Why 'Provenance'?

Provenance is our origin story. The word has a similar meaning to Genesis, which is actually where the project started: Sega Genesis—our early beginnings as humble emulator on iOS.

Perceivable latency

For me, perceivable latency really kills the experience so it's my number one issue. I'm a humble C# Unity dev but if someone can point me in some kind of direction on where I might start I will do anything I can to try to help get latency down. I would love to see latency reduced to the point where we can all play Mario at least as well as we can on Mario Maker for Wii U (which manages to have remarkably low latency even through a wireless gamepad that's also receiving a video stream!)

8bitdo iCade Controller Crashes Provenance

Just noticed that the latest build crashes the entire app once I press any button on the 8bitdo NES30 Controller which I have in iCade mode. Not sure what is causing it.

iOS 9.3 adds support for BT keyboards on Apple TV 4

Apple has released a developer preview of iOS 9.3 which hails the return of Bluetooth keyboard support for Apple TV. Since that will be a thing again, do you think we can add iCade controller support to the Apple TV version of Provenance?

It would be a HUGE win to be able to use the SNES30/other 8bitdo/iCade controllers on the Apple TV instead of an MFi controller.

iCade/8bitdo snes30 crashes Provenance

Hello, I just downloaded and pushed 1.2.6 to my iPhone 6s (iOS 9.1), and my 8bitdo SNES30 doesn't work with it. It either does nothing (while playing SNES games), or it crashes Provenance as soon as I press a button. I do not know how to do the diagnostics you might need, though. :L

iCade fixes and 8Bitdo controller support

This Pull Request brings in the commits added by @DanielFontes on his fork to address iCade and 8Bitdo controller support in issue #269.

I rebased those changes on top of the latest Provenance master and resolved the rebase conflicts.

https://github.com/jasarien/Provenance/issues/269

https://github.com/DanielFontes/Provenance

Submitting this PR so as to bring those changes into the main Provenance repo.

NOTE: I have not personally evaluated or tested these changes. Opening this PR for visibility, as I was surprised and happy to see that 8Bitdo support was added! I can and will test once my 8Bitdo controller arrives in the mail.

iPhone 7 and 7+ issues - freezes causing OS reset

iPhone 7, iOS 10 (not jailbroken), compiled on Xcode 8. I couldn't grab any logs unfortunately. I'm novice at iOS development, so let me know if there's any better debugging I can grab.

I was previously running Provenance on an iPhone 6 compiled with Xcode 7, and had no issues at all .

Since updating to the latest master, compiling with Xcode 8, and running on an iPhone 7, the SNES core seems to have issues (tested with Super Metroid and Final Fantasy 3). Gameplay and sound stutters occasionally, controller input gets stuck, and sometimes opening the Provenance menu causes a complete hang (had issues force quitting the app when this happens).

Other cores (GBC) seem fine, although I haven't done thorough testing,

iCade 8bitdo nes30 not working in 1.2.6

First let me say thank you for this amazing project, truly awesome.

I'm trying to use an 8bitdo nes 30 (pro) on 1.2.6 and I get no response from any button. I downgraded to 1.2.5 and it works like a charm, so it seems like something broke functionality between that and the latest version.

B Button Triggers App Menu on SteelSeries Nimbus with AppleTV 4

Hi, first of all, thank you so much for all the work you've put into this beautiful app. I've been trying it out for the last couple of days and had a lot of fun playing old NES and Genesis games again.

I'm not sure if this is a bug with the emulator or something else, but the SteelSeries Nimbus' B button seems to trigger both the app menu (not the ROM's menu) along with the expected in-game B button behavior. For example, when playing Super Bomberman 3 for SNES, if I press the B button to set a bomb, the bomb will be set, but the app menu will also be brought up asking if I want to Return to Game Library or Resume. The Menu button on the Nimbus has the same functionality as the B button (which is also the case when navigating the AppleTV interface outside the Provenance app).

I'm using Provenance 1.3.2 on an AppleTV 4 running tvOS 10.1.1. This is my first time posting anything on GitHub, so apologies if the answer to this issue is obvious or if I left something out.

tvOS Top Shelf
Fix: https://github.com/jasarien/Provenance/issues/145

What this does

This PR introduces the Top Shelf feature to the tvOS target by showing the recently played games, and deep-linking to them.

