1.52:
- When using Ootake with "Non-Scanlined" screen-setting, at the display of frame-rate with "Info->Show FPS" menu, the bug that had not been occasionally displayed by the environment was corrected.
- When switching to the FullScreen mode, the refresh rate of display switches to "60Hz" by the automatic operation. (*In Windows98/Me, it is not possible to switch by the automatic operation.)
1.51:
- In the start demo of "Pop'n Magic", the problem that the screen has fallen into disorder was corrected. (Timing of CD-ROM access processing)
- At the display of frame-rate with "Info->Show FPS" menu, the bug that had not been occasionally displayed by the environment was corrected.
- In the continue-screen of "Paranoia(Psychosis)", the problem that some characters had shaken was corrected. (Correction of timing)

+ Please let me do a little an important talk for the game field. It is continuation of the story (Input Delay(Lag) problem) written last time.
+ The delay influences people who do not feel the delay, too. Even if you cannot feel the delay, the difficulty of the game goes up certainly, and the pleasure of the game certainly falls. As a result, there might be a case that goes away from the game (Or, the played frequency decreases. Without recognizing the cause for myself).
+ "Golf game" is the most remarkable to feel the delay. Please play "Naxat Open"(the masterpiece golf game of "PC Engine") by full-screen(for easy to watch). And, watch the power meter(small circle) of the screen seriously when you swing. In the state, push the button of the pad when the power meter(small circle) came right above person's head. When playing with the display monitor where delay hardly exists, in "Ootake", the meter (small circle) stops at once if the button is pushed. But, in "MagicEngine(input-lag is large)", the meter(small circle) stops in the place that shifted to the right a little. If you do not push the button (do not shot) after this, this test can be repeated. Please try repeatedly. And, you must feel the difference of "Play Sense".
+ When you recognize the input-lag, if you push the button ahead of time, it becomes a temporary solution. However, you will not feel good feelings in the method. True interest of the action game is ruined. Though it is not desirable, the timing of the golf game can become accustomed. However, the timing of the baseball and tennis game becomes unnatural late. Because up, down, left, and right movement is necessary. Even the timing of other actions and shooting games is similar.
+ As a result, I strongly worry about the misunderstanding (difficult and not interesting for the delay) of the game.
* Example of measures on emulator author side -> http://www.ouma.jp/ootake/delay.html * Measures on user side PC environment -> http://www.ouma.jp/ootake/delay-solution.html + Therefore, please read above-mentioned "Measures on user side PC environment", and make a good PC environment if possible. And, in "Ootake", enjoy playing "PC Engine(TG16)" games sincerely.
+ Thank you for reading. Hereafter, they are update details of v1.50.
Changes:
- "Show FPS" was added to "Info" menu. "Frame Rate (frames displayed per one second)" is displayed on the screen(left-bottom). When the personal computer is an enough speed, this keeps almost 60(occasional 59). When this frequently falls below 60, the processing speed of the personal computer is insufficient. In that case, please lighten the setting (FullScreen[F12] or "Volume->Light PSG" menu).
- In the start demo of "Efera & Jiliora - The Emblem From Darkness", the bug that the voice had become interrupted (generated by v1.49) was corrected.
- When source is compiled with gcc, the part that was not able to be compiled correctly according to the version of gcc was corrected.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
A new version of MagicEngine, a shareware Turbografx 16 / PC-Engine Emulator for PC and MAC has been released. Here is the change log for this version:
v1.1.2:
- added a new option in the pce.ini file
'[misc] screen_resolution' to display the current
screen resolution of the PC-Engine under the FPS counter
- moved the 'fullscreen' option from the ratio menu to
the zoom menu, like that it's now possible to select
fullscreen stretch while preserving the aspect ratio,
this can be useful for exemple for those who have
a 16:9 wide monitor
- fixed the slow down problem when the Supergrafx emulation
was enabled
v1.1.1:
- fixed a bug in the cheat engine,
ROM codes were not always working
- fixed a sprite rendering bug which could corrupt graphics
- fixed a bug in the custom resolution initialization
- fixed a bug in the vsync initialization
+ This will be an important talk for the future of "PC Engine(TG16)" emulator. Please read though it is my not good English Language.
+ "Ootake" is not satisfied with "the game was able to be started". "The game can enjoy even ending" is a target. Therefore, Ootake sticks to detailed reproduction. Especially, it sticks to the reproduction of "Reactive speed of the Joypad".
+ Please do seriously and compare the Shooting & Action game by "MagicEngine(Charge)" and "Ootake(Free)". Perhaps, almost playing by "Ootake (the delay after the pad is operated is minimum)" will be able to take a high score. I think the difference of the operation feeling to be felt.
+ This greatly influences "Played happiness", too. Though it becomes a severe opinion, it will not be able to enjoy the game enough by "MagicEngine(the delay from the pad operation to the reaction is large)". The delay also has danger of making it to the one to which even "Evaluation of the game" was mistaken. Therefore, "Ootake" is checked always severely "Whether it is possible to enjoy it by the sense similar to a real machine or not?". Because it is a respect of minimum to a past masterpiece "PC Engine(TG16)" game. About the delay measures of "Ootake" - http://www.ouma.jp/ootake/delay.html + There are no feelings that criticize "MagicEngine". I think that it did wonderful work. But, it greatly delayed the development of "PC Engine" emulator compared with other machine (NES, SNES, GENESIS, etc.) emulators. Because the monopolized (even the BAD ROM-image could be played) "MagicEngine" was "Source closed-door". Other machine(NES, SNES, GENESIS, etc.) emulators has developed greatly by an excellent source code and information on hot people.
