higan (console multi-system emulator)
|
|
|
|
higan (formerly known as bsnes) is an emulator that began development
|
|
on 2004-10-14. The purpose of this emulator is a bit different from
|
|
others: it focuses on accuracy, debugging functionality, and clean
|
|
code. The emulator does not focus on things that would hinder accuracy.
|
|
This includes speed and game-specific hacks for compatibility. As a
|
|
result, the minimum system requirements for higan are very high.
|
|
|
|
Note: higan v106 is the last version that will build on Slackware 14.2.
|
|
I will update to the latest version when 15.0 releases.
|
|
|
|
As of v104, higan has top-tier support for the following consoles:
|
|
|
|
- Nintendo Super Famicom/SNES, including add-on hardware:
|
|
+ Super Game Boy
|
|
+ Sufami Turbo
|
|
- Nintendo Game Boy Advance
|
|
|
|
It also includes some level of support for these consoles:
|
|
|
|
- Satellaview add-on for the Super Famicom
|
|
- Nintendo Famicom/Nintendo Entertainment System
|
|
- Nintendo Game Boy
|
|
- Nintendo Game Boy Color
|
|
- Sega Master System
|
|
- Sega Game Gear
|
|
- Sega Mega Drive/Genesis
|
|
- NEC PC Engine/TurboGrafx 16 (but not the CD-ROM^2 System/TurboGrafx-CD)
|
|
- NEC SuperGrafx
|
|
- Bandai WonderSwan
|
|
- Bandai WonderSwan Color
|
|
|
|
Complete (though slightly outdated) documentation on higan is available
|
|
at: https://higan.readthedocs.io/en/stable/
|
|
|
|
*** Configuration:
|
|
|
|
The default profile directory (where platform system files, cheats and
|
|
shaders are located) is /usr/share/higan. If you want a personalized
|
|
profile, store your files in ~/Emulation, then higan will use this
|
|
directory instead.
|
|
|
|
First time users note: By default there are *no* control mappings. You'll
|
|
have to use Settings -> Input to map your preferred keyboard and/or
|
|
gamepad controls for each emulated system. Also, by default, there's
|
|
nothing 'plugged into' the emulated controller ports. In the menu bar,
|
|
click on the system name (e.g. Famicom, Super Famicom) -> Controller
|
|
Port 1 -> Gamepad (or whatever is required for the ROM you're running).
|
|
|
|
*** Build options:
|
|
|
|
- OpenAL is autodetected, and used if found. You can disable it with
|
|
OPENAL=no in the environment.
|
|
|
|
- OSS is disabled by default. If you need it, set OSS=yes in the environment.
|
|
|
|
- PulseAudio is enabled by default. You can disable it with PULSE=no in
|
|
the environment.
