Émulation en folie : les derniers émulateurs à tester sur Mac et iOS

4.6.3

Highlights

• QEMU v9.1.2 The backend has been updated to the latest upstream QEMU which brings with it a variety of bug fixes and performance improvements.
• (macOS 15) Nested virtualization for Linux Linux VMs using Apple Virtualization backend on macOS 15 and M3 or newer will now have nested virtualization enabled by default.
• (macOS 15) Total Store Ordering for QEMU VMs using QEMU backend on macOS 15 can now enable TSO (in QEMU settings) at the hypervisor level. When TSO is enabled on a guest operating system that is aware of the system register (i.e. Rosetta for Linux), performance of Intel emulation within the guest can be greatly improved. Note that if the guest kernel supports dynamically toggling TSO, you do not need to enable this.
• (macOS 15) Improved macOS guest support The last window size (including full screen size) will be restored when the guest supports dynamic resolution. Removable drives and shared directories can now be ejected and changed while the macOS VM is running. Copy/paste synchronization between macOS 15 guest and host now works when the guest tools are installed (from the CD icon in the toolbar).

Notes

• (macOS) There is a known issue with macOS 15.0 and 15.0.1 where accesses to files will fail due to permission error. This issue has been resolved with macOS 15.1.
• (macOS) There is a known issue on M4 series of Macs where virtualization fails for macOS guests older than 13.4. The issue should be addressed by Apple in a future update. (#6794)
• There is a known issue (#6332) with Windows 11 24H2 that causes the display to show a black screen or "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)" upon boot. We recommend not upgrading to 24H2 for existing installs and 23H2 for new installs. If you have already upgraded, please follow the workaround described in the linked issue.
• The default CPU for x86_64 emulation and virtualization will now try to match the architecture of your system or the highest architecture that QEMU supports. For example, a 2016 MacBook Pro or newer will now emulate a "Skylake" based processor instead of a generic x86_64 processor. This should improve compatibility and performance of newer operating systems but may cause issues with older operating systems. If you run into issues, you can manually change the CPU model to an older one in the VM's System settings.
• The update to QEMU v9.1.2 will likely introduce other issues and regressions. If you experience any problem (crashes, performance, errors) that was not evident in v4.5.x, please open an issue and provide all the requested information. It would also be helpful if you can provide a reproducible example and note the last version of UTM where it worked properly.

0.272

The end of the year is almost upon us, but before that happens, make sure you try MAME 0.272! We’re very happy to announce that the early SNK game Tangram Q is now supported. This game was never widespread, and working examples are rarer than ever. MAME now gives you the unprecedented opportunity to experience this piece of gaming history. Another obscure system that’s starting to take shape is the Estonian EKTA Juku. This 8-bit educational computer was powered by a Soviet 8080 clone and ran the CP/M-derived EKDOS operating system.

The French Thomson computers have been receiving some attention lately, and software compatibility is starting to improve. Progress on the NEC PC-98 family is still coming along nicely. Our CD-ROM drive emulation has been getting better, which has a positive impact on numerous computers as well as game systems. The Epoch Super Cassette vision also got some nice fixes this month.

Numerous reported issues were fixed in this release, including some long-standing issues that had eluded developers for years. There are lots of new working bootleg arcade games to try out. Several TV games have been promoted to working this month, too.

You can read about all the exciting work that went into this release in the whatsnew.txt file. As always, the source code and 64-bit Windows binary packages are available on the download page.

