Balance initial value set to "0" rather than "false". "False" is interpreted as 0 when decoded as a float, so there will be no effect here, but this expresses the intended logic better.

Fixed a longstanding bug that caused stereo channels to be flipped incorrectly.
---------------------
r823
Clip scroll fog to viewport, instead of filling entire screen. Fixes fog bug in Daytona credits.

cache variable, without it is unusably slow in debug mode
----------------------
r796
add missing file
----------------------
r795
update vs project files
----------------------
r794
fix output values
----------------------
r793
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.
----------------------
r792
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)
---------------------
r791
custom resolution bug fix
---------------------
r790
SDL1 to SDL2 internal changes
---------------------
r789

Ask that to Bart.
This one's are for windows, and you need Emuloader to make it run nicely.

[JackoHedge]

Nice nice nice

[rad_killer]

The fix of VF3 deserves for an official build! Many thanks!!!

[Bart]

The texture mapping problem plaguing three of the levels (Lau's, Pai's, and Akira's) hasn't yet been solved. If I can find some time, I'd like to look into that further.

[Joaquim Gonçalves]

The Old Man's Head is laughable.
Not possible to fix the widescreen as well?
Even the replay black bars?
Not possible to make playable Magical Truck Adventure?
A wish to try it.

[Bart]

What's wrong with wide screen mode?

What's wrong with wide screen mode?

Hy Bart, long time since I posted here

Widescreen works only with geometry, in the case of the background (clouds, sky etc ...) that seens to be a kind of image bmp or something like that, we have this problem with the bg´s that will not be drawn on the left and right sides.

This issue happens only with games that dont have a skybox done with polygons meches. In the VF3, the bg´s seens to use this kind of aproach using images, or a texture with a fixed aspect ratio.

On the model 2 emu, to get around with this same problem with bmp bg´s tilemaps, elsemi put an option that stretches the bg TileMap using independent settings for each game. In this case, each game has a .lua script file that can be edited.

Daytona USA example:

Code: Select all

Model2_SetStretchBLow(1)   -- Stretch the bg tilemap (sky & clouds) when widescreen

[Bart]

Ah, yes. ElSemi's solution is more complicated than just a per-game setting. The Lua scripts are used to observe the game state and then determine the stretching behavior accordingly. For example, one stretch mode may be used in-game and another for menu sequences. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for each game. If someone would like to add scripting to Supermodel, feel free -- it's an open source project My preference would be something like JavaScript or Python over Lua, provided they perform adequately. But I unfortunately have no plan of doing this myself. Time is too limited as it is. I haven't touched Supermodel since the last SVN commit.
