Is there anything specific this fixes or just a minor tweak?

Small fix but I test Q3 and Super runabout and it gives less distortions for me.

in-game mixer change volume for hardware audio input, but DS use software channels in AICA

Yeah but I was just wondering if it would be possible to monitor for changes there and adjust the software accordingly.

Too expensive.
I've been trying to do this for a long time, but alas, I can't even read these values from the corresponding registers, they are write-only.
And trying to find where this is done in every game is too much. In general, there are no ideas on this matter yet.

If you have presets then switch to Fixed channels. In most games Fixed works a bit better than Adaptive.
But the playback still gets bad from time to time. I just can't figure out how to catch this programmatically.

New build: https://github.com/DC-SWAT/DreamShell/re...0.0RC5-T44

- Fixed disc change for patched D2 and Alone in the Dark.
- Showing /sd/games or /ide/games directory in ISO Loader at open in they present.
- Restarting FTP server when click on icon again.
- Slightly improved graphics transitions for DreamEye preview and screen fading.

I want to capture the current state of the loader. We need to make sure that nothing is broken in it.

Как можно заменить диск в D2 and Alone in the Dark? Если не трудно покажи с картинками

нужны пропатченые версии этих игр.
D2 выложен в теме с загрузчиком 0.7 под спойлером Rebuilded GDI
Alone in the Dark сегодня доделаю русскую и английскую версию и выложу

P.S. образ D2 тоже будет обновлён, но об этом позже, текущий вполне работоспособен.

что касается самой смены диска, то ничего делать не нужно, образы переключаются автоматически.

Oh i didn't see you released alone in the dark with disc swap
Thank you very much to focus on this game again.

Hi SWAT and all, to me the latest "DS_CORE" it doesn't boot up, other "DS_CORE" versions are fine. Could you please confirm that?! Otherwise I need to recheck the files that I copied into the hard disk.

Anyway I'll upload new build today, so wait a bit.

New build: https://github.com/DC-SWAT/DreamShell/re...0.0RC5-T45

- Added param with timer counter value for CDDA playback polling. Not saving to presets yet because I'm not sure about useful. But need try change this value for VA0.
- Fixed crashes when selected some old homebrew ISO's (bad title in IP.BIN).
- Fixed disc change for Stupid Invaders with "autoswap" patch.
- Get back IP.BIN boot mode for CDDA and VMU loaders.
- Saving alternative boot option (2ND_BOOT.BIN) to presets and shortcuts. It can be used for widescreen patched binaries in special images, for example D2.
- Fixed FTP server restarting.

Huge update thanks to you.

DreamEye QR Code scanning:

[fafadou]

Just some quick tests :

I've got a freeze sega rally 2 during the second race.
The flinstones doesn't boot.

Need more tests.

Cdda has less distorsions but still present, probably bad luck or wrong preset.

I like the new cdda menu tab, but the config seems to be not saved.

Else the dreamshell desktop is now full of amazing content



@crismod : how do you configure the startech ide to sata converter ? the ssd is not found during the boot ?
I put the jumper on slave.

New build: https://github.com/DC-SWAT/DreamShell/re...0.0RC5-T46

Added support for QR Code scanning in DreamEye app.
https://youtu.be/bXiwwTQ0BhU

Supported executing console commands and lua scripts.
Use "dsc:" prefix for console and "lua:" for lua code. Encoded string can be multiline for this.

It's saving for me...

EDIT: If you mean Counter value so it's not saved because this param is temporary here.

Здравствуй. А что это за технология DreamEye app и как её железно установить и как использовать в Half Life?

[megavolt85]

DreamEye app это приложение для камеры DreamEye, в Half Life её никак не получится использовать, в видео показан пример использования камеры, в QR коде был зашифрован ярлык DreamShell для запуска Half Life

Hello, Swat!
Did some tests with WSB2K2 and the current build T46 but the game back to froze just as the 0.7. On reply #196 I posted my tests using that past build and the game worked perfectly, off line and online. Is it possible to download older versions?
