ZSNES board

If the game uses SRAM and ZSNES doesn't find a SRM file, a new one is automatically created. If the game has a battery and ZSNES doesn't find an SRM file a new one is automatically created. Mmh, I thought that's the same. :? Not all static ram data is preserved via a battery. In other words, some g...

So whever someone requests a new feature they must implicitly state that it can be toggled? You're the one being ignorant. This has become humorous. You either didn't read or didn't understand my post, as I did not implicate nor declare anyone as ignorant. If you truly understood what it takes to s...

1a. Water still travels too fast. By what criteria do we judge "too fast"? Be objective. Capture a real-time movie of the effect and publish it on the web. In all likelihood, there is no bug here. Just a malformed opinion -- the water effect was designed to animate "faster" than...

You sir, need to look up the word toggle in a dictionary. Where did you mention the introduction of a toggle or option? All one sees is the request for a behavior change without any regard for the original functionality. Implying ignorance on the part of other readers as a result of your own ambigu...

I'm a PC newbie so i'd like to ask:Does that stuff degrade on all PC's? Like because of age? If one is talking in practical terms, no. Assuming the paste was applied correctly the first time, it's relatively uncommon for it to fail during the lifetime of a normally operating system. Generally, the ...

That was probably the one, however, I am having some difficulties running the program. I downloaded this extension for winamp and when I try a nd play the files nothing happens. Here is the one I downloaded, http://www.alpha-ii.com/Download/Main.html#SNESAmp any ideas? "in_snes.dll" and &...

ZSNES is set to low priority during the GUI loop. It runs at normal priority during actual emulation.

You should post what your actual issue is. I doubt it has anything to do with the priority of the zsnes process.

I haven't changed anything recently, and I thought it was some sort of virus but I scanned and came up with nothing. However, I am using an outdated Norton Virus Scanner. I need to get a better one but i don't have the $$$. So, it might be a virus of some kind.. If you're looking for a virus scanne...

Try upgrading your Direct X version to 9.0c. And is there a reason not to upgrade to SP2? Not a good one. However, some people are adamant about using the same version of a piece of software for long periods of time. I've argued against this before -- new features aren't the only reason (nor necess...

I can't understand why rlbond tries to contradict facts that Nach has pointed out multiple times in the past. That one thread was even in direct response to his own misinformation. Yeah, but until SNES emus get multi-archive file pickers, it's not much use. Conserves space for your ROM collection. H...

yes, but currently jma works only with snes roms and only one rom per jma file, please correct me if I am wrong. Both of these statements are inaccurate. 1.) As Nightcrawler mentioned, JMA is applicable to any data -- just as with any other compression format. It may prove most effective on SNES ro...

There's .html and .jpeg. Appears to work fine, but then again there might be situations where it doesn't, as .htm and .jpg seem to be favoured most of the time. Convention. Long filenames have allowed "expanded" extensions on Windows for quite a long time now. You may use "image.join...

As if this custom GUI were not already complicated enough, now it needs a full Unicode bitmap font. All hope is lost. :D That might be resolvable by rendering all the required glyphs out of an existing truetype/postscript font. There are, of course, certain prerequisites for such a process to work....

What's Qt's perfomance like under Windows? I use Xchat under Windows (which uses GTK), and I don't mind telling you its performance is SHIT. A 500 Mhz computer can barely run it. Try KVIrc. It's a Qt application and the devs regularly release windows binaries. Several minutes was all it took for me...

rlbond and Nach seem to be going back and forth on questioning what relative paths should be relative to. Personally, I see absolutely no use in having relative paths to the current working directory (regardless of what method zsnes uses to determine that). rlbond's argument is for paths relative to...

Go with Qt. For all the claims that Qt is bloated, there is little evidence to support it. Qt does take longer to compile than GTK2 with the GNU compiler collection, but there's a more significant reason for that. Qt is primarily C++, and GTK is primarily C. Comparing their compilation times (which ...

I'd reason that since light covers any small distance instantaneously, distance is not a major factor in acuity of perception so long as the size of the observed object compared to the field of vision is consistent . To use the movie/TV example, the movie screen may be much more distant, but it is a...

Holy crap, that's some weird garbage out in space there. I get some odd, random color garbage on occasion, but nothing so organized as that. And it never flickers...it's quite static for me. Bringing up the GUI's menu with escape and then returning to the game refreshes the whole screen, including t...

Not really a relevant thread to post it in, but... Profile -> Link to Off-site Avatar -> Enter URL You either need webhosting, or a server that you've setup yourself. Don't try linking to local files (I always get a decent laugh at that); they need to be uploaded to a remote system which successfull...

ipher's generally the one to do the GUI updates, from what I can tell. Perhaps you should propose it to him directly...? I think that particular option would be slightly more intuitive there. The "Open ROM" dialog is already somewhat full though. It's the unfortunate case of fixed width fo...

I can't say I care about trying to write things so old versions can use new states though, it's more cruft than it's worth. As a matter of programming philosopy, I'd have to agree there. Backwards compatibility is one thing, and it's well and good for a while (until there comes a time when you need...