+ Fortunately now, "Mednafen(Free)" and "Ootake(Free)" exist. Those reproduction level is higher than "MagicEngine". And, they keep disclosing the source and information. I feel that it is time when "MagicEngine" also discloses the source and information if "PC Engine(TG16) is loved. This is my selfish hope. Because the continuance of development can be handed over to young people who love retro game. "Even future generations keep telling an old masterpiece with perfect reproduction." I think that this is essence of the emulator.
+ Thank you for reading. Hereafter, they are update details of v1.49.
And here are the changes:
- "Set Other SystemCard image" and "Play with Other SystemCard" were added to "CD-ROM" menu. "System card of an old version" can be set (It is possible up to two), and it can be started at once.
- "Play with Backup-RAM Full" was added to "CD-ROM" menu. The state that the capacity of backup RAM becomes full is reproduced, and the warning screen of each game can be seen.
- The processing part of ADPCM sound was brought close to a real machine. In "Urusei Yatsura", the warning voice full of the capacity of backup-RAM is sounded to the last minute.
- When "Arunamu no Kiba" is started, the message of "Recommend Install" is displayed. ("CD-ROM -> Install(CDspeed-up)" menu) Then, it is possible to play with stability.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
1.48:
- v1.47 had a miserable bug. The bug of the CPU(HuC6280) emulation (In "Motoroader", the screen display falls into disorder, etc.) was corrected.
1.47:
- CPU(HuC6280) processing part was sped up. I think that processing lightened in some measure of a personal computer environment so not fast.
- The repetition processing of the CD-DA sound was brought close to a real machine. In the visual scene of "Arunamu no Kiba", the problem that had stopped at a pitch-dark screen occasionally (generated from a recent version) was solved.
- In "Popful Mail", the weight of processing was reduced in some measure with PC not fast.
- In the visual scene(one place) of "Nekketsu Legend Baseballer", the interrupted voice was corrected.
- At Full-Screen mode, when setting it to the resolution of 1600x1200 or more, the bug to which the screen had not been correctly occasionally displayed was corrected.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
1.46:
- The volume (listening-feeling) in the small volume part of the PSG sound was brought close to a real machine. The sound condition and harmony have approached a real machine. I think that I was able to improve the entire tone quality. Especially, a small-volume game as "Soldier Blade" and "Gunhed (Blazing Lazers)" obtained a big improvement.
- In the visual scene of "Akumajou Dracula X", the problem that the top on the screen falls into disorder uncommonly was corrected. * The disorder is still seen when changing to the setting that displays the over scanning area. Therefore, the play switched to the setting that doesn't display the over scanning area ("F11" key. The setting can be maintained by "File->Set Resume" menu or the state saving.) is recommended.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
1.45:
- "Use Black Belt when Hide Overscan" menu was added to "Setting->Screen" menu. If this check is put, the size of Ootake-window can be maintained when the over scanning area is concealed ("F11" key or "Screen->Show Overscan Area" menu).
* At "Start Overscan Customize" menu (above one), if it is set that the over scanning area is not displayed, this menu is invalid.
- The access processing of CD-ROM was brought close to the movement of a real machine. In "GS Mikami", the problem that had stopped on a black screen occasionally was solved.
- In the visual scene of "Nekketsu Legend Baseballer", the gap of the voice was corrected. (I was able to do the correction confirmation even to ending.) *The play installed by "CD-ROM->Install(CD speed-up)" menu is recommended (CD-ROM access is severe in this game).
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
- Processing that decided the vertical display beginning position was brought close to a real machine. In "Strider Hiryu", the problem that the high-score display in the top of the screen is lacked was solved.
- "Overscan Height 6dot" menu was added to "Screen->Overscan Customize" menu.
- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
- "Screen->Show Overscan Area" menu was added. When the check is put on this menu, over scanning area (part not seen in edge usual TV of the cathode-ray tube almost) is displayed. I think that the person who was handling the monitor where the over scanning area is seen feels the atmosphere.
* When the game is made, the over scanning area assumes the possibility of not seeing it. There is no problem even if it doesn't see it. Therefore, in some games, the noise image is displayed in the over scanning area.
* The display can be switched by even pushing "F11" key. The switch of "TV Mode" changed to "F11" while pushing "Ctrl" key.
* At "Setting->Screen->Start Overscan Customize" menu, the setting for the start is possible.
- The processing speed and timing were elaborately brought close to a real machine. In "Metal Angel", the problem that the screen has blinked was solved.
- In "Dragon Spirit", "Ys IV", "Youkai Douchuuki" and "Legend of Hero Tomma", even when the turbo-button(auto-fire) setting was set to "High Speed", the function became effective.

- ** In almost all the games of TurboGrafx16's "Turbo-Chip", there is a report that is able to play without trouble with Ootake. Please convert it into a correct image file if you use the sucking out machine for Japanese "Hu-Card".
It is possible to convert it when the file is opened with Ootake. The converted "just proper" image file can be used with [a lot of other Free TG16/PCE emulators], too. This is a "fair" method for the "PC Engine & TurboGrafx16" emulator and the PCE/TG16's fan. (Thank you for reading.)
