Oggom commented 10 years ago

Some notes regarding those bugs:

A.S.P. Air Strike Patrol manipulates the PPU mid-scanline, the only game which seems to do that. This might be able to be solved with a game-specific hack, which is dirty but seems to the only way to fix that without introducing a major speed hit.

Dark Law works fine in Snes9x-next, so it might be a regression that happened some time after 1.52.

Doom is suffering from Super FX emulation issues, it's the only Super FX game where I've noticed broken behavior. I'm not sure what exactly causes this. CATSFC (a fork of Snes9x) does not suffer from this.

Funaki Masakatsu Hybrid Wrestler – Tougi Denshou is fully playable otherwise, so it's not a really big deal.

Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shougi 2 is the only game to use the ST018 chip (actually a ARMv3 processor) which isn't supported in Snes9x.

Mecarobot Golf seems to glitch because of HDMA timing issues.

Secret of Evermore suffers from audio timing issues, which only seem to affect the PAL versions (tested with the UK and German releases). This might be similar to the Earthworm Jim 2 freezes Snes9x was having years ago.

Speedy Gonzales: Los Gatos Bandidos seems to crash because of HDMA timing issues, here's a interesting forum post about this: https://web.archive.org/web/20140726014435/http://board.byuu.org/viewtopic.php?p=12986

Super Pinball - Behind the Mask works fine in Snes9x-next, so it might be a regression that happened some time after 1.52.

ghost commented 10 years ago

Air Strike Patrol: A hack would be difficult and very specific, something we're trying to move away from. The shadow moves, and we can only render a whole scanline at once. (all shadowed or none).

Doom: The C SFX core is what broke this. The ASM version was more accurate. I'm honestly surprised the other SFX games work as well as they do.

The DMA timing throws everything off and causes the audio lockups. The audio cores themselves are very accurate.

Oggom commented 9 years ago

Updated the first post with some recent findings.

DerekTurtleRoe commented 8 years ago

You guys can start a Wiki on this GitHub if @snes9xgit approves. Or it could be documented in a text file in the repository, that would work as well. Doing it in an issue is probably not a good way to do it, however.

Oggom commented 7 years ago

Updated the first post due https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/commit/fe6047213be802cb74cac724a1b83b7263c4dcca

Unfortunately this didn't fix the issue with the Secret of Evermore PAL release. Looks like the problem lies somewhere else here.

ghost commented 6 years ago

this should be on this list https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/issues/250

Oggom commented 6 years ago

Finally found some time to update the list.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Phalanx Randomly freezes on the main menu.

Not random. freezes trying to enter game play mode or attract mode. its very specific.

Oggom commented 6 years ago

Not random. freezes trying to enter game play mode or attract mode. its very specific.

I've successfully been able to play the game several times with no softlocking whatsoever. Freezes happen, but they are not consistent in any way for me.

If you can reproduce consistently you should reply to the corresponding issue https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/issues/206 and explain how and when exactly it happens, what settings you use and what build of the emulator you're using.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Ok I found out why I thought its not random. If you boot Phalanx and fast forware till attract mode will always crash right away. however if you dont fast forward it wont always crash. so I guess its a timing issue.

bearoso commented 6 years ago

Fast forwarding, because you aren't providing any input, is deterministic, so the timing will be the same every time. Thanks for the hint. It'll be useful when I look into this.

ghost commented 6 years ago

I thought it was worth mentioning since the final outcome is always identical. Its a pattern.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Just tested latest Phalanx is fixed!

ghost commented 6 years ago

super off road should be on this list due to difficulty being low due to lack of memory randomization

Uniracers should be on this list as well 2 player mode issue.

Tatsuya79 commented 6 years ago

Phalanx fix also fixed Kat's Run.

ghost commented 6 years ago

for A.S.P. Air Strike Patrol would it be as simple as getting permission from byuu to use his accurate ppu and have snes 9x auto switch to it for this one game?

bearoso commented 6 years ago

No. The PPU is very ingrained into Snes9x, so replacing it would be the equivalent of replacing the whole emulator. It would be easier to make the current one render dot-by-dot.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Would it be possible to make it render dot by dot just for that game and as is for the rest?

ghost commented 6 years ago

looking at this list i wouldnt call top gear "an issue" the "issue" is more like an enhancement.

Super Off-Road and Uniracers have a better reason to be on this list.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Stunt Race FX bug is not present in zsnes. dont know if knowing this might help in any way? If memory serves people that contributed to sfx on znes also did so on snes9x maybe they can compare code? i dunno?

Tatsuya79 commented 6 years ago

Stunt Race FX Garbage graphics on the course selection screen

fixed with https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/commit/044113b0bfad670a3dd3db25638033b098b574b2

Oggom commented 6 years ago

Updated, thanks! I've also added Clayfighter and Psycho Dream to the solved issue list.

Tatsuya79 commented 6 years ago

I noticed the ground stop wobbling in Mecarobot Golf with even a light overclock.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Slight over clock of what?

Tatsuya79 commented 6 years ago

The cycle hack, "Reduce Slowdown" in retroarch.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Oh didn't know that function is there using windows version here. That is the only feature I miss from Zsnes for rtype I would set percent to execute to 150% to eliminate slowdowns during game play. I wish they add this to GUI in win version

ghost commented 6 years ago

https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/commit/f139bf704fa7e36e2dd12f354bed8d9658cf100b

should cure M.A.C.S. simulator.

Mecarobot Golf: The ground “wobbles” during gameplay. Flickering graphics.

Fixed with https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/commit/c61d81269a16ba045bddcc98716b4391ac317184

Mecarobot Golf: The ground “wobbles” during gameplay. Flickering graphics.

Fixed with c61d812

It's better, but not fixed yet.

Tatsuya79 commented 5 years ago

Really? I hardly see any difference with Higan now. I mean it wobbles a bit during a shot animation with both emus (perhaps more on snes9x? can't say for sure).

bearoso commented 5 years ago

It flickers a bit, too. Trust me, it's not quite fixed. We need to allow the extra opcode to execute, but we'll have to find out why that hurts the dragon ball game.

ghost commented 5 years ago

If you mean DBZ: Super Butouden 2 split-screen flicker, I checked bsnes and opcode cycles match snes9x svn. Only deviations I saw is that at 00:ffab irq handler

Both avoid hdma 2114 scroll glitch. And the usual time when hdma transfer shows up in the logs:

Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shogi 2 requires ST018 which is not implemented on snes9x but bsnes can

add joe & mac 2 as not compatible.
