3 serious emulator BUGs 1.17 HOTFIX

Open soundsnow opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

It's been over a year since I last logged out of my account. Suddenly I remembered that I had forgotten something important. I saw the Bad Apple video again today and it reminded me of two serious bugs. Bad Apple (Video)▶️Bad Apple (Virtual Boy Tech Demo)▶️Mednafen (Emulator)▶️Hyper Fighting (Virtual Boy Game)

first game https://myrient.erista.me/files/No-Intro/Nintendo%20-%20Virtual%20Boy/Hyper%20Fighting%20%28World%29%20%28Aftermarket%29%20%28Unl%29.zip Open Hyper Fighting (World) (Aftermarket) (Unl).vb Select Versus, Select a character (Ken from Capcom's Street Fighter 2) Run for a few seconds then STOP/STUCK running COMPLETELY.

Verify whether it is a bug in VVB itself. Open Mednafen, open the game, select Versus, select a character. Everything is OK. No need for peripherals such as link cables.

second game https://myrient.erista.me/files/No-Intro/Nintendo%20-%20Virtual%20Boy/Bad%20Apple%20%28World%29%20%28Demo%29%20%28Emulator%20Version%29%20%28Aftermarket%29%20%28Unl%29.zip and https://myrient.erista.me/files/No-Intro/Nintendo%20-%20Virtual%20Boy/Bad%20Apple%20%28World%29%20%28Demo%29%20%28Hardware%20Version%29%20%28Aftermarket%29%20%28Unl%29.zip Both games run super slowly throughout the whole process. Real hardware does not have such effect. Mednafen is also smoother than VVB (hardware version and emulator version). This is a Virtual Boy Hardware Bad Apple video https://youtu.be/K9kIw6P5Fkw?si=wM3olsNNJwBURXcU

Since no one reported these bugs at all, I had no choice but to do it myself. I have uninstalled VVB before, I don't know if these bugs still exist. I think so, because @SupernaviX 's main code basically hasn't changed much

I remember that when VVB was running Bad Apple, the whole process was noisy and there was no human (vocal) voice at all. It will probably take ten minutes until VVB finishes it.

third game https://myrient.erista.me/files/No-Intro/Nintendo%20-%20Virtual%20Boy/StarFox%20%28World%29%20%28Demo%29%20%28Aftermarket%29%20%28Unl%29.zip

I remember StarFox can't be played. @SupernaviX open its vb file. Its emulation will be stopped. Press A to continue. But try all buttons, nothing happened. https://files.virtual-boy.com/homebrew/955854/starfox-demo.png This png isn't "Press A to continue". Starfox received a median score of 90%, which was computed from: 6 users. May other emulators on PC supports this game