1.16

 - The iOS port is done, get it on the App Store here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bigpemu/id6737359949 Special thanks to neurocrash for putting so much time into testing the iOS build for me.
- Lots of new interface functionality (including a touch-based interface option), courtesy of the mobile port work. All of this functionality can be accessed through the menu on non-mobile platforms.
- Multi-touch device support has been added for the Windows (x64 and ARM64) platforms, in order to take advantage of the touch interface work done for the mobile ports.
- Added a "Pad Wheel" feature, which can be activated through the input binding system.
- Support for a new BigPImage disc format. BigPImage files can be created from existing images or physical discs through the developer menu. Before anyone asks, CHD support looked problematic for quite a few reasons (mostly pertaining to the likelihood of image-based performance problems and implementation bloat inherent to the format), making this new format a much more optimal choice for the particular needs of this emulator.
- Added stereoscopic rendering support to the AvP script.
- Added a new DOOM script with throttling and music options.
- Added a new turbo/rapid fire script.
- Added a "Factory Reset" option, as a convenient means of resetting the configuration across all categories.
- Added an option to auto-assign new input devices. Devices will not be auto-assigned if they have any existing associations with any Jaguar inputs.
- Fixed an incredible number of bugs, pertaining to both interface and emulation. Because so many fixes have been made to the emulator core in this release, I'm especially interested in finding regression bugs. Please let me know if you experience any issues which don't occur in 1.15.

2.83.0

General

• Windows binaries are now signed with an official certification
• ETLTV Improvements
  ETLTV now supports LUA alongside with many other improvements.
  See the full changelog here
  It has been successfully used to broadcast Nations Cup 2024 matches.
  (A huge thanks to Ryzyk for his amazing efforts on these matters!)
• Added new 'video-pipe' command to pipe game footage to ffmpeg
  Pipes game footage to ffmpeg for video recording.
  If ffmpeg isn't part of your PATH environment variable, the executable must be placed next to the etl binary.

Gameplay

• Fix Flamethrower damage being dependent on 'sv_fps'
  Flamethrower damage was previously dependent on 'sv_fps' and would cause massively more damage beyond 'sv_fps 20'.
  This is now fixed by making the Flamethrower damage independent of 'sv_fps'.
• Smoke Bomb puffs are now deterministic
  Smoke from the Smoke Bomb of Covert Ops would previously flow into random directions on each client, causing situations where the view would be blocked for one client, but not blocked for another client.
  This is now fixed by making Smoke from the Smoke Bomb deterministic and thus equal among all clients.
• Medic's passive heal is now deterministic
  Medics at full health would previously have a random 0-1 second delay before receiving their first passive heal tick.
  They now always receive their first passive heal tick after exactly 1 second, making it deterministic.
• Diagonal medpack/ammopack throws are now possible without immediate self-pickup
  Medics and Field Ops would previously automatically pick up their packs when they throw it at a 45° Angle around them.
  This is now fixed by improved pickup collision detection.
• MG42/Browning automatically attempts to prone on 'weapalt'
  MG42/Browning would previously require proning manually before they could be deployed.
  In order to bypass the need for this extra key action, which could've already been automated by a user binding, deploying an MG42/Browning now automatically tries to prone before deployment, saving a keystroke by default, similar to mortar.
  To opt out set 'cg_weapAltMgAutoProne' to '0' (default: '1')
• Play 'noAmmoSound' when trying to switch to an empty weapon
  Attempting to switch to a weapon which is out of ammo would previously fail without any sound or visual cue.
  The 'noAmmoSound' is now being played as a sound cue (local to the player only).
  To opt out set 'cg_weapSwitchNoAmmoSounds' to '0' (default: '1')
• Disambiguate weapon bank collisions
  This change disambiguates some weapon bank collisions:
  1. A Soldier with SMG Perk having both an SMG and a heavy weapon
  For such cases '2' will now select the SMG, '3' will select the heavy weapon.
  2. A Soldier with SMG Perk having 2 SMGs
  For such cases '2' will now select your team's SMG, '3' will select the other team's SMG.
  To opt out set 'cg_weapBankCollisions' to '1' (default: '0')

