+MrFish Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) Does anybody still use the ProSystem Emulator? I released the emulator 3 years ago and meant to update several times but I got to busy with life. I've been toying around with releasing a new version (version 2.0) that worked with SDL and/or Java (using JNI and C++ core). I would like to add some new features but wanted to know if people are interested, how much they use the emulator (if at all), and what features and/or bug fixes they would like to see? I've been out of the emulator scene for a while and it seems to have died down. Cheers, Greg Stanton I don't Mess with MESS... Features to add... hmmm... Dolby 6.1 support for TIA sounds I use ProSystem every time I play 7800 games... a sound product. I would definitely like to see an update.

iratanam Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Yep Prosystem def needs an update, been tinkering with the source myself, but nothing major yet, mainly cause I aint a programmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxd Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 For some reason ProSystem Emulator hates the computer that is in my mame cabinet. It runs all the games way too slow. I know it isn't a killer PC but it runs MAME fine and my Nes, Super Nintendo, SMS and Genisis emu's fine also. But ProSystem runs terrible....

Trebor Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Hey Greg, I hope you're still considering updating your emulator. There are two more things I would love to see fixed with it: 1. If you launch a ROM from the command line the sound is a second or two behind the action, regardless of the sound latency setting. This is fixed by hitting 'Tab' bringing up the menu bar (And then hit 'Tab' again to get rid of it). However, it would be nice for the sound to be in sync when launching from a command line without the need of bringing up the file bar menu. 2. The default palette is updated to Underball's latest palette. It is the best palette available with Hex values taken directly from a 7800. The palette and source is here: http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=128755 Thanks, Trebor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Greg, I hope you are still looking into updating your emulator. One other thing concerning it I noticed is the sound "glitches" which appear in some games can be cleared by setting the sample rate to 96000. Unfortunately, everytime you exit and relaunch Prosystem it returns back to its default setting of 44100. I wish you well, and here's to hoping we see a new version of Prosystem soon! -Trebor P.S. Indeed, it still receives much use by the community! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonis Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 It is my first experience with source codes C ++, therefore do not judge too strictly. All has begun 2 weeks ago when I began to study emulators Atari 7800. ProSystem it has appeared the best, but had a huge lack - it was inconvenient to do screenshots. The letter to the author of the emulator remains without the answer, and I decide make changes. In parallel I have started to find defects in the emulator, and, whenever possible, to correct them. Thanks inhabitants of forum AtariAge that have specified in other errors in the emulator. The list of changes: Modified snapshot engine Take screenshots by press F12 without any prompt (in style MESS) Insignificant changes in main menu Moved all texts in resource (for future translations) Has put check on attempt to load CC2 hack's (in log file registers "ProSystem do not want to execute CC2 hacks.") The default palette is updated to Underball's latest palette. It is the best palette available with Hex values taken directly from a 7800. A little optimisation in logging messages Documentation updated "Unfortunately, everytime you exit and relaunch Prosystem it returns back to its default setting of 44100." - Fixed Command line "-SampleRate" - Fixed "If you launch a ROM from the command line the sound is a second or two behind the action, regardless of the sound latency setting." - Fixed This release - only attempt to make addition in the best emulator Atari 7800. I hope that Greg Stanton, before release of version 2.0, will take advantage of the completions maded by me.

Gorf Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 If you could add a new custom version cart with a pokey and 8k a ram that would be awsome. Then I could test my ram buffer theory. I'd logically Map the POKEY in the last 16 bytes of the 8k ram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Fantastic, Leonis. Thanks for sharing. I performed a clean install of the emulator. It's great to see the sample rate remaining at the 96000 value when exiting as well as the default palette utilizing Underball's latest work. Unfortunately, the issue respecting... "If you launch a ROM from the command line the sound is a second or two behind the action, regardless of the sound latency setting." ...Still appears to be present. A quick way to fix this is toggling the menu ('Esc' default key mapping), which then causes the sound to sync with the video. When I launch a game from command line, the settings are full screen, 1024x768 resolution, strectch is turned on. Latency is set to Very Low and 96000 rate. However, the latency setting and rate value can be different, but the sound latency issue still exists. -Trebor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacManPlus Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Thank you for the update to my favorite emulator. I only have one request myself: ... High Score Cart support!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonis Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I spend 2 hours, finding solution with wrong LATENCY when starting emulator from command line and have not any idea why the emulator so carries on itself. Attempts compulsorily to force the program to change LATENCY in what have not resulted... As to emulation questions - I at least should know Atari 7800 architecture well. Alas, time for studying is not present and is not expected... We will wait for the official version of the emulator from the developer.

I updated the ProSystem web page to include your new bits. I'm currently working on version 2, but it is going slowly. The plan is to incorporate all the updates made to version 1.0 and add more functionality including Linux/Mac support to the newer version. Enhancement requests are welcome.

Shannon Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 HSC support oughta be easy to add. My suggesion, though, would be to load/save the HSC memory seperately on load and exit of a game. And not to save it with the save states cause that can create issues with losing high scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
