Added menus for controlling toggle inputs, and showing recognised input
devices and control state. Moved input menu options off main menu to a
submenu, as there are a lot of them now.
Moved menu heading drawing into base class, added headings to more
menus, and made headings more consistent with the menu items used to
reach them. Also made terminology more consistent.
Changed the default names for buttons and hat switches/D-pads to use
1-based numbering. DirectInput still returns 0-based button numbers for
some devices.
Removed local copy of MinGW xaudio2.h as it’s now included in the MSYS2
package. Also fixed building the DirectSound sound output module with
the SDL OSD on Windows - the Windows headers are sensitive to include
order.
Started adding documentation for menus, to hopefully help people find
menus they remember seeing but can't recall how to access.
For translators, this makes terminology more consistent. In particular:
* "Settings" is preferred over "configuration" in a number of places, as
the latter can be construed as referring specifically to settings
stored in .cfg files in the cfg_directory folder. Also, references to
saving machine configuration could be interpreted as relating to the
settings on the "Machine Configuration" menu.
* The controls on host input devices (e.g. keys, buttons, joystick axes)
are referred to as "controls", while emulated inputs are referred to
as "inputs".
* The menus for assigning host controls to emulated inputs are called
"input assignments" menus to distinguish them from other input
settings menus.
* Combinations of controls that can be assigned to emulated inputs are
referred to as "combinations" rather than "sequences".
* The potentially confusing term "ROM set" has been removed altogether.
Use "short name" to refer to a device or system's identifier.
* "System" is used in almost places to refer to a complete, runnable
system rather than "Machine".
* "Driver" is now only used to refer to source files where systems or
devices are defined - it is no longer used to refer to individual
systems.
* A few more menus have message context for the messages. This makes it
a bit easier to guess where the messages are used. It also means you
can use different translations in different places if necessary (e.g.
if the same English text should be translated differently as an item
in one menu and as a heading in another).
* If an input is configured to some combination of controls that are not
present at all, ignore the setting altogether for the session.
* Fixed relative axes with PORT_RESET not responding to absolute
controls (MT07685).
* Fixed relative axes not responding to an absolute control if the value
doesn’t change every frame (eg. holding a stick against the stop).
* Changed the scaling for absolute controls assigned to relative axes to
make defaults more sane (e.g. arkanoid or spdheat with a joystick).
-frontend: Fixed some localisation issues in Analog Controls menu.
-docs: Added documentation on assigning inputs.
* Moved common code for drawing about box, info viewer, and other text box menus to a base class; removed the last of the info viewer logic and the multi-line item hack from the base menu class.
* Added previous/next group navigation for general inputs and plugin input selection menus.
* Moved message catalog logic to lib/util, allowing osd and emu to use localised messages.
* Made the base menu class use the UI manager’s feature for holding session state rather than a static map and mutex.
* Improved menu event handling model, and fixed many issues, particularly with menus behaving badly when hidden/shown.
* Added better support for menus that don’t participate in the usual menu stack, like the menuless sliders and the save/load state menus.
* Made a number of menus refresh state when being shown after being hidden (fixes MT08121 among other issues).
* Fixed indication of mounted slot option in the slot option details menu.
* Improved appearance of background menus when emulation isn't running - draw all menus in the stack, and darken the background menus to make the edges of the active menu clearer.
* Fixed locale issues in -listxml.
-debugger: Made GUI debuggers more uniform.
* Added new memory view features to Win32 debugger.
* Fixed spelling of hexadecimal in Cocoa debugger and added decimal address option.
* Fixed duplicate keyboard shortcut in Cocoa debugger (Shift-Cmd-D was both new device window and 64-bit float format).
* Made keyboard shortcuts slightly more consistent across debuggers.
-plugins: Moved input selection menu and sequence polling code to a common library. Fixed the issue that prevented keyboard inputs being mapped with -steadykey on.