Implementation

Introduces the top shelf app extension

Moves the Realm DB to a shared app group so the main app and the top shelf target can access it

refactors a bunch of defines and duplicate logic into shared classes/categories

add URLScheme to tvOS target

To Test

Enable App Groups on the TopShelf target, and specify an App Group ID Provenance Project -> TopShelf Target -> Capabilities Section -> App Groups

Enable App Groups on the Provenance TV target, using the same App Group ID

Define the value for PVAppGroupId in PVAppConstants.m to that App Group ID

Updates for Issue #637: Revisions to Settings View(s), Web Server Active Alert View(s) (iOS, tvOS) + Enabled In-App use of Web Server (iOS only)
Fixes to help with Issue #637:

Added short note about zipping multi-file roms

Added link to wikis ~~for disc-based games PSX/SegaCD Instructions wiki~~ [Updated to link to Importing ROMs] as footnote in a table cell Import/Export button in iOS

Added the above to the Web Server 'prologue' (Header).

Added small footnote to Web Server alert over Game Library View (iOS)

~~Replaced URL with a tappable link in Web Server UIAlertviews (iOS)~~ (moved to alert action button)

Cosmetic cleanup to Settings View:

Adjusted table cells details for consistency (type size, cell height) and readability (type sizes)

Rewrote table cell titles and description copy to condense and simplify and adjusted to match tvOS and iOS builds wording more closely.

other minor adjustments

Update: Enabled In-app use of Web Server for Managing files. (Keeps server running until done with view) - accessible 'View' button in 'Web Server Active' Alert View

Portrait mode support?

Don't mind using Landscape at all (actually, much preferred in gaming), but portrait would just add another level to the whole experience. Is this a work in progress or something in mind for the future?

I have a lot more suggestions/bug reports coming. Would you like me to open a new issue for each one?

Bug Report
replaceWithSummaryOrDelete

Expected:

Previous version to the latest the buttons are quick and responsive

Actual:

Took the plunge and updated to the latest version. Thing I noticed is button responsiveness is terrible. Light tapping a button registers it as a full tap and gives out the full effect of said button (jumps higher instead of just a small skip)

Reproduce:

PAL Resident Evil 2 doesn't work

PAL Resident Evil 2 is either displayed as different games for each of the discs that complete the game in question (meaning it is displayed as two games both titled "Resident Evil 2" and, if you look into the games' info, it tells you one is disc 1 and the other is disc 2) or only disc 1 is shown (sometimes, it will tell you it's the .m3u file, but it actually only plays disc 1, with no "Swap discs" option visible in the game's menu).

I expect multi-disc games to be shown as one game with the number of discs appearing on top of the game's thumbnail in Provenance's main screen, and then when you boot said game, you have the "Swap discs" option available in the menu.

I'd say that, rather than repeating here the 50 attempts in different directions that I tried to make multi-disc games work, it would be more useful if anyone could upload the PAL version of Resident Evil 2 in Provenance, make it work properly, and tell me how they did it. Because, for now, I've tried every tutorial I could find. I've inserted the game's files manually though the "Files" app of the iPhone; I've imported them directly inside Provenance; I put the two .bin files, the two .cue files and the .m3u file all together in one big .7z archive. I've put disc 1's .bin and .cue in one .7z archive, then disc 2's .bin and .cue in another .7z archive, then finally made a last .7z archive with these first two archives, plus the .m3u; I've named the m3u just like the game, then I've tried adding "(Disc 1)" because it's the first disc that the emulator would look for, then "Disc 2" not because of the actual second disc but because it's a "two-disc game", then I renamed the whole thing with "com.provenance.psx/" before the game's title for the .m3u file... Nothing works.

PPSSPP: Fix Game Freezing after 5 minutes, Save Adjustments / Joypad support

What does this PR do

Modifies PPSSPP save such that lags / freezes caused by waiting for save to return during the game won't happen. The saves will take place in the background, with synchronous saving happening only when the game is paused.

Adds joypad support to PPSSPP to support games that require both.

