MAME: The Emperor's New Clothes

The things they do not want you to see...



 
Driver-Man's super-binary:
 
Vs. 
 
Derrick's nonsensical bloat:

TESTING: 720 Degrees (Atari Games, 1986)

Derrick's code, summary: flickering sprites bug, analog jittery rotation bug, non-authentic angle conversion algorithm, unnecessary new menu and other bloat, tracking gets off just by using the new menu, without option to re-calibrate the game must be re-started
  
Driver-man's code, summary: fixed analog jittery motion and flickering sprites bug, new angle conversion algorithm true to authentic operation, simultaneous support of input devices - easy testing, same old familiar interface - no new menus, tracking can be calibrated at any time 
  
      (Someone requested Derrick's source code,
                                 not surprisingly message disappeared in a matter of minutes.)

  

There are, of course, those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now orders are being shouted into telephones and men with guns will soon be on their way. Why?

Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth.



  
And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance, coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression.

How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those who are more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable. But again, truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.






- Are you like a crazy person?
I'm quite sure they will say so.
 

Voila! In View, a humble Vaudevillian Veteran
cast Vicariously as both Victim and Villain
by the Vicissitudes of fate.

This Visage, no mere Veneer of Vanity
is a Vestige of the Vox populi
now Vacant, Vanished.

However, this Valorous Visitation
of a bygone Vexation stands Vivified
and has Vowed to Vanquish these Venal
and Virulent Vermin Vanguarding Vice
and Vouchsafing the Violently Vicious
and Voracious Violation of Volition.


The only Verdict is 

Vengeance
 
a Vendetta

held as a Votive not in Vain
 
for the Value and Veracity of such 
shall one day 
Vindicate the Vigilant and the Virtuous.

Verily, this Vichyssoise of Verbiage Veers most Verbose.

  
- Can you prove any of this?
 Why do you think I'm still alive?


  
- Oh please, have mercy!
Oh, not tonight Bishop... not tonight!
 

Those two input handling bits, analog (absolute) and dial (relative), can be put together, and this little piece of code below is the actual algorithm compiled in the binary given for download. It does everything, and more, Derrick's 2MB extra bloat does, only without bugs, faster and more authentic.








ADDENDUM: Who owns MAME?

There are many changes to MAME code which instead of to improve MAME and fix old bugs, they introduce new bugs, bloat and unnecessary hacks. However, we are not allowed to talk about it on MAME World, BYOAC or KLOV forum, they expect you will pretend those bugs and bloat do not exist.
 
Perhaps Aaron is being paid by Microsoft to introduce bloat and slowdowns in MAME, for whatever reason Microsoft is doing the same with their own software. And as funny as that sounds, or not, the CONTROL of where the project is going, or what submission are accepted, is not openly discussed, it is not subject to public scrutiny nor there is any voting and majority consideration when decisions are made.

 
Now, everyone knows about David R. Foley affair and supposedly stolen MAME trademark, which lifted up quite some dust and made a lot of people and general public angry, yet in the same time the ownership of far more important MAME assets are not even mentioned or discussed anywhere. -- How did MAME get from Italy to Canada and England? How did  control over MAME get from Nicola to some Mr Mark Colgan and some proxy firm called 'contactprivacy'? How is MAME a "public project" if all the decisions are made behind closed doors and everything is controlled by some unknown selected individuals?

Who owns MAME? 


- "And thus I clothe my naked villainy 
With old odd ends, stol'n forth of holy writ; 
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil."

ELECTROMAGNETISM: The Simple Truth


When 2 and 2 come together... it equals 4, and it's that simple.




Photons and wave-particle duality

First, let me equate fields with "particles", and so the smallest amount of electric charge are electron and positron, their filed magnitude describes spherical potential which we somewhat appropriately consider a 'point particle' since it drops off rapidly according to inverse-square law.

The magnitude of an electric field surrounding two equally
charged (repelling) and two oppositely charged (attracting) particles.


Photon, electromagnetic radiation is simply combined kinetics of an electric dipole. When positron and electron interact, initially they will try to stick together - orbit each other, but due to magnetic force acting perpendicularly to both, the velocity vector and magnetic field vector, they will twist around and produce spiral trajectory, or more precisely said - their paths will describe double-helix. This type of wavy movement is also known as transverse wave, so electron and positron do not really annihilate, they actually COMBINE into a photon. Light polarization is then simply geometrical plane of charge oscillation, while superposition explains why photons not have net electric charge despite their  evident electromagnetism.




- "Electromagnetic waves can be imagined as a self-propagating transverse oscillating wave of electric and magnetic fields.


- "The fact that the electromagnetic field can possess momentum and energy makes it very real... a particle makes a field, and a field acts on another particle, and the field has such familiar properties as energy content and momentum, just as particles can have"







Magnetic monopoles
right under everyone's nose

EM polarity is a relation between forces of attraction and repulsion, if the field lines are going in two opposite directions we have a dipole moment and minimum of two fields, but if all field lines go in only one and the same direction sharing a common source, then we simply ought to call it a "monopole".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amper's_law

MAGNETIC DIPOLE (left) / MAGNETIC MONOPOLE (right)

 
This monopole fields drops off with inverse-square in the plane perpendicular to its velocity, but it also weakens as the angle aligns with velocity vector according to cross product, so at the end this field looks like  doughnut or toroid, the divergence of this field is most certainly not zero.

