixels when alpha==0) enabled for A4L4
    texture formats. Improves smoke and fire in Daytona 2.

Commit 5709010 on 2012-02-14 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Default SCSP balance set to 0. Was erroneously set at +50%.

Commit 79d24d4 on 2012-02-14 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    - NOTE: In this revision (possibly earlier), I've started to notice some
    intermittent geometry glitches in Spikeout and slowdown while playing
    certain characters.
    - Added multi-texture fragment shader to repo.
    - Added a multiTexture option (enabled by default) to use multi-texturing to
    decode textures.
    - Added some comments regarding timing to the PowerPC execution loop.

Commit 30130f2 on 2012-02-13 by Nik Henson

    Updated fragment shaders' floating point comparisons and also some knock-on
    changes from SVN revision 246.


Commit 8a4ea64 on 2012-02-13 by Nik Henson

    Added OSD/Video.h to provide OSD-dependent video functionality.  The static
    functions in here get called by Model3.cpp from within the render thread so
    that any OSD related rendering can also be run in parallel for a further
    speed increase. Updated OSD/SDL/Main.cpp to provide the SDL implementations
    of the functions in OSD/Video.h.


Commit 84eb017 on 2012-02-13 by Nik Henson

    Added support for multiple texture sheets (with up to one per Model 3
    texture format) as a rather brute-force way to handle overlapping texture
    formats in the current 3D engine.  This fixes some corrupt textures in
    Daytona 2 and Virtua Striker 2 (and possibly other games) and also offers a
    small speed increase when some scenes load multiple overlapping textures. 
    This feature only enables itself when a compatible shader script is loaded. 
    Since none have been checked in yet this means it is currently disabled.


Commit 35a47bc on 2012-02-11 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added command line options to force windowed mode and to control GPU
    multi-threading.

Commit 1b87401 on 2012-02-10 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added a wide screen hack that can be enabled with the -'wide-screen'
    argument or WideScreen in the config file.

Commit 40a5128 on 2012-02-09 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Tweaked help text slightly.

Commit 09f9bd8 on 2012-02-09 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Fixed left/right stereo channels -- they were reversed by default.

Commit c5d0cb0 on 2012-02-09 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added front/rear speaker balance (actually the master/slave SCSP balance).
    Balance setting is stored in CSoundBoardConfig and can be set on the command
    line (-balance) or config file (Balance). Valid range is 100 (front speaker
    volume doubled, rear muted) to -100. The default is 0, both sets at full
    volume. Balance is applied in the SCSP core before overall sound and music
    volume settings.

Commit 6814ef1 on 2012-02-06 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added preliminary specular lighting to shaders. The "no spotlight" shader
    has not yet been updated.

Commit 9fc0d7b on 2012-02-01 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Updated some comments regarding the VF3 ROM patches. It seems many of them
    are no longer necessary. The single necessary patch affects timing (note how
    the warning screen stays up longer when it is removed). This needs to be
    investigated -- perhaps it can lead to a timing fix for vf3, vs2, and
    fvipers2?

Commit 0fcb968 on 2012-01-27 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Documented the tile generator.

Commit 8a8609f on 2012-01-27 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    - Added specular highlight support to the 3D engine. A shininess parameter
    is now be passed to the shaders. Does not work correctly and I will save the
    shaders themselves for a future commit.
    - Added support for layer priorities. Highly unoptimal! This absolutely
    needs to be polished up before any release (and properly documented). For
    now, priorities in the popular games seem to be fixed but not all possible
    priority settings have been figured out yet.

Commit c38ec7d on 2012-01-26 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Removed unused dirty rectangle code.

Commit e00a372 on 2012-01-26 by Bart Trzynadlowski

Commit 3315fb4 on 2012-01-22 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Small correction to lighting model in shaders. Light intensity is no longer
    clipped.

Commit b57ba51 on 2012-01-18 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Removed unused (and non-functional) 'stack machine' scene graph traversal.

Commit 4c7fe2f on 2012-01-18 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    MinGW Makefile now uses cmd prompt commands, not UNIX/msys.

Commit 1d64fc2 on 2012-01-18 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Added a MinGW Makefile for users of GCC on Windows.

Commit dd4a132 on 2012-01-18 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Removed deprecated, unused Turbo68K stuff.

Commit 611ef43 on 2012-01-18 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Now compiles with MinGW. Among other things, the use of __uuidof() was
    removed.

Commit d1d5175 on 2012-01-16 by Nik Henson

    New multi-threaded rendering changes that parallelise graphics rendering and
    PPC execution in order to increase performance on multi-core machines. New
    gpuMultiThreaded config option to enable/disable multi-threaded rendering
    (enabled by default, disabling it reverts to previous behaviour). Other
    rendering optimisations:
    - texture uploads now only affect appropriate region in the texture sheet,
    rather than uploading the whole sheet each time
    - performance of clearing the model caches has been improved New Alt+O key
    input added to toggle outputting of frame timings for debugging purposes.


Commit 0835e38 on 2012-01-16 by Nik Henson

    Removed unecessary SDL include


Commit a1a9939 on 2012-01-16 by Nik Henson

    Added missing shader source files into VS2008 project (not needed for build,
    just for reference)


Commit b7242d2 on 2012-01-16 by Nik Henson

    Added CThread::Sleep && CThread::GetTicks methods


Commit 6703601 on 2012-01-02 by Nik Henson

    to be referenced at end of linker options)

Commit bdf11c7 on 2011-12-26 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Preliminary backface culling fix. Matrices which effectively change the
    polygon winding without changing the Z component of the polygon normal are
    tested for when appending items to the display list. If necessary, the
    polygon winding is changed on the fly to ensure visibility is correct. This
    code desperately needs to be optimized. Note: Not yet thoroughly tested.

Commit a71af94 on 2011-12-23 by Bart Trzynadlowski

    Fixed ROM banking -- appears to fix the sounds in Daytona 2 PE and VON2 but
    otherwise has not been extensively tested. The high 8MB of the 68K address
    is treated as a single window into the 16MB sample ROM, and can point either
    to the low or high 8MB bank.

    Changes to Supermodel VS2008 solution to ensure it will now build completely
    from scratch:

    code to be present in Libraries directory)
    - moved Musashi68K into its own directory
    - tidied up some config options

    Added separate Musashi68K project that compiles and runs m68kmake to build
    required Musashi68K file. Updated solution so that with above change it will
    now build Supermodel completely from scratch.


Commit e6fd2e2 on 2011-10-02 by Nik Henson

    Added DirectInputConstForceLeftMax and DirectInputConstForceRightMax options
    to allow different force feedback strengths in each direction. 
    DirectInputConstForceMax still works as before but these new options will
    override it for the given direction if they are specified.