Adds generic internal flag to layout views to support Playstation / PPSSPP and other cores that might use joypad. Adjusted load to load save regardless of core version (version dialogue doesn't show on the ppsspp core, so the change will make the save load regardless)

Adds some adjustments to Mednafen to make on screen input work

CHANGELOG.md

Special thanks to contributors on this release; 👉 @mrjschulte 👉 @ToddLa 👉 @ac90b671 👉 @nenge123 👉 @david.nicolson 👉 @davidmuzi 👉 @amoorecodes

Added

Controllers:

On Screen Joystick Controls for N64 and PSX

APIs for keyboard, mouse, rumble, on-screen joystick. (coming in future release)

Apple TV: Support new Siri remote (MicroGamepad and DirectionalGamepad)

Code Signing is now managed with an XCConfig file. See CodeSigning.xcconfig.example for instructions. (Only applies to developers/xcode source installs)

Enumeration type menu options UI

FPS debug label now includes total CPU and Memory usage.

GameBoy Advanced cheat code support

Jaguar options exposed

Long press a ROM for quick access to Core Options

Mednafen

many more sub-core options added

SNESFaust 1 frame render ahead option (on by default. VERY SNAPPY!)

Metal Shaders (CRT, LCD, etc.)

N64:

mupen/gliden/rice options exposed

Dual Shock 4 touchpad as pause

option for Dual Joysticks on DualShock4 as dual controllers (allows Goldeneye dual controller joystick layout from 1 physical dualshock)

Native Metal renderer option [WIP/Buggy]

per-game option overrides

radio selection options

Sega Saturn Mutli-CD support

Swift UI/UIKit optional code paths at app start (SwiftUI currernly empty, for easier development in future)

VirtualBoy side by side mode (for 3D tv's with Side by Side mode. Google Cardboard coming later)

XCode will present a warning message if it detects a device build but CodeSigning.xcconfig isn't setup.

Localizations (Only Partially translated WIP)

NSLocalizedString for most strings in main app source

Chinese Simplified by @nenge123

Spanish

Russian by @amoorecodes

Dutch by @mrjschulte

Portuguese (Brazil) by Stéfano Santos

Improved

Mupen:

wrapper code organized, refactored

faster controller polling, various other code speedup tweaks.

mupen llvm optimization flags improved (was incorrectly -O2, now -Os)

On-Screen Controls

N64 layout improved

PSX layout improved

Branch prediction compiler hints for tight loops, possibly faster.

Catalyst: All cores build now for Intel and M1.

check if file exists before attempt to delete, reduces superfluous throws trapping in the debugger

Converted more app code from ObjC to Swift

Dark Mode UI always on, fixes some color issues

Fix some excessive thread blocks

Hide/Show systems chevron location tweaks

If multiple cores support a system, cores are listed in recommended order.

Improved logo/header bar for iOS & tvOS

Jaguar button layout tweaks

Mark various ObjC classes objc_direct_members. Should improve Swift to ObjC calls bypassing dynamic dispatch for function pointers (in theory)

Replace all spinlocks with atomic operations for better thread performance

replaced some sloppy force unwraps with proper nil checks and logging

Shaders are copied to Documents at load and read from thereafter. This allows locally editing / developing shaders without rebuilding.

Fixed

Conflicts better detected

tvOS top buttons sometimes couldn't be selected

Faster compile times (improved header imports, compiler flags)

Fixed some improper retain cycles in ObjC blocks

Fixed rare audio engine nil reference race condition crash

Cheat entry UI fixes

Updated

N64:

Swap left and right triggers to L:Start R:Z Button from other way around prior

mupen cxd4 plugin to latest upstream version

mupen rsp-hle plugin to latest upstream version

Updated Swift Packages (RxRealm, Realm, Cocoalumberjack)

Improved tvOS UI (top buttons, search, icons, more consistent styling)

Removed

Removed SteamController support (no one used it and the code caused too many compilations, plus steam controllers are kind of trash, sorry.)

AltStore Release Add our new AltStore source: https://provenance-emu.com/apps.json

N64 Release! with Mupen64Plus + GlideN64 — a non-jailbreak emulation first. A lot in this update: Swift codebase conversion, Atari Jaguar support, Saturn, Dreamcast…full multi-disc support for all of you RPG fans out there, dark theme default, 60 FPS optimizations, core updates, new touch controls, iOS 12, iPhone X, WebDAV support and much more…

⚠️ Breaking ⚠️

2.0 does not support upgrading from 1.4 libraries. It MAY work with some versions of 1.5beta's but not all betas are the same. Your mileage may vary. For this reason we're updating the version to 2, to indicate the lack of upgrade path.

ℹ️ You can install 2.0 along side 1.x by using a different bundle id