Visuals

• Fixed gunFovOffset regression and add ETL Dynamic Fov Offset
  We introduced a regression in a previous release, where first person weapon models accidentally ended up being put too low in relation to the player view.
  We have fixed this regression and introduced a new default ETL Dynamic Fov Offset feature, which now ships defaults that aim to have consistent gun offsets across different 'cg_fov' values.
  These new defaults also aim to ship good default first person weapon visibility and consistency between the same weapon kinds of the 2 teams, while staying true to the original weapon look.
  (e.g. the MP40 now should roughly occupy the same screenspace as the Thompson when reloading)
  This also brings back guns, like the Panzerfaust, more to the forefront when it was accidentally previously cut short, without significantly obstructing visibility.
  To opt out set 'cg_gunFovOffset' to '75' to keep '2.82.1' behavior, or to '90' to go even further back to Vanilla ET behavior (default: '0')
• Tweaked Character Animations
  Character animations have been slightly tweaked and reframed, to better represent playerstate and playeractions and to increase visibility in some instances.
  Death animations have been revamped to allow better visibility.
  Reload animations now better fit the weapon reload duration.
  Jump animations now are able to support animation transition, when they didn't before.
  Deploying/Undeploying an MG42 now plays a character animation.
  Firing animations don't persist despite the player having stopped firing.
  Alongside other small changes.
• Player Float Sprites now follow heads when downed
  Player float sprites, like the revive icon that Medics see for their teammates, now track the head position instead of being placed immediately at a fixed height, which would clip inside the body during the first half of the death animation.
  This new feature does not affect hitboxes and is purely visual.
  To opt out set 'cg_spritesFollowHeads' to '0' (default: '1')
• Tweaked First-Person Weapons
  Weapon animations have been reframed to more accurately reflect the duration of the weaponstate in instances where animations like reload would be interrupted or transition to soon to the IDLE animation despite still reloading.
  Weapon parts have been realigned to reduce graphical glitches, where parts would hover or flick around the screen due to unclean animation frames.
  In some instances models like hands were extended to not reveal clipped length at widescreen or higher 'cg_fovs'.
• Tweak muzzle flash sizes
  Muzzles flashes have been frequently completely disabled (via 'cg_muzzleFlash 0') in the past, as they have been shipped dramatically oversized with little transparency and thus heavily obstructed visibility.
  We now ship a revamped set of default values with much improved visibility so that players are not incentivized to disable them in order to gain an advantage.
  To opt out set 'cg_muzzleFlashOld' to '1' (default: '0')
• Changed 'Geometric Detail' from 'r_lodbias' to 'r_lodscale'
  The 'Geometric Detail' menu option previously made little difference and on highest option still caused needless polygon pop-in on character models
  The underlying CVAR has been changed to better reflect the available options.

HUD

• Various HUD QoL improvement
  Big thanks to the community for all the feedback!
  See the full documentation for details.
• Custom 'hud.dat' is now backed up when upgrading to a new version
• Added Sharp Custom Crosshairs
  A new set of "vectorized"/sharp crosshairs have been added.
  They replace previous crosshair implementations via 'cg_customCrosshair 1-4' and are configurable via a set of 'cg_customCrosshair*' CVARs.
  etl-custom-crosshairs.png
  Depending on player feedback, we plan to further improve them and to eventually wrap a Crosshair Editor around them in the future.
  Documentation on the CVARs
• Hotkeys for navigating limbo
  The limbo menu is now traversable via keyboard hotkeys:
  Team Selection
  1 - Team Axis
  2 - Team Allied
  3 - Spectator
  Class Selection
  e - Engineer
  c - Covert Ops
  f - Field Ops
  m - Medic
  s - Soldier
  Weapon Selection
  TAB - Switch between Primary and Secondary Weapon Panel
  Spacebar - Toggle Weapon Panel
  1-9 - When Weapon Panel is opened, select weapon matching weapon index
  Confirming/Cancelling
  y/z/Return - Confirm (OK)
  Escape - Cancel
• New HUD 'chargebar'/'healthbar' needle
  Both 'chargebar' and 'healthbar' gained a new needle indicator.
  For 'chargebar' the needle indicates how much of the bar will be consumed by a given weapon.
  For 'healthbar' the needle indicates the HP bonus that is granted from the amount of medics in your team.
  To opt out uncheck 'Needle' on 'weaponchargebar'/'healthbar' in HUD Editor
• Add kill assist system to the 'xpgain' component
• Class Limbo Selection now requires confirmation
  Selecting a class in the Limbo menu would previously automatically confirm the loadout.
  In order to be able to look up the availability of weapons (e.g. Panzerfaust) without automatically switching to the class, selecting a class now only takes effect when the loadout is confimed via OK (or one of the new Limbo hotkeys: y/z/Enter).
  To opt out set 'cg_limboClassClickConfirm' to '0' (default: '1')

Important news about the future of Lime3DS

I have some exciting news to share about the future of the project.

