QMC2 v0.2.b13

EmuCR:QMC2 QMC2 v0.2.b13 is released. QMC2 – M.A.M.E./M.E.S.S. Catalog / Launcher II is the successor of one of the first UNIX M.A.M.E. GUI front ends available on this planet called QMamecat (derived from MAMECAT, which was text-only).

CHANGES - v0.2.b13, 02-JAN-2010

fix: general bug fixes
imp: improved functionality
new: newly added functionality
wip: (incomplete) work in progress
doc: documentation changes
inf: informational only

v0.2.b13, 02-JAN-2010:

* fix: minor: use reverse order when loading translators (first load the Qt translations, then QMC2´s translations -- Qt searches the loaded translations in reverse order, that is QMC2´s translation will now be used with higher precedence)
* fix: disable MAWS cache directory browse button during reload
* fix: worked around a Qt bug that inhibits font changes through QApplication::setFont() when a style sheet is active
* fix: restored forced backround widget updates for Qt versions >= 4.5.3 (MAWS quick links feature), delaying it to allow Qt to process all pending events (not perfect: may flicker)
* fix: hide the MAWS quick links button when its menu is (auto-)hidden and the mouse cursor has left the browser widget in the meantime
* fix: corrected minor focus issues after game/machine list reload
* fix: MAWS lookup: don´t try to download the startup URL when we´re offline
* fix: audio player: initially scroll playlist to the track last played (if any)
* fix: using update() wherever repaint() was used to redraw game/machine images (among other things, this corrects some long-standing minor item selection issues)
* imp: build: added a build configuration file for NetBSD (see arch/NetBSD.cfg) -- thanks to Jürgen Buchmüller for testing QMC2 in this environment and reporting his results
* imp: SDLMAME/MAME/MAMEUIFX32 templates updated to 0.136 (SDLMAME only: new option numprocessors)
* imp: SDLMESS/MESS templates updated to 0.135 (no new or changed options)
* imp: added/replaced a number of embedded icons to/in the classic image set
* imp: improved the error handling of the process manager
* imp: build: added new make options CC_FLAGS and CXX_FLAGS to pass additional flags to the C/C++ compiler
* imp: reparent the detail setup dialog to the widget it was called from (main widget or settings dialog)
* imp: removed programmatic scrolling of front-end and emulator logs on new entries (using Qt´s default now, which allows the user to scroll back and uses automatic scrolling when at the end of the log)
* imp: improved synchronization of log browser updates
* imp: minor: forcing PNG format when loading images, which offers a small performance increase
* imp: during a session, the item expansion state and scroll bar values of game-/machine-specific emulator configurators are preserved
* imp: using QStyledItemDelegate as base-class for item delegation (Qt recommendation)
* imp: tool tips with descriptions are now also shown for the names of emulator options (not only when hovering their editors/values)
* new: support for additional (foreign) emulators which can be used on a per-game/-machine basis
* new: Portuguese translation by Marcelo Bossoni
* new: experimental support for Qt 4.6 (note that Qt 4.5 is still the required and recommended version)
* new: added new make option BROWSER_PLUGINS to enable/disable the use of browser plugins (default: disabled)
* new: X11 only: added support for optional/on-demand embedding of emulator windows through the XEmbed extension (note that without minor modifications to SDLMAME/SDLMESS, there´s currently no way to distinguish between multiple instances of the same emulator, running the same game/machine) -- requires xwininfo!
* new: X11 only: optional embedder functions (snapshot tool, additional features planned)
* new: added new make option XWININFO to supply an alternate path to xwininfo (default: "xwininfo")
* new: added ability to specify a separate (i.e. fixed sized) font for all log browsers
* new: except for menus, all static icons are now scaled/adjusted to the size of the current application font (even icons on the tool bar)
* new: emulator configurator widgets now use check boxes (instead of combo boxes) for all boolean settings
* doc: updated Q1.7.1 and Q1.7.2 in FAQ to reflect Ubuntu 9.10 and openSUSE 11.2
