Shannon's Blog - blah, blah, blah

[RSS Bot]

Kinda gotten away from updating the blog since I scrapped together a thread for testing atarixlbox. Here are some of the things I was thinking of changing. But really at this point I just wanna try to focus on playing with the emu and not "tweaking" it. Plus I've been fending off a cold recently. Not sure who is going to win, probably the cold but ah well.

 

I'm thinking of splitting off the "Computer Specific Options" in a seperate menu. See a few posts above where I list the configuration options. One new option not on that list will be to disable the Analog mapping for those few games it aint so great for (mostly a personal preference thing). And I'll probably do the "Disable Attract Mode" feature as well.

 

Plus, although I'm not a big fan of "autochangin" fields. I was thinking of maybe, for example, if you change the computer to 5200 that it automatically sets the media type to Cartridge, video mode to NTSC. Setting up the autodetect so it does not ask yes/no. Removing the Enable 0xC0000 RAM and Rtime option (Time seems to return the correct date-time even with it off).

 

Just trying to think of a way to reduce clutter and simplify things a little.

 

While messing with the up/down configuration I was considering the possibility of having an up/down cheats and up/down controller configuration (for those more complicated games that could use custom mapping). Not sure if x-port would be too thrilled about the extra info on his server though.