-docs: Started adding some documentation for MAME's internal UI, and updated the list of example front-ends.
-Regenerated message catalog sources. For translators, the new strings are mostly:
* The names of the inputs provided by the OS-dependent layer for things like fullscreen and video features. These show up in the user interface inputs menu.
* The names for automatically generated views. These show up in the video options menu - test with a system with a lot of screens to see more variants.
* The input macro plugin UI.
* A few format strings for analog input assignments.
* A few strings for the about box header.
Got rid of one of the UI audit inputs. There only needs to be one, and
the options can be presented in the confirmation menu. Two secret
keystrokes is too confusing. Also got rid of the long-obsolete UI
Toggle Debugger input.
Added audit media button to the toolbar so it's a bit less opaque, and
it can be accessed with a mouse/trackball (not just by knowing the key
mapping).
Made default I/O port names localisable.
Made autofire plugin save port fields using the { port, mask, type }
tuple, the same way MAME does. Unfortunately this will break existing
autofire configuration, but it should be more stable going forward.
Added some more UI keys to the default key mappings documentation.
* The UI controls are described as zoom in/out, but they had the
opposite effect on the palette and tile viewers. That has been
changed to make them consistent with the tilemap viewer.
* Made the default zoom key not act as a toggle. People are familiar
with the function of Ctrl+0/=/- in web browsers, so making them behave
similarly in MAME should make it more approachable. Also added the
default zoom key to the relevant documentation page.
* Implemented the default zoom key for the palette and tile viewers.
* In the tilemap viewer, if the view is in default expand to fit mode,
zoom in/out starting from the actual zoom ratio. Once again, this
behaves more like the zoom controls in a web browser displaying an
image so it should be more intuitive.
* Made more messages from the tilemap viewer localisable.
-util/zippath.cpp: Fixed MT08074.
* There were multiple issues at play here. After #8443 was applied,
is_root was simply never returning true on Windows, as OSD_WINDOWS
isn't actually defined outside libosd and libocore. This caused
phantom parent items to appear in disk roots on Windows, but it meant
that the check in zippath_resolve would always fail so the trailing
backslash would be trimmed. Fixing the macro test in is_root meant
the trailing backslash from C:\ would no longer be trimmed, which
caused the stat in zippath_resolve to fail.
-bigbord2.cpp: Hooked up floppy DRQ that had somehow got lost.
-Reduced tag map lookups in several drivers and devices.
-util/coretmpl.h: Removed an overload of bitswap that can be avoided
using if constexpr.
-Added doxygen comments to some classes, and fixed several doxygen
warnings.
-util, osd: Test for _WIN32 rather than WIN32.
* In C++17 mode, WIN32 is no longer a predefined macro, although various
things in 3rdparty define it to maintain legacy support. We're better
off moving forward anyway for when WIN32 disappears entirely. (WIN32
is not a reserved name, while _WIN32 is, starting with an underscore
follwed by an uppercase letter.)
Removed the IPT_POKER_BET, replacing it with IPT_GAMBLE_BET.
Re-organised the order of input types in the source and the
documentation to better reflect how they're logically grouped or
organised on a mahjong or gambling control panel.
Made the blackjack, poker and slots documentation headings subheadings
under the gambling heading.
Cleaned up inputs for a number of gambling games.
* Docs: Overhaul the default keys list
* Second phase of documenting default inputs better, also change Score to Take Score in Mahjong inputs
* Phase two of default keys docs adjustment.
- reset scheduler savestate to what it was for years before rewind
-- changing saved variables should be done after thorough testing. right now, adding some vars breaks some machines, adding other vars breaks others
- switch to megabyte-wise capacity
-- savestate size greatly differs between machines, relying on state count is unstable
- switch to internal indexing
-- no longer depends on inaccurate machine time
- rewind accelerator key in debugger (Ctrl+F11)
- report capacity hit (once), with some useful info
- make error reports saner
- mention rewind and rewind_capacity in the docs