\mathbf{B} =\frac{\mu_0 q \mathbf{v}}{4\pi} \times \frac{\mathbf{\hat r}}{r^2}


Interestingly enough, this goes along beautifully with what EDWARD LEEDSKALNIN told us quite some time ago when he was talking about "North pole individual magnets" and "South pole individual magnets". I suppose everyone knows about Ed, or at least about Coral Castle and Billy Idol's song "Sweet Sixteen"?


- "Dirac showed that the existence of magnetic monopoles was consistent with Maxwell's equations only if electric charges are quantized, which is observed."







Aether and the speed of gravity

Speed of light is terminal velocity of EM fields. Therefore, just like free-falling object reaches terminal velocity due to air drag, so does the photon or any EM radiation have its terminal velocity due to resistance of Aether.

Speed of field potentials, the volume magnitude propagates much faster, possibly as longitudinal wave, which makes charges, as well as electric potentials and gravity, appear "rigid" and explains apparent instantaneous interaction over distance.


Aether and gravity. Helical or transverse propagation of EM fields and longitudinal propagation of their potentials would have different terminal velocity influenced by the density gradients or pressure differences of this fabric, which closely corresponds to gravitational potentials or inertial reference frames.


Vorticity and magnetism. Aether "fluid-dynamics" analogy is probably the most obvious in the photo below as we can see the right-hand rule just like with Lorentz equation, where the force acts inward, towards decreased density and is attractive just like with magnetic field of a moving charge. Biot-Savart law, magnetic field equation, can be used equally well in electromagnetics just as in aerodynamics.

Image



So, Lorentz was right after all
...Lorentz on his side continued to use the aether concept. In his lectures of around 1911 he pointed out that what "the theory of relativity has to say ... can be carried out independently of what one thinks of the aether and the time".

He commented that "whether there is an aether or not, electromagnetic FIELDS certainly exist, and so also does the energy of the electrical oscillations" so that, "if we do not like the name of "aether", we must use another word as a peg to hang all these things upon."


In the early 1920s, in a lecture which he was invited to give at Lorentz's university in Leiden, Einstein sought to reconcile the theory of relativity with his mentor's cherished concept of the aether. In this lecture Einstein stressed that, in general relativity, space is "endowed with physical quantities".

Shortly before his lecture in Leiden in 1920 he admitted in the paper: "Grundgedanken und Methoden der Relativitätstheorie in ihrer Entwicklung dargestellt": - Therefore I thought in 1905 that in physics one should not speak of the aether at all. This judgment was too radical though as we shall see with the next considerations about the general theory of relativity. It moreover remains, as before, allowed to assume a space-filling medium if one can refer to electromagnetic FIELDS.


The founder of quantum FIELD theory, Paul Dirac, stated in 1951 in an article in Nature, titled "Is there an Aether?" that "we are rather forced to have an aether".







And, why no one ever told you
how electrons actually attract?!?



- "The Z-pinch is an application of the Lorentz force, in which a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field experiences a force. One example of the Lorentz force is that, if two parallel wires are carrying current in the same direction, the wires will be pulled toward each other. The Z-pinch uses this effect: the entire plasma can be thought of as many current-carrying wires, all carrying current in the same direction, and they are all pulled toward each other by the Lorentz force, thus the plasma contracts."

initramfs UPDATE:
21.7mb - Live CD myOS-1_1_9.iso - 2008-03-12, arch = x86
This is initramfs build, so even tho its 10mb bigger it fits in less, only 64mb RAM disk. Extra 10mb are to feature WebKit based demo web browser from Trolltech's Qtopia Core, to compile Scitech SNAP/MGL projects just type: dmake
How to use?
Download iso, burn to CD, restart computer...
What computer?
  • Old build should work on almost all x86 based PCs, the oldest machine I've tried this on was AMD-K6, 266MHz, 128Mb, S3 Virge video card, with glgears running @ 10FPS... It will also run on some x86 based Apple Macintosh computers
  • New build has additional support for Mac specific hardware, uses initramfs and is further trimmed so it fits in only 64mb RAM;
  • PowerPC build for 'New World" Mac, G3 and up is in working stage but performs poorly compared to Mac OS 9 so there is no point of putting Linux there, or is there? [project abandoned, problems: graphic drivers, boot procedure, HD installation]
Why, what for?
  • It's about an idea - Linux can be simple, the whole development environment can be simple and free of additional configuration, installation or any other kind of hardware or software setup
  • Development system, platform independent, allowing for the whole application or game to be distributed on a Live CD or Live USB with complete OS included
  • Embedded Linux - mobile phones, PDAs, media players, public computers, ATMs, avionics, handheld consoles and other systems or terminals that need to run independently or safely without 'Hard Drive' or entirely from ROM chip
  • Base to build graphical windowing system on top of OpenGL
  • Personal mini-Linux on USB key-chain, rescue Linux, Secure information storage/processing mini-system
  • Simple, handy tool to teach, learn, use or just demonstrate C/OpenGL & Linux capabilities
"OpenGL without X" as well as Plug & Play side of it, is all thanks to GPL release of these fantastic drivers - SciTech. There you can find full source code and lot more OpenGL and other demos including game DOOM.

