Sega Model 3 UI

Post by Nuexzz »

(Backup) Thu Apr 04, 2019 12:58 am

with the authorization of Bart Trzynadlowski I present my humble UI for supermodel updated with the new options of the latest svn, many things to improve maybe you have.
the interesting thing is that you select the folder of roms and you play!

Sega Model 3 UI - by Nuexzz (c) 2019 Nuexzz@gmail.com
-----------------------------------------------------------
Features
-----------------------------------------------------------
Added - list view of all the supported games
Added - preview of each game (snaps).
Added - button of the roms directories.
Added - check Load button (Load Rom)
Added - all video options
Added - all sound options
Added - all control options (for the time being it uses the supermodel configurator (accurate and will never fail)
Added - system link options (preliminary) will only work with the only version created by Spindizzi

-----------------------------------------------------------

Priorities for future versions

Add - a new window for controls and remapping from there
add - individual configuration for each game

-----------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 05-04-2019

Fixed some problems with the list of games to not match all of the games.xml
-----------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 12/04/19

-Has been added to the frontend the possibility that the same check the file games.xml.De this way whenever they add, modify or remove roms to the file, the frontend automatically to be able to read the file will update the list of roms to use .

-If the UI does not find the nvram folder, it will create the folder itself so that certain configurations of the ROMs that we use are saved correctly.

-If the UI does not find the saves folder, it will also create the above automatically.

-Fixed a bug with the snapshots since if any of them were missing then the images did not come out correctly.

-The custom resolution option has been added allowing us to choose the output resolution without being prefixed in the UI.

-Added a new icon thanks to Hipnosis (collaborator of insertmorecoins.es) that has lent its help so that the UI has a new modernized icon.

-Added dialogue box has been added informing us of the loading of the games.

-Added the option to hide the window by command line when loading games leaving a cleaner load in the eyes of users.



Special thanks for some tests and tuning my friends

So happy to see you again.

I should take some time to add new feature in the UI codes.
Wish I can start working on it in 2024 Q1/Q2 ? Haha.

Thank you for this frontend. Is there any way to change the background color (dark, dark gray or dark blue)?

This doesn't work so well with the latest Supermodel version, where the PowerPC frequency is automatically set based on the board stepping.

Because now the PowerPCFrequency entry in the Supermodel.ini needs to either be set to 0 or deleted for the automatic frequency to work, but this UI will always add PowerPCFrequency back to the .ini file if it has been delated, and it sets it to 49. It also wont allow a setting of 0 and will change it to 1.

If this ever gets updated again and isn't abandoned like all frontends for this emulator, then it would also be nice to see a setting for the new supersampling option (2x to 8x SS in increments of 1).

Also consider putting this on GitHub or something, so others can add to it.

My suggestion:

1. remove the PowerPCFrequency entry and save Supermodel.ini
2. write-protect this file

Is that a solution?

I leave something here a little hastily... the ppc will always be "0" if you want to modify for a game well, keep in mind that when you reopen the GUI it will be "0" again (is this idea okay for the moment? )
