More compatibility earned since so many things have been fixed from previous release :) VIF-VUS ------- VIF-FIFO transfers seems to work better VU1 regs now are mapped to VU0 mem Implemented VU0 Interlocks over CFC2/CTC2/QMFC2/QMTC2 Fixed vu branch negative overflows VU D/T flags are handled now VU pointer gets aligned now PLUGINS ------- Added Firewire plugin protocol SPU2 ---- Fixed SPU2async cycle SPUdma timings changed to 80 CDVD ---- Implemented ReadNVM/WriteNVM BCR now decrements for each cdvdReadSector Fixes to SCMD's ReadILink/GetMecaconVersion are really implemented CdReadConfig/CdWriteConfig now uses NVM Interface --------- sstates now use CRC Added IOP disasm in the debugger Added rom2/erom support Added Patch Browser for win32 IPU --- Several changes for IPU HARDWARE -------- Fixed bug IOP counters Fixed some bugs over interrupts and exceptions Newer bios will now work with pcsx2. Pads fixed, more compatibility Fixed SIF0/1 when fifo got filled up Fixed EXL bug Fixed SIF SMFLAG/MSFLAG Fixed MCDS ********************************* *What's new in pcsx2 v0.6 * 11th release ********************************* General ------- pcsx2 is 3 years old. Happy birthday pcsx2 :) Now you can run even more games. some 3d games should work too . so enjoy :) CPUS ---- Recompiled VUs. Needs work but some stuff might work okay now Fixed bug in Vif.c, masks hopefully are ok Fixed alot of bugs in VUs, hopefully some stuff will now work as it should Added Interlock for CFC2/CTC2 Improvements to TLB code Restructured VU code and VIF. Fixed stuff in Interpreter and added CTC2 VU1 Microinstruction caller Fixed UNPACK modes in VIF, the Indeterminate fields are now set to 1 by default VUflags now should handle overflow/userflow ok Hardware -------- Fixed DMA8 Fixed bug in GS for CSR stuff Fixed savestates Fixed several SIF bugs FIFO is now really 128bit as it should be Added code for dma interrupts Added some scmds to CDVD Improved and fixed sio2 stuff Modified the DEV9irq stuff loadElfFile now reads the whole file first DMA4/7 interrupt timings are more accurate now Patches names are now using crc GUI --- Memory patcher (supports only 32bit patches so far) Fixed Bios Detection for HK Bios PLUGINS ------- ADDED usb plugins ********************************* *What's new in pcsx2 v0.5 * 10th release ********************************* General ------- A release that make you look things more promising. Several games can boot now and plenty of them can reach even ingame. There are still big issues with graphics but many improvements have done from 0.41.

FIFO for VIF0/1 now works More improvements to VifDma Improved VIF for transfers in parts FiFo VIF1 can read data now IPU --- Fixed IDEC bitstream decoding. Now, all *.ipu files should work fine bug fixes to IPU Hardware -------- Fixed clock in bios Fixed MFIFO for GS dma CDVDgetTD function need a 2nd parametre (new cdvd plugins needed!!) cdgetTOC + cdReadSubq HSync stuff, and better CSR/IMR handling Implemented mskpath3 / m3r flags Fixed VU memory64 writes masks Implemented INTC_STAT/MASK and DMAC_STAT for 64bits Added/fixed SCMDs (2,3,1A) in cdvd Vif0/1 regs are now mapped to hardware Fixes in sio, sio2 Destination Chain for SPR0 dma and added Vif masking Now pad2 works in lle mode [tested with bios browser] New SCMDs and MC commands Fixed dmaIrq's for Source Chain mode Fixed ret DMA op Added a base interrupt delay for the dma7 (spu2) Fixed pads. Now it should work okay most of the times Changed the way we handle SPR TTE transfers MISC ---- Added the possibility to load the System.map from ps2linux Added patching system. *pnach files are used now Added dev9 plugins Savestates ********************************* *What's new in pcsx2 v0.41 * 9th release ( Update ) ********************************* General ------- This release fixes a minor issue with the DVD iso's not booting, as of now DVD iso booting is fixed so please try all your games again !:) Hardware (lle) -------- Fixed bug in CDVD code for DvdReads, now DVD iso's should boot just fine. ********************************* *What's new in pcsx2 v0.4 * 9th release ********************************* General ------- This release is how we wanted the first pcsx2 release to be. Finally bios is working so many things can happend from now on. Also "Bust a Move" seems to work and other games like Kengo 2 goes much further. All of course is done in LLE now :) . CPUS ---- fix the recompiler bug that made recompiler not to work in pcsx2 0.3 new vu code. VU0 macromode should be perfect now. new optimaze code for fpu Rewrote VIF once again bug fixes to MMI reorganize recompiler DMAS ---- Improved SIF0,SIF1,SRP1 Added IPU0,IP1 dmas IPU --- Added decoding and commands. Some samples are working. NO pss support yet! IOP --- improved the IOP stuff.IOP is functional under bios execution :) HLE --- more WIP in Threads .Much better now more WIP in padman. Hardware (lle) -------- ADDED SPU2 functions. SPU2 is now possible if someone implement a SPU2 plugin. Changed a bit the GS protocol. Gs plugins need to modificate in order to work with 0.4 SIO2 added .Pads seems to work . Memcard partial functional CDVD emulation added. IOP rootcounters fixed IOP dmas implemented MFIFO implemented General ------ Fixed elf loader ********************************* *What's new in pcsx2 v0.3 * 8th release ********************************* General ------- This version of pcsx is the first that shows ingame progress from 1 game "Sven Goran's World Manager 2002".IT is the first ps2 emu that reaches ingame :) .