NDN windows in action - 'Welcome' splash screen
Minimalistic GNU/Linux system, stripped down of everything but core necessary files to compile and run OpenGL/C code. It has simplified directory structure and cleaned up internal cross referencing. Programs compiled in myOS will run on any Linux with or without X. (GPUs).
Copy of the OpenGL Red Book is included together with 45 examples from the book. Examples are organized by chapters, each in separate folder, ready to compile, run and play with. Source code is modified to use Scitech drivers and is very similar to GLUT version in the Red Book. This little collection is really all one needs to learn OpenGL. In fact the whole system, being very simple to use or analyze and understand, can be a tool to teach Linux basics and C/OpenGL programming.
With SciTech SNAP/MGL drivers (based on Mesa) it was possible to run OpenGL without X. Stripped down and modified GNU gcc compiler, mixed with diet libc includes and selected shared files seem to be able to compile all relevant libraries and produce stable and relatively small code. Beside Necromancer's windows manager and OpenGL developing tools this is pretty much your average 'Linux' thanks to BusyBox.
Size can be reduced even more, see this for inspiration:

- support for other architectures: ARM, PowerPC...
- more kernel drivers: LCD/touchpanel, wi-fi, bluetooth, SDcard..
- more network support for Computer-Cluster operation
- additional 3D content creation and rendering software...
? myOS-Qt [DONE]
- rebuild myOS base on Trolltech Qtopia and see what happens?

Shadows, shadows, shadows...
Chief Wiggum:
"They only come out in the night. Or in this case... the day."
goal 1: 100% COMPLETE
Test/compare Real-Time multiple Light/Shadow algorithms, now using ARB depth/shadow texture, ARB multitexture & Frame Buffer Objects extensions...
goal 2: %80, (test stage COMPLETE)
Linux (myOS) conversion, (no accelerated texture read),
* game colection to be included in myOS X-less r0.4 including Star Trek Classic - text/console & OpenGL based conversion...
[NOTE, never did Star Trek OpenGL conversion, instead coded Elite remake]
* Metal Gear Solid like 1st stage demo, FPS > 120, without texturing - conclusion: APPLICABLE
goal 3: 40%, basic implementation (Linux - myOS, C only)
* Stage editor, camera scripting, dialog/text balloons, AI
key concern: %100 SOLVED
speed, simplicity in introducing additional dynamic and/or static lights to scene dynamically without need to calculate/compare geometry data with new glFog based algorithm, where fade-out trick effectively culs off light frustum and in return allows for seamless integration of lights, independant of position and orientation, also makes room for additional image-space effects and object ID sorting in alpha channel or transparent body/colored glass shadows - all in one pass.

Quick hack controls: W, S, A, D
Implemented Vertex Buffer Objects - Vertex Arrays, turns out display list outperforms VBOs, but not much, so it looks like a nice generic solution to hold static and dynamic background. Controls: W, S, A, D to move around, hold right Mous and drag up/down to zoom camera in/out, CTRL+Mous to pan, SPACE to cycle light views, left Mous to fire and ESC to exit. [need edit]
New 3D Engine-stage 2 (source + binary), 15/Dec/06
Multiple lights, spot, directional, fade-out in distance, per-pixel illumination, no shaders! Frame Buffer Objects, ARB multitexture and ARB depth (shadow) texture extension, motion blur and other post-render image effects come for free as all is rendered to textures anyway.... FBO doesnt need depth renderbuffer as long as it have attached texture with depth component, this is surprisingly faster even with GL_FALSE read, write to color, so rendering to both depth and RGB(A) textures over FBO is faster than just rendering to depth texture, and since is faster to render all at once its cheap to combine other effects with shadow texture, like fog for light/shadows intensity fade-out, spotlight circles, projected transparent colored surfaces and so on...[need edit]

After playing again this one...
im not sure if its silly for me to say, but this game turned
out to be great! ...or maybe, im just happy it still works.. like new!
This is a full game, featuring AI, increasing level difficulty, single player/multiplayer option - against computer snake or friend sharing the keyboard (hot-seat)

(coded in 7 days for University assignment)
Arcadepod.com: "A very exciting game of snake. One of the most creative version I've seen. If you're a fan of this popular game, you must try this one. Compete with computer for the longest tail."
*not working opengl
Star Wars demos, lost source code, lost sound files. This collection featured playable levels in space, on ground, over Death Star and Big asteroid. 3 ships to fly X-wing, Tie-fighter and Millenium Falcon with outside and cockpit view. Friendly and enemy AI, effects like sun-flares, lense effects, hyperspace space distortion, exposions... not working on non-Voodoo hardware, requires some old version of MESA's OpenGL.DLL and freezes without sound files :-(
