Since all FLTKUI related code is either written from scratch for the
upcoming release or taken from "The Jolly Good Reference Frontend", I
have chosen to relicense to align with the JGRF sources. This
codebase as a whole is still released under the GPLv2+, but the FLTKUI
portions may be useful for other JG frontends that may pop up in the
future and may need to link against non-GPL sources.
- The FLTK frontend is now based on Nestopia JG, which has been imported
into the codebase and largely replaces the functionality previously
contained in "nstcommon", as well as the old input system. This has
effectively become a "Jolly Good API" frontend specific to Nestopia.
- Many new input devices are now supported, and can take both a
keyboard/mouse and a joystick definition. This includes user interface
functionality, such as fast forward, state saving, disk swapping, and
resetting.
- USB joysticks/gamepads are now hot-pluggable
- The window is now freely resizable and adapts to the change by making
the emulator output fill as much as possible while maintaining the
selected aspect ratio.
- Settings are now separated by interface settings, emulator settings,
and input definitions.
- General UI improvements have been done. The code is significantly
cleaner and more flexible, with some user-facing improvements to the
theme and menu system.
- This revision is still WIP. Some features or settings are either
temporarily or permanently removed:
- All audio related settings are gone, pending a rewrite of the audio
output code in the frontend. PAL (50Hz) support is flaky.
- Video filters have been removed, with the tentative plan to replace
them with modern shaders.
- Some NTSC filter fine tuning settings are not yet exposed in
Nestopia JG
- Some video settings (such as Hue/Saturation) are removed
- NSF Playback is removed pending a replacement using FLTK widgets
- The rewinder is disabled, with a tentative plan to replace it with
a solution that is implemented entirely in the frontend.
- Cheats are temporarily non-functional