You may have seen on Twitter that PabloMK7 recently posted about the discontinuation of his Citra fork in favor of a new project.
I am happy to announce that this new project won't be a solo endeavour, as this new Citra fork is a collaborative effort between both Lime3DS and PabloMK7's fork to create a new, unified project. No longer will development be fragmented between these forks, and instead all progress will be made in a single coordinated effort.

As a result of this, development of Lime3DS will also be discontinued, and development time after the release of the 2119 update will be focused on getting this new project off of the ground.
On release, the new emulator will contain features from both forks, so prior development efforts will not be lost in the transition.

Further details of this new project will be shared in the coming weeks, and we hope you look forward to learning more about it.

Systems

Nintendo - SNES / Super Famicom

• Fix detection of the Sufami Turbo base cartridge (Avoiding serial conflict with Sailor Moon SuperS - Fuwafuwa Panic).
• Fix PowerFest '94 and Campus Challenge '92.
• Add support for games with 256KB of SRAM (Notably used in rom hacks, but these hacks also work on real hardware).
• Add support for the NTT Data Keypad
• Fix SA-1 DMA to BWRAM banks 0x41 and above.

Nintendo - Game Boy Advance

• Improve stop mode emulation, ensuring it only exits once the requested input is registered.
• Improve interrupt timings (latch IE and IF for 1 cycle).
• Add latches to DISPCNT background enable, object enable and force blank; these now correctly take effect after 3 scanlines.
• Improve SIO register handling.
• Fix an off-by-one error with BG mosaic handling.
• Fix an oversight in OBJ mosaic at x=0. Improve OBJ timing: OBJs are now correctly rendered one scanline in advance, and OBJ PRAM access timings are closer to hardware.
• Add a 2-cycle synchronizer and improve halted CPU timings
• Selectively synchronize CPU and APU, allowing for the removal of the compile time 'PERFORMANCE' profile. (Greater accuracy in Release builds with no performance downsides).
• Small improvements to PPU timing.
• Added support for the Pixel Accuracy toggle; significant performance increase when pixel accuracy is disabled.

Nintendo - Nintendo 64

• Remove the 'devertualizeFast' performance optimisation from code block lookups: this was proven to compromise correctness/accuracy.
• Refactor devirtualize to return additional context for memory access, reducing code duplication in-memory operations.
• Use JIT only when running code from i-cache.
• Add support for 40 Winks (Aftermarket).
• Add support for Xeno Crisis (World) (Aftermarket)
• Allow for Pak swapping on Controller Port 1 (You can now change between Controller Pak/Transfer Pak/Rumble Pack at runtime).
• Fix instruction trace debugging when using the recompiler.
• Add support for multi-byte writes to the GDB debugger.
• Use different GDB signals for the various exception types.
• Allow arbitrary and possibly unaligned writes to RDRAM through GDB.
• Add unusual warning when software uses CACHE on uncached addresses
• Refactor JIT to remove an extra function call (instructionEpilogue) per instruction.

Sega - Mega Drive / Genesis / 32X / CD

• Synchronize components more regularly when emulating 32X; this fixes a regression that caused 'Knuckles Chaotix' to be broken in ares v140.
• Add an option to enable the TMSS "Produced by or under license from..." screen.

Other

• Stage resources into the output directory on Linux; allowing running self-compiled builds without running 'make install' first.
• Address some possible uses of uninitialized variables.
• Enable the use of loading higan-style rom folders when using the command line
• Update librashader integration for librashader ABI 2

MacOS fixes

• Display errors from the shader loader in metal, easing debugging of librashader.
• Add bounds checking for table view context menus; fixes a crash when right-clicking beyond the bounds of defined rows in a table.
• Fix an issue where librashader did not function on macOS versions lower than 12 (Monterey) when compiled by CI
