In the past while fixing state problems i Wii, this section was the last one i found to be a problem as well. Ignoring this state variable fixes the last Wii state loading problem. PS3 has recently been reported as having state problems and could be similar issue. So, lets just ignore this state variable for all big-endian platforms.
- fixes (if necessary), update and cleanup the following boards that now dont need alternate mappings:
- this is part of migrating unif to be usuable in ines mappers
- boards affected in this commit are:
SUPERVISION16IN1, GS-2004, GS-2013, UNL-SMB2J, MARIO1-MALEE2, UNL-SA-9602B, UNL-KS106C / RESETNROM-XIN1
UNL-AC08, NES-NTBROM, BMC-K-3033, BMC-GN-26, BMC-GHOSTBUSTERS63IN1, BMC-830425C-4391T
BMC-830134C, BMC-891227 / BMC-CTC-12IN1, BMC-JC-016-2, UNL-T4A54A, UNL-8157, BMC-T-262
(might have forgotten to list some...)
- Part of migrating UNIF to NES 2.0 conversion, which should make
each unif roms to be compatible with each other. Some roms have
separate prg and chr banks, which mapper has to do separate banking
for such file versions.
- This change would also make the boards to be easily usuable iNes/Nes 2.0.
Currently reads and sets the following:
- mapper number up to 4095, prg rom size, chr rom size
- chr ram (volatile + non-volatile), region (ntsc, pal, dendy or multi-region)
todo: submapper handling, w-ram and prg nvram at least...
- As stated, prevent a potential crash on some certain roms using split rom banks. This is done by counting the number of prg/chr banks loaded and using this as limit count during mapper bank switching.
- Update related boards.
- Smoother states loading by using the the register value used during call to Sync() instead of the last value written since write and sync are called at different times.
- (reg value written @ $4A000, sync happens $5100)
- A few multi-cart UNIF carts are incorrectly using vertical/horizontal mirroring but the mapper used has mapper-controlled mirroring which does not work when using previous hard-mirroring.
- This PR allows overriding the initial mirroring set (vertical/horizontal) when cart requests a mirroring change for multi-cart games.
- Update exiting game database based on latest changes and testing (reference nesdev for one)
- Update mapper 36, supports F-15 City War (Spain) (Gluk Video) (Unl)
- add Reset function to m177, fixes games freezing when reset is pressed (might not be a hardware behavior, but its annoying for emulators :D)
- Support for Boogerman (SuperGame) Mapper 114, submapper 1
- Update Mapper 205 based on nesdev, move previous mapper 205 to separate GN-45 mapper with retained support to emulate OK-411
- Use nes-to-unif wrapper for some games which does not have nes 2.0 header.
- add unif board BMC-80013-B
- add mapper 281 (JY-052)
- disable KT-008 hack on mmc3. KT-008 boards should be assigned as Mapper 224. Fixes Final Fantasy X1/X2
- force-assign a few roms using ines-correct.h
- these games were assigned to mapper 217 in goodnes. this mapper is deprecated and the said games are Mapper 215's
- Minor adjustment of rom info logs at startup
